pianokid510 asked:


Hello. This is partly supposed to be comedic in nature but slightly serious too. I am a straight man and love women. I have met very intelligent girls in my 23 years of life. The thing is that even though women can be good at stuff, the majority of girls arent that good at things. Why do girls **** at video games? That has nothing to do with physical strength. Being good at checkers or video games is fully within their capabilities but for some reason still **** . Why when a guy looks at the stars , he wonders about things and shares histheories regarding life, and mysteries ,but a girl just looks and says How pretty. If there reason ? This is as nice as i can ask. I just saw a music band that had mainly female musicians, and it dawned on me like 98% of proffesional musicians are men, why?
hello. I see many nice girls got offended. I was afraid of this. I am not saying that women are inferior or have smaller brains. The question was
Even though women are just as smart , why do they **** at stuff? meaning, what is the reason they dont excel like they can being mentally equal? is it genetics? social ? is it lack of interest ? if it is, why? is it that they are programmed to be disinterested certain things ? so i apologize to all the ladies that were offended. The point is, that there is a clear difference , but why ? i have asked girls i know why they **** at games for example. Are they scared that we’ll clown them when they dont succeed at first ? i would love a girl that had similar interests and can beat me at SSB. thank you

    women are just for fun and to have more children they usually leave all the clever things to us… how many F1 drivers are women.. er there was 1 once a long time ago, her name was Davina Galica never won anything went into truck racing after being crap at F1, was crap there too

    women excel at being practical, and they can do more than one thing at a time.

    Maybe that’s ’cause the only girls you hang out with are stupid enough to ever consider talking to you.

    Wow, you are a typical sexist. I think maybe the strongest guy is stronger then the strongest girl in the world, but thats just because of how hormones work. There are girls stronger then guys (although thats gross). When a girl kicks my *** at a shooting range competition, I don’t feel immasculated, I feel attracted and impressed and maybe even turned on (lol) by her skill, and the fact that people like you don’t let century old stereotypes keep them from kicking ***.

    i am great at video games, excuse me lol
    we’re just wired differently
    we’re generally better at dancing
    there are probably more men in the music industry because it was more common for them to get into music when they were young
    where i’m from girls are doing better in school but guys are doing better in life in terms of sucess

    Men are clearly physically superior and can beat women into submission if they wanted to caveman style.

    We are also bigger risk takers and are smarter as a whole.

    Honestly…. can any of you even name three great inventions by women off the top of your head? …. and don’t tell me Marie Curie…. that is a discovery/cure, not an invention.

    Happy New Year!

    I’m sorry but I was not aware of the study conducted about what people think when they look at the stars.
    I must have been in the kitchen or knitting or looking at flowers.
    57% of college students are women. And that is a real stat. Not like your 98% of professional musicians bs.

    Women aproach life with a different view, they are no less intelegent, their inteligence quota lies in a different area to men.
    men will view something with a practical nature, women on the other hand see things more from an emitional point of view, if you want to successfully comunicate with a woman (and that is not meant to be an insult) then you must appeal to the emotional side of the event or thing.
    women are capable of all the things men are capable of, just using a different kind of intelegence to men, I think that makes women unique and trully interesting, because of this, a good relationship will always be interesting, and the candle will flicker, but will never burn out.

    It’s as simple as this, your not really looking, I personally know a lot of Women far more intelligent than me and (I have Always had Excellent Grades / Results in everything I have accomplished).
    There are a lot of Dumb ones as well, BUT in saying that THERE are a BLOODY lot of DUMB blokes as well.

    FOR EXAMPLE look at prisons in the US 97% are Black Males that are behind bars for Serious I mean Serious Crimes.

    What does that tell you EH???

    P.S. (Open your eyes a bit wider.)

    When it comes to things like games and such, it’s usually because men tend to be more logic minded where women tend to see the world from an emotional perspective. Obviously this doesn’t keep either *** from being good or bad at various things, but each gender has it’s strengths and weaknesses as a whole.

    It also has to do with socialization. Boys are taught to tinker and learn how to take things about and put them back together. Boys play with blocks and build stuff. Girls are taught to be caring and nurturing. They play with dolls and act out a variety of interpersonal relationships.

    I can’t answer you about musicians, but I think your point probably applies more to rock music which uses just a few instruments that are more traditionally played by men (guitars, drums, etc), rather than orchestra type music which uses a variety of instruments including some played more by women (like flutes, violins, etc).

    I beg to differ with you about video games, I am a woman and kicked **** in Unreal Tournament 2004, Half Life 2, The Theif series and others.

    About the stars, although, I recognize their beauty, like you, I am a thinker and ponder things such as the stars with great depth and curiosity.

    So, I can confirm there really are women out there who don’t fit the mold you are asking about here.

    About the music industry, I was a drummer, so I haven’t paid too much attention to how many women are in the field of music versus men, so I am not sure if I can help you there.

    And, no. Just in case you’re wondering, I am not a *******. Tomboy, yes.

    I think the best thing to do would be to try not generalize about women. Generalizing about people tends to close our minds.

    Keep in mind, too, a lot girls and even grown women, are afraid to show how intelligent they are because they think the guy they are with will feel threatened or intimidated. Many females are all too aware of the very fragile male ego and tread lightly.

    Just some food for thought fellow thinker.

    What - like childbirth? - not to mention *rearing* those children.

    It does depend on the skills woman far out way men in many areas of life’s skills.
    The medical answer and there is one by the way is that woman use a different area of their brain to men proved and known fact. In some woman they do use the other side of brain and the same for men they use the female side but is is down to brain usage and what is your excuse? ha ha

  17. ivelisse on July 6th, 2008 2:53 pm

    Who says? I’d say you are meeting the wrong women. Where are you at? Where do you meet these women?

    Have you thought about the fact that when we are looking at stars with a guy we might be interested in other things, like how great would it be if he kissed me right about now?

    Also, have you thought about the fact that we might not want to bruise your male egos when we play video games or pool or go bowling? I do it sometimes, depends on my date or my friend. If I am good at something and the man doesn’t seem to be, I always let the man win, at least a few times. I don’t want to hurt his ego (although I don’t want to seem like a delicate flower either). This past X-mas I played with the Nintendo Wii with my boyfriend. I beat him at Tennis and at Bowling, and he seemed a little down, so I suggested we played Baseball. Even though I am a good baseball player, I really **** at it on video games. He did much better at it than I did, boosting his ego and making him want to play with me again. So it was a technique I used to make him feel good and to ensure that he would play with me again.

    There are also some women who are not that competitive (like me), but there are others (I know a few) who will beat their husbands, boyfriends, male friends at whatever they can because the are extremely competitive.

    I don’t want to sound like what a lot of people would describe as a raging, man-hating feminist, although I am a feminist. But people still don’t get what women have to go through to get to where they want. And I am not just talking about bosses, or universities or the like. It could be with something as simple as the family. I decided not to marry the first guy I met. I am professional, I am about to get my PhD, I have been married, and I got divorced, I have had fun and have enjoyed my life. But the first thing that family members ask is: Do you have a boyfriend? Are you going to marry again/soon/him? You are in your 30s, don’t you want to have kids? And I come from a family where the women are very strong and very progressive, who graduated from the universityand had careers (and I’m talking about grandmother and her sisters). But, why are they asking me all these questions? Why can’t they ask me if I published something? If I am getting tenure? If I talk about politics, discussing it the same way a man from the family would, they look at me with disapproval. Because nice girls and decent women don’t get involved in these type of discussions. Women should go to talk to other women about children, their husbands, celebrities, fashion, how pretty whatever is, etc.
    I have seen young women being afraid of showing that they are too intelligent to the men they know. Which is a shame we do that.
    And then, we get married and priorities change. A female professional musician (not a celebrity) will probably have a harder time struggling her career and her family life. Will the husband stay with the kids every single night while she goes to play her saxophone in clubs and bars in town. And will he take care of the kids, whether by being a stay at home dad or at least by taking care of them when she is touring with the band? These are all things we have to consider.

    Anyway, it’s late and I have to wake up in, oh my God, an hour! Now, that is just plain stupidity on my part!

    Good luck finding the woman you need and want!

    Hint: you might want to look somewhere else if you are not finding the ones that attract you mentally…

  18. Flair on July 7th, 2008 3:03 pm

    Well as with everything, there are exceptions to your claim.
    But I agree that many times girls tend to be more emotionally enclined and men more technical.

    Maybe one reason we girls aren’t great at video games or things like that is because we don’t practice as much as you guys.
    Are you guys good at taking care of babies? How about comforting a heart-broken person?
    The majority of girls are better at those things than men.

    From your point of view men are better at a lot more things than women, but from a woman’s point of view, we are alot better at more things than you guys. lol
    see?
    Neither of us is better, we just have our different categories of talent we fit into.

    gosh I feel like I should say amen or something lol.
