Just found out a guy who works for me is being a git

"Women's logic" another classic that's thrown about.

WTF is women's logic?
Actually, there's another point to be made in response to this. There are subtle differences in the way men and women communicate, probably due to social factors. The best explanation I've seen is this:

When a woman asks you if you're hungry, they don't mean "are you hungry", they mean "I'm hungry, can we eat soon please?". Men (I am reliably informed) don't get this and it's probably a source of some confusion and occasional conflict.
 
A couple of pricks or points of view?

Soggy biscuit is on Johnny. Looks like you could end up with a mouthful off someone on this thread after all ;)

'Women don't mean what they say' shocker?

If they ask 'are you hungry', why don't they just mean that, ie, asking the person if they're hungry.

p.s. that sounds like a huge crock.
 
If my gf wants me to do something she always says "do you want..."

do you want to take the rubbish out?

well, not particularly, since you're asking.
 
This seems to have gone a bit "men mars women venus" now :hmm:
It's nothing to do with Mars and Venus. It's socialisation. I didn't believe it was that stark a difference when I read it but it's surprising how reaction from both sexes tends to confirm that it is kinda true.

Telling Laurie on you!

I believe a lot of women are more intuitive than men. Especially mums. Mums have some sort of sixth sense thing going on that instinctively know.

I've learnt not to say 'do you want' when food shopping.

Why, is it because Mr D is prone to throwing any ol' shite into the trolley regardless if it is needed or not? :hmm:

Dunno, but I do know Mars is lovely :D

You would say that though wouldn't you :rolleyes:

And I've mentioned it before, you don't want to annoy mothers because of the left hook they develop from carrying babies round all day.
 
I don't think it's instinct firky; I suppose there could be something on the missing chromosomal leg that men don't have but nurture explains it, I think. Most women have been brought up to know how to run a household with the expectation that one day they would have to. We're censured for being aggressive or asserting our own needs and rewarded for being nurturing. We're used to building plans around the needs of others. It's not so much that it comes naturally as these modes of communication being part of the role that is thrust upon us.

Are you hungry? No.

Do you fancy these veggies? No.

Useless. We have a reason for asking these questions. I've stopped asking open-enders. :D
