I can only speak for the Canada Geese because they are the species I am studying. First, not all Canadas are aggressive. The elders and the males are the most protective of the group. And the term to use is "protective" not "aggressive". They are protecting their families much the same way a father or grandfather would protect his children. But the level of protectiveness depends on the individual. Geese who are used to people won't be so sensitive because they know what people are and that they will not hurt them. Country geese will be the opposite.
If a goose hisses at you he is telling you to back off because he doesn't know you and that frightens him. Now, that doesn't mean that you should go up to him and give him a big hug and tell him everything will be alright! When you get the hiss take a few steps back and stand still. Wait a minute or two and when he realizes you pose him no threat he will calm down. And tossing him a treat or two at that moment may not just ease tensions but may start a wonderful friendship!
The beak on a male it is kind of Grayish and on the female their is kind of a bright orangish at the back closest to the head I only know this about the toulouse breed I'm not sure about other breeds but they might be the same.

a gander
Well baby Geese are called Goslings pronounced with a "z".
It really depends on the gender of the geese. Overall, "geese" is what we call the species, but when we are talking about a specific goose, if it is a boy goose, we call it and gander, and if a girl goose, we'll just call it a "goose."
Geese are known to be territorial and aggressive towards perceived threats, which can include snakes. While geese may harass or attack snakes that come too close to their nest or territory, they do not actively seek out snakes to kill them.
geese is the plural noun for that species the male is called a gander the female is called a goose
The counterpart to a goose is the gander. Goose is the word used specifically for female geese. Ganders are the male geese.
The word "goose" refers to a female of the species, OR may be used as a generic reference to all geese.
An "aggressive."
Female Canada geese are called "geese," while males are referred to as "ganders." Both sexes are part of the species Branta canadensis, with females typically being slightly smaller than males. Their young are called "goslings."
If there is another female around she can get domanate of her surroundings. A female pit in heat can be aggressive and even more so if she has has a litter recently.
well yes they do, do to their family
