@Incubus, men refrain from being logical with one another as well, its boring. But yes, In my experiences, women lack the reasoning trait.

Only men are philosophical, because only men are interested in finding the truth. Women are so fundamentally unable to see it when they're obviously wrong, it's sad that they honestly believe the things they do.
Proof: Have a conversation with a woman. Any woman. Choose ANY random woman off the street. Attempt to have a discussion with the most rational, objective, fair-minded woman you know. See how it goes.
EDIT: Maybe douchebag men do. I'm not claiming that EVERY man is logical. What I'm claiming is that EVERY female is illogical. I've looked and looked and looked. So have most men.

I am more philosophical then the average bear.
And less philosophical then those who are truly philosophical.
I don't think women have been published long enough for there to be an equal measure. I am being serious. Women were published under male names for centuries. Who knows. On a level of material evidence of publishings it would appear men. But as I said women weren't published or were under male alias for far longer in history that it all could be measured. A simple test alone wouldn't tell. Being scholarly alone doesn't mean deep. It helps tho.

This can be a legitimate question being asked in a theoretical way. And it's a excellent one. In ages past it was not distinguished for a younger lady to be betrothed to an grownup man in his 20s or 30s (typically even older). Menarche (the start of a lady's menstrual cycle) frequently happened around 15 or sixteen, as a substitute than 11-12 as it does now. Ordinarily the marriage was once to not be completed with the ceremony and consummated except the woman had long past through her first menstrual cycle, displaying she was bodily mature adequate. She had a husband headquartered in his work and locally to support and provide for any children that resulted. But now girls have menstrual cycles way before their bodies and minds are even just about mature. There are large cognitive differences between an eleven 12 months historic and a 20 year ancient. It is not a degree taking part in field by any means and the lady does not have the intellectual and emotional maturity to make this resolution. Most women this age are also relatively to very naiive about guys and sex and might without problems be taken competencies of by way of any individual who desires to have pleasure at their expense and not be there for them for the relaxation of their lives. Therefore our authorized method protects ladies beneath a special age from choices and pressures they don't seem to be but mature sufficient to handle. The grownup male is anticipated to understand and abide through this legislation.

I don't know what you mean by "philosophical".
A dictionary definition of the term is "calm and stoical, esp in the face of
difficulties or disappointments".
I think you really wanted ask whether anyone is *thoughtful*, after viewing
that video clip.
It's technically just fine, but it doesn't make me feel any more insignificant
than I did, before I watched it.
I've long been aware of my place in the universe.
