What’s missing from this study?
Women and gay men are likely to be the worst drivers, a new study has shown. Research has revealed that both perform poorly in tasks involving navigation and spatial awareness when compared to heterosexual men.
Psychologists at Queen Mary, University of London, who conducted the study, believe the findings mean driving in a strange environment would be more difficult for gay men and women than for straight male motorists. Both tend to rely on local landmarks to get around, and are also slower to take in spatial information.
The computer-based tests were carried out on 140 volunteers, and demonstrated that gay men, straight women and lesbians navigated in a similar way, sharing the same weaknesses. ÂÂ
All woman: Liz Stephans, of Breitbart.TV,
admits that although she uses a GPS locator, she’s still prone to get lost.

Best. Picture. EVAH!
Mostly it’s probably just genetic cause when you track the wildebeast far from camp you have to be able to get back I guess. There’s somes what hunt and somes what gather and the tribe needs both.
N.O’B meant the picture that accompanies teh Tehlegraph article.
I still worry that she’s getting rust on her top but let’s not go there.
And yet us guys get all the flak for never asking directions.
Just. Wow. Finepic.
Woe, the globe~!
McGehee – From the wisdom of Red Green:
Why Mature Men Don’t Ask for Directions When We’re Lost (Red Green)
“Okay it all comes down to pride. We’re out there driving around in our own vehicle, burning gas, wearing sunglasses, looking good. People who see us driving by would never guess that we have no idea where we are. And we don’t want to tell them. Men don’t enjoy the concept of going up to total strangers and saying “You may not know this but I’m a moron.â€Â
In contrast the woman we’re traveling with is often very anxious to share this knowledge with the world. It somehow eases her burden. To women, getting lost on a trip is a blameless act of nature  to men it’s a personal failure.
He knew where he was when he left homeâ€â€he doesn’t know where he is now. Somewhere along the line he crossed the line from the world he knows into the world he doesn’t know. To a man this is how he felt when he got married or had kids.
If he admits he‘s lost in the car, he’ll have to admit that he’s lost everywhere and that’s way too much to ask. So just bite your tongue and circle the block a few more times. Men aren’t lost, they just go the long way.â€Â
I think Red Green is a funny guy. But this study says guys don’t get lost, and who the [bleep] is Red Green to argue with SCIENCE!!??
He’s just a guy gettin’ by with duct tape and the help of his friends.
Science *scoff* when has science, other than mad science, had any pull at Possum Lake?
SCIENCE!!!!
