It's true: Men can't read women's emotions
by confuzzled dude Sun Apr 14, 2013 8:44 pm
The research, published Wednesday (April 10) in the journal PLOS ONE, showed that men had twice as much trouble deciphering women's emotions from images of their eyes compared with those of men. Parts of the male brain tied to emotion also didn't activate as strongly when the men looked at women's eyes.
Men took longer and had more trouble correctly guessing emotion from women's eyes.
In addition, their brains showed different activation when looking at men versus women's eyes. Men's amygdala — a brain region tied to emotions, empathy, and fear — activated more strongly in response to men's eyes. In addition, other brain regions tied to emotion and behavior didn't activate as much when the men looked at women's eyes.
The findings suggest that men are worse at reading women's emotions.
-> Bigger question is would women understand this genuine inability of men and not blame them as being inconsiderate, and leave them alone

here is my question. In business the CEOs are expected to give clear directions, make decisions fast and provide clear cut instructions.
None of the above is a woman's quality - who like to give vague impressions, words, facial expressions, etc..
Then what are they whining about lack of representation at the highest level?
Inability to understand women is women's fault - they have not evolved fast enough....

one of the most overlooked facts is most information on women has come from men - novels, plays, movies, whatever, all written/narrated by men in all media that you can think of. So, unless one accesses genuine stuff written by honest women, this quest will continue...
