When I was a child one of my Dads nicknames for me was "The navigator", when we went on trips, my Father let me read the map AND find the camp area we were going to so I had to coordinate the two different sources.
We have maps (we doan need no steenkin' map). It just doesn't always say turn left here and go halfway down the block - it's on your right, idiot. That's why we get married, so we can be told that every thing we do is wrong - right, Honey?
Why won't men ever ask for directions? I have spent time driving around with my husband driving up and down every street, getting frustrated and STILL he won't stop for directions! I even say I will go ask. NOPE! Is there some sort of secret man rule that says you have to find your destination by yourself or you are not a man??
Please explain yourself!!
Don’t think of it as being lost!
It’s not the “trip” that is important it’s the destination and we men like to know what areas we don’t have to revisit the next time we come this way again.

You got it JavaPhil! The things we men go through to make our wives and girlfriends feel needed. Right Skoe?
De Nile is SO in Egypt. And de Amazon is in Brazil. I am never lost, I'm just finding a new route there. And it's not the destination, it's the journey.
As former hunter-gatherers, men are used to operating alone. We are and have to be self-reliant. Society programs us to rise to challenges and to stand on our own 2 feet.
Course if ya believe that, I got some land in Florida ...
