The serial / parallel thing tends to be a male/female brain wiring
limitation rather then a dyslexic one. Most men (80%) are poor at
multitasking down to the way we have highly compartmentalised brains
that have areas dedicated to particular tasks, where women tend to use
multiple parts of the brain to work on the same problems. (hence why men
have a harder time recovering from stokes).

Has this got anything to do with the fact a that a woman will park her
shopping trolley at the narrowest and busiest part of a supermarket? (No
idea of special awareness). Usually at just the spot that you want to
pass them and there is only a pallet that can't move that will let you pass.
Another non multitask situation is at the checkout. They are slow to
pack their bags and even slower to get their purse out and pay. To be
followed by the packing of most of the goods that have been scanned and
the putting away of their debit card/check book. :-(

Enter Mary to defend this. ;-)

As to the fact that they can multitask, watch them when their mobile
phone rings. They cannot even walk when this happens. It stops them in
their tracks :-)
While they are using a phone, they cannot even input any data from
someone stood alongside them :-(
