When will Deleted change his Profile Pic and Name?

Uh...not so much a wise saying maybe

If you in fact are a girl/lady or whatever, it's actually pretty weird seeing girls playing ET games and having a liking to history and philosophy and all these things. Everyone, not only girls, but people in general hate History because it gives sleepless nights before tests. They only see it as a bunch of lessons which has endless answers and which aches your hands after you give the test. Our education system is to be blamed for this. They only put an emphasis on marks and in history, everyone scores less because of various reasons and because of which everyone hates it.

Also, knowing history doesn't give a whole lot of job opportunities, due to which it's been categorized under "General Knowledge". Whenever I ask my friends any random history question and they don't answer, they reply that I have great General Knowledge.

So Deleted, how did you got into history? What gave you the interest to read it?

I got psychology as a degree, I think that explains why I don't find history boring or something not to study due to job opportunities. As for histoy, it's an interesting story actually. I enjoyed history when i was younger, but never tried to get deep into. I preferred reading science or philosophy books, and would sometimes have this weird wanting to read books on strategy. It was by accident that my parents bought some book on ancient greek mythology,and i really loved the goddess Athena, and that got me into strategy. Long story short, i realized how important history was after i understood politics more. Most of the knowledge we have of politics, diplomacy and strategy is based on the mistakes of the past. We can read why something is a mistake, but seeing how those mistakes changed our lives today makes it more visceral. I'd put the study of history slightly below science ,math and philosophy in terms of study significance, which is where politics,strategy,diplomacy and economics lie.

I didn't said that history is not for females. I just meant that people in general, not only girls don't like history.
Of course we can earn money through history and languages, but very less in compared to Math/Science.
And, I hate math

I would say women are more narrative based in thinking. This is because of the fact that women take care of children and keep the social cohesion in the group while the men go and hunt, that's why women evolved to have a much deeper form of empathy than men. Of course, this does not mean that all women are more empathic, but rather it's more than likely that a woman would be a lot more empathic than men. Stories and the like resonate much more in women, and that makes women better in handling individuals and groups. Basically natural diplomats. Men, on the other hand, developed a different line of thinking. Their empathy is much more distant,as you don't want to feel emotions when hunting prey. Imagine a hunter feeling bad and not able to throw his spear on the deer or boar. This makes men much more "rational", although i'd argue the proper term is information based. This makes men naturally good at leading and tactics. Of course, as a human being, our goal is to push those limitations and improve ourselves. Women should learn to be more cold and distant, as the problem is that they can get too caught up with feelings and emotions. Men, on the other hand,ought to learn to use emotions as a weapon: knowing how one feels deeply can give key information in how one thinks. This was one mistake Napoleon had: he did not try to empathize with the plight of the germans and Austrians, and rather gave them harsh terms rather than generous ones to heal the wounds. 

The goal of humanity is to try and understand where those stereotypes came from, to accept the truths in them, and use our rational brains to mold a society and culture which goal is to improve and improve. It's quite dumb to simply accept our limitations, and it's also quite dumb to glorify them. Anyway, i got caught up with the feels. John Marston, i would say in general,women might not find them interesting simply based on how they are presented in school. I bet you, that if history was presented from a PoV of a soldier from that era, or a peasant or king, their plights and hardships, then women would love history.

I actually disagree that the reason is evolution. Atleast a big part of it is society, culture and gender norms, not necessarily evolution, although it probably plays a part too.

What I mean is, society and most importantly culture let our behaviour change so quickly and be so versatile, for which we can thank evolution.
