Last night, I caught a rerun of this BBC program that I'd missed the first time around:
http://www.bbc.co.uk/sn/tvradio/programmes/sexsecrets/
Has anyone else seen it--and what do you think? Are women's brains really wired very differently from men's? Does playing the tuba require a long ring finger?

No more (or less), I suspect, than driving a cab requires a long middle finger (though I'm sure it helps!) ...Chuck(G) wrote:Does playing the tuba require a long ring finger?

As far as I knew, it just required a long beer stein! Maybe the rings are from those...Chuck(G) wrote:Does playing the tuba require a long ring finger?

Instead of talking to your plants, if you yelled at them would they still grow, but only to be troubled and insecure?

Experience tells me that men's brains are, indeed, different from women's brains. Even for the arty, sensitive man. But this is in reference to a straight (heterosexual) man. Perhaps gay (homosexual) men are different and think more like women. Women seem to be more intuitive, accept pain, and retain more knowledge. I accept these differences.

So where are those sex secrets that were promised at the beginning of the thread? And what is that about women having wires in the brain. Maybe that's why I get a charge out of them.

There was a majority of women in my family but that fact did not enable me to understand them at all.
Now there is a trend to teach women martial arts, weapons training-women in combat. Aren't they dangerous enough already?
