  1. Can you send me her number?

    I don't play basketball, but she's welcome to go play with her friends whenever she wants. And If it makes her happy, I'll even occasionally go sit in the stands and cheer her on.


  2. THANK YOU.

    The fact is, PEOPLE vary.

    And, yes, the way that people blithely say "males are thus-and-so; females are other-stuff" drives me up the wall (almost, but not quite, literally).

    It works both ways: Men aren't compassionate and can't express their feelings (or, heck, can't sew).

    Thus, about a billion people are defined as FREAKS.

    People who don't fit the stereotypes (even when they are based on some ability or quality being, in fact, more common to one s*x than the other) are told they aren't "TRULY" a [man, woman].

    People actually take this to heart, and agonize over whether they're "a real man/woman."

    Why DO this to people?

    Instead, why can't we just, FINALLY admit that PEOPLE vary. In lots of ways.

    A few of those ways are things that fall somewhat along s*x lines -- but even those characteristics are not universal to one s*x, and absent in the other.

    There is NO characteristic, except for placement and size of reproductive organs and the consequences thereof that are universal to all members of one s*x and absent in all members of the other.

    There are a lot of other types of variation among people that are also misunderstood or not grasped as legitimate and perfectly OK variations.

    But these s*x ones are perniscious and deeply damaging.

    If the "rules" simply don't apply to nearly a billion people, then they're pretty crappy rules, aren't they?

  3. No, obviously she has done a lot of things right.

  4. If that's true then something is really wrong with me. My dad made sure I could change tires, oil, and spark plugs before he even let me drive the dang car.

    I played soccer on a team, and football and basketball with the neighborhood kids. (We had the only hoop on the block.)

    As for nurturing...my brother treated my dolls better then I did, and that's saying something. I imagine whoever lives in that house now is still digging up doll body parts.

    I'm not all that into physics though, I'm more a chemistry/computer geek. Though I still really want to be a Medical Examiner, should I ever make enough money to pay for med school.

  5. yes, she is a man.   :P

  6. nah.

    my specialty is boats and outboard engines. your boat can't run? i'm your gal. steering funny? i'm your gal.

  7. No, not at all. She sounds inspiring.

  8. The world needs more women like that.  Rather then the millions of Paris Hilton type dimwits!

  9. I reckon if you can't change your own oil, or know what a spark plug is, then you shouldn't drive a car.  Personally, physics isn't my thing, but I respect intelligence.  And Logic is the key to the universe.  Nothing wrong with that woman!

  10. No...theres nothing wrong with her.

    (SKIP THIS IF YOU UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE RIGHT&LEFT BRAIN HEMISPHERES +)

    A woman's brain typically has a larger corpus collusum, which means women can transfer data between the right and left hemisphere faster than men. Men tend to be more left brained, while women have greater access to both sides.

    What this means:

    The left hemisphere is analytical, logical, precise, detail oriented, and capable of conceiving and executing plans. The left hemisphere has more gray matter, which means a greater density of nerve cell bodies, which gives its characteristic gray appearance. The left hemisphere is communicative, time sensitive, breaks down complicated patterns into component parts, and is heavily involved with planning. It is the happy, cheerful, more optimistic side of the brain. When there is good activity in the left frontal lobe people tend to be joyful and approach their lives with a positive zest for life. When the left hemisphere is hurt people are often depressed, negative, and irritable. Sixty percent of people who have a left frontal lobe stroke will develop a major depression within a year. Low activity in the left front side of the brain is a consistent brain-imaging finding in depression.

    The right hemisphere sees the big picture or gestalt of situations. It allows us to see the forest, while the left hemisphere is responsible for the trees. If you are at a party, the left hemisphere will recognize red, silk fabric; the right hemisphere will see a party dress. The right hemisphere tends to be dreamier, artistic, negative, fearful, anxious, mournful and pessimistic. It helps us recognizes familiar faces and is responsible for hunches. The right hemisphere has more white matter, long distance connections made of nerve cell tracks wrapped in a whitish lipid substance called myelin. The neurons of the right hemisphere are connected from farther distances, which allow it to draw on several different brain regions at a time to come up with broad, multifaceted but vague concepts (hunches). The right side of the brain also allows people to know when problems are present and when they should be taken seriously.

    Basically if your female you have a predisposition to being right brained (sensitive, nurturing. Espically because your hormones and the fact you have a V, means that you are programmed to care but thats actually a good thing and it doesnt mean you cant be logical) but thats not always the case.

    Society deems women outcasts because the culture in baseball and most sports seems to drift towards males showing that they are actually here on the planet for some reason. There not just here to ogly, but to entertain other men.

    In terms of the physics thing. Nowadays women arent excluded so much but during most of the time when physics was radiply advancing women were not allowed to attend universities or colleges. If a women tried they would make it very hard for her, take a look a maire curie. During those times they made it seem like a women wouldnt want to waste her time doing boring mens work...Instead! housework would make her man appreciate her while he did all the boring hard work at work for her.

    Anyway. Nowadays women are treated as either attractive bigbreasted 5luts with no brains or as the most repulsive thing on the planet for being a nerd.

    Because nerds apparently arent atractive, im guessing because they offend men, maybe because men still have the idea women are objects and should be good housewives or just stick to the things women are good at like Office work, (carrie s*x in the city much) and out of the field where men dominant like physics. This is not the case  in other places such as eurpoe.

    If you look at a car ad, its the women that doing the dancing and the guy explaining the technical bits.

  11. I am nurturing and I can shoot three points. You can be both.

  12. I'd find all that attractive.

    smart

    able to be self-reliant

    physically fit...all good

    --->dont know about the 'not nurturing' part though! (THAT one kind of needs to be there...'cause not nurturing = uncaring and that = cold and discompassionate, and i dont know how to want to cozy up with that)

  13. I work with a bunch of those. Except for the 3 pointer. But she is a strong in the paint.

  14. how can that be wrong? that woman sounds great.

    her parents we probably also brilliant. there was more than likely more testosterone present at her conception than is usual.

    nothing wrong here, the world would benefit from her finding a similar male to reproduce with.

  15. Nah MM, it just means that she rocks :D

  16. Wrong in what sense? Physically? Morally? By whose standards?

    Personally, I say each to their own, let her have fun with all that.

  17. I think it's logical to be nurturing.

  18. No way ...she is all woman. We need more of these type of women.

  19. No.  That's stupid.  

    Women can be whatever they want to be.  I know how to change my own oil.  I can change a tire, too.  Women do things smarter, not harder.  

    You should have seen my husband trying to heave-ho the dining room table yesterday.  I said, "Do you want some help?" He refused...  eventually, he collapsed, then went to get a soda in the kitchen... so I snuck in, turned the table on it's side, rolled it to where he wanted it, put the chairs around it and ran out into the yard an pretended to pull weeds...  you should have seen the look on his face!!!!  I do stuff like that all the time.

    People think you're weird if you don't want to have children.  I might change my mind some day, but as it stands now?  No way!  Kids freak me out.  

    There's nothing wrong with you.  Be who you are.

  20. I would say she's self-sufficient, and probably intimidating to the guys around here.

    I guess doing anything besides picking flowers and squattin' out babies isn't feminine by their high standards. :)

  21. I think shes awesome but probably out of my league

  22. No, but there's definitely something wrong with the people who think there is.

  23. There isn't something wrong with you for being yourself. You are intelligent, independent and unique. Thank God.

  24. I'm thinking she's in the guiness book of records...

    Aside from the cigarette, your icon is very cool!!

  25. There's nothing wrong with her.  She is accomplished and talented, but that does not make her better or worse than any other woman.

  26. h**l no, I am engaged to a woman like that!

    Good thing is that she does not subscribe to all those modern ideas that men are bumbling fools either.  There is no duty in the house that I cannot do (d**n, I can iron a shirt well!!), and she is as good at servicing the car.  The only thing she cant do is mow the lawn (steep block, heavy mower and she is very petite).  

    Trouble is that many of these limits imposed by society on women are imposed BY women.  Women are often far more sexist towards women, in my experience, than any man would dare to be.

  27. No, nothing's wrong with her.  We should all take a page from her book.

  28. Such women are wonderful--Wonder Women. Only scary thing is that they hardly need men.

  29. She sounds pretty impressive to me

  30. depends on the observer, this person should not forget, nor take for granted, that that everyone is an anomaly, unique.

    there are many who conform to the most popular of rituals and behaviors, the most common are they among us.

    in short, no. there is nothing wrong with her, and she should feel lucky to be so blessed with such intelligence
