Why why why why WHY?
This is something random, but I really want to work out why this is: Why do (most) guys insist on not reading instructions or maps, thinking and saying that they know how it works or is done, or where to go? I mean sure, if you’ve done it heaps of times and you’ve learnt it, ok, but so many times… I find it so stupid really.
The typical road trip, for example, with the guy driving and the girl trying uselessly to guide the guy, who insists he knows the way and isn’t listening, with the map. I mean come on…
Anyways, that was just something random that I wanted to rant about =] Oh, and I DO read instructions, and I DO read maps, and I DO listen to other people’s advice and such with things. You might’ve noticed that I’m not exactly a typical guy.
It’s because guys are insecure and they feel superior if they don’t need to resort to looking at a map, GPS, itinerary, guide etc
That being said, it can also be applied to installing software. However, there IS no need to look at the manual (unless you’re installing CA software, that stuff is a bitch) because it’s so painfully straightforward.
Does that mean that you’re a typical girl?
