10 Things Women Do Better Than Men
I am not a feminist, but I am amazed at the number of studies that have found women better than men in various skills. Here is a list of 10 skills where women seem to be doing better than men.
-
Women drive better than men.
Well this reverses a social myth – that women are bad drivers. Carnegie Mellon University researchers found after analyzing a lot of traffic data in 2007 that men are 77% more likely to die in a car accident than women, keeping the miles driven constant. So next time when your husband asks you to hand over the car keys, just give him this article.
-
Women remember appearances better than men.
Some would say, “Why not? Don’t women pay all their attention to appearances?” Well, say what you may, but only a loser complains about somebody for being better than him! Terrence Horgan, research fellow in psychology at Ohio State University, and her co-researchers found in a study that women are more accurate in describing appearances after seeing people once. The study was published in the journal Personality and Social Psychology Bulletin.
-
Women cooperate better than men.
We can see this everywhere, but still if you want a citation, here it is. A study by Rolf Kuemmerli and other researchers at Edinburgh and Lausanne universities indicated that women cooperate better than men. In the research, based on games played by 100 Swiss students, women cooperated with others almost twice as much as men did.
-
Women eat better than men.
This is probably not so obvious, for rarely do we notice gender differences in eating habits. A survey involving 14000 Americans, conducted by University of Minnesota, revealed that men are more likely to eat frozen pizza and meat, whereas women are more likely to eat fruits and vegetables.
-
Women perform better than men in timed tests.
So if time is precious, women are better at preserving it than men. A study by Vanderbilt University researchers in 2006 found that women score better in timed intelligence tests than men. The study, published in the May-June issue of the journal Intelligence, didn’t find much difference in un-timed tests, which meant women had a quicker mind.
-
Women perceive their relationships better than men.
Talk about relationships and most men will frown. Now you know why – they know so little about their relationships! A Hebrew University of Jerusalem study, after surveying 97 couples in the United States, found that women are more perceptive than men in describing their relationships. The study, published in ScienceDaily, reported that women were much more accurate in describing the perception of their partners than men.
-
Women communicate better than men.
This is now scientifically proven and acknowledged. Louann Brizendine, neuro-pyschiatrist at the University of California at San Francisco, found in a study that women can process 20000 words a day compared to men’s 7000 words (Louann Brizendine,The Female Brain, Morgan Road Books). This difference, as per Brizendine’s study, is more biological than social, which starts as early as the fetal stage.
-
Women learn better than men.
That is why girls get better grades in school on an average than boys in many parts of the world. Dr Simone Kruger of Edge Hill University, UK, found in her research based on remote learners that women learners were more successful in sharing ideas and experiences with each other, and hence learnt more efficiently than men.
-
Women invest better than men.
You don’t believe it, do you? We all know fewer women invest in stocks than men do, but the few women who invest in shares do better than their male counterparts. A study by the National Association of Investors Corporation (NAIC) for the University of California found that women earn on an average 1.4% more than men in their share portfolios.
-
Women cope with stress better than men.
A study at the University of California, Los Angeles, published in the July 2000 issue of Psychological Review, found some biological and behavioral differences in the ways men and women cope with stress. It found that women tend to seek contact with others and social support when they are under stress, which is a psychologically much better way of coping with stress than the “fight-or-flight” approach of men.
Of course, there are other studies which indicate men are better than women in various skills. The point I want to make is not that women are better than men in everything, but that men should stop underestimating women after being proven wrong time and again.

I’ve clarified in the article that my purpose was not to propagate “man-hating feminism” but to alert men to women’s capabilities so they desist from underestimating women. Feminism is a reaction to male chauvinism, and it will remain a force to reckon as long as men “don’t care about it”.

Women are in no way inferior to men. There are different things in which both sexes are good at. Men should only try to understand women . But i have a doubt. In ancient sayings and all, it’s always said that we should respect women. why is that?

Hi
I’m a guy so you’ll likely curse me for criticising your article, but I have the impression you’re not one of those fanatic feminist(you’re obviously feminist in your article) women, although I get the idea you’re not happy with equality neither (common be honest -haha). Now seriously I think your intentions aren’t bad after all, but you should restrain from insulting others in a implicit way just to extol your own gender, especially when you fail to accomplish your goal in a rational way. You can be sure I’m 100% into equality , I don’t consider women inferior to men, but I don’t consider you superior to us neither, sorry. That’s way I’ll leave you my two cents,
Here there are some constructive critics:
I think you should just keep the facts and avoid controversial conclusions, let the “things that women do better than men” topic for radical feminists and that kind of uneducated people.
You fail to prove your point at many of your postings, some of the facts and the conclusion you extract from them are not logically tied. Here are the ones I found:
1- Women have less fatal accidents per mile, thus they’re better drivers? There’re so many variables involved (where were they driving?, weather conditions?, speed?, how tired were they?, alcohol?) that is impossible to make that kind of statement, it just doesn’t make sense.
5- Now that’s a sexist claim! No demi-normal person could arrive to such a conclusion after one mysterious study. Source for the study’s data? “Intelligence test” is quite a large object, what were they doing?, what were they studying?, the test focused on maths, language or what?, if so, how they performed by subject? When timed, what kind of question they answered? Or they finished all of them?.
6- That’s too subjective even to criticise.
7- Women communicate better?, The original study stated that women use more words than men, not that they communicate better, one thing doesn’t mean the other.
8- I fail to see how “women learn better”. “Learning” is quite a big subject, and it’s too soon to understand it completely on its own, let alone if sex plays a role on it. The study’s result can be explained by social indoctrination and behaviours too, it doesn’t mean that women “learn more efficiently” for having a feminine brain. Also, the grades the genres get changed along the years, so it is more possible than there be a social difference more than an evolutionary or generic one.
9- How big is the investment pool for women vs, men? Minorities tend to make it better, plus you will see the situation reversed many times., like it was. You couldn’t find anything more fortuitous, could you?
10-This has to do more with social differences than with anything else.
Greetings.
Please excuse me for my English, but it’s not my primary language.

Like most men I don’t underestimate women, but I think it’s about time for women [as well as self-hating guys(it seems feminists did they job quite well, because there're plenty of them)] to stop using it as an excuse to promote their sexism.

You shouldn’t be amazed, finding women better than men is politically correct, even more, feminism is “in”.
For the poster who was asking for a similar article the other way round: The scientific community is not less biased now than what it was when Darwin found men to be more evolved. Making any serious claim of men being better than women at something important (just remember Summers)will lead to prosecution and could cost you your job, however make the opposite statement and everybody is happy. I’m afraid it will take long (no journal wants to be labelled as “chauvinist”) to find objective results about sex differences, at least the ones showing what men are good at.

I don’t think feminism is “politically correct”. And there is no comparison between feminism and male chauvinism. Chauvinism is an attack on women, their self-respect, whereas feminism is a fight for justice. Chauvinism is a crime against women, and like all sophisticated crimes, it is subtle and kept under wraps. Feminism is loud, like all protests against crime and injustice are. Chauvinism, by its very methodology, appears non-existant; feminism, by its very methodology, appears unnecessary. I am happy all of us don’t go by appearances; some of us are after truth and justice.
I know there are a few fanatics on the feminists’ side as well, who think it’s their duty to offend men. Such extreme feminism is as bad as chauvinism. But that takes nothing away from people who believe in gender equlity and social justice. So feminism, as I understand it, may not be politically correct but it’s scientifically and morally correct.
As for my article, I have mentioned that I am aware of studies that have found men doing better than women in xyz things. And I am not hurt by them either. But many men are either ignorant of or feel hurt by studies that found women better-skilled than men. Why? Because that’s very convenient to most men. They don’t have to rewire their thinking, which has been faulty for thousands of years.
You may question the authenticity of some of the studies I’ve cited. In fact, every aspect of human life is so complex, we can chose to distrust all studies ever conducted. Trusting or not trusting is a choice we all make, and we know where choices come from.
Finally, the feminsts’ fight is only with chauvinists. They have no fight with men who do not dicriminate against women. And the scope of this fight is much beyond scientific studies.

I agree with most of what you said Rebecca. Both men and women need each other, and the differences do not in anyway prove who is superior.
But I do not agree with the laughing part. Scientific studies are not conducted to either bolster one’s own gender or bash the other gender. They are rather conducted to discourage the tendency to bash the other gender. Such studies are done not to create the myth that women are superior, but to bust the myth that men are superior. You may ask, “Who believes in the myth of masculine superiority anyway?” You may be surprised to hear my answer: “Almost everybody, including most women.” You may deny it, and profess equality whenever you get the microphone, but in all walks of your life you behave in ways that betray this belief in masculine superiority. It is too subtle for most people to realize.
Just try answering a few questions. What percentage of women are senators or members of parliament in the US, the UK, India, or anywhere else? What percentage of women are in leadership positions in any public or private organization? What percentage of fetus aborted worldwide are female? Who calls the shots in your home?
Don’t make the mistake of thinking that the answers are insignificant. They are always significant, and they point towards gender discrimination. Who is responsible for it? Is it the government? Is it the men? No, each one of us discriminates against women, no matter whether we are men or women.
I found it very interesting when one person replying to this post called feminists as women and self-hating guys. I only pity his innocence. Feminists are neither women nor self-hating guys. They are simply human beings who have the ability see through the subtle discrimination happening in our society, and the courage to protest against it. And in a country like India, I find more women than men discriminating against women. It is often the mother-in-law who tortures the girl for dowry, or even throws her into fire, not the father-in-law. Suprising? Not really. Even in the US, more women hate feminists than men. I feel like pitying them, not for being women, but for being blind to injustice.
Calling feminism fashionable is either misunderstanding it as misandry or ignoring the gender discrimination women generally suffer. The misandrists are making it tougher for genuine femninists to gain respect. But a few feminsts are bright enough to make an impact, like my sister.
Finally, let me clarify my personal position on this. Contrary to the impression my article has made, I am a man and I am not a feminist. I support feminism in principle, as I have learnt about feminism from my sister, whom I love and respect. But I never did anything to further the cause of feminism; so I cannot call myself a feminist.

So men are 77% more likely to die in a car accident – exactly how does that prove that women are “better drivers?”
For example, it could mean that men are simply less likely to wear seat belts. It could mean that men are more likely to be the drivers of “big rig” tractor-trailers, which tend to have NASTY effects on the driver when jack-knifed or rolled. Hell, we don’t even know whether the man was DRIVING when he was killed in that fatal car accident – or whether there was a woman at the wheel!

This article is totally Phony. Firstly, she acts as though, this is the first time somebody’s ever written something like this. Secondly, these so-called studies were performed by Leftist Extremists. Therefore, they’re bound to get the answers which they desire to achieve. Also, the studies listed are rather silly, wouldn’t you say ? Just imagine: what idiot calling themselves “Professionals” would ever perform these childish studies? Can you imagine a bunch of scientists determining that women are faster thinkers, or what-have-you. Also, some of the things listed are IMPOSSIBLE to know, for sure. While other claims are just plain false. Example: women can cope with stress better than men? That’s dumb.

MindIt, I’m afraid your statement about men, “They don’t have to rewire their thinking, which has been faulty for thousands of years” reveals it all. Right! We male idiots have been wrongly wired and faulty since the dawn of time and desperately need folks like YOU to sort this out. Smell the misandry…
Btw, putting together a list like this is useless. For example, women may have better social strategies for coping with stress, but this is only because (as other studies show) women are much inferior to men in actually handling strees physically/emotionally. Hence they need other methods to compensate for this weakness:
http://www.psychologytoday.com/articles/index.php?term=pto-20030624-000003&page=4
“As director of the Virginia Institute for Psychiatric and Behavioral Genetics at Virginia Commonwealth University, Kenneth S. Kendler, M.D., presides over “the best natural experiment that God has given us to study gender differences” — thousands of pairs of opposite-sex twins. He finds a significant difference between men and women in their response to low levels of adversity. He says, “Women have the capacity to be precipitated into depressive episodes at lower levels of stress.”
Adding injury to insult, women’s bodies respond to stress differently than do men’s. They pour out higher levels of stress hormones and fail to shut off production readily. The female sex hormone progesterone blocks the normal ability of the stress hormone system to turn itself off. Sustained exposure to stress hormones kills brain cells, especially in the hippocampus, which is crucial to memory.
It’s bad enough that females are set up biologically to internally amplify their negative life experiences. They are prone to it psychologically as well, finds University of Michigan psychologist Susan Nolen-Hoeksema, Ph.D.”

first off the study that women are better drivers is false due to the fact that there are 3 times the amount of men driving then women so the study that men get in more accidents are obviously more likely due to the fact that there are more men driving then women.
Mantastic
On January 30, 2009 at 5:57 am
Can I just say that men are way better drivers than women?
I can. Because I am a man. Women are terrible drivers.
Have you ever seen one try to park? I’ve seen it. Watching a woman park is like watching the opposite of a miracle happen. No one expects anything fantastic, and that’s exactly what they get.
As for that statistic of men are 77% more likely to die in a traffic accident…
Does this statistic include the fact that a woman struck the man’s vehicle? Or a woman distracted the man while he was driving, raving on about something stupid like how she was too ‘emotional’ to take her birth control before getting railed by him last night? I’m guessing in that incidence, the man was trying to do himself a favor and just end it right there.
These are just simple man-servations though. Which means they are right. Because they are made by a man. So don’t get all high and mighty on your feminist high horse, because that’s exactly what we don’t need.
Women that believe they are empowered are even worse than the ones who wake up late and can’t make my breakfast before I hit the day.

Hello, I’m Kim Ghost, and I’m a straight male. As a previous comment had also stated, you and some others would probably criticize me for commenting on this article, but I would just like to express some thoughts regarding some of the points spoken about in this article. Unlike some of your other commenters, I will not go into an… overly passionate… state in my criticisms and I only hope that my criticisms will not fall on deaf ears.
Women are better drivers… I don’t doubt that indeed, more men die in traffic accidents than women, but I’ve already checked your source and that statistic does not take into consideration the fact that there are many times more men drivers than women. Whatever the gender of the person at fault for the traffic accident is inconsequential.
Women remember appearances better than men… yes, the source that you provided thoroughly studied this aspect, but your article implies that some of us men would complain grudgingly about that. I’ve checked your source and it actually states that the women proved only very slightly better than men when it came to remembering details about a person that they had only seen once, but the source claims that this only showed when the subjects were looking at men. When the subjects were looking at women, both men and women subjects fared equally well. I doubt that men would raise a fuss about women remembering more about other men, whom straight men would not care to notice anyway, compared to how much they would remember about women, whom straight men look at most of the time, even to the point of oggling. Unless of course, the man liked to look at men more than women. In that case, they would still not complain begrudgingly about this point.
Women cooperate better than men… the study which you cited, like many of its predecessors, was based on the participants’ responses while playing the Prisoner’s Dilemma, a game that simulates real-life conflicts and allows negotiators to cooperate or defect for various payoffs. However, the results of the game that they used, which I have obtained and played, is highly affected by the nature of the payoffs in the game that the player herself/himself decides. While sometimes, it showed that women were more skilled at deal-making and making people work together, not all the situations in which they cooperated ended well, because the problematic situations required competition in order for the problem to be solved. Insistence on cooperation may not exactly be the best way to solve the problem at hand. Meanwhile, competition, with the absence of sabotage, may just drive the competitors to achieve the solutions needed.
Women perform better than men in timed tests… I admit that the study that you cited claimed that it encompassed a large number of people within a large range of ages, however, the study was only conducted within the United States, not counting the countries in Asia and Europe, where some other, more widespread studies prove otherwise.
Women communicate better than men… when I checked your source, I found that even Brizendine herself says that the quote wherein “women can process about 20,000 words a day compared to 7,000 a day for men” was taken out of context. Just because women can process more words a day does not mean that that women communicate better. In addition, the method of communication is a matter of preference. Women prefer to communicate through talking, while men prefer to communicate through actions.
Women learn better than men… you used this statement out of context. The study that you cited showed results that show how women acted while engaging in online courses, not the more traditional and conventional in-school learning. In addition, the study stated that the flexibility that women showed in the willingness to share ideas only applied when the women knew each other. The results showed that men and women fared equally when they were put into groups of complete strangers.
These are just some of my thoughts on the discussion. On a final note, we straight men do not appreciate the quips about us. Yes, we know that women have it quite hard with society’s patriarchal way of thinking, and we understand the need for women to give us facts of their superiority in some matters, however insulting us while giving these facts does not make your situations any easier. Just stick to the facts next time, alright?

no doubt women are indeed more intelligent & more evolved , but because men r physically stronger…it will always be a man’s world,& that pisses every women off to the highest degree.imagine awaking every morning knowing that ur just a formality !! btw ; because women drive far less & more defensively,of course they have fewer accidents ! also ,it’s a fact that men have far better spatial capacities & depth perception. aside from giving birth, there’s nothing a women can do, that a gay cannot.

Just a quick word to the ghost guy, if car insurance companies spend a major part of their time researching demographics,scientific studies, etc. to ensure that the risk of insureing a client is minumum, then why would they have lower insurance rates for women if men were truly the better driver? Doesn\’t this pretty much say that women are less likely to be in a vehicular incident? When an insurance company researches the risks, they\’re going to factor in every aspect of the driver. And guess what? They think women are the better drivers.
kim_ghost1103
On March 25, 2009 at 7:50 pm
Hello, this is Kim Ghost again. Let me clarify my point regarding the driving-related percentages that abound in this argument.
It is, of course, general knowledge that female drivers are outnumbered by male drivers. The rough estimate puts the numbers at just over 9 female drivers for every 10 male drivers.
(”Are Women Taking More Risks While Driving? A Look at Michigan Drivers” by Lidia P. Kostyniuk, Lisa J. Molnar, and David W. Eby from the University of Michigan)
Official numbers from TrafficSTATS, the risk analysis study by Carnegie Mellon for AAA 2007 that was cited in this article, estimate that 21.14 people, disregarding gender, die in traffic accidents per 100 million trips. Putting the difference in the number of drivers from each gender into play, at least 11.13 of the 21.14 have to be men, the majority. As it is, according to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS): 175,094 male drivers compared to 82,371 female drivers have died in traffic accidents from 1999 to 2005.
Now, the data stated in this article was taken from a study of equal numbers of male and female drivers, randomly taken from the data compilation, in order to compute the percentage of male and female drivers who died in traffic accidents. Since physically, more male drivers than female drivers really have died in traffic accidents, there was a greater chance for the records of the male drivers who had died to be included in the study than for the records of the female drivers who had died. This would have affected the percentages against the men.
I will not take a stand regarding which gender generally drives better. I am simply saying that the statement that men are 77% more likely than women to die in traffic accidents is most likely inaccurate, and that having more men than women die in traffic accidents does not necessarily mean that women are better drivers.
matt
On April 16, 2009 at 7:32 pm
lost interest after point number one about driving. Listen pussycat, who do you think causes 77% of males to die in car accidents? Women drivers of course in their husbands 4×4 or rubbish 1 litre. Make us all a nice cup of tea and look at knitting patterns on the internet. It would be more useful to make yourself and the family a nice tea cosy rather than waste good peoples time posting rubbish on the internet.

I can think of many other advantages women have over men:
We can handle pain alot better.
When men hit us, it’s domestic abuse…when we hit men, it’s victory.
Men have to live according to what their wives want from them. Whereas women are free and independent.
Men need women way more than women need men.
“Guys’ Night Out” usually means getting into trouble. “Girls’ Night Out” is theraputic.
People care more about women’s health than men’s health.

okay this is just more misandrist nonsense that presents yet another double standard. anytime you get women counting down all the things women do better than men men are just supposed to sit back and nod our heads. yet when you get a bunch of men talking about the things men do better than women it becomes grounds for a feminist outcry. what’s really angering is this whole john and kate situation. if the situation were in reverse and john was the one being mean to kate and she was caught with another man people would rally behind her and tell her leave her ABUSIVE husband. but when it’s kate treating her husband like crap and he gets caught with another woman everyone is quick to call him on it and make him seem like the bad guy. so in other words if a woman is being verbally abused by her husband she should leave him but when a man is being verbally abused by her husband he’s just supposed to stay with her. then there’s the issue of physical violence. all these cases where women assault their husbands and boyfriends and everyone just laughs them off. yet the whole chris brown/rihanna assault case is treated like a serious situation. don’t get me wrong, it is, but what about treating violence against men as a serious issue, too? i’m just so sick and tired of all the misandry going on in the world. and people still think is doesn’t exist while misogyny is still looked at as a serious social issue. i think being a man this day in age is poisonous.

I think the time has come for a men’s rights movement. I think you ladies forgot the whole point of feminism. Let me refresh your memories…it means EQUAL RIGHTS FOR WOMEN AND MEN!!!! IT DOESN’T MEAN WOMEN BEING SUPERIOR TO MEN!!!! I’m not being misogynist in any way. Just trying to get the point out there that these days, it’s all about women being superior beings and angels no matter what and men being these horrible, vicious monsters. Let’s not forget about that woman who assaulted then murdered an innocent 8-year-old girl. A man does this and he’s vilified but a woman does this and she must be some sort of victim. All these women’s groups are actually rallying behind this monster of a woman because they all think she must be a battered wife, or something. Either way, that doesn’t make it okay to kill a child. And how about that woman who handcuffed herself to her fiance and kept attacking him. Though this was clearly domestic violence, everyone kept laughing at it saying “this guy is a wuss”. Yet everyone is sympathetic to Rihanna. Come on! Violence is violence! No one has the right to put their hands on anyone!

20,000 vs 7,000 spoken words means nothing. Quality over quantity. If men don’t feel that talking about someone getting fat, dragging someone’s name through the mud or who’s sleeping with who is important enough to warrant a shallow discussion to make themselves shallowly feel better about themselves, then it doesn’t make them inferior communicators. Picking your words is not a bad thing. In fact, more people should do it.

women have beautiful friendships. we are encouraged to put our girlfriends ahead of any man. but if a man puts his guy friends ahead of the woman he loves it’s just wrong. men are what’s wrong with the world. women are what’s right with the world.

Though I’m not a man-hater I do very firmly believe that women do have certain superiorties over men. Like, for example, women are alot stronger than men, in terms of dealing with emotions and situations. And it is the woman who is the boss in relationships with men, because in all fairness men have been walking all over women for ages. And women do make much better decisions. So, I’m all for women controlling their husbands and boyfriends. I’m very controlling of my man and he never complains about it.

dusty, i’m a man, and i want to bust your face in. it is very obvious that you do not in any way value women or the contributions they make to society. for you to even say such horrible things about women makes me want to blast my gender right out of the universe. men are no better when it comes to driving. when you think about it over 100% of all drunk drivers are men. over 100% of all car accidents and car deaths are because of men and our tendency to drive too fast. i know i’ve had that problem, and my wife points it out to me. as far as women having the upper hand in relationships and marriage, i’m all for it. i believe firmly that women are better people than men are and that they’re the strong ones and the ones who truly understand humanity. that is why today we are seeing so many young women being wrongfully scrutinized by the male-dominated media. it is men’s way of keeping women down. i think it’s sick. i hate to go there, but look at the way farrah fawcett’s death is being basically steamrolled over by michael jackson’s death. true, mj’s death is indeed tragic, but i think farrah’s death is far more tragic. and what about what’s happening with lindsay lohan and britney spears? britney’s doing good now apparently, but when she was having her meltdown it became fodder for jokes and media scrutiny. yet, heath ledger’s drug-related death was treated with far more respect. but britney’s drug problems were treated like an ongoing joke. even when the woman shaved all her hair off, went into rehab and was taken to a mental ward, everyone had to joke about it and exploit her. and lindsay. poor lindsay lohan. she’s still a kid in her early 20’s. but no one is giving her a break. she has a serious problem. it should not even be considered a joke. and everyone keeps saying her career is over. bull! did we say that about corey feldman and corey haim when they had their drug problems? no. yet, look where those two losers are right now. and we place megan fox on this pedestal just because she’s hot while we still don’t have a woman president. this whole “men are better than women/women are just sex objects” bs makes me want to kill off my gender and then go into surgery to become a woman.

I’m a man too and I value women alot more than men. I believe women are superior to men in every way, which is why I feel women are allowed to beat up men and push men around. I truly believe women should totally rule the world.

i am a woman and i don’t think women or men are better than each other. we’re all better than each other at some things. but bottom line is we need each other. i would much rather live in a world with men and women than a world with just one gender.

Oh, sure….it’s perfectly acceptable to pollute the internet with all this “women-are-better-than-men” garbage! Bud heaven forbid there should be just one little page that says “men do this, or that, better than women”, NOW and every feminist/femmenazi would have the thing taken down and hold town meetings (women only, mind you) and make the talk show rounds to talk about “this highly mysoginistic, cheuvinistic web story that talks about something men do better than women”! JESUS CHRIST!!!!! Next thing, someone is going to start going around saying God is a woman…OH WAIT!!!! THAT ALREADY HAPPENS!!!!

Women can hear better. Men can see smaller print. Women have a higher pain tolerance. Men are physically stronger. See??????? We balance each other out.
The reason Adam was made first was so Eve could be ‘birthed’ from him, and all men ‘birthed’ from her, and thus creating a cycle, so that everyone is ‘birthed’ from God. They are two parts of a machine and both are equally important to make it run smoothly.

Girls rule! There is no equality! Women are always going to be superior to men no matter what! We are the better sex and you boys can’t seem to deal with it!

The funny part is that most of the proof is utter tripe. Deliberate misinterpretation for the win.

Women are better because, unlike men, we don’t need to get married, or be in a romantic relationship, to complete ourselves. Men, on the other hand, need women.
