I am so tired of this overgeneralization and oversimplification of a subject that is bound to be extremely personal and different from person to person. Blanket statements like "why women should ~~" or "why men should ~~" are never ever going to be true and these media outlets and writers need to stop using these cover-all phrases that are bound to be met with disapproval from ~80% of the relevant population.

Relax :). Everything is a generalization or simplification, unless you're looking at research papers all day. And those will make for dry conversation eventually, in addition to halting pretty much all efficient communication. "BUT WAIT, what was the sample size?" "I can't make a decision because the relevant and precise research has not been completed yet." It's in the opinion section. It applies to a subset of people. I think many people understand that. Maybe even ~80% of all people. With 3 std deviations of confidence.
