I read a scientific report a few years ago.

It said that it’s been scientifically proven that men and women’s brains function differently.

Apparently women’s brains are generally better at multi tasking whereas men’s brains are more adapted to focused concentration. It also said that men’s brain are naturally better at spacial awareness. Explains why men are generally better at parking and judging distances when it comes to driving.

As a general rule (doesn’t apply to everyone though) Men are technically better than women at driving but women are statistically safer drivers than man. That’s because some women lack confidence so drive carefully and slowly. Where as male drivers are generally more confident but with that confidence speeds are faster with more risk, so more chance of accidents. Women used to pay lower insurance pemiums then men, not sur if that’s still the case.

More women have driving licences than men, there are more women in the general population than men. But the accident rates saying men have more accidents don't tell the whole story when you consider the average mileage men drive to women. They base it on the fact that more women have driving licences

Stand on any street corner and count the number of men driving all vehicles against women and the man to woman ratio will be incredibly higher, unless you're stood outside a school at 8.30 am

I do agree that men drive faster in general, but speed has been proven in a number of surveys to not be the sole, or even major cause of accidents. If speed was the cause of a particular accident, you're right it's most likely to be a man at fault, but speed doesn't account for most accidents

Most accidents are caused by stopping in the road for no reason whatsoever, pulling out then stopping at junctions and roundabouts at exactly the same time as the driver behind is looking to the right assuming the car in front has gone, bumping cars against the wall when trying to get on the driveway, scraping someones car in a car park, not having sufficient clutch control and flying off into the back of someone when starting to move in a traffic jam. And these things are very likely to be a woman driver.

That's true
I have a pet hate with BMW drivers, they are the most disgusting tw@ts behind a wheel. I know they're not all bad before BMW drivers start

I like BMW cars, but I won't have one because I don't want to be a BMW driver.

It's a woman thing saying men can't multi task, men can multi task just fine. It's just that when we have something to do we apply logic and do each job in turn and in the simplest order to achieve the best results. Women don't, they tackle everything head on, have a nervous breakdown and blame men for it.

I opened up my browser the other day on MSN and there was an article explaining why men are better at directions than women. So I thought I've gotta read this.

And apparently it's mens fault that women are no good at directions, apparently because they have been kept in their place by men for so long they have never had to find their own way in life going back as far the hunter gatherer era.

I thought "that's typical" when they're proven to be rubbish at something they can still blame men for it

A sure sign of ignorance and a poor education is the inability to entertain a point of view that differs from your own.

Another sign of ignorance is to point blank say that someone with a different opinion is wrong. It closes down all options for sensible discussion

Well done,
MSN have an article explaining why men have much better directional sense than women on their website right now this minute

When you read between the lines it is all mens fault, and in some parts of the article you don't have to even read between the lines.
Disagree all you like I don't really care

But the one truth of the matter is men cause less accidents on the road than women
Two men swerving to avoid some dozy bint doing something stupid = two male accidents

And women have more accidents per mile driven than men it's just that men drive 10 x more mileage than women

It's mad that you've racked up 334 posts. I'm actually a United fan and I haven't managed that many. Are you planning on getting it up to the 1000 mark so that more people take you seriously when slagging United off? It's long game trolling and i'd be mildly impressed at the dedication if it wasn't so sad. I feel a twinge of guilt that I have nothing better to do than read these forums, but you're taking it to the next level with by taking the time to infiltrate this forum with that agenda. I'd have so much more time for what you're doing if you'd not given yourself up in the first few posts. There are a lot of us that will always remember that you're a pig so these months of building up your credibility will be wasted. You might as well make a new account and start again.
 
He seems a Blade to me. Just has very negative views and is very pessimistic, but it takes all sorts I suppose.

I would encourage him to start taking enjoyment out of supporting United at the moment, as right now, it is as good as it gets for us with positivity from the club and we are on an upward spiral. Yes the club has made mistakes in the past and has right royally tested our resolve as supporters, but we have come through it and it means all the more to us when we do actually achieve something. You can't tell me that Chelsea or Man City fans enjoyed winning the Premiership more than we enjoyed winning league 1 with 100 points after years of being shit in that league and having suffered Adkins, before CW finally came in and sorted us out.

Now is the time to enjoy supporting United with all the other big clubs playing us on an even playing field. We have a club to be proud of, and whilst I can sometimes be pissed off at United, I'm always been proud to call myself a Blade. Always have been, even in the shit years.

My advice to Topplayersleave is enjoy the ride more - it doesn't cost you anything and you will only benefit in a positive way.

Being a Unitedite is a pleasure in life and is something that I will be until I'm no more.

If you're going to slag me off for slagging United off you could at least do it on a thread where I've slagged United off

I think some of this was covered in a previous reply, but women are generally more cautious, less aggressive and more considerate. They aren't "competitive" in the same way that men are. They don't feel personally affronted if you overtake them. They don't feel the need to try and beat you. In these respects I think women are safer drivers. However...;) they are unduly hesitant at times and this causes confusion with other drivers and may increase the risk of an accident. They can't make their mind up quickly, but they can change it quickly and do something unexpected. They are also not as competent at controlling or manoeuvring a vehicle, this is something to do with spatial ability, i.e. being able to judge space and distances. So, I'd conclude that as long as you understand these differences, you're much safer having women drivers around you on the road than blokes.

I don't agree that most blokes drive like f'ng idiots. I think most blokes (and women) drive responsibly most of the time. I think that everyone lapses in concentration from time to time and makes mistakes. I've been driving since the 1970's. I don't do so many miles now - maybe 1,500 miles a month/18,000 miles a year, but I used to be doing double that at one time. I think I'm a pretty decent driver, but of course I would, I'm a man! I'm also aware though that I do occasionally make mistakes, so when another motorist around me makes a mistake I don't let it ruin my day. I don't let it annoy me. I don't feel the need to call him (or her) a F'ng idiot for example, or make rude gestures. I used to when I was young and immature - but some of us get wiser as we get older and have an ability to question our own thoughts and feelings - and the conclusion I came to on that was...it isn't worth getting upset about. That could easily have been me who just made that mistake, or it could have been my wife or son. We are all only human. I think that drivers who get annoyed with other drivers because they have made a mistake need to go and get some help tbh - because it's really not very healthy!

There are some drivers though who don't just make mistakes - they are deliberately reckless, endangering the lives of others and their own. I'm afraid those are usually men, driving aggressively. I don't get annoyed with them either, I just hope to see them wrap their car around a tree or a lamp post in terms of retribution.

I've not noticed any correlation whatsoever between the cost of a car and how badly it is driven. I've noticed that the biggest driving hazards seem to come from the following categories:

1. Old people in little cars, like the Nissan Micra or Toyota Yaris. These folk often wear hats inside the car and drive really slowly and then do something totally unexpected.
2. Young "hot-hatch" brigade. Teenagers or early twenties kids, with baseball hats on back to front, in souped-up hot-hatches, like the Vauxhall Astra, Ford Fiesta, that type of car. They are wrestling with the hormones of youth and channel it through the tyres of their little hot-hatches, affording us screeching tyres and wheelies.
3. Aggressive middle-aged men that prefer speed to quality when choosing a car, so opt for cars like the Subaru or Mitsubishi or Honda Civic Type R. Something that they can burn people off with at the lights. That's really important to them.
4. The white van man. Bored with their mundane life and angry inside, desperate to take it out on other motorists.

None of these type of vehicles are in the particularly "expensive" bracket. But I realise it's the view of some, especially those who aren't able to afford a nice quality car, that the problem lies with owners of prestige brands. I think there's a far bigger problem with the groups I mention above.

I have to disagree I see people in the more expensive cars ,make poor decisions that they get away with due to the quality of the car

The only problem is they think they're better drivers than everyone else due to their car saving them from their poor decision making until they inevitably come across another idiot in a nice car who also thinks he's Lewis Hamilton and every ones late getting to work while the emergency services clear up the mess

I also have to say that age and even sex don't seem to be a factor, just a seemingly lack of awareness and ability overridden by a performance car

Poorly educated or not, I've got two degrees, the second of which is a master's in linguistics, where we learned that calling a woman a "dozy bint" is, in your phrase, a sign of ignorance.

But do you really believe we'd pay £5 million for him?
 

I love these Kop bogs rumours.

Is there a designated Kop bog where the Kop bog rumour man goes every game where he loudly proclaims the latest Kop bog rumour to the excited pissing masses?

I'd like to go and experience it for myself but unfortunately I have a very strong bladder so never get the chance.
