本期话题:男生,女生哪一个更会说谎?



The jury is still out as to whether human quirks like lying are the result of genes, evolution or upbringing. Men are far more likely to tell lies than women, researchers have revealed. Their study found that the average male tells 1,092 lies every year - roughly three a day. By contrast, the average woman will lie 728 times a year - around twice a day. And while men said their lies were most likely to relate to their drinking habits, the most popular female fib - 'Nothing's wrong, I'm fine' - hides their true feelings. While 82 per cent of females questioned said telling a lie ate away at their conscience, only 70 per cent of men confessed to pangs of guilt.

关于撒谎等人类习性是与基因还是进化抑或是后天教育有关,目前还没有定论。研究者们发现,男人比女人更爱“谎话连篇”。研究表明,男性平均每年撒谎1092次,每天约3次。而女性平均每年撒谎728次,约合一天2次。同时,男性们表示自己的谎言大多和酗酒习惯有关。而女性们最爱说的谎话则是“没什么,我很好。”。她们以此来隐藏自己的真实情感。82%的受访女性表示说谎会使自己的良心备受煎熬,而只有70%的男性承认撒谎时会有负罪感。

Who are far more likely to tell lies in life, men or women?
谁更爱撒谎呢,男人还是女人?

Which is the top fibs told by others?

Maybe it is according to  truth:when ,where,why. if you aren't a bad person, your lie usually is a kind lie.

Everybody would tell lies in daily life, no matter he or she is deliberate or not. I don't think that there is a difference between male and female. In my opinion, the most important study of lies is why people tell these; others are only paddling. Regard to which is the top fibs, I agree with the 3# that people tend to tell lies to prevent someone who care us from worrying especially us Chinese younger generation.

In my opinion,there is no different between man and woman .
People often tell kind lies to make those who care about them far away from worrying.
There have one kind of lies that I really hate,such as"I Love you".
