Ying and Yang
 

O.k., this is the o.t. so here it goes: ("flame suit Activate")...

There are benefits and flaws in the way people think: usually according to their personal perspective.
The idea of perfection, god, etc... is and always will be a carrot just beyond the horses mouth.
The omnipotent thought/idea/strategy is built into the human sub-concious to seek more, regardless of whether there is a warm bed, lack of direct threat, and unlimited food.

Well, I guess form follows function.....(?)

So what would the man designed by a woman look like?

Well, I can sure as hell tell you what a woman designed by a man would look like:

wooooohooooooo!

z-man no where to be seen

I'd love to show her my "O-face".

Nice, but looks too much like a squared-jaw man ("transformers-unite" from the cartoon comercials) for my tastes.

BTW: Why does her eyelid look so swollen?

So what are then benefits of mechanical "laziness"?

Does that mean that one doesn't have to completely remove the engine to change the spark plugs?
Does that mean not being confined to servicing the car only at dealerships?

It occurs to me that the design principles these women picked are really quite good. Infrequent maintenance? High reliability? The whole front of the car opens up, so I don't have to be a contortionist to check a valve, and I only need to check valves once every billion years? Bonus. Now if I could only find a woman with these characteristics...

The article presents many of the design principles as though they had never been conceived of by a man. Ridiculous. If women ruled the world, would missiles be shaped the same? (yeah, but they'd also vibrate).

If you want to know what women like in an automobile, look at Subaru. Granted, they may not be heterosexual women, but that wasn't a criterion for the Volvo exercise either.

Does this mean I can expect to see different toilet seats at Ikea? :rolleyes:

the article said that of all car buying American couples, 80% will end up getting what the woman wants.

1.Bull****
2.If you turned that statement around it would be the most sexist statement of the century.
3.Saturn did this same exact thing years ago. The Saturn cars were designed for women by women.
