Oh dear !

If you have spent any time sleeping with a female you
would understand this to be true as was my experience
after 30 years of marriage. It goes without saying that
females find it impossible to switch off their emotions
and even while sleeping apparently but that's
understandable as that's the was it is..
So where does the "strong woman" and "supermom" or even
"we can do anything" attitude come into it without it
having any affect on her ?
Women have been complaining (again) far and wide about
the toll it has on their health and wellbeing, living up
to the feminist hyperbole (1.obvious and intentional
exaggeration.)..
Apparently not all is good in the "supermom or "strong
women" department. Now there's a surprise !..

Feminist Utopia insists on that outcome doesn't it ?

Rarely are we exposed to the truth. Women's health
deteriorating (rarely mentioned and if not totally
ignored, exposed only when seeking more guvmint funding),
increased female violence, increase in drug taking of
both hard and prescribed drugs (again ignored) and
ofcourse every opportunity taken in today's media to
demonstrate that all is well..
But we recognise b*ll*** when we read it so it's
refreshing that on the odd occasion we read that the
victimhood specialist does actually have a minor crack in
that "we are better than you" persona..(pl. personas The
role that one assumes or displays in public or society;
one's public image or personality, as distinguished from
the inner self.)
Note: another massive University study by the way, a
whole 193 people involved..

Continue with the (hand-wringing) angst delivery..

Note 2: Cannot have any article about women ofcourse
without demonstrating at least one imaginary male
negative behavioural problem. But if she was putting out
instead hyperventilating all night it would make that
disappear would it not..
Women have more nightmares than men, study finds.

Women suffer more nightmares than men because they find
it harder to switch off their emotions at the end of the
day, research has found.
By Richard Savill

They carry their worries into their dreams, and continue
to process emotional concerns while they are asleep,
according to the study.
The findings came from a study of 193 male and female
volunteers at the University of the West of England (UWE)
in Bristol.
When asked to record their most recent dream, 19 per cent
of male students reported having a nightmare compared to
34 per cent of women. Their emotions were recorded in
diaries.
Jennifer Parker, a psychology lecturer at the university,
who carried out the study over five years, said it was
the first to examine the difference between women's and
men's nightmares.
She said: "From our results it appears that men and women
differ in the frequency of nightmares - women have more -
and women perceive those nightmares to be more
emotionally intense.
"I think that women use their dreams as a subconscious
coping strategy.
"I believe these results show that women carry over their
waking concerns into their dream life more so than men
do, and they appear to have more difficulty with
'switching off' their concerns."
Her work found women's nightmares could be divided into
three categories, being chased or life threatened, losing
a loved one, or confused dreams.
She said: "The interesting thing is, looking at the
content of the nightmare reports, men and women are
experiencing the same things, but women are experiencing
them more intensely.
"Women had more unpleasant dreams than men and unpleasant
dreams contained more misfortune, self-negativity and
failures."
Other research found women's dreams contained more family
members, more negative emotion, more indoor settings and
less aggression than men's dreams.

Men's dreams contained more references to sexual
activity. Men reported more actual intercourse, while
women reported more kissing and sexual fantasies about
other dream characters.

So?
