| Women are bad at parking, even science says so
Quote:
It's a thorny subject, so it is probably just as well it was a female scientist who confirmed that men are better at parking than women.
Men were typically five per cent more competent at parallel parking - where the car draws alongside anther vehicle before reversing into a bay - according to research.
...
During the tests, in which volunteers were asked to repeatedly park a saloon car, psychologists found women didn't benefit from the extra 20 seconds they took to complete the manoeuvres on average.
...
The study's co-author, Dr Claudia Wolf, a PhD student at the university's Department of Biopsychology, said she became interested in the subject because of the number of chauvinistic comments she encountered about women drivers.
'These prejudices exist and, as a scientist, I decided to find out if they are true or based on myth,' she said.
'I don't think feminism or the cause of women is in any way set back by these findings. It only proves what
previous studies about the spatial differences between men and women have shown.

Science is bunk.
Unless it's in the Bible I won't believe it.

5% is not very significant although the 20 seconds would be on a busy city street

5% doesn't seem like a big difference...
