OT - why is it that men can't find things?

Forgive me ladies if I offend but my mother used to say, "That's why God had to put a man's penis right in front exactly at arm's reach so they could find it...or run the risk of the human race dying out."
Not a bad theory based on my experience.

Ahahahahaha!!! (OH really needs a "like" button)...so hilarious (because it's TRUE!) jazzycat!
I know what you mean, i think one of the contributing factors to my divorce was having to tell this man EVERYDAY for 15 YEARS where his socks were. I never moved them, he never found them.
However, He came close to needing a proctologist to remove them.
I feel your pain.
Seriously. Studies on parenting reveal that these behaviours (that there is a place for things, and that things need to go back to their place) are far more strictly enforced (as well as more harshly corrected when not complied with) in girl children than in boy children. Girls (as a social class, not always individually) are expected to know, comply, and follow through with this kind of work, boys (as a social class, not always individually) are expected to lapse in doing it, do it badly when it is done, and are excused from doing it, or released from the expectation of getting it done.
Does that go along with men not cleaning up after themselves? Like, if my partner (who is generally pretty considerate, and would never tell you that he thinks it should be my job to clean up after him) is eating popcorn and he drops a piece on the floor, there is a good chance he will somehow not notice it and just leave it there. Now, I very rarely drop food without realizing that I dropped it, plus if it is in plain sight on the floor, I would see it and pick it up. Or when he feeds the cats, he frequently dribbles a little bit of the icky saucey stuff in the can on the counter. He does not notice it and does not wipe it up, so it dries and gets gross and then I have to clean it later. It's hard for me to understand how he can be so non-observant.

I just had this same discussion with my DH. Frequently he will tell me we are out of something and it's right there!
I found an article that references it...but not the actual article. Apparently women see in more detail than men!
