MEN are better at seeing things in the distance due to their hunter-gatherer past chasing animals, while women are better focusing on things at close range, a British study said.
In findings which reflect how men's and women's brains have evolved differently over thousands of years, they found that men are better at judging faraway targets.

Researchers tested their theory by asking a group of 48 men and women to use a laser pointer to mark the midpoint of lines on a piece of paper at different distances.

Men were more accurate than women when the paper was placed at a distance of 100 centimetres, while women were more accurate when the target was only 50 centimetres away, within arm's reach.

"Evidence already exists that separate pathways in the brain process visual information from near and far space,'' said psychologist Helen Stancey from Hammersmith and West London College.

MANY dogs are happy enough to be man's best friend, but those in need of a bit more "companionship" can now get their own sex doll.
The Doggie Lover Doll, made by PetSmiling, was unveiled at a pet industry convention in Brazil last week.
The company describes the product as: "A female canine manufactured in soft rubber with a silicon vagina and an easy to clean reservoir."
Its creator, PetSmiling owner Marcos Giroto, said he came up with the idea after noticing his own dog’s frustration.
