Are Men Just Defective Women?
Whoa! My 3rd straight post in a week! Hehe…nwei I just read an interesting article from one of my favorite cartoonist…a good read! ^___^
(feel free to comment!)

I’ve noticed that men generally believe they are “different” from
women, whereas women generally believe men are “defective” women. You
can see that perspective in the comments to my last post.
90% of the gender difference seems to be the male preference for
compartmentalizing thoughts while women think everything is somehow
connected. Here are some phrases you rarely hear from women:
“I didn’t wrap your present because you’d just throw away the wrapping anyway.”
“Let’s skip Valentine’s Day this year so we don’t miss CSI.”
“Your personality is grating, but I’d do you in a heartbeat.”
“Bob died? Huh. What’s for dinner?”
No guy would ever say those things around a women either, but not
because he isn’t thinking them. We guys have learned how to blend in
and talk like women when it’s necessary. It feels like being a German
spy during WWII and you’re always worried someone will ask you a
question about the Yankees.
If you’re male you have to do a lot of internal editing before you
let anything fly out of your mouth. The best way to filter is to ask
yourself how a woman would react to what you’re about to say. Here’s a
little test to see if you know how this works.
Suppose a male sees a car that’s a hideous shade of green and he
blurts out to a friend “That is one ugly-ass car!” Now Using the Theory
of Gender Compartmentalization, match the friend’s gender with the most
likely response:
A. “Holy $%#*&, that color is just wrong for a car.”
B. Silence, while thinking “He hates my green sweater.”
