Alright yall, experiment time.

Go bird watching. Or squirrels. Something hard to spot that moves quickly.

Scan the treeline, or instead fixate on a point straight ahead. Do what comes naturally first, then the opposite. What method "spots" the motion first?

See what method works better for you. Hope it helps!

That's why I can never find anything and have to ask my girlfriend for help. I'm bad at scanning the periphery.

I thought these were guitar hero screenshots at first

We'll never get better game sense if we don't keep an eye on our surroundings!!!

This is what peripheral vision is for.

Leaves me wondering if this indicates some kind of biochemical/neurological difference, or just like sociological differences. Like are women processing vision differently from men, or is this happening just because women are more worried about getting attacked.

I'm absolutely flabbergasted that anyone walks anywhere without constantly scanning around them. How do people have the attention span to just look at where they are going and only where they are going?? And that is just the first hurdle I have...

Doomguy is a woman, confirmed.

I aggressively look every direction. Mine is 360

Men and women also navigate differently. Men tend to navigate by direction and women tend to navigate by landmarks. I suppose looking around alot as a woman helps find those important landmarks.

I always wonder if women were the gathers becuase of how they navigate and look around, or were women the gathers becuase they could navigate by landmark and tend to look aound alot?

As a transfem I am always looking for the bear :3
