WHITE OR GRAY ---ITS A NO BRAINER

In 1992, Mattel Toys released a talking Barbie doll that said the phrase, "Math class is tough!" The doll caused controversy, especially among parents and teachers who thought that it reinforced the stereotype that girls are not good at math.

Men have 6.5 times more gray matter in their brains than women do. Women have 10 times more white matter. Gray matter creates processing centers in the brain, and white matter creates the connections between them. In other words, men have lots of areas for processing concrete data -- like mathematical equations -- and women have lots of
connections that allow them to see and process patterns [Source: Live Science].

The big question now is which is better? Having more gray matter or white matter.

Me…being the FEMALE species, I feel having more white matter is definitely better!….Without the connections…what is the use of having ten or thousands of processing centers in the brain! Men always whine….”WOMEN! I can NEVER UNDERSTAND THEM!”…now we know why! (but I always suspect its not that they don’t understand us its more they DON’T want to understand us!)

Women have more capacity to be successful…..they are better at multitasking…its proven…they are:

· Housekeepers
· Accountants
· Childminders
· Cook
· Driver
· Mentor
· Breadwinner
· Wife
· Mother
· Sister and
· Friend

All rolled into one. Show me a man that can do that for 25 years and not burnout!

So ladies…if there is a MAN out there that tells you otherwise…U TELL THEM!
