Sod the driving thread, have you seen some of the others?

"to want a holiday even though DH says we can't afford it"
"The cat just been sick and I called the dog in to clean it up for me."
"to contact my X's girlfriend and offer her some help"
"to be questioning my entire life plan because I read Stephen Biddulph's Raising Babies?"
"to be outraged that living tv have cancelled"

Are all women this bad, or does Mumsnet attract a disproportion number of the mentally unstable?

When you are stuck in a house with only small brats to talk to and coffee mornings to look forward to you go mad.

Good bit of lateral thinking, but all the same ..

Women on average have cheaper car insurance because they will spend more time looking for cheap insurance. Insurance companies have seen this and so provide products that say 'womans cheap car insurance' so they can attract woman who are looking for cheap car insurance.

It has absolutely nothing to do with the actuarial risk.

They discover much the same thing about their insurance when they prang their car too...

Nonsense.

Women's accidents tend to be smaller cheaper ones there as mens are more expensive. Mainly because they are to do with dithering at slow speeds.

No, you are wrong. Woman actually tend to claim more on their accidents, and are more likely to be making a fraudulent claim by adding stuff on (iPod in the glove box: of course you had dear).

What you are saying are amongst the "marketing myths" spread by insurance sales companies to create a false reason why their products are cheaper. The real reason they are cheaper is because they are not as good as a more expensive one.
