The inscrutable nature of the female brain

Mankind( One wonders if the word was carefully chosen to imply 'woman-cruel') has been in existence for a long time now. Men and women have evolved. Though not quite at the same rate. Women seem to have developed some psychic powers that the man is unable to fathom. The female brain has been under constant scrutiny for a long time now, but men are still no closer to understanding it.To illustrate the nature of a man's worries, I present two aspects to women that men struggle to grasp. There are infinite more.

1)What woment really want - The wise ones generally seem to agree that the answer lies somewhere between chocolate and conversation, but beyond that, no one knows.

2)Why is it that, even when they all the evidence in the world, women demand a confession? Some men claim that they derive some sadistic pleasure from this exercise, but that view is no longer generally accepted in the intellectual circles.

But what scares the male most is a 'normal' conversation between two women, who are in complete sync with each other. Here's one such example between A and B, with a male observer C in the vicinity .

A : Hi ! so did you ...
B : Of course ! But Tom was....
A : Right ! I should've guessed. Also..
B : Ya, I know.
A : Besides, poor thing, Tom has only three legs. cya!
B : Right! cya!

A and B leave the scene perfectly happy. But what about C, our male observer? Now he knows for sure that he'll never make it as a detective... He's grossly incompetent. An intellingent male might imagine that Tom is a creature, that in healthy condition, has four or more legs.An adventurous male might hazard a guess- that Tom is perhaps a starfish or an octopus.

Alas, he's wrong of course. The sympathies were in infact reserved for A's favourite chair, beloved Tom. What does the male brain do in this scenario ? It shuts down for starters. And if C is a sufficiently unimpressive representative of his clan, he will insert one of his fingers into a nostril, and after a brief mining session, replace its contents with a set of fingerprints, causing much damage to the male reputation.

The female brain, meanwhile remains as ever - inscrutable.

Hahahahahahahahahahahahaha! Lovely one Karthik! Well, being in the set where these half complete conversations make perfect sense, I can tell you that the conversations are left "incomplete" because there is a lot of 'pre-this conversation' build-up that's there. This conversation has many references to many more that have happened before and being females, we keep a track of what was said, when and by whom and why!

But oh well, don't worry! The story on this side is just about the same! The question is more like, "are men buffoons or something? Why can't they understand something THIS simple?"! And as some will resign to it, "Alas, Mars and Venus always have, still do and always will clash" :D :D I'm glad you haven't tried dabbling any further, it's a battle not worth fighting and possibly with no useful outcome! :D

Now Karthik, you sure seem to have got a lot of gyan about women in these days. You once told me, it is now time to look into these women matters, and it seems like you have done well!! The holy grail of understand women is 'don't even try!!'

thanks for the comments everyone!

Ya, i guess its continuation of previous thoughts. But in my case atleast, I generally like the previous thoughts to be 'revised' once before continuing them :)

gyan about women/ well-informed - I really don't know if I have any accurate knowledge :) Just a humourous take, that's all :) But the summary is of course, that you shouldn't try to understand!
