Sometimes it so happens that even before a particular episode or incidence occurs, even when an event leading to the incidence ceases to exist, I get an inkling of what’s going to follow and what’s going to come my way. In simpler words I can expect the unexpected! (Which is so not cool sometimes…)
I’m sure all women experience this phenomenon quite often in their lives, and I’m sure all men agree to how strong and alarmingly accurate a woman’s intuition can be! It might not really stand up to scrutiny but in someway or the other this instinct is not merely a hunch.
It’s a premonition. Pleasant or unpleasant is not really a choice. The fact that it’s a portent subjects it to be totally unreasonable and irrational at times but it sure isn’t unnecessary and uncalled for. It’s strange how one can sense something which is not at all deducible. I’m not questioning the male ability to intuit but it’s an unstated truth which needs no proof that women do a better job at it.
It’s no joke, now that researchers are also working out scientific explanation to justify this incredible phenomenon (Researchers being mostly men, threatened because of obvious reasons!) giving it a more convincing name of ‘Women’s interpersonal discernment.’
As an example: I’m sure everyone’s witnessed a mother’s intuition which I might add, for the well-being of my male readers, is much safer than a wife’s or a girlfriend’s intuition.
It’s almost as if we women have some psychic connection with people we choose to be intuitive about. And if you ponder over this you’d be surprised to realize just how much we depend upon our sixth-sense at this mind-hacking game. It’s very rare that this sixth-sense let’s us down. Mostly, this gut-scrunching, bone-clenching feeling is non-debatably true, isn’t it?
You must be wondering why I said above that we have a psychic connection with people we choose to be intuitive about. Well everyone knows how this works! Its funny how our so called ‘Women’s intuition’ acknowledges only few and simply chooses to ignore the rest (for obvious reasons again!).
A very clever and, I must say, adequately astute man once said “It is by logic that we prove, but by intuition that a woman discovers." No need for further elaboration, I guess?
Coming back to the point, the question is how reliable is this intuition? Is it always right to give way to gut-feeling or when should we chose to ignore it? Well, being party to extremely strong intuitive powers myself it’s awfully difficult to answer this question. But what my intuition tells me is that …….
