This is all confirmation bias because most of you have very few female friends.

Name three of your male friends who are actually really good at something, something you respect and admire and wish you could do as well as they do. I'm older than most of you and probably much better traveled. I've lived in four cities and visited dozens. I've met giants of the tech industry like Dennis Ritchie, Bill Gates, Steve Jobs. The vast majority of men I've met are fucking idiots. Most men suck at video games, sports, music, writing, art, science, programming, business, dressing themselves, not pissing on the floor, personal hygiene, feeding themselves, driving, shutting the fuck up. I could go on.

There's a bunch of Justin Bieber faggots walking around in my town...all day, all night.

If I knew kung fu they'd change their ways.

Just to play devil's advocate, do you think it's possible you're suffering from a different sort of bias? One wherein the talents of other men seem trivial and the grace of womanhood is artificially elevated? Could you be, as a wise man once warned against, "putting the pussy on a pedestal"?

Seriously though, I tried to think of three dudes I know who are really good at anything -- and it ain't easy. I guess I know some pretty decent auto mechanics, but it's tough to spot where else my bros excel.

I'm not stating that a majority of women are good at anything, either. Just like the men, most of them are barely adequate at survival and that's only if someone else is doing most of the work.

I know a girl from Alaska who plays hockey and soccer at the national college level. She's currently in San Diego training for the next Olympics. Maybe people in Alaska suck less.

OP likes men a lot, maybe 100% gay?

Needless to say your premise is sexist and wrong. There are women who are completely 180 to the way you describe them to be. And as a matter of fact most* (not all) women generally have better taste than most CIS straight males.

Stop thinking in binary black and white =/

Azure, we've seen your pictures. There should be separate forum for all the homosexuals/transvestites on this server. Please keep to your own kind.

Very big accomplishments. Being good at a sport is no better then me being good at everquest. Throw that woman in the wilderness with nothing but a paperclip and see how long she lasts.

By the way, just for the record I havent said anything about women having inferior abilities in various fields. I am simply talking about the expectations of the relationship between men and women. If a woman is good at something then by all means let her do it so we can focus on something else.
