Only a man would attempt this

Just saw a headline on MSN "Man Tries to Remove Bees with Fireworks, Burns down Garage"

I remember reading about a women who burned down the house trying to kill a spider or maybe a snake? Doubt it's gender related lol.

One of the main fires burning right now I believe in So Cal was started by a man using a blow torch to take care of weeds around his house.. I have no words for such stupidity.

I don't think it is gender related, more like stupidity related.

Absolutely a stupid thing to do by anyone, and there are plenty of stupid people around.  It has nothing to do with the person being "only a man" or "just a man".  I don't like it when women downgrade men that way.  When you have such a low opinion of them, they will act accordingly.  It becomes a vicious cycle because women then complain about the very thing they have helped to create.  When you respect them (anyone for that matter) and believe in their capabilities, they will respond accordingly to that as well.

I think men tend to take risks more than women do, and act more impulsively. It probably has to do with testosterone, lol. JMHO.
