Is it just a men thing shouting at the telly ?

I shout when my team plays, I love football and I'm very passionate. So no it's not just a 'man' thing.
I also shout out the answers to quiz programmes and when I get frustrated with people giving wrong answers.

Mine didn't shout but he did mansplain all the way through
?

Oh, spoke too soon - he's shouting at the TV now, France -v- Ireland!
He doesn't think Ireland's going to win but they have to as they beat Wales.
I presume that has some logic.
