I have learned a lot in my psychology classes. I mean some stuff I have known, or sort of just figured, but than there is a lot of things I have learned. I love psychology for the most part. Althought I probably wont end up getting into it as a full time career- Ill still like it.
I think everyone should take a psychology course, especially because I think if you actually pay attention you can learn a lot, and maybe be more successful in relationships. Honestly.
Lately, in my high school psych class we have been talking about gender differences. Its very interesting.
Did you know guys only think using one side of their brain? In girls think using both? To help understand this concept u would also have to sort of know about the brain and the different parts in how they function. But basically this explains why guys dont understand things girls do. Or an example she (teacher) used was when your fighting with your boyfriend or girlfriend, its always the girls who tend to carry on the fighting, a male will think the fight is over, but the female wont, and she will continue on and on, going into more detail. In this is because both sides of her brain are running and shes thinking of a lot of different things. Where as the male who can only think with one side at a time, is concentrating on the little issues, and maybe wont understand why she is all mad.
hmm another example of this....
If you are told to go and clean the kitchen and wash the floor...
typically...a male is going to go and "wash the floor"
a female.. will go and CLEAN the kitchen as well as wash the floor.
Unless u guys a male specific directions on what you want him to do....he will most likely not do it. Its not a bad thing.... you just have to be sure to give them specific directions since they are not able to think with both sides.
Another interesting thing to me....which im sure a lot of guys will disagree- but males tend to gossip more, as well as be more touchy. Guys also differ n girls when it comes to general one on one conversations. Females like eye contact...whereas males dont. Males like side to side conversations where they are not lookiny directly into ones eye, and part of this has to do with the fact they cant concentrate if they are speakin to some1 and looking into their eyes.
ahh theres more..but lol I dont remember...
thats just stuff I wrote down :)
lol. I dunno I found it interesting. and males.. dont think im offending you in anyway. None of its bad.
In away I really think its helpful. Its basically a lot to do with some misunderstandings in relationships. When it comes to the females, and the males.
Its not ourrrr fault we are so sensitive and may think about things a lot :)
its us using both sides of our brain.
waaa laa
wellll Im almost done with college...
Im very excited to say... Im basically done except next thurs I have to take an exam.
