We have been conditioned to believe emotions are irrational, feminine, and something to be suppressed. But rationality and emotionality are not mutually exclusive. In fact, they are intertwined. Without emotions, we would not have any motivation towards rationality.
Our assumption that emotions are irrational tends to refer to our reactions to the emotion, rather than the emotion itself.
Rationality is not emotionless. Emotions are not completely irrational.
