How are Women and Quantum Physics alike?

As much as we try, men may never fully comprehend the two. 

For many years some of the best and brightest have tried to wrap their mind around the quantum realm. No lesser of men have probably spent even longer trying to understand women. 

We make observations, postulate a hypothesis, put on our lab coats, strap on our safety googles, pull out our clipboards, conduct experiments, record our findings, adjust our ideas, formulate our arguments, try again, again, and again only to walk away realizing that perhaps any attempt to apply our logic is simply a vain attempt to impose our understanding of the world, on a different world altogether.

I see man's approach not unlike Eistein's theory of general relativity. It's logical. It seems straight forward. And in many ways, it offers an explanation for why the universe operates the way it does. It's a theory that works well at a macro level. We can predict the location of celestial bodies years in advance and if our hypothesis turns out wrong, we can usually find explanation for that too. We can anticipate how a beam of light might bend when passing through the gravitational force field of a massive object, millions and millions of miles away. We can conduct the most delicate of experiments that yields an outcome that match the results we had anticipated with a certain level of accuracy and satisfaction. A logical path exists. There is a causality. An explanation. It seems rational. Some may even consider it elegant.

That is, until we observe how the universe operates at a microscopic level. 

It turns out the universe that we inhabit, when scrutinized at subatomic levels, is nothing more than a bat-shit-crazy, illogical realm that does not follow any conventional law from the world as we know it. 

Particles jump from place to place, darting in out of existence and adhere to no agenda conceivable by man. Scientist have repeatedly tried to fuse the models of of general relativity with quantum mechanics only to walk away having failed miserably; not unlike a man trying to rationalize a woman's emotion through logic. 

The only thing that we fully understand about the quantum realm is that the principles of general relativity do not apply. And there is volumes of empirical evidence to support that. No matter how much we try to infuse the logical constructs that our world has conditioned us with,  in the quantum realm, they do not apply. 

It would appear at times, a woman's state of emotion is resistant to a man's logic, just as quantum theory is resistant to general relativity. Perhaps before we can unite the two under a cohesive framework, it's best not to try and force the principles of one model onto the other. But rather we accept each pillar independently for what it is and continue to seek for the harmony that has undoubtedly existed between the two for many, many millennia. Even if we never fully understand it.
