Girls lack general knowledge?

Wrong, Russia got their arse kicked....

The large majority of girls?

World population estimate (2009): 6,775,235,741.47

= approximately 3,387,617,870.74 females ("girls", if you will).

You've met and intellectually judged the majority of 3,387,617,870.74 girls?!

It's okay to extropolate data. Hey, you may think size 10-12 is normal but only because it was extrapolated from data much smaller than 3.4 billion. It's done everyday so you don't need to get your knickers in twist because someone is attempting to do it in a situation you don't like. I'm not actually agreeing with the OP but I really hate it when people use arguments like yours.

At first they did, then they kicked Germany back. I didn't realise you wanted me to mention every little detail thus giving you an essay. It was a TL;DR version.

I reckon girls are simply less likely to be interested in politics than men. My A-Level politics class was 100% men, for instance.


wat

Well with my controlled survey of all the girls i have met, I would say ~ 75% have no general knowledge so going by that, 75% of British girls are oblivious to the real world. As for foreign girls, I have not met enough to form a solid opinion, but so far they seem much better.

Look at the death tolls, it's obvious.
Germany's total military death toll was around half of that of Russias...
Russia didn't kick Germany's arse in any way, unless you count a 1 v 5 fight, with that one person beating 4/5, an arse whooping.

(a generalisation of course)

After talking to many people over the last few months, it has become very apparent that girls have almost zero general knowledge. They can tell you what is going on in their course or the X factor, but ask them where Germany is or what WW2 was about and they have no idea. I was reminded of this when a girl on TSR who was 20 had no idea what 9/11 was all about, even though it will be one of the most important historical events during her life.
What excuse do you have for this ignorance when you live in an age of instant communication and access to huge amounts of data all for free?

Yet for some reason guys tend to be better with general knowledge, from geography, politics, and history, for some reason we know far more, yet if you ask a person why they know this they can not explain why. I put it down to simply being more inquisitive.

Do other people find this to be the same with girls they meet, or guys?
Do you girls with general knowledge find these girls do not help with fighting stereotypes such as the stupid blonde etc?

I apologise, I think you misunderstood my definition of 'arse kicking'.
Russia are pretty much why we won the war.

They won, they didn't kick anyone's arse though.

By kick arse I meant won.

Sorry for the confusion.

I can see your reasoning, but your theory doesn't really work. You can't assume that the sample of girls that you've come into contact with in your small area of Britain are representative of all other girls in the UK. You've gotta take a whole load of things into consideration; age, environment (physical and behavioural), educational background, not to mention the method you're using to measure intelligence, and what aspects of intelligence.

What ridiculous generalizations to make. I don't an excuse for this behaviour because I don't relate to any sort of ignorance you just mentioned.

Pointless, silly thread.

Thanks really appreciated........................ T*AT!!!

I know where germany is, what ww2 was about and probably more than the girls you talked to because I like to know these things

To kick someone's arse usually means to win impressively or very effectively, Russia did neither.
It doesn't just mean they won.
