    At the risk of seeming unpopular, I'm going with women. It seems as though the women in my life (friends and family) ask more questions about everything than the men in my life ever have.

    The results suggest that women regard both childbearing and marriage as being
    less central and more optional in women’s lives....
    Women may be asking more questions about whether everyone needs to follow
    the same path.

    The Sanskrit word Punsa (male) is cognate with the
    Sanskrit word Manas (mind). The interpretation is
    that men excel in mind and women excel in body.

    Medicine knows that women live some 10 years longer
    than men.

    All, except one, scientific inventions are by men.
    That exception was later suspected to have been faked
    by her husband who published more papers than his wife.

    All engineering inventions are by men. All medieval
    and ancient philosophical works are by men. There
    were no lady philosophers in ancient Greece or Rome.

    Man is the source of knowledge. If he does not know,
    he knows where to and how to get. He never asks a
    woman. If some knowledge doesn't exist, man becomes
    creator of that knowledge.

    Even in the developed countries, men excel in
    jobs connected with mathematics, science and
    hard core engineering.

    "Even best women feel the chill in math, science:

    A study by a former Stanford University researcher has found that even the most talented women mathematicians and scientists are made to feel uncomfortable when they are outnumbered by their male peers."

    Some studies show that women perform better on tests of memory and verbal proficiency for example, while men perform better on tests of mathematical and spatial ability.

    There are no female geniuses or wise women:

    " Male IQ is more variable than female IQ. In other words, females tend to cluster around average scores, while males are somewhat more spread out, with more of them scoring at the very high end and the very low end of the IQ scales. This has been cited as a reason why more geniuses like Einstein or Mozart (and also school dropouts) are males."

    http://www.sq.4mg.com/male-femaleIQ.htm

    In France, 24% of physicists and 20% of mathematicians are women. And very few women in this select band hold positions of responsibility. There are more women physicists in Italy, but hardly any in top jobs. In Germany the situation is even worse. And in the United States, where doctors and lawyers have more power than scientists, there are only 5% of women scientists.

    Thales' view was that men are better than women and Greeks are better than barbarians.

    You can check any books catalogue or university
    library. There are no books on engineering subjects
    written by women anywhere in the world.

    Most of men do not keep questioning people to get answer.
    They have the mind to search for it on their own.
    So many inventions are proofs for it.

    It is women who ask a lot of questions.

    "The model, called "tend-and-befriend" by its developers, won't replace fight-or-flight. Rather, it adds another dimension to the stress-response arsenal, says University of California, Los Angeles, psychologist Shelley Taylor, PhD, who, along with five colleagues, developed the model.

    In particular, they propose that females respond to stressful situations by protecting themselves and their young through nurturing behaviors--the "tend" part of the model--and forming alliances with a larger social group, particularly among women--the "befriend" part of the model. Males, in contrast, show less of a tendency toward tending and befriending, sticking more to the fight-or-flight response, they suggest."

    http://www.apa.org/monitor/julaug00/stress.html

    The "tend-and-befriend" psychology requires women to ask a lot of questions.
    Men follow the the fight-or-flight response and avoid asking many questions.

    "Why Do Women Ask So Many Questions?

    My only comfort is - I am not alone in this behavior. As a matter of fact, I am finding that women everywhere share this same trait. We ask a ton of questions. And we won't move forward until we get every last one of them answered."

    Why do men continually offer solutions and give advice?

    Being more rational than women, men are naturally oriented to problem solving. This is what reason dictates. If a problem is posed, the natural response of the reasoning mind is to find and propose a solution. The female mind, being more emotional, has less interest and inclination to resolve problems; it is far more inclined to bathe in the waters of the emotion involved. Also, men offer advice to women because that's what women want and respond to. This dynamic indicates to the woman that the woman is valued (or at least, she thinks it does) and also allows the woman to take action without the burden of personal responsibility - they can simply act on the basis of advice given. In this sense, men, thought the avenue of advice giving, present women with one of the greatest gifts that a woman could want - a means by which to absolve themselves from responsibility for their actions.

    The other, and perhaps less complicated reason for this behaviour in men is that men seek to dominate the world through mental action; women submit to the world and flow within its turbulence because they have no corresponding mental activity. Without the advice and problem solving of the males around them, most women would collapse into a pathetic heap. So, instead of asking why men continually offer solutions and give advice, women should ask themselves why they continually need it.
