Glossary

biased 有偏见的   pros and cons 利弊   instinctively 本能地 hunter-gatherer 采猎者（特指史前人类） peripheral vision 周边视觉（余光） keep their eyes peeled 睁大眼睛   intimacy 亲昵 亲密行为   multi-tasking 同时做多件事情 withdraw from doing sth 停止做……  be attuned to 适应

01  Women go with their heart while men trust in logic.

Women find it far easier to trust their instincts and trust their heart.

当面对问题时，男人更倾向于冷静而有逻辑地分析利弊，可能需要更长的时间来做出决定，而女人只是本能地知道他们应该做什么。

02  Women are better at multi-tasking.

Men are better at focusing on just one thing at a time for a good reason though.

在狩猎采集者的时代，如果一个男人出去打猎，他分心了，回来的时候却带着一束花，那么他的女人一定不会对他太满意!

03  Women can find things quicker than men.

You know how frustrating it is, when a man can't see something that's right in front of his nose?

当他在冰箱里找不到东西，但你能马上发现时，那是因为女性的周边视觉比男性好。

04  Women like shopping, men don't.

But let's be honest, where as a girl sees a shopping trip as a fun day out, most men see it as a chore that they will do anything to avoid.

当一个女孩把购物看做是外出的乐趣时，大多数男人会把它看作是一件他们会做任何事情来避免的琐事。

05  Men can't talk during intimacy, women can!

If you want to get some sense out of your man, then the best time is straight after the intimacy.

试着在亲密的时候说话也没有意义，因为男性无法同时处理多项任务，这是一个科学事实。

06  Men see silence as a bonus, women use it as a weapon.

男人不会得到沉默的对待,他们只是觉得这样很好，很平静，但是女人认为说话更重要，所以当她们不再和男人说话时，她们是在告诉男人他有问题要处理!

07  A woman's intuition does exist and men don’t have it.

The woman's role as child bearer and nurturer has equipped her with an intuition that men don't possess. Women are far more attuned to the more subtle signs that people give off, this is so that she can tell, if her baby is hungry or in pain.

这也是一个事实，男人比女人睡得更沉，这样她就能在夜里听到婴儿的哭声。所以当他说他没有听到婴儿在哭时，他可能是在说真话。

08  Men are better at fixing things than women.

Men do have a natural, hard wired, aptitude to fix things, whereas a woman is far more attuned to the emotional requirements of the family.

这种差异还可以追溯到男女过去在一段关系中所扮演的角色，当时需要男性的力量来建造庇护所和工具帮助家庭生存，而女性则负责照看孩子。

09  Women talk more than men.

我们不知道这背后的原因，但这是事实。像“我有一次六个月没和妻子说话，我不想打断她”这样的笑话是基于一些事实和一项调查;研究发现，男性的平均通话时长约为3分钟，而女性的通话时长超过15分钟。

10  Men can switch off, women can't.

A woman's mind is always full and she is always thinking and planning.

这可能来自女性同时处理多项任务的能力。似乎只有男人才会真正停止思考，什么都不想。
