Author vanilla87 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Posted September 17, 2009 Why are you leaving it down when there are guys in the house? Hypocritical, no? No its all about out of respect to put the toilet seat down. How would you like it if the toilet seat was always put down, sealed, and you had to aim for the hole and make a mess? Thats how it feels when you guys leave it up too often. We don't want to walk into a bathroom knowing you left it up cause that makes us think you have no respect for us. Trust me more so if you take a #2, because the bacteria flies up and can actually make you sick. So try putting it down it you can, please... Also thats another reason is that you have urinal stalls cause you can pee standing up, we have to sit down to dispense the urine into the toilet. If we could pee standing up there would probably never be this situation to begin with in the first place when they invented not only the toilet but the seat cover that goes with it. So be thankful you guys don't just have toilets in your MEN's bathrooms or you would probably go nuts if you had to put down the seat everytime you used one out at a public restroom...
carhill Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Every toilet seat and lid is down in my house. Drove my wife nuts, having to lift the lid Me, I just lift the thing, take a leak, close it and flush. Wow, rocket science. The difference between the male and female brain.
Author vanilla87 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Posted September 17, 2009 Really? Since 8am, and thats early? I was at work by 7:30, awake before that. Can I pout when I have no proof for any of the ridiculous claims I made? Okay then you try only having gotten literally in the last 72 hrs a total of 8-10 hrs of sleep. Then try being up almost everyday by 8:30am, no later then 9am. Then spend the monday through friday till about 3pm, ontop of that the extra stuff that I'm involved in at school, helping my friend with her wedding (i'm the MOH), currently dealing with healthy problems of family and friends left and right (PTSD, cancer (lung & breast), etc...), having it almost be the one year anniversary of my grandmothers death and the in december my other grandmother one year anniversary, and lastly trying to hold it all together after recently having broken up with someone for the third time in the last 2 years who you love and were engaged too at one point. Oh and I almost forgot, try driving around looking for a parking spot on campus for about 10-25 minutes even when your on time. I'd like to see you try and then throw in once a month labor like cramps of pain into that, only happens when it gets very cold out (under 50 degrees) and then come and tell me your day sucks cause of your 7:30am work till god knows when. See I'm allowed to complain about it because I don't ever complain about to anyone, so truth be told everyone is atleast 2-3 times a year a full on fledge complaint without getting hassled if its been a really bad situation. Its almost an unspoken rule for women... I can now safely say that was a rant and also therapeutic...

Well, it's also out of respect not to make any deal out of it if it is up, or write paragraphs over paragraphs over why it should be up. The seat stays in the position it was last used. End of story. I'm not fickle, but I would instantly dump a woman if she ever gave me a hard time because of the "seat". Plus it's woman's job to keep things clean and comfortable anyway
New Again Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Every toilet seat and lid is down in my house. Ditto. It seems cleaner to me to have the lid down if it's not being used...plus have always had dogs/kittens/puppies around so it's always needed to be down to prevent drinking and disasters. Otherwise, I have to say I agree - why should men put it down for women but not the other way around? So dumb, especially if as a girl you go over to a guy's house who lives alone or with other guys...do you expect him to put the seat back down? I don't.

No one had a gun at your head forcing you to post when you are tired.
Thaddeus Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Hey, I live by myself and put the seat and lid down after every use. Not sure why, I just do it like that and don't give it a second thought. See a difference in the way my brain works compared to some other males in this thread? There's a huge difference even between people of the same gender. So while there are certainly differences between genders, there are also plenty of differences within genders.
bayouboi Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Hey, I live by myself and put the seat and lid down after every use.

There's a huge difference even between people of the same gender. So while there are certainly differences between genders, there are also plenty of differences within genders. Those behaviour patterns can change, also. For example, when I was married, I always left the seat up and it drove my ex-wife nuts. Now that I'm single, I always put the seat down, and I bet I get brownie points from my girlfriend.
Jersey Shortie Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Wow, and the article said it was men that have a hard time admitting they were wrong and apologizing... Well men do have a hard time admitting they are wrong and apologizing. I love how society has managed to convince women that they want to go out to work! Work is boring, it sucks, it's miserable, and those women who can afford not to work are incredibly lucky. In the past most women could avoid working, but nowadays most of them have to work whether they want to or not. And I wouldn't particularly want to change my own tire either - you would have to be crazy to consider that to be an enjoyable thing! I love how you are trying to convince yourself that there aren't women out there that are highly successful and enjoy their work. This isn't a matter of society convincing women anything. This is a matter of women seeking to add something to society that they were never really given a chance to do. Some women don't want to work. And that's fine. But I know for myself I could never be happy keeping out alone. I think that's how alot of women are today. I enjoy my work very much. I am proud of it. I am doing good things in my organization representing something I feel passionatly about. I love working with my clients and having intelligent discussions. I work within the newspaper industry. I also love putting on a killer pair of heels and getting dolled up to go out and being treated like a woman. My ability to work and enjoy it doesn't make me less feminie. I don't find that doing the laundry, cooking dinner, or cleaing the house gives me the satisfaction I get when I accomplish something here at work. I do enjoy cooking and getting things done around the house but I don't get the sense of accomplishment I get from nailing a situation at work and having a client be happy with the progress. Now this I agree with. Women are trying to compete in a man's world, which to me isn't what equality should be about. At the same time, women's traditional roles are disappearing and they no longer have such a defined role in society. No equality is when the world is neither a man's world or a woman's world but a world that is built on respecting both genders and letting them express the best sides of themselves. But women don't have much choice but to compete in a world that respects men first. Otherwise it's either sink or swim. And true equality won't happen unless men really want it to. And most men really don't. How many men will make fun of another guy telling what a "girl" he is. Men think being a woman makes you less worthy of respect. I mean, I know men love women, don't get me wrong. But there are many that still consider women below themselves. And if women don't stand up for thesmelves, no one else will. So that is why so many women do what they do today. And why so many men end up complaining about how women are today. It's kind of like men almost spite themselves. Anyway, as for changing the tire. I don't go out changing tires for the fun of it. But I am very proud of m yability to do these things on my own and it doesn't make me any less girly or feminine. I am actually quite girly.
Author vanilla87 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Posted September 17, 2009 Sounds unpleasant, but you know this thread would have still been here in the morning. No one had a gun at your head forcing you to post when you are tired. No, but its the repetitive annoyance of someone who tries to make the situation something entirely different just cause it was in a females perspective and got very bent out of shape. Sounding that defensive makes you look like not only the bad guy but that you have serious issues with women altogether. Any guy who gets like that is insecure about something when it comes to women in general. A real man accepts that women are different and realizes that its a good thing, because then men would be dating women who think exactly like men and we all know you guys love challenges half the time... Anyway, I enjoy healthy debates or discussions about good topics. The original idea of the post was to just give people a new view on a scientific and psychological explaining about the male and female brain. Whatever happen to being open minded and seeing a new point of view as a way to broaden your horizons and seeking out other information online to help further a good way to reach new heights for such topic as this? And also are the three main complainers, your one of them, decided to be the bullies on the thread? Seriously you three make it easier for the rest of us to point out why your not thrilled about the article and its not about the fact its from a woman's POV...
Author vanilla87 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Posted September 17, 2009 Jersey Shortie your my new hero on LS! Thank you for your intellectual response about women. You make all of us proud
silktricks Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Okay then prove it. BUT it has to be research that is stating true facts about women vs. men. You can't go on about what you with out enough evidence of personal experience unless you have proven facts that are done in a facility where they test these theories out. The problem here is that you've shown by what you've posted that you believe garbage to be "true facts". The article was demeaning in general and fraught with ridiculous assumptions. For example: 4. Thinking Neuropsychologist Ruben Gur of the University of Pennsylvania used brain scans to show that when a man's brain is in a resting state, at least 70 percent of his brain is shut down. On the other hand, when women were resting, at least 90 percent of their brain was active, confirming that women are always thinking, thinking, thinking. The man wants the remote control and a little peace and quiet; she wants to talk. A fact was stated. When a man's brain is resting, 70 percent is down - a woman's 90 percent active. I'll accept that this is true (though not having seen the test results nor the range of people scanned, I'm accepting it only for purposes of illustration). However, the assumption that this means that women are always thinking is drivel. Maybe it means that a man's brain is more efficient than a woman's is. Maybe it means that men are more evolved and the brain knows enough to rest, maybe it means that women rest less because of their need to be semi-alert at all times to take care of children. But it certainly doesn't mean that "The man wants the remote control and a little peace and quiet." The second corollary mentioned in the article, that women are thinking - therefore women want to talk is also pretty skewed. I personally know a number of women who talk constantly, but rarely think.... And I'm not even going to touch the idea that men as a whole are better at math than women as a whole. The article was demeaning to men at an obvious level, but it was also demeaning to women and categorized them as truly capable in only the certain areas where women have historically been accepted. It was a crap article.

Seriously you three make it easier for the rest of us to point out why your not thrilled about the article and its not about the fact its from a woman's POV... There was no 'bullying' and to characterize the men debating you this way is sadly typical. Just like calling us narrow-minded, insecure, defensive, or the bad guys. Shaming tactics. Note none of us 'bullies' said such things about you. Just that you failed to back up your statement. So far I have seen three studies that have found no real difference between men and women. If there was a noticable difference I'd expect it to be shown in most if not all of the tests. It doesn't matter how many (women) talk about this difference if they are all repeating something that makes them feel better, without being demonstrably true. And you can bet if I'd posted an article or said 'it's been scientifically proven that women are bad at driving' there would be many women rightly asking me for that scientific proof.
bac Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Males and females are different and this is good and bad at the same time. Some details of the article sound wierd but the general idea is that females are disappointed in their relationships with men. Men can not understand females at all. Even worse, they see everything just opposite to what it is in reality. They want to believe in what suits their brains best and they do not want to know truth. When I start to explain them that I am different in many ways including sexually they just can not figure out what the hell I am talkng about. They expect a female to be a mini-man sexually, emotionally and intelectually. As a result of all this differences I have no sexual satisfaction and no emotional and intelectual connection with men. They can not understand any of my needs, emotions, thoughts. It is like talking to a stone.

Just like calling us narrow-minded, insecure, defensive, or the bad guys. Shaming tactics. Note none of us 'bullies' said such things about you. Just that you failed to back up your statement. Your putting words in my mouth, not only that put slightly twisting what I originally stated. Manipulation tactic and kind of reversed psychology play as well. So far I have seen three studies that have found no real difference between men and women. If there was a noticable difference I'd expect it to be shown in most if not all of the tests. Why do I need to gather more evidence? You were given two hands and brain, right? Then go look up the information yourself and stop trying to battle me on the difference here. It doesn't matter how many (women) talk about this difference if they are all repeating something that makes them feel better, without being demonstrably true. No its about how bias you all are being about women in general. You seem to have this unresolved issue towards women by the way you write up the responses and its not hard to see it by what words your using to make your points. And you can bet if I'd posted an article or said 'it's been scientifically proven that women are bad at driving' there would be many women rightly asking me for that scientific proof. Actually women are bad drivers if they are tired, have to go to the bathroom, are using the cell phone, putting on make up, or have noisy children in their car. Other than that most women are decent drivers unless they are very new to the driving and never truly practice as much as they should (i.e. 16-18), other than that most women CAN drive, not saying all, just most...
Author vanilla87 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Posted September 17, 2009 Bac is about more so guys that don't: A)Get along with women very well B)Don't have a lot of female friends C)Grew up with a mother that screwed up their way of thinking about women D) Their father never treated women correctly The men I know that have a lot of women in their lives are some of the most understanding when it comes to women. They are still guys, but they take the time to actually listen and understand where you are coming from. And they are the most secure with their sexuality and I know for a fact none of them are gay if thats what any of the guys start thinking here, then your insecure about something in yourself... thats all name calling and blame is usually, being insecure about something in yourself that you wish you had, but don't so people end up belittling and bring down people to their level. Its sad really... thats why guys are always verbally picking on each other in their group of friends... its that whole macho thing they do to prove they are still a manly-man.

A hint about debating (since you claim to enjoy one), it helps to provide examples that actually prove your point. You provided examples that not only were vague, but actually countered your own assertions. You claim there is bias in this thread against women, yet your own commentary on the article was full of generalizations and blanket statements about the apparently defiencies in men, mostly from your own perspective. You seem to be taking this personally. No one is trying to shame you or put you down, they simply want you to employ reasonable and fair tactics when trying to prove a point.
The Collector Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Your putting words in my mouth, not only that put slightly twisting what I originally stated. Manipulation tactic and kind of reversed psychology play as well. Those were the exact words you used. Just like you are now accusing me of manipulation tactics and reverse psychology when all I am doing is politely debating you. Why do I need to gather more evidence? You were given two hands and brain, right? Then go look up the information yourself and stop trying to battle me on the difference here. It is generally accepted that if someone claims something to be scientifically true, the burden of proof is on that person to show it, not me or anyone else to disprove it. I was skeptical of the multi-tasking claim and wanted some evidence. That's not battling you, and neither will I stop because you don't welcome dissent or debate. No its about how bias you all are being about women in general. You seem to have this unresolved issue towards women by the way you write up the responses and its not hard to see it by what words your using to make your points. That's in your mind. Other women have noted the anti-male bias and lack of evidence or smart conclusions in the article you posted. Actually women are bad drivers if they are tired, have to go to the bathroom, are using the cell phone, putting on make up, or have noisy children in their car. Other than that most women are decent drivers unless they are very new to the driving and never truly practice as much as they should (i.e. 16-18), other than that most women CAN drive, not saying all, just most... That's so not the point. Can you see that? It's about if I had said that, or anything else that said men were better at women in some brain function, women would demand evidence. And they'd be right to do so. What I think happened is that you found an article that seemed true to you because a. some of it has merit, and b. it denigrates men and says women are superior. You probably didn't notice the gender bias, but it made you feel good, and posted it here. Then when any of it was criticized and disputed you had a little temper tantrum and called all the men horrible bullies who had with issues with women rather than debate the points that had been raised.
BCCA Posted September 17, 2009 Posted September 17, 2009 Vanilla, all you have to do is admit you cant find anything to support your statement that men cannot multitask, and women can. You posted a study that did not support your argument at all, obviously its going to be used against you. Posting nothing would have lent your argument far more support. It is generally accepted that if someone claims something to be scientifically true, the burden of proof is on that person to show it, not me or anyone else to disprove it. I was skeptical of the multi-tasking claim and wanted some evidence. That's not battling you, and neither will I stop because you don't welcome dissent or debate. Of course it is, and she knows that full well. She just put her foot in her mouth, and probably didnt realize she was going to get called out on her claim of 'scientific studies that prove' mens lack of multitasking skills. 'Find it yourself' is the ultimate cop out. No its about how bias you all are being about women in general. You seem to have this unresolved issue towards women by the way you write up the responses and its not hard to see it by what words your using to make your points. You posted this article, now are claiming other people have bias against the other sex, and youre accusing people of using reverse psychology? What I think happened is that you found an article that seemed true to you because a. some of it has merit, and b. it denigrates men and says women are superior. You probably didn't notice the gender bias, but it made you feel good, and posted it here. Then when any of it was criticized and disputed you had a little temper tantrum and called all the men horrible bullies who had with issues with women rather than debate the points that had been raised. Exactly, well stated.
Author vanilla87 Posted September 17, 2009 Author Posted September 17, 2009 I just love how you three posters above me are so fixated on my other post that you didn't even glance or mention the fact that I posted a psychological/sociological explanation about men... it very entertaining to know that one statement is holding true from the article about men and how much they think and how much of the right half of the brain they use. See your all fixated on the details, the parts that are moving things along. But you don't see the big picture which is why I'm still laughing and able to keep posting and trying to make points about other things in relation to how men are 99% of the time in the united states. Ahhh you three keep me very amused with your passive-aggressive attitudes about your opinions and the topic at hand that your so trying to persuade me to jump on board and completely get behind 100%. You are going to realize that its a catch 22 cause either party of this argument is correct and incorrect. I know I'm wrong about some things, thats true, but so are you as well. I just love how this will very end cause all four of use are very stubborn, determined, and dead set on trying to prove someone wrong and be the victor in this discussion. Sooner or later someone will be correct and place some good wisdom for this topic. Till then I'm not throwing in the towel till there is enough to say that both sides are happy. Not just for me or any woman here, but for men as well. Its called creating a balance for the sexes...
northstar1 Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 I believe we are still waiting for you to provide some scientific evidence to your assertions. That is all.
BCCA Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Wow you are the queen of cop outs, arent you? Nothing in your entire post had any relevancy to the discussion at hand, and you continue to avoid admitting that you mispoke earlier. But you don't see the big picture which is why I'm still laughing and able to keep posting and trying to make points about other things in relation to how men are 99% of the time in the united states. That doesnt even qualify as a coherent statement. Youre litterally making this up as you go, but whatever floats your boat. Its called creating a balance for the sexes... What is? You dont even know what youre saying, do you?
The Collector Posted September 18, 2009 Posted September 18, 2009 Like I said, I wouldn't be too upset if it turned out women were better than men at multi-tasking. I've certainly heard it said before. Men and women do seem to be better at some things than others. If a scientific study - or better, many scientific studies - had shown that was the case I'd have happilly accepted it. But it seems - and yes I did some research of my own too - that no such evidence exists, so I'm done with the subject, and the debate on this issue. I don't care about forcing anyone to admit they were wrong, though I did say such a thing as a joke because this was another thing the article said women were good at and men were bad at - and with equal lack of evidence in my opinion. Ok, off to play with my TV remote. Flick! Flick! Wow, it's just like hunting mammoths!

Ok, off to play with my TV remote. Flick! Flick! Wow, it's just like hunting mammoths! See now a good example of a less bent out of shape type response to the previous types. Makes it easier for me to actually be more on your side for your point of view. Trying to force it down my throat and say that "women are this" and "you all are that way" and "what this doesn't make sense" or "I'm still waiting...", that only makes me more resistant in wanting to even consider half of what is being said and skip your posts and read others who are a little more open minded. But here you actually give a great response to the one post that was never commented till after I mentioned it. Its the fact that your the only one who listened, absorbed, took action and was smart about the way you presented the material/evidence of your opinions. Most articles on the topic are hard to find. I did find one, years ago stating something about women and multitasking, I'm taking like 5-6 years ago, so it would be hard to find, thats why I couldn't exactly get the article I needed and no its not an excuse due to the fact I had an entirely different system and it wasn't my computer so I couldn't just save it as a bookmark and what not. I never thought to email it to myself at the time nor did i think of printing it out, then again I was only 17 at the time and too busy with highschool c**p to even consider it useful then. Anyway, what you stated in the very first sentence is what made me ease up, cause the other two seem like they are too unwilling to admit that its not a bad idea or that its could be possible, I said COULD. So thats what irked me that neither one would just be all "well if it is true..." or "if the evidence showed..", its the fact that they just threw the idea out the window and thought "pfft women and multitasking... HA! Never going to happen....", thats what it looked like from my perspective. So thank you for being open minded about it now and I'm on the same page with you about this, I'm over it just tired of it all. I just wanted to post something that would be interesting, a good read, enlightening, and make people think about something other than the stupid stuff of the world... but no people had to go make it into something that it wasn't... oh well I won't post anymore articles even if its truly helpful...

You werent exactly interested in having an actual debate. You presented something as fact, and when you were questioned, you litterally avoided responding and threw a fit. Im not trying to be rude here, but you shouldnt act like you were interested in debate, you just wanted to make blanket statments without backing them up. You litterally said something was scientifically proven, and then acted put out when we wanted to see the proof. If I said women were stupid, its scientifically proven, you would ask for this proof, no? Anyway, what you stated in the very first sentence is what made me ease up, cause the other two seem like they are too unwilling to admit that its not a bad idea or that its could be possible, I said COULD. So thats what irked me that neither one would just be all "well if it is true..." or "if the evidence showed..", its the fact that they just threw the idea out the window and thought "pfft women and multitasking... HA! Never going to happen....", thats what it looked like from my perspective. You said a statement you made was scientifically proven, a couple of us wanted to see it. I didnt say it was absolutely not true, but if I said something was proven, I wouldnt have a problem sharing the proof. If you dont have the proof, dont make the statement, its really that simple. Point being, you didnt have proof because none exists, so you should not claim otherwise. Put yourself in our shoes here. So thank you for being open minded about it now and I'm on the same page with you about this, I'm over it just tired of it all. I just wanted to post something that would be interesting, a good read, enlightening, and make people think about something other than the stupid stuff of the world... but no people had to go make it into something that it wasn't... oh well I won't post anymore articles even if its truly helpful... I know you might not see this, but that article might of just said 'men are stupid, women are superior'. It was obviously written to slight men in general, and presented us as cavemen like idiots. This IS the stupid stuff of the world, and its not truly helpful to anyone; it just gives women the idea men are dumb, and pisses men off.
