If men do it, none of them have ever done so while in front of me in a checkout line. Any delays while waiting behind a guy were cashier- rather than customer-driven.
I think our gender is more goal-oriented when making purchases. Also, no purses to lose things in.
At the risk of being labelled a slug-eating he-man, as a rule, men don't chat while shopping.
Because they're too busy eating slugs?

They do with the pretty cashiers at the Whole Foods!
My problem with Other People shopping is people who go to the self checkout who really shouldn't be allowed to check themselves out.

Someone has to.

Oh yeeeeeah. You may have won this round, but I'll be back after I eat a few slugs to get my strength up.

That. I'll bet that's a huge component.

The only time I've been stuck behind someone flirting in a checkout line, the flirter was a girl who may not have noticed the cashier's wedding ring or realized he was married. Though admittedly, in my area of the country pretty women likely to be flirted with don't seem to choose retail jobs where lines of customers are the norm.
I'm reading The Equation that Couldn't Be Solved. It's great, except when the author tries to spice things up a little. It's like a really smart guy who tells lame jokes. You want to say, "You don't have to try so hard! I was interested!" Plus he keeps writing things like, "This was to foreshadow the further tragedy to come," and like, I know the guys die depressing deaths, but you don't need to make it even grimmer!

My sistah! I have actually gone up to people and DONE IT for them , because they were all "Oh, dear, how does...hmm....do i...nope, let's try to..." and I am standing there with some soy sauce and cat food, and frothing with impatience.
I have seen someone slide a $20 through the debit card slidey-thing. AT that point I just walked away to the express lane.
