Are women allowed to make more "mistakes" than men?

Question

Are women allowed to make more "mistakes" than men?

Answer 1

It seems that way.

Answer 2

Yes.  

Our society is more generous toward women who make mistakes than men.  You can clearly see this within our (in)justice system where female criminals are being punished far less severely than male one.

Answer 3

not really but the consequences of there mistakes are less severe.

Answer 4

Yes.  It's actually in the Constitution.

Answer 5

I've watched men get away with some riduculous things as well as women.  I think the situation and the people involved determine the answer.  In general, no...I think it's pretty even.

Answer 6

Yes, I've been excused for crying, losing my car keys, forgetting to take off my name tag, leaving my gas pump open, forgetting my receipt at the register, cooing & awwing at a baby, making smooches at a puppy or kitten, & accidentally kicking the pedicure lady in the face...

I keed, I keed.

Answer 7

Yes it appears that way.  Women and men who break the same laws are not treated equally.  I think society is more lenient on women.  Then again I'm a guy and prejudiced...

Answer 8

Yes, unless it involves hand-grenades.

Answer 9

I don't believe so.  If a man makes a mistake it is blamed on  the woman to cover their a**,

Answer 10

Troll Shark... I like the name and the avatar, not lying at all about what you truly are, are you?

Answer 11

People make mistakes.

Answer 12

Oh I don't know I think they are about equal in that department. Do you really need me to point them out? LOL

Mistakes are the portals of discovery, they shouldn't be seen as a bad thing; rather experience and a full life. Mistakes are a part of being human. Appreciate your mistakes for what they are: precious life lessons that can only be learned the hard way. Unless it's a fatal mistake, which, at least, others can learn from them.

Answer 13

who the h**l told you that? we all make mistakes because we are all humans and we make them whether we are allowed to or not.

Answer 14

It just seems that way. If I make a mistake I will usually fess up to it, if my husband makes one he will swear to his death bed it was not a mistake. So I guess by that reasoning I make more mistakes.

Answer 15

Not in my world.

Answer 16

We as a society generally see it as more acceptable possibly as a result of historical hangovers such as the idea that women are generally more irrational and emotional etc.

Answer 17

Yeah, especially if they cry!

Answer 18

Yes they are, though I'll never find out why, since feminists have promoted them as 'infintely superior to men'. I thought that applied to intellect and abilities too, not just the skill of flexing vocal cords.
