How does one learn to understand women?

Answer 1

Well you are on the right track... just by attempting to learn. LOL

Answer 2

You can never understand "women". Your best hope is to understand one of them at a time. And you do this by talking with them, and by asking questions you don't let them dodge.

For example: everyone tells you that flowers are romantic. I don't enjoy them like other women do. That's something you'll just need to find out by talking to me (or by buying me flowers and thus prompting me to tell you this - after a sufficiently polite period of time, of course).

If I had to give you one generic rule for all women, it'd be: learn to listen between the lines when you talk, and try to hear everything from the perspective of someone who thinks she's a bad person. So many guys complain that their girlfriend overreacted to something they said, when in fact it would be VERY easy to take the remark a different way from how they intended. One example in the SCA: If you're teaching a guy how to fight, and he's struggling a little, so you say "Don't worry; this move is simple", the guy will hear "You'll get it eventually". If you're teaching a girl, and she's struggling, and you say "Don't worry; this move is simple", the girl will hear "You're stupid because you haven't already gotten it".

The Secrets of Women's Language

... a must-read for any man.

Keywords and their meanings:

"Fine": This is the word we use at the end of any argument that we
feel we are right about but need to shut you up. NEVER use "Fine" to
describe how a woman looks. This will cause you to have one of those
arguments.

"Five minutes": This is half an hour. It is equivalent to the five
minutes that your football game is going to last before you take out
the trash, so it's an even trade.

"Nothing": This means something, and you should be on your toes.
"Nothing" is usually used to describe the feeling a woman has of
wanting to turn you inside out, upside down, and backwards. "Nothing"
usually signifies an argument that will last "Five Minutes" and end
with the word "Fine."

"Go Ahead" (with raised eyebrows): This is a dare.

One that will result in a woman getting upset over "Nothing" and will
end with the word "Fine."


"Go Ahead" (normal eyebrows): This means "I give up"

or "Do what you want, because I don't care." You will get a raised
eyebrow "Go ahead" in just a few minutes, followed by "Nothing" and
"Fine" and she will talk to you in about "Five Minutes" when she
cools off.

: This is not actually a word, but is still often a verbal
statement very misunderstood by men. A "Loud Sigh" means she thinks you
are an idiot at that moment and wonders why she is wasting her time
standing here and arguing with you over "Nothing."

: Again, not a word, but a verbal statement. "Soft Sighs"
are one of the few things that some men actually understand. She is
content. Your best bet is to not move or breathe, and she will stay
content.

"Oh": This word followed by any statement is trouble.

Example: "Oh, let me get that." Or, "Oh, I talked to him about what
you were doing last night." If she says "Oh" before a statement, RUN,
do not walk, to the nearest exit. She will tell you that she is "Fine"
when she is done tossing your clothes out the window, but do not
expect her to talk to you for at least 2 days.

"Oh," as the lead to a sentence, usually signifies that you are caught
in a lie. Do not try to lie more to get out of it, or you will get
raised eyebrows "Go ahead" followed by acts so unspeakable that we
can't bring ourselves to write about them.

"That's Okay": This is one of the most dangerous statements that a
woman can say to a man. "That's Okay" means that she wants to think
long and hard before paying you retributions for whatever it is that
you have done.

"That's Okay" is often used with the word "Fine" and used in
conjunction with a raised eyebrow "Go ahead." At some point in the
near future when she has plotted and planned, you are going to be in
some mighty big trouble.

"Please Do": This is not a statement; it is an offer.

A woman is giving you the chance to come up with whatever excuse or
reason you have for doing whatever it is that you have done. You have
a fair chance to tell the truth, so be careful, and you shouldn't get
a "That's Okay".

"Thanks": A woman is thanking you. Do not faint; just say you're
welcome.

"Thanks a lot": This is much different from "Thanks". A woman will
say, "Thanks a lot" when she is really ticked off at you. It signifies
that you have hurt her in some callous way, and will be followed by
the "Loud Sigh." Be careful not to ask what is wrong after the "Loud
Sigh", as she will only tell you "Nothing."

I hope this clears up any misunderstandings ...

HELLLLLOOOOOOOO!!!

If anyone can answer that question they will have unfolded the mystery of the universe.

Pretend that men and women are computers...

Women have a key board and are therefore complicated.

Men only have an on and off switch... and therefore unable to operate a complicated keyboard.

My only advice..expect the unexpected and be flexible. But if you really want to get inside a womans head..... communicate!

One doesn't, one has to accept that man will not understand women. Just accept then for what and who they are, and you just might be lucky enough, to find some you can get along with.
If its any consolation, they don't understand men either.
