Girls are different. My sister is super-smart and her score was among one of the best in the country when she graduated. BUT I can never forget the moment when I was explaining to her what off-side in football (soccer) is. And my old lady is very smart too; did great in school – got scholarships and all that. But she read a prologue of a book I was reading and asked me what it meant. It goes (translated) like this: "In order to break these preformed coalitions of desire, pleasure and deprivation, we must create detours through strange structures and with great ambiguosity." She does not get it. And she was irritated by the fact that she didn't get it. I had to explain it to her. When the gender wars start, we have as much to fear of their taking over the world as spiders amounting to the same. In fact, I'd be more afraid of the spiders.
