A study says straight women suck at reading maps -- at least that's what the headlines declare.
  • My wife would get lost in a phone booth

    Has lived more than 11 years in the same house and still cannot find her way more than 5 miles in any direction to any destination whatsoever. She is unable to navigate a 5 turn, 2 mile trip in town w/o practicing it about 10x first and god forbid there ever be a detour even if it's within a block of her destination. It's not about maps because maps are simply not used at all. Ever. And it's not some spatial brain problem. It's simply about power and control. I am lost therefore I will reserve the right to nag you to tell me where to drive every second and if you ever fail to pay 100% attention to my 'problem' I will mess up your whole day.
