    Seeing as just about all of the female divers that I know (personally) are explorers and have much better SAC rates/trim than a lot of the guys I have dived with, I would take it as a compliment. Just smile, say thanks, and totally ruin their day

    Well, another tactic women can respond with is the confusion tactic where when a guys says derisively to a woman: "You dive like a girl!" Give him a big hug and say: "That's so sweet of you!" and smile.

    Two dynamics happen here. The aggressor becomes confused, as what was an insult has been turned around into a compliment. Secondly, he received a hug, which energizes an entirely unanticipated physiological response to the scenario.

    The aggressor now becomes the outwitted victim, not knowing if he should try to re-turn it back around again, or put some more thought into that hug....

    It is just too many tasks using too much of the neural network simultaneously for a guy to process, causing either the program to get hung up or the network to entirely shutdown.
