Are we argumentative? Now, why would ANYBODY think that!!?

Is the Pope German?

In addition to the reasons articulated upstream, it also may have something to do with narcissism . So perhaps it is our nature to be less deferential.

And another observation—somewhat tangential. I’ve noticed that ADDers can have problems with certain standardized exams, because they find problems, often subtle ones, with ALL of the multiple-choice answers. What these kids do—in effect— is find themselves arguing, sotto voce, with the team that wrote the exam.
