Good on you!

Angry murder hornets... so true XD

As someone with ADHD and a male I have no void. I rarely get to enjoy true silence. This isn't a struggle that's specific to women. But I do understand that more women then men deal with this.

This depends on the person, not on gender, I think

I know the void, but only from using CBD drops. I called it dial tone. Am female.

I wish I had a void

I didn't know people could have no tought in their head. I always think of something, if not overthink a problem, then just about what to cook tomorow.

It can be achieved with THC or other mild mental alteration, and INSTRUMENTAL music, or foreign language music. The point is to drift with the music without analysing or letting words lead you to memories or intrusive thoughts. Headphones are best, or closed room with good quality speakers, so nothing distracts.

Not always angry, we dream too

Ahh yes. The typical female brain, combined with ADHD, forms uncontrollable chaos.

This!!! Yes!!!! Finally someone understands what it's like! It never stops and it's sooo exhausting.

I think maybe you've just got an unusually zen mind? All the people I know of both genders think about stuff constantly.

I think it kinda depends, it's been the opposite in some of the relationships I've had 😅

especially the virgos

Hey everyone,, I've found one of those people with no internal monologue...

MEN’S MINDS ARE EMPTY?!?! I THOUGHT THAT WAS JUST FIGURATIVE!!!

.......and men think they can be a woman with some surgery, hormones and makeup. Sooooooo not happenin'..... that "flaming '80's stock exchange" DNA can not be "transplanted"...... Maybe that's why they can't define what a woman is .....they are CLUELESS.

What, you mean men's brains are not an 80s stock exchange on fire full of angry murder hornets???

Yep lol that's so true. We can't help it. I wish i could shut my mind off

We're just very smart. Sometimes hornets help.

That is very true for me. I take a med to shut my brain down enough at night so I can sleep.

Silence sounds lovely. I usually have four or five streams of thought running through my brain at any given time, three songs, and the audio of every single word on every single sign or label I see. And one monologue just repeating the last thing I heard or said over and over.

LOL

So when we wonder what a guy is thinking the answer may really be nothing? That is just inconceivable to a woman.

Definitely. My mind never stops, its a hindrance most of the time

Men can sit there with an empty head. Women's brains can't do that. We're always thinking about something, and maybe even several things all at one time.

Odd, oposite for me. Literally asked my ex what she was thinking about all the time with the consistant answer of "nothing"

It can be extremely annoying. Sometimes I'd love to be able to experience the void!

Really. Lol

This is hilarious 😂

A burning 80's stock exchange with murder hornets perfectly describes my mind 😂😂

LMAO I LOVE THIS!!!! Angry murder hornets...believe me when I say, we wish it were different!!!!

And for those lucky enough to also have anxiety & ADHD, you're just drowning in all the thoughts! Silence? Don't know her!

I ask my husband, as he's sitting in the dark, what he's thinking about. "Nothing..." I've decided to say that he's meditating. I can't do that even when I try.

This is accurate.

Haha.. yeah.. check this out: https://tinyurl.com/2p8nw66m

Another asinine thing on this list. Yeah, because us men are just lizard brained Neanderthals that only think of food, sex and sleep....

This is just from a misogynistic b******e who can stare at a wall without a thought? Do you have a brain injury? I guess us women are just full of angry, chaotic thoughts.

A hug. Without trying to initiate anything. A hug without touching intimate body parts thinking its funny. Just a hug, it's really not hard. You're way more likely to get fun times later on if you respect her needs in that moment and make her feel valued and heard.

which proves how poor awareness about periods are. not trying to make this comment negative though, i'm actually very happy OP figured this out

Plus the bowl is F*****G COLD.

I need a friend like this in my life.

My wife hates her stretch marks. When she's feeling extra down on them I remind her I think they're sexy. I mean we (she) brought life into this world and those stretch marks are a constant reminder of all the memories of her pregnancy. There were bad times for sure, but I see the faces of my babies in those stretch marks. She endured all of that for us. She brought my greatest joys into this world. How can I look at those and not appreciate everything she's done?

Yes!

Not only women. Sometimes I need to vent about my idiot colleague or customer, talk about how stupid they are for five to ten minutes, then have a cup of tea or shot of rum (or yell at wall for a minute) and then I can forgot about it. And sometimes I just need to hear myself to see the solutions. After all, how else I can discuss the problem with somebody who knows as much as I do about the problem?

yes. just yes.

Way too few people have realized this yet. Edit: Upon several requests I changed "less" into "few" ;)
