Rationalization Hamster - The tendency for women to use rationalization to resolve mental conflict and avoid cognitive dissonance. The core mechanism that allows women to say one thing and do a different thing.
Is it something you recognise in yourself from time to time? Do you see it in other women? To me this phenomenon is not necessarily exclusive to women, once you start to reflect on yourself and question your own belief system to clear yourself of cognitive dissonance, you slowly start to see it everywhere.
