Yes, I have...Nice to have you back, wise donkey :). Yes, I have come across so many people who generalize -- men are like this, women are like that blah blah blah. About women being better cooks. Well, everyone longs for their mom's food, but the best hotels have male chefs. Girls being better at Maths. Well, I always topped my class in Maths, and even the boys from my schooldays will vouch for that :). So, generalization is a bunch of crap.<br /><br />I particularly agree with this line of yours that men and women have different standards on which they are judged. It happens all over the world, it happens even amongst the most progressive. Hey, that maths teacher must be her students' nightmare. Especially for maths, one needs a good teacher :).<br /><br />about your filing, man, that's pretty amazing.<br /><br />And, did you realize that your blogger friends would just not allow you to take a short hiatus in peace :).

A few days on twitter I had pointed out that...<b>WDM,</b><br /><br />A few days on twitter I had pointed out that in peak hours in Mumbai locals, women travel quite comfortably, whereas men have to literally risk their lives by hanging by the bars, windows and the footboard. Even within the car, I wouldn't be surprised if someone gets suffocated. So I pointed out that one coach less should be reserved for women, so that the overall risk to men's lives decreases. My basic premise was that a man's life is more precious than a woman's comfort. Then, I also pointed out that in the BEST buses, reserving 12 seats for women is too much! The only instance where women are disadvantaged compared to men is when they are pregnant, and certainly the proportion of traveling-by-bus pregnant women is not so high that 12 seats should be reserved for women! But I was confronted quite aggressively by a Pakistani woman and one male had argued against my points. I don't know if you would term it as generalized hatred for men.<br /><br />In my school days, most teachers used to be partial for girls. Even when the answer written would be absolutely same, girls used to get better marks (perhaps, because of better impression or handwriting). Also, in MBBS, girls were always assessed more leniently, and that too almost by male examiners. Female examiners used to be neutral in my opinion. Of course, this might not qualify as hatred of men, but discrimination against them. But perhaps it's difficult to separate discrimination and hatred/love? :)<br /><br />Boys do significantly better than girls at IIT-JEE. But girls do slightly better at board exams and medical entrance exams. So, it seems truly girls and boys possess different skill sets. But to generalize would be foolish! ;) There are girls who enter IITs and there are boys who top board exams and enter the medical field.<br /><br />In my online interactions also, those argue the best and analyze issues the best are more commonly men. E.g., Harmanjit Singh, http://2nd-son.blogspot.com/ Quirky Indian, Stupidosaur, Matt McCormick, Alfonzo Fyfe, Atanu Dey and many such. But despite having gone through easily more than 1000 blogs, I have found significantly fewer women who I admire for their ability to apply logic and argue. One might suggest that there might be a selection bias, but perhaps there is none (18 females, and 21 males - this is for the first time I have counted sex-wise those on my blog roll, so there was no attempt to balance out things gender-wise). Yet, the number of females and males are comparable, which means, there is something about female thinking that is less possessed by men. Women are more perceptive of subconscious feelings in my observation. My physiology teacher had told that females have more cone cells in the retina (so they appreciate colors better, i.e., can identify more number of frequencies than males - though, haven't verified this). So, it should not come as a surprise if we find men and women significantly different. :)Ketanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02622410643454108685noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9779736.post-9139683636651509402010-09-22T17:27:43.082+05:302010-09-22T17:27:43.082+05:30rgb i am pretty sure men will hate men who Want to...rgb i am pretty sure men will hate men who Want to be homemakers.wise donkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084116949920234832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9779736.post-13360395249708074692010-09-22T17:26:20.990+05:302010-09-22T17:26:20.990+05:30unknown,

(forget herself) but the prof that you mention, i am not sure he would prefer a female boss to a male boss. i am in no way suggesting that no guy would prefer a female boss. i think for many people ultimately its about competence. <br />but i just wanted to point out that, while you saw only one spectrum of bias, in a diff spectrum the prof might have a different bias. if the same girls whom he supported, graduated and became his colleague and then later his boss, he is not going to view them with same kindness. but he might have been kinder if u had become his boss:D pure speculation:)<br /><br />whatever his pref, any bias is bad news. sometimes it creates more bias. for eg, if that prof had been a bengali and if the students had less exposure with bengalis, next time they see another bengali prof, they are going to be more suspicious.<br /><br />will check twitterwise donkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084116949920234832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9779736.post-63188124218216584102010-09-22T17:19:08.955+05:302010-09-22T17:19:08.955+05:30bikram do u think they hate you just because you a...bikram do u think they hate you just because you are a guy, and would not hate you if you had been a girl.<br />there are men who hate men of course (like saddam and bush etc, but there is a difference between just hating someone because they belong to a gender or hating someone for a diff reason but they happen to be in that gender)<br /><br />actually i don't follow the list all the time, but i love the framework and structure a lists and databases give me. otherwise i would be too lazy :)wise donkeyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02084116949920234832noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9779736.post-61489274974715611822010-09-22T16:53:56.444+05:302010-09-22T16:53:56.444+05:30i think women like making list.. my sister used to...i think women like making list.. my sister used to make a list of songs that she liked.. <br /><br />may be she is write may b men are gd at cooking why else would almost all cooks would be men.. maths i dont know i m bad at maths..Mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03259452145796716118noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9779736.post-8446279443056074722010-09-22T16:10:32.638+05:302010-09-22T16:10:32.638+05:30ok one by one...
