I just finished reading a very interesting book called 'Why men don’t listen and women can’t read maps'

One of the conclusions they came up with (The husband & wife writers of the book) was that yes it is true that the majority of women cannot read maps properly, just the same as the majority of men don't listen to other people properly (Something to do with the left-side and right-side of the brain)

Whether the findings in the book are true or not is up to the readers to decide....................

Men are better at finding direction, but whether or not you can read a map doesn't depend on your sex. My mom is the one that always reads the map on long journeys, but if we do manage to get lost, my dad can find the right way pronto

I have a experience. Last time when I was study at US, I was travel in group. A girl sit next to me and become my navigator. (Some Chinese dude told me that he never read a map before, she is my only choice) I had highlight the road to her, I ask her to remind when to turn. When it is close I ask her before she did remind me. Then She gave he a lot of choice instate of reminding me what to do next. It was a funny experience.

This does not mean all women are like her. After some time (I graduated) she is a good navigator. That driver is much more handsome then me. :P

principally I do a agree but I NEVER tell that a woman... plus there are noteworthy exceptions, and men who cannot figure out a map either. In the US that would be about 89% of the male population, by the way!

i think they face some difficulties in finding ways, not read map or direction.

i don't know why. i can read maps, but i do have some difficulties in finding the place. i might get lost first, but will finally arrive anyway.

I agree most women cant, women in general are poor on directions but also the are few good ones.

Not in my case. I was a Scouts Girl and map reading was my specialty and I'm good at roads. My boyfriend is one of the worse case scenario where making wrong turns and getting lost is his middle name.
