I will answer it scientifically. Pardon the long answer.

When someone is hungry, there is a drop in glucose.
According to research, the drop of glucose in the brain also causes people to drop socially acceptable behavior, which makes them grumpy and irritable.
A study published recently (in 2014) says that this tendency to let go of socially acceptable behavior when hungry is expressed in greater intensity toward those with whom the hungry person is closest, such as one's spouse or friends.
A hungry person finds it hard, to some degree, to practice self-control because self-control requires energy from glucose, and a hungry person has dropping levels of glucose.
The study also explains that hunger causes the body to go into a glucose counter-regulatory response, which simply means that the brain instructs some organs to release hormones that will increase the level of
glucose in the bloodstream.
These include the stress hormone adrenaline.
Adrenaline is responsible for putting the body in a "fight or flight" mode when a person is caught in life-threatening situations. (Believe me, hunger is a life-threatening situation) grin
So the body copes with hunger by releasing adrenaline and putting it in a similar "fight or flight" mode, making a hungry person snap at others when he or she normally wouldn't.

This applies to both men and women. The reason why men appear to be more aggressive is that their metabolism of food is higher than that of women because of their biological make-up and also due to increased level of physical activity.
We all know that men generally engage in more physically exhausting activities than women.
Oh, you don't think so?
Who is usually called to lift the heavy stuffs around the house? Is it not the man? And you expect him not to be grumpy when hungry? Come on, he needs fuel! gringrin
