Unfortunately, an over-reliance on tech support does not apply to women and computers alone, from personal experience. You wouldn't believe how some people can get over-reliant on anything given the conditions to. But I digress.

On the other hand, men can be suckers for women charms. It is still a prevalent societal norm that men have to do certain things, and women are expected to do other certain things.

And add the fact that men and women have different biological senses, and you probably can see part of why there is a difference.

Trackback from On Gender Specific Mediocrity:

The author is a sexist pig. As a man myself, you have my money-back guarantee on it. I’m not surprised at all by the fact that he cannot see the piles of poop he dropped all over his post....

Aiyoyo! Why are you young ones arguing and fighting? Really if men and women were to be alike, life would really be boring right?

Let men be men; women be women; boys be boys, girls be girls and pigs be pigs. Can or not.?

"Albert Einstein (a serial womaniser, but we can overlook that), Winston Churchill (a racist and an alcoholic, but we can overlook that), JFK (a serial womaniser, who was hooked on LSD, but we can overlook that). But these names do not roll off the tongue as easily as Mother Theresa, or even your own mother."

Great men:

Osamu Tezuka (creator of Astroboy and the father of modern manga). George Lucas (though his reputation is going kaput). Lee Kuan Yew (though some may disagree). Ghandi (if you type that in wikipedia, you'll get the guy. The woman you'll have to go to the list). Abraham Lincoln. Bill Gates. Warren Buffet. The Emperor of Qin. Genghis Khan. Ernst Rutherford. Enrico Fermi. Adam Smith. Hu Jintao. Mao Zedong. Deng Xiaoping. Lots of guys in the historical period of the Three Kingdoms. I liked Sima Yi. But Zhang Liao and Zhao Zi Long were also on my top list.

Try this for another angle of the same dose of diatribe.

Miss Brain-Not-In-Use, I am not TheGreatSze. I couldn't post my comment in your post since something was wrong with the system. In fact, I am currently studying for my exams, and not succeeding anyway. Why on earth would I be typing out my crap here otherwise? Gah, why am I wasting time here anyway? Got to do my stuff now.

Gee, I guess you have sand in your vagina or something, seeing that you're mad or something. Don't go to the beach too often, or you'll be a beach girl or something. Hey look, I really got too much free time.

Unfortunately, pigs will remain pig-brained for the rest of their lives. This debate is already expired since time immemorial. Equality is something that will never be true for everybody. However, we can always try to respect people REGARDLESS of their gender. ;-)
