Most arguments with women are petty and not substantial enough to even hold on to as resentment. In this scenario usually cooler heads prevail. Walk away from argument, return for civil discourse.
You're correct in saying "most" arguments. The ones that are worth getting upset about are worth fighting for. I'm not talking about physical combat, but there's nothing wrong with having a passionate argument over something important.
If it's something worth getting angry about, I find it's better to just hash it out and get it over with. Otherwise it may create resentment and future hostility.
Post-argument sex is pretty great too
