Every grown man has been in a situation where his girlfriend is wrong and he is right. Still, an argument ensues and everything starts -- the griping, the arguing, the complaining, and her complete refusal to believe, for even a second, that she just might be wrong. It's not because we are completely inept, but simply because we are in the company of obviously superior individuals that we refer to as our girlfriends or wives. Right? Wrong! They may be just as smart as us, but when was the last time you saw a woman make a decision based on logical reasoning? Men Are Smarter Than Women The fact of the matter is that when it comes to making decisions, men and women use very different approaches to drawing conclusions. A scientific study conducted by the Center For Women's Business in 1994, revealed that 53% of female business owners emphasize "right brain" thinking, which means that they tend to stress creativity and sensitivity when dealing with decision-making issues. On the other hand, over 70% of male business owners emphasize "left brain" thinking. This style stresses the use of analytical skills, processing information methodically and developing procedures, which all make for a strong decision-making technique. Most men use logic, tangible evidence, and plain old problem-solving techniques. Many women, it seems, rely more on their creative and intuitive side, in the process of coming to the conclusion that they are right. Many women often allow emotions to determine the outcome of their decisions and still, somehow, never seem to be wrong. So, seeing how they are always right, why is it that men can't use that same optimistic philosophy when engaging in an argument? Well, let me just say that you can. As a matter of fact, the number one reason that you should say you're right is because you probably are. Don't let any woman convince you otherwise. Let's face it; when it comes down to it, women are more concerned with the fact that they may lose face or suffer a blow to their egos, whereas men simply want to get the facts straight. There's no way we can ever be wrong... Men Can't Be Wrong I'm sure you've been in a situation where your woman kept arguing even when she knew she was wrong. And, as the situation progressed and eventually turned into an argument, she still refused to back down and fess up to the fact that her logic was flawed. At this point, you know that if you don't take the blame for things, the state of affairs can only escalate to something worse. Then why do you take the fall? While you do so to avoid a potential argument, which is somewhat of a noble act, looking at the bigger picture clearly shows that you are only setting yourself up for a lifetime of being told that you don't know what you're talking about. Assert yourself and stand your ground. Let her know that you disagree and that you're not going to have your opinion pushed aside. In the long run, she will only respect you more for it. Worth Fighting For When deciding when you are going to let her think she is right, choose your battles wisely. One thing you can do is set a predetermined quota of times in which you will admit defeat and allow her to think she's right. For example, say that you will let her get away with it 10 times a year, so when the eleventh argument arises, make an example of it and lay down the law, so to speak. The best way to go about it is to let her prevail over trivial things. A good example could be her telling you that you promised to take out the garbage and clear the dishwasher. If it can simply be forgotten after a few minutes anyways, why make something out of nothing? Plus, if you don't roll over once in a while, then you can't expect her to ever back down, as she will resent you for always proving how wrong she is. Men And Machismo Men are decision makers. I mean, you can't argue with thousands of years of human evolution. It's what we do. And, when it comes right down to it, women just aren't built to decide when and how things get done. It's not that they're less intelligent; it's just that they often let emotions get in the way of making clear-minded decisions. On the flipside, you have to ensure that you are not letting emotions such as jealousy and anger determine the choices you make. Just as she shouldn't be allowed to start a fight because she's having a bad hair day, we shouldn't provoke our lady just because we don't like the way she looked at the waiter. Before you accept a woman, make sure she isn't one of the following... Women To Avoid If you find yourself nodding and agreeing with most of the points in this article, rest assured that there are ways to avoid these situations by steering clear of potentially problematic women. Feminists Stay away from feminists. If you have to sit through a two-hour conversation regarding women's rights and the glass ceiling on the first date, then chances are that she's not for you. She will likely disagree with you on everything, and refuse to let you get a word in. Run like hell and don't look back. Overly opinionated and vocal women Avoid women that are overly assertive with their ideas and feelings. Sure it's nice when your woman speaks her mind and lets you know what she wants, but if she keeps pounding it into your head, it will eventually get on your last nerve. Look for a woman who likes to talk with you, and also agrees to disagree if you can't see eye to eye on certain things. Women who use sex as a weapon They use lovemaking as a bargaining tool. At first sight, you have to either make it very clear to her that you won't stand for it, or simply get out of that power-draining situation fast. Otherwise this type of woman will only continue to use sex against you until you break down and admit she is right. Summing It All Up What it all comes down to is that you have to find a woman you can deal with and have a good time with. Decide for yourself how much you are willing to put up with and go from there. Most women are going to demand that you take the blame once in a while, so you may have to swallow your pride on occasion. It's just how women are, plain and simple. Even those mail-order brides get hip to what's going on sooner or later... and 50% is a lot to give away if she decides to split. So try and understand that while you may be right and she likely knows it, she is still not going to admit it because her feelings get hurt a lot easier than yours do. And, while coming off as the wrong party means little to you since you will get over it in a matter of nanoseconds, to her, being wrong is an insult to her intelligence. Remember that most women are fragile and complicated creatures who need a certain amount of nurturing, and that is why we love them. If they weren't, they'd be just like us.
Men are also complicated, this from a women's point of view. It's also why we make good couples, it's the circle of life
I know i realised that after i submitted. The stupid iphone did not feel it when i pressed the A. Thats hardly the point though.
It was copy pasted. Which again is not the point. It is a explanation that totally contradicts the thread that is active at the moment about women being right. This uses facts. The other thread uses opinions ---- Hal
Duh it was opinions, I was just making it for fun gosh. Everyone's taking it so seriously, I'm LOLing at how serious this is
Jack do not try to troll me on my own thread about a spelling mistake when your gramma completely sucks. " All he had to do was write a title and he messed it up. "
Sexy one, It was copied and pasted, and is much more likely used in a context to raise some sort of argument to prove the misspelled title of this thread.
Leon I used an ellipsis. ... Noun The omission from speech or writing of a word or words that are superfluous or be understood from contextual clues. A set of dots indicating such an omission.
It's a grammatical thing, I wouldn't expect you to know that, simply because you also spelled grammar incorrectly. That's okay, I still love you.
