Maybe it's becuase some women don't like the way we multitask. Like drinking a beer, eating chips and watching a football game.........

Most pilots are chaps.

Mind you, this one is my kinda Girl.

The man has talent.
At one point, multitasking was just another word for screwing multiple things at once.

Impressive. That is true multitasking and a fine piece of music.

I find this drummer was quite artistic as well:

Experiences has teached me that women who spout the multitasking bollocks, ussualy indeed do multiple things wrong at once.

Wow, that musical piece was impressive.

I'll admit that when it comes to conversing, I find women much more able to multi-task than myself, or those men around. I can only have one conversation at once, maybe being able to stretch that to a short interruption. Women seem able to keep several conversations going at once, even when only talking to me.

On the other hand, put a keyboard or three in front of me, controlling a computer terminal or five, using two to four screens, running a dozen or score different programs and I'll show anyone just what multi-tasking is about.

A practise that I find extremely rude, rude enough for me to walk away from..

Women Less Likely To Multitask Than Men

Over the years we have been hearing the myth than women are supposedly better at multitasking than men.
The source of this myth has sometimes been explained on the simple basis that women acquire better multitasking abilities through doing more housework.
A new study from the Tinbergen Institute of The Netherlands has come up with some interesting findings.
In its Discussion Paper, the Tinbergen Institute states:

…our results do not support the stereotype that women are better at multitasking. Women suffer as much as men when forced to multitask and are actually less inclined to multitask when being free to choose.

The old adage was ' a woman's working is never done ' - what is basically means is that a woman never finishes the job she is doing.

Didn't I see that drummer on a Cadbury ad?

If men were as narcissistic about manhood as women are about womanhood then if we were keeping score it would be easy to determine that men are better at more things than women are. The things women are "better" at are debatable. The things men are better at we could just point out. Then women will point out that we aren't those men (but can they be sure?). Both men and women have talents but it seems like the best composers even to this day are men.

Men are better at creating and women are better at reciting.

Oh, a show of hands, would you rather be able to multitask like the man in the video or like Mozart, who wrote symphonies to be performed by different instruments at the same time or would you rather be able to hold up traffic, talk on the phone, write things down and drive horribly at the same time (women's version of multitasking)?

Do you recognize the different dances he's doing while drumming?

Some of them yes.

Yes, I've witnessed such terrible tragedies plenty of times and I laugh at the number of women who tow that pious myth.

So have I, much to their disgust. They raise that topic with puffed up chest and haughty demeanour but that soon disappears when the facts are forthcoming..

The myth is reinforced by the female perception that a man can't hold a conversation with her while doing another task. BUT: Men DO hold conversations with MEN while doing other tasks-- work, video gaming, watching sports, etc.

If women realized the problem was not with men's inability to multi-task but merely that the man was A) more interested in whatever it was that he was doing than her chatter or B) was specifically engaging in that activity to avoid her or C) both of the above-- then woman would have to admit she was just being an annoying, nagging, interrupting twit who couldn't give him a moment's peace.

Also, having been around female gamers, I know that they are comparably "tuned out" to conversation at least as much as any male during the same activity-- woman is not superior at multi-tasking in any way.
