I don't. I'm pretty introverted though, so I figure extroverts, who are boisterous anyway, would be more prone to raising their voices when angry or otherwise agitated.
Rarely I've come across quiet, introverted people who have nasty temper tantrums that result in yelling, throwing punches, breaking things... anyone that unpredictable is a bit unnerving.
I lived with a man who not only yelled when frustrated, he threw temper tantrums...ripping a textbook through its binding and throwing it, putting his fist through a glass fronted cabinet, punching walls, once, he snapped the turn signal indicator lever off my new car, because he didn't want to ask directions and GPS was wrong...I came to find him out of control and infantile. Express your emotions like an adult, not like a child who is developmentally inequipped to hold back inappropriately impulsive behavior.

Beyond childish! I've yelled and screamed, but this is definitely out of control! I'm learning to keep my temper in check, as I've had high blood pressure and I darn sure don't need a stroke or heart attack!
I have a bad temper and I'm known to raise my voice and have been called on it. But do you yell/scream when you're angry?
I've only lost my temper to the point of yelling twice in my adult life. And the recipients of said tirades still remember the events in amazing detail and occasionally bring it up -- with a glazed sort of fascination on ther face, accompanied by a slight twitch :-) Possibly because I'm normally very soft-spoken -- it did get their attention, I must say.
Otherwise, I tend to go for cold and icily polite, with a dash of virulent sarcasm thrown in.

You're right up my alley.
