Now, when I see a post start out like this - ...Sexual orientation and gender affects navigation skills, with straight men best at map reading and heterosexual woman worst, according to a new story". - I'm feelin' a little vindicated.
Oh hell - head on over to Blonde Sagacity and read the whole thing.
Mean while, I'm taking this as complete justification for my new GPS system and the fact that I can't find my own way out of a paperbag.......

And no. I wouldn't exactly callin' "grasping at straws". Why do you ask? ;-)
Posted by: Tammi at May 26, 2007 08:50 AMI call total bullshit on this too, I am the best damn direction giver, map reader on this planet.
For gods sake, I use to work at the 800 number for AAA travel, I got people all around the US with my map skills.
Must have been a man who refuses to stop for directions that did this study.
