Say What? Things Men Don't Want to Hear About Themselves
By Laura Snyder
Generally speaking, we're pretty happy with you boys. But that doesn't mean there isn't room for improvement. There are some things you guys do that just drives us women crazy (and not in the good way). Are you guilty of any of these dirty truths?
You have no manners
The burping, the farting, the constant adjusting of your privates. It's great that you feel so comfortable with us, but you're grossing us out. Can't you keep your private habits a little more private?
You can be a total slob
Don't buy that crap about women not being as visual as men. You guys may look, but we inspect. We notice every dirty fingernail, every wheeze of your wicked bad breath and each hole in your ratty boxer shorts. Ick. Don't even get us started on the trail of dirty laundry you leave on your way to the shower or the empty milk carton in the fridge.
You have selective hearing
Where did you learn to tune us out so well? It's like your brain is programmed only to pick up certain keywords (like "sex" or "football") and disregard the rest. Maybe we should just start every sentence with, "I'd like a threesome..." Now take out the garbage.
You're unobservant
How you can notice when we substitute the fat-free ice cream for the real stuff, but not tell that we lightened our hair or lost a few pounds is beyond us. And why do you believe us when we say "nothing's wrong" when everything about our behavior says there is?
You treat us like your friends In a night out with the boys, you can get away with monopolizing the conversation, cracking wise and playing the macho man, but not with us. We don't want to be treated as your equal - we want to be treated a lot better than you!
ok cf guys, do you agree w/this or not??:wave
