dont be so sexist about it. i dont think i know better than any female unless i do, but i ack the same with guys. and if the ones you do cause in this world ther4e are two main types of women the normal women who are kind and polite and dont makle it known that they know stuff. then they have the man hatin, mis i know every thing types who of courseget in every ones face and men of course will compete back cause its in our d.n.a. but thats in every one male or female the only diference is how you present yourself.

We don't?:)

Well, there are women who think they know better than men as well. Not all men and not all women fit the know-it-all stereotype, though.

Men generally have bigger egos. this all stems from the hormonal differences: we have testosterone women have estrogen. Give a women to much testosterone and they will get a big ego and aggressive as well.

Well now, it's farely obveus that wee no much better then womin. Men have bigger brain substrates witch leads to smartness. Rite, honey??

These men vs. women questions seem to me to be less relevant today than they might have been 25 or 50 years ago. I have met many women who are quite clear in their belief that not only do they know better than women but they are better able to run this country than men. Ohmigosh. Whatever will this world come to? In my experience, when it comes to dealing with an individual's area of "expertise" (i.e., any area in which any individual believes he/she has some expertise), there is absolutely no difference between the sexes as to believing this person knows more than that person, of either gender. The question could substitute the genders and be just as relevant...or irrelevant.

I beg you consider. Men are goal oriented by nature, more so than women. They approach a problem and seek to get that problem done, generally at least. Women work differently when approaching problems, a woman may make a suggestion that is opposite to a mans nature and it is very hard to accept. The issue of your disagreement depending on the size of the problem may seem trivial since the problem still lies ahead begging a solution. The average man on a mission would think little of it unless it was a peice of the problem to be solved. Generally women tend to be more considerate of others emotions (not my sexist opinions, my textbooks/books sexist observations by the way) disregarding a person is very inconsiderate, or even as you may percieve it undermining you or treating you as if he knows better. I think if you were to ask the offender if that was his intention he would most likely tell you it never crossed his mind. AKA, may not of been telling you he knows better the issue may have been a higher priority for him or he may have been taking it at a different pace. You may just have a false negative cognative assioation with his behavior. I am not trying to say I as a man know better I am saying that I dont know anything about who you are dealing with, but you know him and he has the answer to your question.
