Girls vs. Boys

[BOVADDICT]

In the new super street and turbo magazine of mine both have issues on girl tuners. Also the new chanhassen magazine had a thing on a girl who tuned a 99gst with sweet fast n furious vinyl and make some club.

My girlfriend from highschool changed my brakes on my Grand Prix, cut off my rusted fog light brackets with an acetylene torch, then started my bumper on fire and put it out by smuthering it with her bare hand, and broke into my cavalier for me when I locked the keys in it with a flat head screwdriver she pulled out of her pocket. She is proof enough that some chicks know wassap.

To me it has nothing to do with sex. It has to do with comments that are off the wall dumb. But what really is annoying is when it was a girl, and she thinks the reason she is catching flack is because she is female, and plays that card over and over and over. But nope, it's not her vagina to blame, it was her airheaded Jessica Simpson-esque comment!

^^ I agree with the second half of that, the first half is cool too. I think the main thing is not about boys vs girls but its "knowledge" vs "acts like they have knowledge." This is not just between boys and girls, some guys dont even know how to do anything or how things work. If people were willing to learn things and go educate themselves on the basics, things would be different.

Liking cars and wanting to modify is one thing, but if you dont attempt shit yourself then you will always be a newb. This applies to both sexes, you just see it alot more with girls because guys can blend in when they act dumb. They dont make threads like this ;)

From my point of view, I've usually had good experience's in the car community when it comes to being female. Probably because I got sick of AJ being into cars so I started to pay attention and help out where I could until I got my own. Even then, when my car sucked, my friends didn't redicule me, they tried to help me fix problems or help me if I was doing something wrong. Those people know who they are, so I won't name names on here. I think it depends on how you act around them. I for one can't stand it when girls try and act like the know it all (or opposite, they play dumb), and dress like little sluts. But that's just my opinion. I could go on, but I don't feel up to it....

The thing is Jana, you didn't say you knew more than you did. I see that a lot out of women. They know more than 95% of women, so they think they know a lot. That isn't necesarily true when comparing to guys. Some nameless women get all pissy when someone says they don't know what they are talking about, when they really don't. It doesn't have anything to do with sex though, it is because they really don't! The same would be said to a guy and has been many times on here. Some women throw out the sex card as an excuse, just like the race card gets thrown out sometimes just as an excuse in other parts of life.

Holy shit JET, your the next Dr. Phil.

I think my opinion about girls will be bias, because as of now I haven't met one girl that knew much about cars or really had a clue about most things in life. However they usually have perfected how to bitch, complain, and try to be controlling.

The perfect girl to me would have no teeth and the only thing she could do to communicate is Huummmmmmmmmmm!

i would say your best bet would be to wait until you are pmsing, then write the artical. Women are fucking evil when they are bleeding.

I second that.

Bitching. Check.

Complaining. Check.

Controlling. Check.

Worthless. Check.

In 16+ years of drag racing I've met ONE woman that knew anything at all about cars and wasn't afraid to turn a wrench. I actually saw her bust a knuckle or two. Very cool, but she wasn't very attractive. She turned out to be the local track groupie. That reinforces my previous thoughts on them all being whores.

I've known one woman that could drive pretty decent. My friend's wife regularly won the non-electronics bracket racing class (and sometimes the electronics class) with a mostly stock 5-speed Mustang running 13.20's-12.90's. 5.oh lights all day long. Bracket racing isn't my thing but it sure was cool to watch her drive to the track, smoke dragsters/race cars, win the money, swap tires and drive her street car home.

Other than that I have found very few uses for them.

Dont forget pistol grip ears and cute hair. Gotta have something good to look at. A flat head might be nice for a spot to put your drink but thats probably asking too much. :D

All of you have very good points!! From both sides of the perspective!

I'm sure I do some of what you guys are saying, however, I know that I don't know much about cars, and I will be thefirst to tell ya. But I'm not a complete dumb ass and I yes I can get under a the hood and know my way around.

As far as those dumb sluts Jana was talking about, they piss me off. I knew a girl with a brand new 350Z and she walked around taking pics of it wearing nothing but a bikini and like 1/2 a skirt.. I asked her once what she was going to do to it.. she gave me a confused look and was like my dad is buying me rims?! I wanted to puke after that...
