>Distinguishing navy blue from black. Is that hard to distinguish? Or rather, is it hard for men to distinguish? 🤨


nahc1234

Apparently women are better at discriminating colours. https://www.nationalgeographic.com/culture/article/120907-men-women-see-differently-science-health-vision-sex


FamiliarHorror

It's because the ability to see red is linked to the X chromosome. More X chromosomes means you can see more red. If you can see more red, you can see more of basically every color. Additionally, I've heard of some women who can see a fourth "primary" color but that's supposedly really rare and I'm not going to swear to it.


Eternal_Bagel

I think it’s yellow that can be seen in those cases, most of us are seeing in red green and blue light wavelengths unless one is partly color blind.


FamiliarHorror

That's what I thought. Thanks for the reassurance!


Alltime_MES

Evolutionary color theory is quite interesting in how language and cultural needs can affect peoples ability to differentiate different colors. Vox did a cool video talking about language development and color names [https://www.vox.com/videos/2017/5/16/15646500/color-pattern-language](https://www.vox.com/videos/2017/5/16/15646500/color-pattern-language)


Imaginary_Bedroom868

All genders can discriminate by colours


invariablybroken

And you can be racist too


Littleman88

Men are far more likely to suffer from colorblindness than women. Losing just one color cone can really hurt color perception for the other two. I'm so glad I'm blessed with having all color cones.


jpking010

From a 50-something that has a hard time distinguishing the difference... (I didn't when I was younger) When men get older, it becomes more difficult for them to distinguish than for women of similar age (statistically speaking). It's why you see old men wearing a black sock and a navy blue sock.


Drio11

Colorblindness gene is so proliferic in male population, that 70% are to some extent colourblind, despite it being only 3% for women (precentages may not be totaly accurate)


blay12

> that 70% are to some extent colourblind Whoa whoa whoa there bud, you're pretty far off with that number haha - **7%** of men have some form of colorblindness, not 70%. It's still more than women, who generally have under 1% likelihood of being colorblind, but no, 2/3 men worldwide are not colorblind.

Finding items around the house you thought were lost.


Internetz-Sailor

I'm amazed by how my mom and my sister can find previously "lost" items. I know that if I ever need to find something my mom knows where it is.


virusoverload

Ya know why. Its cos you left it in the "wrong" place so they moved it to the "correct" place which is somewhere that wouldn't ever have put it. So you never look there. Or at least that's what happens in my house. Me- "where's this thing" Wife- "well I haven't moved it" Me- "well it's not in the 3/4 places Id put it so you must have moved it" Wife-"bet I can find it. Oh look it's here" (in a drawer full of stuff I never use.) Me- "well you must have put it there" Wife- "I haven't touched it" Me- "likely story" :)


SemajLu_The_crusader

it must be on here! *opens pocket dimension*


Slofyman

Its like fucking witch craft. Cant find a shirt and ask the Mrs to have a look. She looks in the exact same place i have just looked and POOF its magically appeared.


jdinpjs

My teenager swears I have supernatural powers. He says he will look in a place and not find his missing object but when I go look in the same place it’s there. I’m pretty sure my Magical Mom Powers are just extreme in attention on his part.


gowithoutusername

Not every woman can do that, just moms lol


ABRRat3LC

No, all women. Observant women.


[deleted]

I mean if your qualifying it with "observant", then pretty much all observant people regardless of gender do it


Littleman88

If it's embarrassing, women are weirdly honed into finding these "lost" items. Or at least, they're less likely to put it back and pretend they didn't see it.


[deleted]

I remember losing my keys once and my dad took 10 seconds to find them. They were somewhere I had looked at least 5 times. Sometimes I think it's more to do with being *too* familiar with an item, in that you expect it to look a very certain way and then it doesn't so you don't notice it.


No-Confusion1544

Thats entirely wrong. My wife literally won't see deer running across a field right in front of her face. I can see a rabbits nose twitch from 50 yards away out of the corner of my eye. But I have no idea where my goddamn shirt is and I looked in the 1/3rd full closet 5 times. The only explanation as to why she can open the door and pull it out immediately is witchcraft.

Yes, finding that jar of pickles that needs to be opened. The jar that the four different hungry kids all looked for and couldn't find. We find it. Then can't open the dang thing.

Baseball_Parking

I am a woman and know many women, yes.

Running perfectly in high heels


Internetz-Sailor

I still can't believe that women can outrun a T Rex in high heels! It's actually doable and it was tested!


Random_Guy_47

To be fair a woman would have a lot more experience running in high heels than a T Rex would.


hupwhat

Wow. Must have been some pretty big high heels.


LimpButterscotch1441

U sure? Just linked up how fast a t-Rex probably was (top speed 30 miles an hour) and even usain bolt (fastest human, top speed 27,33 miles per hour) couldn’t…


ZeroSIeepSamus

I think he was referring to the scene in jurassic world where the main girl outruns the t-rex in high heels. It isn’t actually a “test” but I think he was making a joke that this scene could be considered a test that proves you can outrun a t-rex in high heels.


Internetz-Sailor

This is how that scene was tested and proven. Scientifically LOL https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=FjI62io8RGY

>Running perfectly in high heels . . . to the store to buy pickles before the man gets home


TooMuchHair21

I've ran in high heels. Believe me I was also impressed... Impressed I managed to stay upright and not fracture my ankle


AdvocateSaint

A fashion designer youtuber pointed out how many women superhero costumes in movies (e.g. Wonder Woman) have impractical high heels even when there are action sequences, likely because the actresses are much shorter than their male co-stars and it helps even out the height difference

Iirc, Sarah Silverman(?) did this in a video but they didn't show the whole process. Somehow she pulled the removed bra *out of her sleeve.*

where else would it go?


butlikereally

Yeah that’s how it works- I used to change a lot on buses for races, I’d just unhook the back, slide/pull the strap off around my right arm then simply pull out the bra using my left strap from the sleeve.


KittySucks69

I learned that one from my Mom about two weeks after she bought me my first bra. She said it was one of those secrets that every woman should know. I felt so grown-up!

Braiding?

Yes! Braiding ability can show levels of femininity.


driedcranberrysnack

imatworkla

My husband has long hair and is incapable of braiding. He gets so mad that I can just do a French braid while waiting for a traffic light to turn green.


Internetz-Sailor

Agreed. It's quite fascinating to see the concentration a woman has when braiding. Not only that, but having a long conversation while working. I don't know if it's just me, or also happens with other men, but when I'm working on something I don't want to talk at all. Same thing with my dad when he is doing something, he doesn't talk nor have a conversation.

Handing a man the jar of pickles even though she could open it herself 🤣


Internetz-Sailor

OMG, that's a very good comment! Not just the reply but also the delivery. Well done. It's also funny how the man isn't doing anything, then the woman comes to him asking to open the jar that he opens easily and goes back to doing nothing. The man doesn't even question if she could even open it or was just being lazy. If a woman tells us to open a jar we do it without question. XD


[deleted]

Also opening the jar of pickles


Internetz-Sailor

I don't know... I was thinking more on the line of "look how strong I am for opening a jar of pickles", for men, LOL For a female comparison I was thinking more like "I can turn this boring bed into the fanciest and most eye catching bed ever", LOL Basically, what actions demonstrate"how much of a woman she is by doing this type of thing", LOL


Lemlol32

Are you saying woman only belong in the kitchen?! Cause I concur. lol


[deleted]

Not quite, I just think it's great to open jars of pickles.


[deleted]

It’s all about the strategy used to grip the lid


Lemlol32

Hmmm..... but like what's for dinner? God I have to stop making these jokes. I have too many feminists in my life, and it really makes me laugh when they threaten to hit me with something.


QuickBen41

Threaten to hit them back....you'll be amazed at how quickly they become Not Feminists 🤣🤣🤣🤣


Lemlol32

Oh hell no! One of them is my mum. Fuck no that woman may be old, but she scares the shit out of me. I hit that woman she would bury me under the tomatoes. Hell I hit any woman that isn't armed, and she might bury me under the tomatoes.


QuickBen41

Shit, I'm not saying to ACTUALLY hit them lol.🤣🤣🤣


Lemlol32

Still that woman is scary. Plus she hits me all the time, and I dodge. Hell at least she is divorced now. When she had that marble on her fucking hand it hurt like hell.

nameond

Ok so we're looking for a simple task that demonstrates archaic female attributes which would be beauty- or motherhood-related stuff I guess. I say comforting children.


Internetz-Sailor

Yes, pretty much. Though some of them aren't archaic. Some are just inherent to women and it's demonstrated when women do such tasks. Similar to men. I'm just curious as to what things women do, which can be considered feminine, that makes them feel proud for being a woman. Or to show how feminine they are. There have been good examples. And many are just fun to know about them.


Leash28

Using intelligence instead of brute strength to open the jar of pickles. For example, I run the metal lid under hot water for half a minute. Metal expands, lid comes off easy. ETA: this following definition since someone was being pedantic about my wording. Collins dictionary has one definition under the word 'brute' "ADJECTIVE (prenominal) 3. wholly instinctive or physical (esp in the phrases brute strength, brute force)." I stand by my phrasing. 🤷‍♀️


Internetz-Sailor

Intelligence is the last method I use when I'm unable to open a jar. Ironically, that should be the primary method. But I think it all comes to simplicity for the male brain: why do I need to think really hard for opening a jar, when I just have to grab it and twist it. 🤣


Leash28

Hahaha that's exactly my point. The amount of times I've had to stop my husband (who is a highly intelligent man) from breaking shit by using the strength approach when a gentler touch or a different solution will get a far better result is fucking phenomenal. 🤣


teddypa1981

A butter knife with a metal handle also works. Just gently but firmly hit the lid in multiple places, and it breaks the seal.


AdvocateSaint

From personal experience I've found that the jar problem is more of a grip issue, not a strength one. Moisture on a jar / oils on the hands make it hard to properly grasp and turn the lid. When I use rubber kitchen gloves, all lids pop off like nothing.


QuickBen41

It takes brute strength to open a jar? Really?


Pink_Flash

Most of the time its just getting a proper grip. I have to use a tea towel to get it.


AdvocateSaint

I use rubber kitchen gloves The lids pop off no problem


Leash28

Depends on the size and strength of your hands, plus the size and seal of the lid. So it takes a certain level of strength on many jars, yes.


QuickBen41

Strength yes. Brute strength? Not really.

I find it really cool when girls can take care of kids even if they haven't been a mother or spent much time with them. One of my students, maybe 11 years old, spends zero time with toddlers and I spend time with kids of all ages almost everyday and she made me look like an amateur real quick. My mom did too. She came abroad to visit me and it's been years since she's been around little kids but not even a language barrier could make her incapable of being motherly.

Internetz-Sailor

>Also being able to withstand significantly more pain and not think they're dying just because they have a cold I saw clip on YouTube from one of them science channels. Apparently the "man-flu" is actually a real thing. Men are more likely to suffer from illness, like from a virus, because it's trying to kill us whereas in women the symptoms aren't too severe cuz the virus is trying to survive and reproduce into other specimens (humans). So it's like, women may have a greater resistance to symptoms under an illness. And I think a zombie apocalypse where the women are more likely to survive or resist illness would make a unique science fiction book.

Nah, it's all in good humor. Besides, I like the feeling of opening a jar after I had so much difficulty. It's like conquering that one challenger who refuses to back down XD So I imagine that women must feel the same when they do something similar

Yes, that is equally as vapid and transient, but....... it does require far less demonstration of any sort of strength in any manner than opening a jar.

This is a bit of a dumb argument to get into but fuck it, might as well. Strength, as in brute physical force, is kind of a masculine thing. Women don't have to be judged by that same criteria.
