Survey: were your turbulent as a child and aggressive as a teenager ?

I was always a very turbulent and violent child.
I always carried a belt around with me, with toy weapons attached onto it and wanted to fight all the time. During teenage years, i was one of a handful of young guys who got into fights. As a young adult, played sports like rugby, judo, would only watch violent movies and wanted to see blood. My best friend was always busy with pornography. All i cared about was violence, or so it seemed lol.

It's funny because, my surname in gaelic means 'Big Boar'. Cullachmhòr. The kid i got into a fight with at school, his surname was Mc Cullach. 'Son of a Boar'. Ironically, i just realised this the other day, and it happened when we were in 9th grade. Hopefully my test results will arrive shortly.

In fact, a 2009 study found that Pakistani men belonging to hg R1a or R2 were considerably more aggressive than other Pakistani men (who belonged mainly to hg G, H, J2, and L).

Perhaps it is misstated in their abstract, but the last sentence indicates that R2 and R1a1 were associated with lower self-reported aggression scores. They also state the differences were not significant (presumably statistically).
 
from what my family says and many people i know i would be a 5- very aggressive

i have Y DNA R1b1a2a1a1 i don't know what subclade i put my haplotype into a subclade predictor it said i am most likely German subclade R1b S21 or Italic and Hallete Gaulic R1b s28

and since it seems u want information Maciamo i will give u an idea of my personality and the environment i grow up in

as a very little kid like 2-5 i was very stubborn and very faithful to my dad i always though he was the strongest person on earth throughout my whole life i felt that i was agressive and always kind off had that reputation i was defintley trubulent as a child and very agressive after puberty but i was also a cry baby as a little kid and could not take to much emotional pain and was scared of my brothers but i a;ways felt need to be agressive but my envirmonts taught me not to be and i never saw hat real fighting was until i became a teenager i became very intreested in my celtic and germanic ancestors who where known as agressive warriors and i heard their descrptions as having red hair and loud voices and being very confident, agressive and all of their traits seemed to have matched me so i wanted to be more like them with out knowing it i even started to fight the way Romans described Celts i would give an extremly loud war cry and grunts before i had fist fights with my brothers and i would try to fight like a crazy Celt my brothers and parents though there was something wrong with me i taught myself to resist all pain through angre and passion when fighting when i broke my hand attempting to punch my brother i did not feel i thing i felt like to be a man u had to be fearless of knives swords guns breaking bones i also was excited to find someone to fight who had a weapon and wished i could go back to ancient Celts and fight Romans when i thought a intruder was in my house i would get a basball bat and go nuts and scream extremly loud grunts and war cry i beat my chest stomped the steps screaming stuff like get of of my house i am not afraid of you the neighbors called my house in complaint i got to addicted to fighting and it was unhealthy

since i was a little kid i felt like i was suppose to be a big and over power people but i could not express it tilll i was exposed to it and went through puberty

i have always had a problem with quitting to early and not being able to suck it up when u have to do something u dont want to do

i would definable classify my father as a 5 he is more aggressive than me and very very good at doing what he does not wantto and not quitting all my brothers deifntley have a very aggressive side and all of us have grown upp in differnt ways even thought we are brothers my dads brother has gone to jail many times for bar fights and my dad says he grew up in kind off a white trash environment my grandpa also had a very agressive side alot like my dad but i cant really speak for him because i did not grow up with him like i did with my dad my dad says he is peacful and nice to people but he can get very angre quikley

from what my family says my great grandpa was also very aggressive, shy, and grumpy and did some criminal acts of violence i cant not explain same with his dad they both grew up on farms
.

i think everyone has an aggressive side which can count as a 5 and it has nothing to do with y dNA haplogroups

western men before the 1950's where more agressive than modern western men

men in the 1960's many did not join before the draft and when the draft came they protested even though america was fighting for the freedom of south vietmanese aginast communist

american men in the civlil war volunterred for the union and confederite army over 90% of union soldiers where volunterres pretty much all southern men from 18-50 fought and they did not complain that much and war back then was more grusome and close fighting with knifes

today i think people are trained to be to aggressive and it is unhealthy that is why blacks and Hispanics are on average more aggressive than white Americans because they grow up differently white Americans are taught to be very unagressive and grow up more soft also because white people in the western world when they identify themselves racially they fell they are suppose to be the less aggressive smart people

i think certain people have natural aggressiveness inside of them but their culture need to allow that aggression to show alot of times it will still show like there is a guy in my school he thinks he is naturally gay he trys to act like a girl while girls talk with a normal natural tone he is always talking with an extreme famine tone which shows his environment and culture taught him to act less male like but he is actulley very aggressive and threats people alot he yells and alot of times acts like a man without knowing it so even though he has been trained or trained himself to be a women he still shows his natural male side

but some natural parts of peoples personalities might be destroyed by other parts if over time they for some reason fell like they should show the other side eventually other personalty traits wont show so the most stereotypical Asian nerd might have been like atlia the Hun if he grow up with ancient mongols

so i think with some people the agressive side might be destroyed by other personality traits because of certain things overtime that made them want to show the other trait so i dont think these studies that show peoples natural agression are completely accurate maybe if the black gangster grew up in the environment the typical white westerner does that aggression would not show at all

maybe their are certain traits that are never replaced by other traits maybe they should find those traits then do the study
 
I am very friendly to people who haven't harmed me in any way. But if someone starts a conflict for no other reason than to gratify their ego, I get pissed.
 
3 - normal, average

It's easily noticeable that populations high in R1b and/or R1a tend to be aggressive, expansionist, always thirsty for new conquests abroad etc. Examples: Rome in Antiquity, France/England/Germany crusaders in the Middle Ages, basically all Western European nations in the ages of discoveries and colonialism, Tsarist (and then Soviet) Russia, USA, etc.

Then again, you have +80% R1b Ireland, which has never exactly been an agressive country (though maybe out of sheer geographic isolation and also the very long English subjugation of the Irish)
 
People with E definitely have the "shortest fuse" in a conflict. Anything recently out of Africa is generally more aggressive, example: Killer Bees, Killer Buffalo etc.
 
I belong to Y Haplogroup I1 and would describe myself as falling in category 2 - more peaceful than average. Other people have described me as calm and easygoing, so this is not just my opinion. I think that I am more peaceful than most of my relatives on my paternal side, so this cannot be attributed to Y-haplogroup alone, although it might play a part.

Looking at my extended family, my maternal grandfather, uncles, and cousins are R1b (based on an uncle who has tested). Comparing my maternal relatives with my paternal relatives, the men on my mother's (R1b) side do tend to be more quick tempered and confrontational than the men on my father's (I1) side. However, although they are more quick tempered, they generally do not become angry enough that they "explode" or lose their temper completely. The men on the paternal side of my family, on the other hand, tend to be more easygoing and are less prone to losing their temper, but also seem to be more explosive on the occasions that they do become angry. I do not know how much of this, if any, is an I1 vs R1b thing, but it is true that these differences apply mainly to the men on each side of my family. I do not see these differences in my female relatives, which supports the idea that the Y Haplogroup might have something to do with it.
 
As far as i know the Y-chromosome doesn't influence aggressiveness.

The anger genes i know of are located on chromosome 20 and 6, and not on the Y-Chromosome.

I’m R1b aggression and fighting is all I remember when I was young I was in wrestling and boxing my family follows suit one story of my grandpa was he drove up to some jocks he didn’t like for some reason told his friend he’s gonna go fight them and if to many jump in pull the gun out all the males are 5! R-M405 or U106
 
I can be quite aggressive when I’m angry but laidback when relaxed, Mom is the same way. I’d probably give my teenage self a 4.
My voice tends to mimic other’s tone before I can catch myself; it happens when I’m in a tense situation or Choir practice. But I’m no fighter, I have learned how to use my wits to get out of situations.
 
Y-H2, and very disruptive from age 4yrs onwards, first day at school, I escaped and ran away, had major problems attending all schools, even set fire to one and tried to blow it up in my teens..lol , and very aggressive, still trying to cope with it....lol
 
My Husband and 2 sons-I1: Husband = 3; Older son = 2; Younger son = 4

I have to say, I noticed a large difference with aggressiveness of my sons in the womb, and even discussed it with a amnio doc at Wash U, who agreed after numerous attempts at getting a sample with my 2nd son. So I do believe it is genetic, but maybe not HG

Father and 3 brothers-R-U106: All were probably a 2, except my father might have been a 3.
