Originally posted by Arvestaked I am tired of that whole women-mature-faster nonsense. There are probably more tests out there to show that men are smarter than women but nobody would say it. And I will tell you why. It is something Bill Maher has discussed and it is that there is a social movement in the United States that praises women. If anyone in the public eye says that women are smarter are better at this, the audience claps. If it was the alternative expect an awkward silence. It is not a widely accepted fact; it is a widely marketed myth. I have never met a female within four years of my age who was as mature as me. I am not saying men are more mature. I am saying that they are different and for the most part both are equally naive. Maturity comes from experience and not credulity. It is just a bunch of children on a playground, acting like adults.
