A discussion emerged around a comment made by a Canadian woman, stating, "Criminals never commit anymore crimes than they want to." This remark sparked a mix of amusement and disbelief among participants, leading to a broader conversation about intelligence and gender stereotypes. The dialogue included anecdotes about quizzes designed to test knowledge of geography and history, highlighting perceived gaps in knowledge among both men and women. Participants debated the intelligence of women compared to men, with some suggesting that women might appear smarter due to their conversational choices. The conversation also touched on the nature of crime and the assumptions about criminals' behavior, with some questioning the woman's understanding of crime dynamics. Overall, the thread reflected a blend of humor, stereotypes, and discussions on intelligence across genders.

I'd point out that you should never end a sentence with a preposition, then tell him I would never date someone who would make an error such as that during a quiz to find out if I was smart enough for him.
At least I would if I were a girl and he actually tried asking me that question and I could think that quickly.

Yep... I've met so many dumb males that it's depressing. Sometimes I perceive women to be a bit smarter than men only to realize that it's because they rarely are interested in talking about anything that would highlight their stupidity. Maybe that shows some glimmer of intelligence in and of itself though.
That does seem consistent with what I've seen too. The dumb women seem content to talk about stuff like getting their nails done and the latest fashions, and other stuff that requires no thinking whatsoever, but doesn't make it glaringly obvious until you spend some time with them that they don't know much about anything else. With dumb men, they're willing to come right out and show you how ignorant they are by trying to "edumacate" you about what they think of things they know nothing about. They should stick to talking about sports.

Careful what you say. I believe she could kill you with her pinky.

Oh, yeah, the other part of that - is that the PF Sisters are very discriminating. I suspect most 'guys' aren't up to their level. :biggrin:

One must be persistent and worthy, I suppose. :biggrin:

The Sisters cannot be outsmarted!

Basic grammar mistakes aren't going to endear you to the "smart" girls either.

That is one of their tests - to determine agility and mental acuity. Survival of the fittest test, I think they call it.

Plus they are just toying with you.

If they are shooting at you, then it seems that they must be interested. :biggrin:

Man did i hear the stupidest thing from this Canadian chick today.

"Criminals never commit anymore crimes then they want to".

:smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile: :smile:

Sorry, just had to share.

Disclaimer: Since so many of you are anal when someone says something bad about a non-american even with no intent on making a generalization, i'll just say it now: "This person does not represent all Canadians".

That almost makes sense...:rolleyes: in a Yogi Berra-ish way :smile:
