Pease, Allan and Barbara - Why men don't listen and women can't ...

white portions the word FLY will appear. A woman is
more likely to see FLY than a man as his brain gets
stuck on the geometric shapes.
Why Men Should Drive at Night
While a woman can see better in the dark than a man,
especially at the red end of the spectrum, a man's eyes
allow for better long-distance vision over a narrower
field, which gives him much better - and therefore safer -
long-distance night vision than a woman. Combined
with his right brain spatial ability, a man can separate
and identify the movement of other vehicles on the road
ahead and behind. Most women can testify to what is a
kind of night blindness: the inability to distinguish which
side of the road approaching traffic is on. This is a task
that a man's hunting vision is equipped to handle. This
means that if you are going on a long driving trip, it
makes sense for a woman to drive during the day and for
a man to drive at night. Women can see more detail in
the dark than men but only over a shorter, wider field.
On long trips, men should drive at
night and women drive in the day.
Men suffer greater eyestrain than women because their
eyes are configured for long distances and must be constantly
readjusted to look at a computer screen or read
a newspaper. A woman's eyes are better suited for closerange
activities, giving her a longer working time on
fine detail. In addition, her brain is wired for coordinated
fine-motor capability in a small area, which
means the average woman is excellent at threading a
needle and reading detail on a computer screen.
