A recent poll from the Science Museum in the U.K. reveals that the average British male tells three lies a day, while females tell two. This translates to about 1,092 lies per year for men and 728 for women. The discussion around the poll is filled with skepticism regarding its validity, with participants questioning how accurately individuals can assess their own lying habits. Many express disbelief at the frequency of lying suggested by the poll, suggesting that it seems exaggerated. Humor and sarcasm permeate the conversation, with jokes about the nature of lies told by men and women, and the idea that societal norms may influence how often people admit to lying. There are also comments on the psychological implications of lying, with some suggesting that honesty can lead to depression, while others argue that the poll itself may be flawed due to self-reporting biases. Overall, the thread highlights a mix of disbelief, humor, and commentary on gender differences in communication and honesty.
