In other news, women wear the majority* of pantyhose and heels.



*But certainly not all!

[jesusfreak]

you know I would have to argue about women being worse parking than men... Being here in Afghanistan I have seen some pretty craptacular parking by both sex's and I would have to say its about equal.

From the lead scientist in the study regarding how we think of women:

""These prejudices exist and as a scientist I decided the find out if they are true or based on myth," she told the Mail on Sunday. "

Hey, lady, it ain't a prejudice if it's a demonstrable fact. Then it's just recognizing truth and acting accordingly.

An anecdotal bit: my family got a new (to us) car about two weeks ago. A 2008 Prius. (love it by the way.) The first day my wife drove it she returned home with both hubcaps on the right side of the care damaged and all scratched up where she had either parked to close to a curb or made a right hand turn to tight crashing the wheels in to the curb. She didn't even remember doing it.

Crazy women drivers!

Love the quote at the end:

"I don't think that feminism or the cause of women is in any way set back by these findings. It only proves what previous studies about the spatial differences between men and women have shown.

"Besides, it is not as if there was a massive failing by women. It is just about parking – not the triumph of men over women."

insecure often?

Oh so that's why dames keep running into me.

Oh wait that is just merely my handsomeness that disorients them.

Impossible!

I make eye contact, flash a smile, I provoke a blushing on the fine dame. I try to evade the señoritas, but they somehow keep bumping into me after the eye contact. Believe me, I do!

[Darth Ovious]

Impossible!

Really?

I make eye contact,

Shouldn't you be keeping your eyes on the road?

flash a smile,

Scarring women isn't going to make them better drivers ya know.

I provoke a blushing on the fine dame.

If you mean that you make her screm in horror then I understand.

I try to evade the señoritas,

So is this when you realize that when you took your eyes off the road and looked at the dame you went travelling towards her in a collision course?

but they somehow keep bumping into me

More like you deliberately bump into them. Did you learn that one off of Manwe? Is it a good technique for picking up phone numbers? You do realize that she is only giving it to you for insurance purposes, yes?

after the eye contact.

Which you first established by your own admission.

Believe me, I do!

Don't you worry, I know exactly what happens.

[Cow Poke]

If you don't like the way I drive, stay off the sidewalk.

[Darth Ovious]

If don't like the way I drive then you don't need to worry since I don't have a license yet.

[Carrikature]

If you don't like the way I drive, stay off the sidewalk.

Turns out they were pulling over everyone driving down that particular stretch of sidewalk. That's profiling, and that's wrong...

So their statistics all come from the same area?

[Andius]

Really?

Shouldn't you be keeping your eyes on the road?

Oh, I should have clarified the context, I am referring to the situations when I am out walking and hot driving.

Scarring women isn't going to make them better drivers ya know.

Scarring!? Impossible! Do you have any idea how tough it is to find hiding places when my radiant handsomeness is unleashed at the streets?

If you mean that you make her screm in horror then I understand.

Bah, tis just jealousy rearing it's head in you.

So is this when you realize that when you took your eyes off the road and looked at the dame you went travelling towards her in a collision course?

Please... as much as I appreciate fine women, my safety in the road is still priority.

More like you deliberately bump into them. Did you learn that one off of Manwe? Is it a good technique for picking up phone numbers? You do realize that she is only giving it to you for insurance purposes, yes?

Oh come now! Delibarate bumping!? You must be confusing me with one of those desperate bachelors out there. Or worse... a shadownoob....

Which you first established by your own admission.

Guilty as charged for being ever so full of awesomeness and radiant beauty.

Don't you worry, I know exactly what happens. :hehe

You and I know that consorts of the Shadow can never match my charm, and seek to discredit me.
