witch Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 Nah - doesnt ring true No male would ever be able to understand what he had done. Or string together a sentence about feelings beginning: "Is it something I said?"
marco84 Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 In the same respect, no female would ever admit anything was wrong until the man had asked at least 6more times and another 3hours had passed.
Jake Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 All I want to know is why that guy is allowed out of his cage
mrforgetful Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 My gf has suggested I read.....Men are From Mars, Women are from Venus. It's surprisingly good and worth reading!
elsiegee40 Posted June 19, 2007 Posted June 19, 2007 You guys aren't supposed to understand... it's how we ensure our superiority!
Guest metalmonkey Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Just before my wedding my father came to me with his one and only advice for married life. He said... "Son, many good men have gone completely insane trying to understand women. So don't try."
localzuk Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 I dunno, it works the other way too - women don't understand men (but they think they do). At least most men just admit they don't understand women...
Skoggmeiger Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 My gf has suggested I read.....Men are From Mars, Women are from Venus. It's surprisingly good and worth reading! I'm afraid you have been seduced by the dark side. Soon you'll be telling us that you've been reading 'Chicken Soup for The Soul', and admiring the different variaties of curtains on offer, instead of wondering what the footy scores are. YOU MUST RESIST!!!
limbo Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 I have one word to say on the male / female divide - cusions. i do not mean the useful ones that make up the integral part of a chair or a sofa - but those ones whose sole existence seems to be to site on a chair or sofa until someone wants to sit down, at which point they are cast aside. Expensive clutter. Women are obsessed with them and men do not even give them a second thought.
localzuk Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 @limbo - that isn't strictly true. On a large, plain looking sofa, cushions can 'liven up' the room. The same goes for any ornament. Now, don't get me wrong - I wouldn't have cushions out of preference, but out of a desire to not have a living room that was dull or unwelcoming...
e_g_r Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Cushions on the bed, only good for throwing on the floor and falling over....grrrr
limbo Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 @localzuk - but if you are in a room that has a sofa and no-one is sitting on, or about to sit on, said sofa then what kind of room are you in?
limbo Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 @localzuk - but if you are in a room that has a sofa and no-one is sitting on, or about to sit on, said sofa then what kind of room are you in? A sofa showroom perhaps!?!?
bossman Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 There are 2 logics to both male and female: Male logic: forwards and backwards Female logic: Goes sideways So the lesson is "non computability" and that men and women are only put on this earth for one reason and that is the procreation of the species. Here endeth the first and last lesson.
Guest richard Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 There is no point in trying to understand women as they don't even understand themselves
witch Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Oh for goodness sake! People are people They may look at things differently sometimes, and perhaps women are more in touch with their feelings - and care more about understanding others, but basically all that is needed is the ability to really try and see an issue from someone else's point of view - without accusatory remarks, or trying to score points, or whatever. Over the years, I have met many men who were good at empathy (one of my best friends is a bloke) and many women who were not! If you continue to subscribe to the myths surrounding male/female behaviour, the problem just gets worse! Those of you men who have a good relationship with women, be they mother, sister, partner or friend will know that it is all worthwhile in the end. Of course, if you cannot be bothered to try to understand others (or maybe, like a possible 75% of the male population, you suffer from some degree of Asbergers or Autism) then you will always struggle, and eventually you will be a sad old git sitting over a drink bemoaning the shortcomings of the opposite sex And yes, this does apply to women as well, who can be really evil about men! Here endeth the lesson The counsellor is..IN!!
limbo Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Don't women over react? (runs and hides from witch until the dusk of time!)
Firefly_Transport Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Don't women over react? (runs and hides from witch until the dusk of time!) ::Cast sidelong look at the USA and the several wars started by George W:: Women over-react?
localzuk Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 eventually you will be a sad old git sitting over a drink bemoaning the shortcomings of the opposite sex eventually? old??
Guest richard Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 and eventually you will be a sad old git sitting over a drink bemoaning the shortcomings of the opposite sex I'm already a sad old git according to some of my friends.
witch Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Oh, you'd better run, Limbo but; the dusk of time? I'm a witch - at dusk I emerge from my server cave and fly free!
witch Posted June 20, 2007 Posted June 20, 2007 Women, Women, Women....The beta version of MEN! Now let's see: We are stronger at birth (far less female infant mortality) We live longer We get less heart disease For most causes of death - rates are higher for men than women Women can multitask, most men cannot Women will sometimes admit making a mistake. The last man who admitted he was wrong was General Custer Men forget everything, women remember everything. That's why men need instant replays in sports. They've already forgotten what happened. Women have an eight-lane superhighway for processing emotion, while men have a small country road (comment from a neuropsychiatrist) WOMEN DON'T LET GO OF AN ARGUMENT UNTIL THEY WIN!
