Why do women have a problem with understanding the abstract?

I told a girl onetime after she had been looking for her keys and found them on the table where they were in front of her the whole time, that those keys had been there the entire time and they were as plain as the nose on her face. She looked at my seriously and asked, "What does my nose have to do with my keys?" Thinking back I can think of literally hundreds of situations where this same thing has happened with hundreds of girls. In an attempt to understand women better, I'm just wondering why they seem to have trouble understanding the abstract. Hahaha! Read Nyla's answer! That's exactly what I'm talking about. She thinks I'm complaining because women loose stuff. The abstract concept here is the phrase I turned to point out that her keys were right in front of her the entire time, just like her nose was right in front of her the entire time. She, just like you didn't understand the abstract concept of that simile. It's not about her loosing her keys.

1. Dude that's not just women that's men too!!! We as people overreact so you'll just have to learn to live with it.
2. I think this girlfriend of yours needs to find herself a man who doesn't get caught up in things that are RIDICULES!!!!!!!!!!
3. I think you should start hanging around smart girls.
4. That is a SEXIST remark, it is also incorrect. I'm a woman, I scored way up in the upper 99 percentile in abstract reasoning ability, which makes it Highly likely that I,... a woman can reason YOU right under the table(to death)! Which by the way that has Nothing to do with sex! I also have several brothers and when they get upset about misplacing something important, the same thing happens to them, as that girl of yours sweetie! So you should really be more careful what you ASSUME(as in errors, not based on any facts-heresay) that way, you will stop making men look bad.
