Gender-specific tricks..

8D! Post your own knowledge here, make sure don't diss the guys too much!

Girls, take a piece of SMALL graph paper and try to stare at a line from the top to the bottom without losing focus.

Guys, stand with your back and butt to a wall and feet flat, and try to bend over and touch your toes without bending your knees or moving your butt or feet and without losing your balance.

Now switch around.

Hey i can do both of those things!
Saying that Im a trampolinist and therefore unusually flexible :P
But yeah, women- try and park a car :o [/stereotype]

I can do both too. :]

>>; I can't park a car to save my life. I end up...god knows where, my car is always on a diagonal.

I can't do my gender reastriction, but I'm not too skilled in physical antics of the body anyway.

I find it irrational that women could find it difficult to follow a straight line in the company of other straight parallel lines.

I've never been able to touch my toes without bending my legs, useless ability anyway unless one is a gymnast or the like — and I'm not.

Oh so that's what it's about... lol, pitiful.

I am pleased to say that I can do both.

I can touch my toes, though it strains my muscles because I don't exercise as much as I should *kicks computer*. The other one I haven't tried, I'll have to find some graph paper.

I can't do either… does that mean I'm an alabaster retard or just lazy?
Anyway… girls can't pee in the bowl while standing a few centimetres away.

Most people can't put their palm on the shoulder of the same arm, at least not without help of the the other. Some girls can. I dunno about boys; I can't. :p

Any other ideas?

I smell misunderstanding. I'm simply saying that it seems strange to me that it would be a gender restriction. I may like to add that feminism is one of the more obsolete sentiments, since sexism is already such a social taboo.

I wonder if the recent move toward symmetry will eventually iron out most differences between the sexes. That would be an interesting thing to see.

None of these 'tricks' are specific to either of the sexes... >_>

These seem more like party tricks than anything else, but I'll play too. C:

Not so much as a gender defying skill, but I know a lot of people can't roll their tongues in a 'U' shape. Oh and whistling, not only by blowing out but by sucking in as well. /kinky

Oh kay... I'll still think what I first did anyway though.

Being a lazy, relaxed and calm type, I CAN'T do the "thing" that you want me to do. Besides, I rarely exercise my body, rather I exercise my brain by reading my books. >.<

I'm sure these are only statistical restrictions. I haven't seen an actual feature of the anatomy to restrict any of these.

I've heard that, due to prehistoric gender roles, females (being more inclined to protecting the home) can spot out things in a wide field of vision, while males who hunted for food only had to concentrate on prey and therefore are more narrow-sighted. Strange. If I had two bodies I could test this out.

雀, I didn't get what you meant by that post.

I can only do the one with the graph!
But anyway another bit of info i know is that women can see more shades of red than men
but men can see more shades of blue than women! (got that from a book!)
