Read them like a book...

Women are more cultured than men. Always will be.


Why?


Because we read more.


Of course, that's not the only reason why. Women also appreciate art more and watch more culturally inspiring visual works (musicals, plays, etc).


But I'm going to talk about the reading portion.


Just a few years ago, a study was done in Britain to decide which gender read more. Women won by far. Women, on average, read at least 9 books a year. Men are lucky if they read 5.


At a young age, little girls are more likely to sit still for long periods of time compared to boys. And, as we all know, reading is a very sit-down-for-long-periods-of-time hobby. Women also lean toward the emotional side, which is a reason for the love of reading. Women also have an easier time reading, taking in the information, and thinking about it later. I guess that also leads to me saying that women are smarter...but that's another blog for another day.


So, as I said at the beginning, women are more cultured due to their love of reading/books. That's another loss on the guys' end.


Women: 18
Men: 0
