Ask And You Shall Receive

AITOOW think men stop asking questions when they receive the answer that satisfies them while women don't stop asking questions until they receive an answer they don't like? I believe the explanation may have to do with how we punish children. If a man is punished, the punishment sticks. If he takes any action to extricate himself from his punishment he is ignored or punished further. When a woman is punished, she plays on peoples sympathies and the punishment is either reduced or eliminated. Her actions allow her to associate attention, love, acceptance, gifts with (initially) negative events. She begins to seek out misery. Add to that that it also serves as an eye for an eye guilt ameliorant. Any bad acts she has committed or anticipates committing on the cross examinee can now be forgiven (in her own mind) if she uncovers a bad act committed against her. A guy (probably also encouraged by ego and a desire for peace and happiness) will just accept any answer that doesn't punish him (cause him discomfort).
