06/23/2005 Archived Entry: "The difference between men and women"

Once again I am shown the difference between men and women. Men view things in a overall mental picture. Women see the first picture and the final picture.

Let me give an example here:
The women sees the new living room, where the furniture is, how the curtain hangs. See sees all the details that are part of the finished product.

The man sees having to haul all of the old furniture out. Having to demo the walls. He also sees having to installl the new wall and rewire the outlets. Hang the drywall. Mud, sand, and paint the drywall. Move all of the new furniture in.

While the woman doesn't see all the details that go into her final vision of the room, the man doesn't see all the minor details of the final product.

The woman sees A the old room and B the new room.
The man sees everything inbetween A and B.

While this may seem sexist and stereotyping in it's nature. I have seen example of it over and over again.

Brendan,

I disagree. I think you have it backwards. Yes possibly in the above reference you have it right. However, I have found that women tend to think about things from A-Z they figure every aspect of the project and then try to figure the right way to get it done. Men think A) here is my project, I want to get to Z) what is the fastest way to get there. I think men don't think about the hitches in the fastest way until they are right up upon it, thus forcing them to go right back to A. You yourself maybe one of those rare breeds that don't have that problem but in my encounters this is what I have found.
