I’m in no way saying women are superior to men. At all. I said in my own experiences this is what I’ve encountered. And if you want to drill that down a bit more, what I’m really saying is this how my husband tackles ‘fixing’ things. And I mean repairing things around the house. Now, say we’re talking finance and investments, he will smoke me!
I’m not painting any one person, group, or situation with a broad paintbrush.

Sir if I’m in a life/death situation that requires a decision RIGHT XXXXing NOW, there wouldn’t be a delay in my decision making skills. Based on my earlier reply, that wasn’t the type of situation I was discussing.
AGAIN, I’m not painting any one gender, person, or group with a broad paintbrush.

Your words:

The downfall is that ‘said men’ don’t take time to think through how to tackle the problem to ensure a fail proof outcome-they literally tackle it instantly without much forethought.

My emphasis. There is no such thing as a fail proof outcome. Failure is always a possibility. Anyone who says otherwise is selling something.

You are itching for an argument. Its ironic that you are basing your argument on women operating purely on emotion: each of your replies read ‘p!$$ed, p!$$ed, p!$$ed’. If this isn’t something that you feel applies to you, then why are you offended by it and feel the need to insult this man who is merely stating his viewpoint? Its Friday man, have a drink!

Almost half of babies are born to unwed mothers. Financial risk to her and children.

Adult sex differences on a decision-making task previously shown to depend on the orbital prefrontal cortex.

A critical review of sex differences in decision-making tasks: focus on the Iowa Gambling Task.

Women don’t have a male ego that impels them to continuously have to prove their erection power.

Yep, we build things all the time!
Erect buildings, erect bridges, houses, towers, everything!

You’re welcome.

BTW, your comment really highlights two different approaches to a problem.

One is to formulate a detailed plan before starting work. The other is to rely on training, experience and mindset to guide a real-time solution. The former can lead to difficulties addressing the unexpected. The latter can lead to carelessness. Balancing the two is wisdom. Greater wisdom is realizing that no two people will have the same balance.

IMHO.

Mine was equipped to erect several varieties of crane. And those little square nuts with no lockwashers really stank on ice.

Yeah, the structure didn’t remain stable long after any amount of play - had to perform near constant maintenance on anything you build.

You are right, but the article was discussing behavior.

Shouldn't that title be "Men really are more stupider than women, research shows"

Ah, but that would imply that women are stupid to begin with. Can't have that, you know.

It's just a review of the Darwin awards -- and they are a gag.

I believe that many of the Darwin award stories are a bit too pat not to have been enhanced to make them funnier. . . if they are not just downright fictional. I've found several I know for a fact were enhanced. . .
