Girl gamers?

Q: Why is it that boys like video games and girls don't? Is this a gross over-generalisation, or is that they just suck at them?

A: Girls do suck at video games. It's not just circumstantial, it's Darwinian.

I once saw a girl try to rake some leaves and, boy, it was hilarious. She didn't even move them all in the same direction, she just kept swirling them around the yard. She probably would have kept going forever if I hadn't stopped her. Granted, that was Kim Kardashian on a dare.

In caveman times, men had to hunt, gather and invent fire... women didn't have to do much at all, except learn how to sew and grow breasts that could be used to find the Earth's core. Evolution gave us the tools we needed for the tasks at hand.

Darwin himself threw like a girl and got picked last in every softball game he tried out for. Evolution, it seems, does have a sense of irony.
