lol, ok not better. Just different :P I did however find the findings of this study interesting:
Men really do think differently to women...and have a better sense of direction finds study | Mail Online
Basically it says that generally men have better spatial awareness than women, therefore allowing them an easier time reading maps and (ideally) not getting lost as much. The reason I find it interesting is because the differences are not due to upbringing or other environmental factors, but genes and the way the male brain works.
Without putting to much thought in it this morning, I think it might play to a time when human males might have had to go out for miles hunting for food, while the females stayed closer to home. The males would have had to find their way home if they found food or not. (Hence, Rush hour traffic and the stay at home mom was invented...)
Another semi-related study I read about some time back said that the reason males were able to tolerate higher levels alcohol better than females was due to the way the livers processed the alcohol. If I remember correctly, the male liver was able to process the alcohol's much faster than females, and getting on though the system at a faster rate.
I've just always found these studies funny in a way. Out of all the stereotypes, some of them are actually scientifically viable.
