Warning: O.F. talk. I don't think they're as fun as they once were. If I was younger, I'd probably disagree.

Re: Who are more likely to lie men or women?
Time is a determinant of relativity. Since there are, every day, more and more woman business people, politicians, and attorneys than ever before...my take is that the proportion of woman liars has to increase due to such natural causes and trends. But they've still got a long way to go to catch up with men.
Just think of all the lies that hunting, fishing, and other sports knowledge have engendered in the behaviors of men, not to mention strip clubs and brothels. No, there's probably equality when it comes to the personal relations stuff, but the "relative mendacity of men" shall continue to rule supreme for some time to come IMHO.
flow....

Yep, I like sleeping indoors in a nice warm bed.

Interesting point...I learned that people lie from my dad, I learned how to from my mom. Don't think that's gonna clear anything up though....

It's true... I've lied to you people all the time... It's fun ;/ lol but not just the funny and manipulate side... There is also the stupid or err how would you say it correctly.... The erm... mis-educated?? side or something.... like one of these 1 in 3 accounts of lies.... Could simply be from someone who lied to them, or information they mistook or muddled up or so on and so far... So not all the one in three occurances could be intentional... Ugh too early in the morning.. Too many words with more than six letters.....

Re: Who are more likely to lie men or women?
We all learn to lie as children, if we tell the truth we get into trouble, if we lie either there is no trouble or someone else gets it.  Mybe we should reward our kids for telling the truth rather than punish them for whatever they are telling the truth about (I broke it, I stole it, etc).
Snoopy - I love Calvin & Hobbs, couldn't you just smooch Hobbs - well I could.
