Why is it that men become so angry when according to them, they are not having enough sex? Are there medical evidence to support their behaviour?

  I think that's not only a gross generalization, it's also a gross oversimplification of the issue. Most people become agitated (not angry, there's a difference) when they are not receiving enough sex. Frequency is different between men and women, and even more variation in a particular gender. http://www.tandfonline.com/doi/abs/10.1080/0092623X.2011.560531 That is is a study reporting dissatisfaction in a relationship based on surveys of men and women. It is worth noting that 2/3 of the women who were dissatisfied with their sex lives wanted MORE sex, not less. 
  
  The study also shows that age may also play a role in dissatisfaction. Point is, it is not only men who become dissatisfied.
  
  Here is another study: http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/j.1743-6109.2007.00765.x/full

  "Conclusions.  The GBSS reports the sexual needs and desires of men and women worldwide. Erectile function and the effect of ED on aspects of the sexual experience emerged as the most pressing concerns among male participants. Mulhall J, King R, Glina S, and Hvidsten K. Importance of and satisfaction with sex among men and women worldwide: Results of the Global Better Sex Survey. J Sex Med 2008;5:788–795."

  I have to agree with amw0301 on this one “I think that's not only a gross generalization, it's also a gross oversimplification of the issue. Most people become agitated (not angry, there's a difference) when they are not receiving enough sex.

  I also believe believe that due to our makeup (men vs women) the desire has different levels for each individual. Where some may have a high sex drive and others couldn't care less. It could also been the period in a man's life where his libido is high. I was speaking to my mate about what makes him so ready and will at anytime and he say one he is attracted to me (which makes me feel really good) and second he say he has this feeling that he needs to release.

  So in other word I would take it as a compliment that your man want to be with you. Maybe if this is your partner we are talking - you guys can discuss the frequency and come to a happy median.

  Thanks for the responses and yes to some extent I have to agree that the statement could be deemed exaggerated. There is however the view according to many of my colleagues that men never say no. As a result we were wondering if their makeup is the detemining factor. Yes, I also agree that both parties need to discuss what each  could give taking into consideration career types, hours spent caring for kids etc.

  "There is however the view according to many of my colleagues that men never say no."  This is also a generalization.  I was married to a man who OFTEN said no.  I'd go literally 4-5 MONTHS without any intimate physical contact from him (sex, holding, even a kiss). 

  For some men (perhaps many of them) sex is not just for physical release.  Many want to express their love & affection for their mate this way.  It is a truly intimate way to show how much they care & to be told no is quite the rejection.  Think about the times you yourself have been rejected...  How did it make you feel?
