Many women are so obsessed with their looks they forget what really matters. Very few women change the world because they are simply too obsessed with being beautiful or being socially accepted.
Most women act as if looks is the only thing that determines where they stand in the food chain. It really isn't and if you let men dictate that and support it by playing into it.
Riiiight. And women not changing the world has nothing to do with the fact that only fairly recently women were appointed to high-level gov't posts like Sec'y of State, etc., got hatchet jobs done on them when running for President, were barred from certain professions and university programs historically, or were pushed aside or left out of the history books when they actually did accomplish something extraordinary.
Where is this nest of beautiful women obsessed with their looks, that you seem to have fallen into, anyway? That's a pretty rare phenomenon, from a big-picture perspective.
Now I know people will say "Not all men are like that" but based on personal experience and what I've seen it's pretty much always men that get crazy-obsessed with things to the point they ignore their marriage, family, kids, hygiene etc.
ALL men. I have also had ex bfs that would come home and spend HOURS completely enthralled with games and that's all they'd do. Of course it's not just video games it can be sports or other activities. I just don't understand it, for the good majority, women seem to have a much easier time not getting crazy obsessed with things they ignore others or especially their children.
You obviously pick the stupidest, dumbest, lowest hanging peice of fruit from the tree, to date someone that spends hours playing games ..
I've never known a man to become addicted to 'Candy Crush' or 'Farmville', nor do I know any men who spend 4-8 hours a day messaging and making posts on Facebook or Instagram or whatever else is out there.
How many women do those types of things not only when they're at home, but when they're supposed to be productive at their office jobs? Keep trying to stereotype though.
To be fair, I know of people who are unhappily married to spouses of both sexes who are overly obssessed with video games or social media.
I have a male friend whose wife is practically addicted to Farm Heroes Saga. She plays it most of the day and actually got fired from her job for playing it instead of doing her work as an administrative assistant.
I also have a female friend who has a husband that can't stay off Xbox for a second the minute he gets home from work. He plays it until the time he literally falls asleep with the controls still in his hands.
Obsessions do not have a particular sex/gender. While men are generally more inclined to be interested in a particular genre of gaming, there are enthusiastic female gamers as well. It isn't fair to say that men are the only ones who are guilty of gaming to the extent of ignoring all else in their lives.
Ever thought of the reason the majority of great and famous explorers, inventors, artists, composers, writers etc are men? Well, here is your reason. It takes a concentrated, obsessive mind to create something worthwhile. Some men turn their brain power towards inventions and achievements - and some towards video games, that is all.
Men needed to develop this need to obsess when the goal was hunting food and defending their clan. Early women survived because of this. Now women no longer need to be fed and defended by men, and feel free to belittle the men who have not evolved beyond the obsessional stage.
In general, men are the more singular focused of the genders. Women are more oriented toward multitasking because it's necessary to raise kids. Men tend to be more singular focused and can more easily block everything else out that doesn't fit that focus. They are also more prone to compartmentalizing things. IE. They can repress their emotions/their sexual orientation (if they're gay) and just focus on whatever thing they deem important.
I really don't think men are more materialistic than women, but they are more single minded. This single mindedness can make men great achievers (i.e. CEOs of big corporations), but also extreme losers (i.e. such as being more prone to drug and alcohol addiction than women).
