An interesting book on this subject:

What could he be thinking? : how a man's mind really works / by Gurian, Michael. St. Martin's Press, 2003. Call #: 305.31

Subject Topic: Men -- Psychology. Interpersonal relations.

Summary: Addresses the concerns of women about the men in their lives, presenting a profile of the male psyche to shed light on the nuances of men's actions and thoughts in modern culture.

****************

I thought this was very informative, regarding how men's brains work - just as well as women's :-), but with different objectives. Example: "Why can't he find anything in the refrigerator?" "Because his brain identifies size and movement of objects more than shape and color. Therefore, he can't see the mustard, because it isn't moving."

I don't recommend this without reservations, but it's VERY interesting, when it sticks with what can be observed using the latest technology, about the functioning of men's and women's brains.

I have a different theory on that --- if it's not in a form ready to eat he can't find it.
