Oh the worderful world of science. Next they are going to do a study to find out if heterosexual men really do like copious bazoomage.

I love Australia. The majority of the blokes in the manliness survey? Not so much.

More than 60 per cent said that when a woman pointed out a fault in their driving they `"sail on at 160km/h in a 50 zone - the car has airbags after all".
160 km/h = 99 mph
50 km/h = 30 mph
Sounds about right, except skipping the "hold my beer and watch this" part.

As Dave said: "Duh" only with more emphasis. They can do that same survay anywhere in the world and get the same result.

There was no option for answering "Yes, dear, thank you for pointing out the error of my ways"???

If I know the Aussies, they prefer to keep the beer can under their own control.

Almost half said they liked to point out serious flaws in their partners driving skills...

"More than 30 per cent said they would want to push them out the door."
Is it bad that I get enjoyment from my wife's fear. My favorite thing to do is gasp when I'm next to a semi, she won't hit me because I'm driving, it's the perfect crime.

Women have not evolved enough to properly drive complicated machinery such as cars lawnmowers and golf carts.
It's a wonder they can navigate a baby carriage (Let alone, a stick shift.. And, by the way, hows come you gals always have to stop and ask for directions? I've never once seen a woman check tire pressure using a discrete kick in the sidewall!
They can't tell the difference between STP from WD40, or between MPH and DWI. BUT, give them a few bucks plus A shopping cart and they'll pig out on Dove bars and Haagen Dazs a mile a minute.
