In 1998, John and Ashley Sims created a two-way map of England. It had a standard view for people travelling north and an upside-down view for people travelling south. When men heard about it, they tended to laugh, thinking it was a joke. Women said: "What a great idea!"

A British newspaper offered 100 maps free. It received requests from 15,000 women - and a handful of men. Yes, we're different all right.

Interesting. But driving is not the same as flying, inasmuch as
situational awareness is not critical, nor need it be three-dimensional.
There is no need to match up the ground with the map in the same way
as in flying.

But that's besides the point. The sex difference is interesting.
