I've worked in a grocery store for about 3 months now stocking shelves. I have learned quite a bit from it by firsthand being able to look at the general populus for hours a day and how they behave in a natural environment. Here's what I've learned:
​
Women must be terrible drivers in general, because every time I have to walk down the same path as a female they either freeze up or end up picking an angle that puts them directly in front of me. I don't drive yet, but now I fear women drivers as they can't even manage to navigate an aisle properly with a shopping cart moving at walking pace.
Females in the workplace (and sometimes men) will try to pass on job duties to you that are not yours. Every time I will bring a product to another department, the females that are supposed to stock it will try to say: "Do you know where it goes?". Even if I did, it's not my job to stock product from another department. I just reply with "I was told to drop this off here, where do you want me to leave it".
Most women get confused at being given directions very easily. If they see how to do something they can mimic it, but if you direct them to a location in the store they look at you with a very confused look oftentimes and say "Ok I'll find it" or thank you and end up wandering around the wrong sections before they realize where they are. It's like a majority of the time women aren't even completely aware of their exact location and are simply wandering around like a confused, giggly child.
Most women will try really hard to give the appearance that they're just as good as males at their assigned duties, but they simply don't have the energy, muscle mass, or quick recall ability to support it most of the time and will fall behind. They're not told to hurry up or that they're not doing enough; it's enough that they're a female and (sort of) doing the job a male can do. They are hardly scolded for doing wrong because they're seen as sensitive, intelligent people that can use their smarts to make up for their lack of physical ability, which is untrue. Occasionally women will small-talk with male managers simply because they don't want to do work, while male managers give the impression that they're being validated, mostly unaware that the female is simply wanting to move her lips over her arms and legs.
Most women love being oggled at if you're half decent looking. If a women has her rack hanging out or is wearing tight sweatpants that show off her ass, and she catches you looking, more often than not she's either going to smile or show off even more for you to see. They are seeking either an emotional reaction from a weak minded male or a lack of one (which is what they prefer and gives them excitement), in the form of body language.
Women are very reactive to your emotional state unless they're crazy, distressed/emotionally distraught, or insane. With the women I was anxious with, I received body language of anxiety back immediately. With women I was confident with, they'd get closer to me to speak to me, or try to occasionally make a bit of small talk as they're walking away, or endearingly thank you. When you're uncomfortable, women can somewhat sense it but can't 100% put their finger on it oftentimes unless you visibly show it. When you visibly show it, they want to get away from you as soon as possible and their body language reacts as if they're being dragged away by an invisible hand behind them. Tl;dr they're very reactive to how you behave.

Just to clarify a few things:
- Statistics on death by car accident show that men are more more dangerous drivers than women n pratice. There more casualties.
- if you are going to climp the ladder in the shop or use that work experience to grow then maybe it is worthwile to work your best. If you don't, there no point of doing more than necessary. Working less and letting others do you job is actually the smart move. They are limited in a way because they failed to make you work in their place, but their attitude isn't necessarily stupid.
- remember that you are speaking of people working in a shop. Men or women, they are not the smartest in town for most, particularly if they have been there a long time and didn't manage to evolve. You are young, maybe paying for studies, or maybe it is your first job. I don't know but if you are smart, you'll evolve and leave eventually. If you are not, regarless of gender you'll will not and keep the same basic job for ever.

I always laugh at people when they say some variation of this. Umm how are you going to make up for your lack of physical strength with your intelligence when men are also smarter than women?

I have worked in a female dominated field (an area within a University) for years and can attest that as a heterosexual male it can be hellish.
1) Rather than making the effort and taking the time to work something out or find something themselves, 99 times out of 100 they will ask for help. If you fall into the trap of helping them, then you are not only doing your job but theirs too.
2) Women want and demand to be enabled in the workplace at every turn and every stage.
3) Female management is very risk adverse. Decisions will be made on things where the solution is not the best solution but rather is the solution that appeases the most people with the minimum of possible blow-back.
4) They lie ... about everything, all the time.
5) They will play the victim card at every opportunity.
6) Men working in the same workplace have to do at least 1.5 times the work of women in the same level/position in order to be considered worthy of promotion or competent.
7) Cliques will often form amongst them, where gossip is rife.
8) They are FAR less likely to get fired or in trouble for the same level of misdemeanours or lack of
productivity.
9) They are capable of talking about inanities and nonsense among themselves for hours on end. Hours where they should be working.
10) They take far more sick leave than men.

"they are very reactive to how you behave" 100% true. Im terrible at reading body language, but i have come across certain scenarios when girls told me i didn't look happy or something was irritating me and they were 100% right, its almost creepy how well they can sense and read your body language/frame. This is why frame is so important.

It’s good. No drama, no lawsuits and no temptations. Fairly masculine culture too, boss is a former sea captain and built like a silverback gorilla which sets a good atmosphere.

Women do this all the time. They just tense up, look down and won't move out of (my) way. Why they are forcing this interaction that they are not comfortable with is strange. Maybe they like the forced attention.
Yes because they see you as low status and don't respect you. Now that you know what they think about you, what should you do in return? They don't respect you, so any disobedience or out-right retaliation will be met with extreme bitterness. The best thing to do is maintain frame, force them into eye contact, be silent and make them uncomfortable and back down. Then when/if they basically submit, now the frame has been turned around and they will not get all bitch about you saying no. Make them break eye contact first and and don't let them think for a second you are even considering their command, or they will get eager/hungry and even more angry when you tell them no.

Most of the people in other departments tried pulling this crap when I was new and it was my first interaction with them. Now when they try to ask the question I just pretend I didn't hear it and ask where they want it. If they repeat it, I just put it down somewhere and say "Here's good?" and leave.

Giving them the kind of look you’d give something you just stepped in also works.
[deleted] 5y ago
I've found looking at people in the center of their forehead when they're being douchenozzles makes them really uncomfortable.
AfricanBushDoctor 5y ago
If you want to make them really uncomfortable look at their hair/hairline instead of their forehead.

OP
Most people in TRP will downvote you if you’re not talking about sex, how to get it, your lack of caring for women, etc.
You’re young and seem to be very introspective, which is good. All these behaviors you’re learning about women will only grow and help you later on.
It will be second nature for you to understand how to act. Once you’re old enough and have enough experience, you’ll eventually be completely independent of the way that they feel ( which you’re already seeing they react positively to ).
This stage you’re in is good. Learn, grow, mature, excel financially and have fun with women. The only thing that matters is being happy.

"...it's not my job to stock product from another department. I just reply with "I was told to drop this off here, where do you want me to leave it?"
Well played young man.
Also - nice work on the observations. It seems you're learning more than just restocking shelves.

I’m in my early 20s ( 22 to be exact) what I have noticed about working with most females they tend to gossip about everything. One time I cushy them laughing and every time I look back they stopped and waved. I walked past them to take my break, they stated talking about who good I was at my job. There good people but if you paid them to talk all day about random shit they will.

If you were 20yo female and a group of men did same as they did their would be a metoo war and mass firings. Double standards again.

I'm not angry at all. Don't know what gave you that impression.

That's all well and good, but why do you care that women are bad drivers or they are poor with directions?
​
I don't care about that stuff. The only thing that you said that I remotely care about is that they are reactive - because it helps me when interacting with them in order to get sex from them. The rest is just noise.

I don't care if they're poor with directions. I do care if they're bad at driving because that could endanger my life. I'm just trying to divulge the knowledge I've grasped through experience.
BumblingBeta 5y ago
You do realise that everyone who drives has to pass a driving test, right? That brings everyone up to a bare minimum standard that they must demonstrate in order to get their license. So every woman who drives has passed that minimum standard.
If you have a problem with that minimum standard, you should take it up with the government, because they are the ones who set the standards for road safety.
The biggest dangers on the road are males, in my experience. Women are less polite and more bitchy (they don't say thank you, they don't let you out, they won't stop for you to cross the road etc.), but as far as having my life endangered, it's males who have come closest to that. Simply because males have more testosterone, so they take more risks, and therefore endanger other people's lives more often.

Well kinda. Women crash more than men per mile driven. They are horrible at controlling motor vehicles. They make up for it slightly by being more cautious. Men crash harder. Which is why their crashes result in more death.
haroldpeters 5y ago
when your in a car with a woman driving who just slams on the breaks instead of accelerating out of the way because she see's a car coming, freaks out and the car just plows right into the passenger door your sitting at, you will change your mind.
Atheist_Utopia 5y ago
That and driving are kinda unrelated
weag5l 5y ago
It's pretty relevant actually to the female mindset. They are horrible at interacting with reality. Everything is social.
