I was riding to work yesterday  when I observed a female driver,  who cut right in front of a pickup truck,  causing the driver to drive onto  the shoulder to avoid hitting her.
  
This evidently angered the driver enough that he  hung his arm out his window and gave the  woman the finger.
  
"Man, that guy is stupid," I thought to myself. I ALWAYS  smile nicely and wave in a sheepish manner  whenever a female does anything to me in  traffic, and here's  why: 
I drive 48 miles each  way every day to work.
That's 96  miles each day. 
Of these, 16 miles  each way is bumper-to-bumper. 
Most of  the bumper-to-bumper is on an 8 lane  highway. 
There are 7 cars every 40 feet  for 32 miles.
That works out to 982  cars every mile, or 31,424 cars. 
Even  though the rest of the 32 miles is not  bumper-to-bumper, I figure I pass at
least another 4000 cars.
That brings  he number to something like 36,000 cars that  I pass every day.
Statistically, females drive  half of these.
That's 18,000 women  drivers! 
In any given group of females, 1  in 28 has PMS. That's 642.
According to  Cosmopolitan, 70% describe their love life  as dissatisfying or unrewarding.   
That's  449 
According to the National Institute of  Health,  22% of all females are seriously considered  suicide or homicide.   That's 98.
And  34% describe men as their biggest problem.   That's 33. 
According to the National Rifle  Association, 5% of all females carry weapons  and this number is increasing.
That means  that EVERY SINGLE DAY, I drive past at  least one female that has a lousy love  life, thinks men are her biggest problem, has seriously  considered suicide, or homicide, has PMS, and is armed.
Give her  the finger? I don't think so.
