Why do most people believe women are emotional, and men tend to think more logically?
These are common misconceptions that are utterly ridiculous. I'm basically going to ruin them for the greater good
1. Women are better investors
2. Women are better leaders. Jack Zenger studied 7280 leaders in 2011. Out of the 16 leadership competencies, women outscored men in all but 1.
3. Women More Entrepreneurial than Men
4. Yes women are in fact better drivers.
These roles require logic. There's more but I can't fit all of it.

I'm not a femnazi. Just sick of being critized as emotional and underestimated for being a woman

Sorry to burst your bubble but most men DO drive better than woman. If by being a better driver means you have to go 60km/hr on a perfectly deserted route , then the woman takes the cake. But in terms of control and speed , men still wins.
I think it's pretty certain that men are more capable than woman but then again without us woman , there won't be any men so each gender has it's up and downs. Most of the world leaders are men (Obama , etc etc) and behind every successful men is a woman backing him up.Like (4)

Most men are leaders, but if you read the article, the public preferred their female leaders. Not to mention the females performed greater than the males in all but one of the 16 leadership competencies.

Performing well for a test does not mean they would have the same competency when the situation arises. Men are able to adapt well in times of crisis whereas women would be swayed by their own emotions instead. This is also one of the reasons why people say that women are more emotional than men because they often get swayed by their emotions , making absurd decisions.

Your logic is flawed. One guy's research is it for you? Like everything else, it depends on the criteria used to measure. In the UK Margaret Thatcher was probably the most hated Prime Minister ever. It doesn't always work the way you say it does. Your hatred for men won't lead to a fulfilling life for you - hatred of any kind never does.

your accusation is invalid since I have no hatred towards the male species. There have been multiple studies with the same results you should check them out.

To answer you first question society has taught men to be tought and not show emotions so men appear less emotional but simple bottle things up. In my opinion that is wrong and for the same reason men appear more logical because they appear less emotional. I use the term appear becasue as you right ly say when put to the test some woman are more intellegent and adept than some men and for others the reverse is true. The truth is we call all excell if we put our mind to it weather we be male or female. It is not a question of can i it is a question of can i be bothered and one can argue that in todays sexist society that women have something to prove and therfore try harder. Does this make them more intellegent, no it just means that they have more to prove to overcome the opressive constraints that our media fueld society places on us all

When most of that "research" pertains to male-female interactions and comparisons, one might take that one way.

Yes, feminists are much better at creative lying and in believing their lies no matter how silly the lies are. That only serves to demonstrate the fact that women are not very good at logical thinking.

It's just that most women tend to think while taking emotions into account, and most men don't have to think like that, making them more "logical". It's also a matter of point of view and where you get your facts from

Women respond with fear, men respond with aggression in a time of need, this is why women are generally painted as emotional

Yeah, but it also depends on the individual. I tend to respond with both fear and aggression if faced with the right circumstance.

Society thinks of men as more logical because it casts men in the role of soldiers, workers and administrators. These roles make it necisscary to use logic constantly so most men become schooled in it's use and develope logical thinking habbits at least where work is concerned.
Women are used for producing children. And society has pushed them to be attractive to men. They are taught to obssess over fashion, hair styles and makeup. Women are taught to wear their sexuality on their sleeve, to; constantly put on a show for the men.
My sister is a long time women's rights advocate and has had a lot of trouble
Finding women ready to break out of the distructive cycle and utilise independant action.
Statistics indicate that women are better drivers , insurance companys know this as well. In fact women are capable of anything humanly possable. The trick is to undo the damage done by society. To keep them from sliding back into the ditch. The best way is to get them young, get rid of the stupid pink frilly toys and childrens shows, stop forcing these dehumanising gender roles on people.
As more women shake off the pathetic girly girl mentality and begin to do for them selves their reputation will change accordingly.
Why any man alive would ever want to involve himself with a babyish frilly self made invalid instead of a woman who acts and thinks like a grown adult I do not know.
