Why won't men ask for directions?

Why do men refuse to ask for directions even when they are clearly lost? Adakah mereka tidak mahu dianggap bodoh oleh orang yang mereka minta bantuan direktori tu (terutamanya jika orang itu lelaki)? Does it mean that they have defeated you in the directory department and that your ego cannot and will not handle this defeat? Or that you need to prove to yourself that you can and will figure out where you are because men simply do not get lost. They explore.

Walaupun GPS dah kata "turn left", ada juga beberapa kerat yang akan turn right. Kenapa perlu ikut cakap mesin? GPS bukan lah hebat mana pun..hanya sebuah sistem pandu arah satelit yang terdiri daripada 24 buah satelit yang terletak di orbit dan boleh berfungsi di mana sahaja, di dalam apa jua cuaca, 24 jam sehari. "What's the big deal?", kata mereka. "I don't need no machine telling me where to go. I know exactly where I am", kata mereka lagi. Sure you do, babe. Sure you do.
