Scientific proof: your GPS is a woman!

I, too, turn the map around when I'm figuring out which route to take. I'm told that this is a female trait, that males are better at doing something called "spatial rotation" in their heads.Whatever the reason, for just a moment, I was at one with a digital display.

Now I wonder how long it will be before the brains of all those males out there who are using GPS and playing video games (which also turn when one's "character" turns) get in touch with their feminine side?
