Women are always late, so they say. And so it seems to be reality considering the make-up to be retouched, the wrong bag to change or anything else remembered only after crossing the threshold of the house. But is it true that women are always late or is it just a cliché? Well, there is research and this does not deny the “female pathological delay”.
Why, then, are we so late?
Women always late: science answers the reasons why
Who has never said, at least once, “I’m coming” to those who were waiting for us. That “I’m coming” was just a lie, possibly you were still putting on the eyeliner, but this got smudged and you had to touch up the whole eye, and so on. Once finished, you rushed to take the bag but it was empty since you had used another one the day before, and so on.
In short, once at the threshold you think you have escaped the danger of extreme delay but the keys in the bag just can’t find them. Why aren’t there!
Women are always late. Here is the conclusion that comes after all that chain of causes and effects. People who wait say it, men in general say it, and even scientific research says it. Published by the Journal of Psychology , the research explains how at the origin of the constant delays of women, there is also a psychological cause.
The main reasons for the delay
Women they underestimate the time available to them because following a strict schedule puts them in one unsustainable stressful condition. So, if you want a woman to reach you on time, putting pressure on her by timing her is definitely the last option to consider.
In addition to this, another “objective” element that makes women waste time is clothing. Women have many clothes to wear, sometimes too many, and when they have to, they waste a lot of time choosing which one is the most suitable. Many men also have overflowing wardrobes, but the point is women have a wider choice, that is, they have to choose, for example, between trousers or a skirt. Problem that man uproots at the base by not wearing skirts! But there is more. Not only underestimating the times and too much choice in clothing, too the “stock market” issue it is one of the causes of delay.
The “stock market question”, the cause of (inevitable!) Delays
Women change purse often moving your important items, such as keys, from one bag to another. The problem of the stock exchange therefore correlates with that of keys which is the object “never found” par excellence. The problem is that, in general, you only notice the absence of the keys when you are about to leave. So you start all over again, emptying your bag and looking for the missing keys among a thousand things. Then, you remember to have them in another bag where in fact they will end up being. Taken the keys, you are finally ready to go out. Too bad it is already half an hour late!
