What gender has better direction skills?

Question

hey, my friend and i are doing our grade 7 science fair project. its about: what gender has better direction skills. we think its going to be girls of course. but we want to find out more info on it. anything will help us!! thankyou for your time:)

Answer 1

well dont u think its obvious that girls have better direction then boys. if you think otherwise then say it to my face!!!

Answer 2

Well, I guess it depends on your definition of "directional skills." Do you mean "north,south,east, west," " left or right",  "How do you get to Dairy Queen," or " How do we get back from where we are now?" Each requires a different set of directional skills, the last one being the ability to reverse previously-followed directions.   I know women who could have given Sacajawea a run for her money in being a frontier scout. I know men who have been lost for hours because they wouldn't ask for directions; and vice versa. I think it has to do more with neural programing than with gender.  We caved in and got a GPS, and sometimes that's wrong, and that's gender -neutral!! ( I think!)

Answer 3

What kind of direction ability are you referring to?  The ability to provide directions that will result in a finished project, the ability for guiding their children down the right path, the ability to choose the direction with which they guide their career.

The ability to know where they are geographically?

There are many ways to define direction.

Answer 4

in my case, definitely my husband. i am stupid when it comes to that way of thinking.

look up any info on mens brains and women's brains. i think you will find that science has proven men are better at that sort of thinking whereas women are better at linguistics and the like. (for the most part)
