Tell us something we don't know
Of course, neither your wife nor the esteemed reporter (whose name and therefore gender is unavailable to us) appreciate this basic point: asking for directions costs points. Asking directions from another man means that you surrender points to him. Most of us don't have that many points to spare, ladies. As, I am sure, many of you point out in your own way, from time to time.

I'm quite willing to ask directions.
I'm less willing to ask directions from a woman - every time I've done so they sent me the wrong way.
I've also stopped to ask directions when my wife insisted, only to be told (by the guy)that we were indeed on the correct road going the correct direction, and we were!
I think it's all a mind game gals like to play on guys :)

As my father likes to say, "I have no opinion on this subject" :)

I have never been lost.
I don't need to know exactly where something is.
I just need to be within a thousand square miles of it to find it.

If she's like most women, it's b/c she's yakking at you while you're trying to do land-nav, the way I do at my spousal unit, CP :)
I catch myself doing that all the time and I hate it. I can multitask while I'm driving but I can also see where it's annoying to him, so I try to stop myself before I go there.
I don't always succeed.
