The answer is the same levels of physiological arousal but less emotional expression than women.
One psychological advantage that men had over women in general is that men tend to be more stable under psychological distress.
The advantage that women had on the other hand is that women generally able to pick up more non-verbal cues that individual give under distress compared to men.
