Study Shows Males Commonly Mistake Sexual Intent
seattle-pk writes "Males are apparently clueless when it comes to interpreting sexual intent from females, according to a recent study (PDF) from Indiana University's Department of Psychological and Brain Sciences. Men were found commonly to perceive more sexual intent in women's behavior than women were intending to convey. (A campus survey showed that 68% of college females had an experience where a male mistook signs of friendliness for affection.) However, the study also shows that men were quite likely to misperceive sexual interest as friendliness. 'Rather than seeing the world through sex-colored glasses, men seemed just to have blurry vision of sorts, overall,' according to the article. If you're a male who ever mistook the meaning of a barista's smile, looks like you're not alone."
Well, it's spelled "Asperger's syndrome" but you can also just say "typical Slashdotter"
The Tao of math: The numbers you can count are not the real numbers.
This was a study of 280 Indiana undergrads only. Other possible findings from the study of young Indiana men: 1) men think blowing up foreigners is 'real cool!'; 2) men reached puberty within past 10 years; 3) men are white with crewcuts and often run around screaming; 4) men do not remember any American president before Bush jr. and he is like, old - you know.; 5) men never held hands with a girl, but each have 14 zettabytes of pron; 6) all men know about feminism is from the Bush administration, video games, and the bible with the carpenter guy in it - and nothing in-between; and 7) men speak only English, and not well.
its a TYPO idiot.
I'm curious why you think opening doors for people should be a male only activity.
