Is there some scientific reason for feeling emotions in your stomach area?
You know the phrase, "butterflies in my stomach"
Excitement, Fear, Anxiety, Jealousy, Anger. Why do they manifest in your stomach?'
Didn't know what board this what be relevant on.

Its called the enteric nervous system, basically, you have similar type of neurons as you do in your brain in your gut.

Your body diverts blood (and therefore energy) away from your digestive system during those situations in order to maximize efficiency for limb movements. It's a downstream effect of the fight-or-flight response.
Good question. What about when you get butterflies in your butthole? What does that mean? :3

That doesn't answer the OP.

Are you retarted? A large part of your nervous system responsible for those type emotions resides in your gut, which is the very reason why you literally feel them in your gut

OP here. Thanks guys, learned something new.
Technically your nervous system covers your whole body. It's divided into the central nervous system in your brain and spinal column and peripheral nervous system covering all the rest.

How much of my nervous system was destroyed during circumcision?
iirc it has something to do with your fight or flight response. If you're getting into a high stress situation your body will be like "hurr durr i need to empty out" and prepares to do that. i'm probably wrong but fuck it
