The possibility of a connection between romance and difficulty understanding women has been mentioned. I’m a bisexual woman, and I don’t have any problem identifying with or understanding men. I often find women somewhat more difficult. I think this is because I’m much more attracted to women, which makes them much more difficult to approach and raises the stakes somewhat.
Incidentally, I was rather surprised that there are so few women on Less Wrong. It hadn’t occurred to me that this would be the case.
