I BEG to differ Schneider. I work with two women, both Mothers, who fart for amusement. I wouldn't have anything to do with either of them, at times I wonder how drunk their ex-hubbies were when they did the ol' mount-and-thrust.
Granted there are only so many Marissa Miller's in the world. Alas.
well then, stop complaining about women.
bitch = complain
bitch = FEMALE dog
I don't think they have a choice, it's just something they are born to do.
"Womyn" is an alternate spelling for women - feminist connotation. Therefore I believe the OP is actually a radical, militant Feminist. Her objective: obtain enough sexist material via Letsrun.com to boil over in rage and blowup an NFL team starting training camp this week.
Yeah, we complain a lot. I think most people complain a lot, but women complain about other women A LOT. I hate it when I am hanging out with my friends and then the complaining loop starts. The whole thing just turns into a complain-fest and it sucks. I think the reason for this is that women are pack animals and we like to find common ground somewhere. A common enemy is one of the most unifying forces known to man, so we do this "brothering and othering"(that was the term my sociology class used at least) behavior to bring ourselves closer to one another. Just watch next time one of your female friends has a bone to pick with another friend. She will tell everyone she knows about the problem, making herself look like the innocent victim to try to get the other people to rally behind her against the perpetrator. This behavior sucks more than you can imagine when you are a girl. I try to keep drama out of my life as much as possible, but if one intends to have female friends ever in their lives, they will at some point be the butt of this type of evil harassment. It is especially complicated when you are a member of a women's cross country/track team. One person has a problem with you and instead of putting on their man pants and confronting you, they just turn EVERYONE against you before you even realize something is wrong.
If you are looking for more evidence that women complain a lot, simply look at the excessively lengthy paragraph above.
Sincerely,
a womyn

Yes, they do... and short people also have smaller brains than tall people. And tall people have bigger butts. It a scientific fact.
Women have smaller bodies and therefore need fewer neural connections to get the job done. Ratio-wise, men and women have the brains of the same size.
I can't speak as to which sex has the larger "complaining lobe," but the playing field is equal as far as intellect goes.

yes. i agree.
the reason women have smaller brains doesn't matter. they just have smaller brains.
Smaller yes, but not less functional. I've got an IQ of 137, confirmed over 3 separate MENSA tests (137 was the average of my three scores.) Would you like to challenge me to an intelligence-off? (I'm serious, too. I think it would be fun) Do you like science? I'm a huge nerd and could kick your ass at science! This is all in fun anyway, so why not?? We could make it a LR thread where men and women compete on some intelligence test. It would be fun.
raw intelligence isn't something you can measure with tests.
i wouldn't expect you to understand this because of your smaller brain size.
Look up the meaning of the word man. its always been gender non specific. Tell all those feminist to read a book. Man doesnt just mean male gender. IT means both. WOMYN are by definition ignorant.
Yes, but there really is no other way to compare the intellect of two individuals, is there? We could argue on this topic for some time and declare the person who makes a better case the smarter one, but that would qualify as a test. You see, there is this annoying thing called science which requires you to test your hypotheses about the world. Without the results of some sort of test/experiment, you have nothing to base your position off of. Which brings me to my point: at least I have some data to back up my claim of intelligence. It doesn't matter if IQ tests aren't the best way to measure intellect, at least I have some sort of quantifiable answer to the question "are you smart or dumb?" You have yet to provide me any sort of information with which to judge your worthiness as an adversary in debate (other than the fact that your brain has a statistically higher chance of being larger than my brain which doesn't mean that it IS larger, only that it is more likely to be.)
Ah, let's compare ratios! (Even though you don't think that it is important, a ratio is a much better comparison of two independent subjects. It's called standardization and I think you will find that it is used quite a bit in science, but I wouldn't expect you to understand that because your behemoth brain is probably made up of mostly the fatty material we smart people like to call myelin. You need more myelin because your neurons have to be longer to accommodate your large size, rendering them less efficient and more likely to misfire. Having a slightly larger brain doesn't mean you have more neurons, just that your neurons are longer and possibly less efficient at transmitting impulses than mine. Ha!)
I am 5'3" and weigh about 105 pounds. The circumference of my head is 23.5" (measuring over the frontal bone in the middle and over the occiput in the back.)
Let's see who's brain is actually more suited for this delightful argument!
it looks like someone has a chip on their shoulder and is VERY insecure about their diminutive brain size.
just keep babbling on. no one is listening.
No diet nor exercise in THAT crew. UGH.
That thing on my shoulder is not a chip. It is the excess gray matter from my giant brain exploding out my ears.
I was hoping to get into a fun debate with you because I am VERY bored at the moment and have nothing better to do than start inflammatory arguments over gender differences on LetsRun.
I love men to death and they are at all inferior to women. In many respects I feel that the males are the superior sex (especially regarding personality and the ability to be decent human beings.)
That being said, I like debating and showing off my own inflated sense of intelligence, so what better way to accomplish that than this?
I am sad that no one is listening now because my giant girl ego needs some stroking. Wouldn't you just a little bit like to placate me? Please?
By the way, did you really run under 2:20 for the marathon? That's pretty good.
what would you like to do to these complaining womyn?
i'd like to slice their throats.
We should corral these wenches into a stable and slaughter them all with sharp knives.
Attitudes like this give us plenty to complain about.
there's nothing a women likes more than a sharp knife in her abdomen.
About this brain-size issue.
These are facts:
Man have larger-sized brains than women
Dolphins have larger-sized brains than men.
Does this brain size really matter? No.
looks like someone wants to get laid.
Don't tell me what to do. Have a nice day.
The male equivalent to female complaining is bragging. Both come from insecurity and miscalibrated efforts to improve status.
