What is the origin of the idiom "shouting match" and when to use it?

The idiom "shouting match" originated from the literal act of engaging in a heated argument or disagreement that involves loud and intense shouting between two or more individuals. Figuratively, this expression is used to convey the idea of a confrontational verbal confrontation where emotions run high and rational discourse is abandoned.
