Every man has likely tried to navigate the complex world that is a woman’s mind. But unless you’ve been in their shoes, many things will always remain difficult to comprehend.
To have an idea of how the female brain works, we have Instagram pages like Girl Urges that offer some insight. With more than 900,000 followers, it is abundant with memes and social media posts that may make a woman blurt out, “Yup, been there, done that.”

Experts have actually explored the differences between the male and female brains. For one, researchers discovered that men excel at single tasks, while women are better at multitasking.
Other findings reveal that women are better than men at word memory, social cognition, and verbal abilities. Meanwhile, the male brain is found to be more adaptive at spatial processing and sensorimotor skills.
These differences in skills are typically connected to brain chemistry. According to Northwestern Medicine, men are found to have stronger connections from the front of their brains to the back. This may result in stronger motor skills and heightened perception.
Meanwhile, women have stronger side-to-side connections, making them better intuitive thinkers and analyzers.
Our brains’ gray matter is an essential tissue that aids our bodies in processing information. It plays a significant role in crucial brain functions like sensory perception and memory, as well as muscle control and movement.
Northwestern Medicine reports that while women have more gray matter, they use more of the white matter, which is responsible for facilitating information processing. This explains their innate ability to multitask and excel at language.
Every time I watch Cash Cab (the local version), I wonder what'd happen if someone absolutely HAMMERED got in. Would they still play? 😅
Here’s an interesting finding: the male and female brains start off similarly. But thanks to the differences in experience growing up, they begin to become starkly different.
“Brain connections change as a result of experience and learning. When the same signals are processed over and over, those neural networks get stronger,” researchers Rob Pascale and Lou Privamera explained in an article for Psychology Today.
Being patient on their bad days is the east part. It's being patient on my bad days where I really put in the effort.
Tucci gang Tucci gang Tucci gang. Thirty-two years in the biz. I'm a big fan of his. He got my respect for his range. He should have been Doctor Strange. The Devil Wears Prada was sick. If you don't like Stan, you're a d**k. He adds value to your flick. (Look up the SNL skit/song.)
Neuropsychiatrist Dr. Louann Brizendine shed more light on these differences in a 2007 speech at the Mission Bay campus of the University of California, San Francisco. Dr. Brizendine noted that every human begins with a female brain, then it develops into a male brain eight weeks after conception.
She also stated that the excess amount of testosterone shrinks the brain’s communication center, which also explains why women are believed to be better verbal communicators.
Dr. Brizendine’s findings also revealed that women use approximately 20,000 words per day, compared to 7,000 daily words for men. She attributed this to the woman’s larger emotional center, which also explains why females may remember emotional details of an argument.
High level manipulation, and very cool! Next try replacing coffee with caffeine-free coffee....
All you downvoters on FreeTheUnicorn, do you know that the comment he posted is ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!?!?
Don't know how to tell your boss you value habitually coming in late to work because you just HAD to have an iced coffee? Simple. Just keep doing it. You should get two or three more goes at it. Then you'll be asking yourself why coffee value was more important than paycheck value.
My GF asked me that on a text when we first started dating. I wrote back "a lacy pink slip". We hadn't been dating long enough for her to know for sure I wasn't being serious.
You just can't say "buy me some tampons, please", you must be specific as to what kind you want. If you aren't specific, don't get all flustered if he doesn't buy the kind you want. Age old dilemna - communication. They can't read your mind.
You have to take a picture of the box and text it to him. Even then there’s still a chance he’ll f**k up and get the wrong size.
Load More Replies...Why not? Do you have a problem with a man who is considerate enough to ensure he buys the right tampons and shows a sense of humour?
I genuinely find this hilarious and a guy who is not scared to buy feminine products should be applauded! That said, every woman I know (including myself) has a preferred brand and she should told him and also given him a list of alternates if the preferred wasn't available.
Load More Replies...My husband after seeing the same tipe/brand for years in the bathroom has memorized which one I use...I asked once to buy pads for me and he answered "I know.." best answer in the world!
I do the shopping in our house, and with two grown-up daughters that means I also buy the sanitary products. How did I know what to buy the first time? I asked them and they told me. It's not difficult. "What sort do you want?" / "The green medium flow".
Bless my husband, we have 3 daughters and he's learnt all the preferred type/brand/size for all 4 of us since he does the shopping
I'd be grateful he even cared enough to ask. Or even be willing to buy them in the first place.
Any such request must be accompanied by a clear photograph showing brand, specific type and size etc.
In this day and age of smart phones a pic of the product you want should help...
I never asked or needed my husband to buy those supplies for me. I always did it myself.
Yeah, just buy them yourself. Why would you depend on someone else to get you something you should have stocked up on?
because a) emergencies happen b) he who can f**k has to be adult enough to buy tampons, toilett paper and condoms

My last BF's father told me he was uncomfortable with us living together while unmarried. I replied, "My dude, you're on your third marriage, and married to the sister of your second wife. You should probably be less judgmental."
@UKGrandad Everyone’s weight can fluctuate, and women’s weight will for various reasons far beyond our control. She’s not necessarily eating any more than usual, it’s her body doing it in reaction to or preparation for a physical change or reaction. Even the jeans with a little Lycra on the denim can be temporarily tight during those times. When I accidentally eat something I don’t know has gluten in it, I bloat like crazy until the gluten is out of my system and I’m back to normal. Even before the gluten stuff, before menopause I would gain anywhere from 3 to 5 lbs of water weight right before my period. I am not a glutton gaining weight because I’m stuffing myself and not exercising, I am experiencing physical changes I often have no control over, no matter how careful I am about eating and exercising.
That only works if they put the seat back so the taller one doesn't have to squeeze into the drivers seat like a pretzel
Emotions are ALWAYS real and valid. They may not be rational. They may be exacerbated by hormones. But they're ALWAYS real and valid.
As for me, I always believe everything i see in the tabloids, yup yup yup.
I don't get why the OP thinks this is funny. Maybe it's technically his car. Maybe driving makes her anxious. Maybe he gets car sick if he's not driving. There's any number of reasons he's driving beyond what I assume she thinks is sexism.
I'm needy in that I must info dump about my latest hyperfixation. Come on sweetie, I'm gonna learn you about the Napoleonic Wars today.
Yeah, 98% of Pokémon is about Pikachu! It's time we give the other monsters some love
I'll be weak, and pain free. I'm not playing Macho Man at that time of the month.
Yep. Don't give your time and attention to a merely fickle stalker.
For decades, I said I'd take all my vices back once I retired, but I didn't. I lost interest in them instead.
Santa delivers the current year's rewards overnight on Xmas eve. Starts a new Naughty/Nice list on NYD. For the week between, he's off duty. Go nuts!
When I was pregnant with with my oldest, I would crave eggs. Then, when they were ready to eat, my stomach would go "NOPE!" and I'd get nauseous. Hormones are weird.
Approximately nothing is true of every girl, or every member of any group you can name.
