Men's Brains, Women's Brains

[kdbrown777]

Alternate title for nothing box: the sanity box. It's what keeps men sane. :)

[chercw]

He's funny. He's not pretending to be scientific. My husband watched with me and copped to the "Nothing" box. Just saying from my big ball of wire! LOL Hormones!

[1111freethinker]

i understand the nothing box..whenever the wife asks "whats on your mind?" or " what are you thinking of?" and the man says "nothing" Thats exactly what he means!!!

[MasterCSX]

Men are logical creatures. Women are mostly emotional. Emotions governs their logic and changes it into things that don't exist and are fabricated. Women are most good at doing tasks. They only confuse themselves and others when they try to make sense.

[horseylassx1]

@MasterCSX what you mean to say is men do not show there emotions because they believe showing their emotions is not a masculine thing to do. I read that the only real difference between a woman's and a man's brain is that if a man sees a female he wants to impregnate or a male he wants to fight he looses concentration and only focuses on that one thing. Women obviously get distracted too but usually not over other females or an attractive male.

Why would the audience clap when he said that we have a "box" which contains...nothing in it...

[lilmexican112486]

4 people were women lol



[royroy3]

This is funny but great advice..

[GeneralLawlessness]

So let me get this right: the academics who are arguing about who knows the most, are (ahem) - male.

Jeez, chill out, it's FUN!

[returnoftheramble3]

dominance vs submission, security vs control. :P

[SirFrancisDashwood15]

Discussing only what's in the box is called being logical, because it has nothing to do with the other boxes unless there is a logical connection to them. Women, on the other hand, pull stuff out of thin air that have absolutely nothing to do with whatever conversation you're having with them. The only thing that women want out of it is to win whatever argument they're in, regardless of whether or not it makes any logical sense. That's why there are so few female engineers.

[yakitoriPB]

@SirFrancisDashwood15 I agree wholeheartedly.  Logic

[vernonpage]

@SirFrancisDashwood15 "Women, on the other hand, pull stuff out of thin air that have absolutely nothing to do with whatever conversation you're having with them"

What an utterly ludicrous generalisation. Have you had any experience of argument above graduate level?

[nerdpantish]

@SirFrancisDashwood15 You're a man aren't you.

[Rokass99]

@nerdpantish Yeah, that's why he's speaking logically.

[unicornsplayxboxtoo]

@SirFrancisDashwood15 Thats stupid, Have you seen males! They always try to win arguments! I never care about arguments. I have seen more males trying to win arguments then women. Plus Females dont want to become engineers because its mostly a man thing, We dont like building, and getting messy.

[jayc342009]

@unicornsplayxboxtoo You have seen more males trying to win arguments...? Bullshit bitch.

[unicornsplayxboxtoo]

@jayc342009 Yes I have, Dont need to be angry so much..

[SoCalxHeartbreaker]

@unicornsplayxboxtoo women are too emotional to think straight

[chercw]

@SoCalxHeartbreaker

ROTFL! We have our days! Bet your single! LOL!

[lantern133]

@unicornsplayxboxtoo Umm... that's called construction, or Civil Engineering, or mechanical. There are literally dozens of types engineers that never leave an office. And men are just more open about the fact that they're trying to win arguments.

[socalbonzi]

@unicornsplayxboxtoo by responding to his comment in this manner, aren't you indeed contradicting yourself and actually agreeing with him by trying to win this argument?

[shadowtails24]

lol my friend made me watch this and i think its funny.

[fonna]

I found this highly amusing....lol

[Susky97]

No matter what category you place his humor in, hes plagiarized this from Margaret Atwood. Her essay The Female Body from the mid 1980s uses this same analogy related to male and female thinking (individual boxes vs. hardwiring). Whatever you think of his shtick, hes not being terribly original.

[hershycows]

so? y do u have to b a party pooper? and dont give some smartass answer

[Tee020]

it's observational humor. there aren't any stereotypes here.

[DLPBurke]

never seem to see women making this kind of comedy.... don't see many decent women comedians

[Rybot9000]

This is comedy. It isn't science. All he's done is made up pseudo-scientific euphamisms for sociocultural gender stereotypes. Nothing this man said is scientifically accurate, quite the contrary. Even where there may be a statistical probability within a particular demographic, the claims are far too broad.

Men and women differ very little in reality. And the brain is almost identical, save for a few culturally defined differences and some biochemical cascades.

[bab008]

Larry Cahill, associate professor of neurobiology at UC Irvine, and Louann Brizendine, neuropsychiatrist at UC San Francisco both have published extensively on recent findings that show clear anatomical differences in men's and women's brains. They strongly disagree with you.

[akstebbens]

@Rybot9000: actually, there are significant differences that begin to occur in early fetal development, when the male brain gets bathed in testosterone while the femail brain gets very little.

[rpdarrow]

Ha...have you ever heard of the corpus callosum? Do you understand its function and structure? Do you have any clue what in-utero development does to this neurological structure? I've taught this stuff for years and you're way off. There are distinct neurological construct differences between the male and female brain.

Nicely written post. You sound like you have credibility...but unfortunately you do not.

Dr. D

[vernonpage]

@rpdarrow The tone of your reply tends to imply that you are not as knowledgeable as you make out. Of course in-utero development has an impact on neurological structure of the female; but in-utero development simply means foetal development. Such a state is hardly permanent, is it? (unless you are one of 'those' estate mothers with 12 children and an inability to say 'no'). Why don't you explain to us what the distinct neurological construct differences between the male and female brain are?

[Calixtus]

@Rybot9000 I am proud to find at least one American male who knows pride enough to deny this distorted and humiliating opinion of the masculine. From a rational perspective, there is very little to suggest there should be any substantial form of difference between a man and a woman. The difference asserted so strongly by the public's view on this does not match up to or is replicated within the natural world. For this I ask, do dogs think differently from bitches? You have your answer.

[akaRazz2]

@Rybot9000 Lighten up.

[harrismonster1]

@Rybot9000 shut up its funny dont ruin it

[garyochoa]

@Rybot9000 your missing the point. The point is that men and women simply do not think the same and that is were communication comes into play. Beside the fact that you use common liberal words that you think will make you sound important... but really all you regurgitated was BS from the typical socialist mind set.

[farber2]

I think he's fairly close. think of one specific aspect of something, and stay there till you solve it, or bounce around and see what alternatives are.

[RabidNurse]

My husband and I are in a marriage small group and it is sooo much fun..this guy is a riot, he is sooo dead on with everything! I love him

[nlwcoffice]

Please do not use curse words on here.

[pineapplescoconuts]

funny and true!!

[LittleAnne123]

it's true
