What exactly was the problem?

It never ceases to amaze me. The difference in communication between men and women. Me: "did you have problems with hotmail and msn today?". Him: "yes". A woman would automatically have shared what the particular problem was but a man needs a specific question such as "I had problems with hotmail and msn today. If you had too, can you please describe the problem you had". I think there should be a subject in school for youngsters to learn how to communicate!
