Psychobabble.............No, a very real effect. The brain needs testosterone to process spatial information. Women do have some testosterone, but not nearly as much as a man does. (A thought that, no doubt, horrifies the average, Oprah-cized, White, liberal male!) Men are thus more skilled at seeing objects in three dimensions. Women usually cannot imagine an object in three dimensions and see it rotating in space.

Babies who prefer looking at the mirror image are presumed to have mentally rotated the block arrangement, Thin, very thin.

You're better off telling them to go straight ahead to the corner with the BP station and then turn right at the light.True, for me anyway. I actually start to panic when someone gives me directions involving compass points.
And actually envisioning a finished house from a blueprint? I'm thinking Najavo code talkers.

Male superiority on mental rotation tasks may develop within a few months after birth I've noticed this phenomena. Men and women are different. Viva la difference!

The whole theory of gender feminism is based on their unshakable belief that there is no basic mental difference between the sexes. 'Tis true.
Yet, while refusing to accept the evidence that males excel in things like spatial co-ordination, they also seem to ignore the evidence that females excel over males in some areas. That doesn't seem to penetrate their thinking a bit.
It's a communistic mindset they have, no doubt about it.
