    Jealousy. It's a deal breaker.
    When you're being polite and they read it as flirting.
    Not cleaning up after themselves. General laziness.
    They eat more take out than home cooked meals. I understand the convenience but sometimes it's nice to have a nice home cooked meal. Gotta know how to cook.
    Their idea of waking up early is waking up at 1pm. Unless you work nights, no.
    Constant mention of money. I don't care. I make my own. I sustain my lifestyle.
    Lack of manners.


    He can talk about his money. Especially if he intends to share it. His money is my money and my money is my money. Sounds fair.

    Don't cook? No problem I do. Plus, you got so much money, we can have a service take care of that.

    hashtag all my bills paid is the minimum entry fee :D:D:D:D:D:D:D

    Seriously do not understand the hookup culture at all...

    who says I'm trying to hook up? these are just my gender specific peeves generated by my past experiences.

    I didn't. That's just where my mind went as I typed.

    I don't understand this idea that men have that they spend X amount on drinks or dinners and they think that entitles them to something other than your company while you are dining with them.

    There was a comment about ‘macho’..... my peeve is women who don’t understand a man sometimes has to be a man. No one should WANT to fight. But if you must, you need to know how.

    There's a difference though between defending yourself or protecting somebody vs those loud mouth guys who just wanna start sht for the sake of starting sht, just to throw punches or belittle somebody.

    Absolutely!!! I raised two boys. If they would be the ones starting fights, I’d be very disappointed.

    In the real world, defending yourself is a true skill.

    IMO, the emasculation of men is not a good thing.

    If that’s not PC... sorry, not sorry.

    Would you care to give a few examples of how men are being emasculated? I'm interested to see what exactly you mean.

    So, if I don’t give examples, my opinion is invalid?

    It’s my opinion. IMO, boys can’t be boys anymore.

    Can you give examples that men are not being emasculated?


    You suggested that men were being emasculated and that it was having a detrimental effect on male development. I simply asked for some examples. Surely you can cite a few, if this is so prevalent that it is changing human development for the worse.

    He's refusing to give examples, so my interpretation is that boys can't be boys anymore means that physical violence is discouraged as is sexual harrassment.

    He did seem pretty proud of the fact that his grandpa was a Nazi so...who can tell why he thinks what he does?

    Very nice. Immediately called grandson of a nazi.

    Low brow attack.

    Violence against women is abhorrent. Sexual harassment is wrong.

    You’re really nice.

    Dude, you posted the meme, not me.

    What is happening right now? Am I witnessing an internet standoff?

    On this thread I will build my church.

    Do you have building permits?

    My pet peeve is when men use the incorrect response gif.

    I stealing this.

    not the gif; I'm stealing the idea and the note.

    Ughhh...when women won't even acknowledge PMS time

    My theory is men have hormonal cycles too. So you admit you are on yours and I'll admit im on mine.

    my hormonal cycles are like:

    Chest Day
    Shoulder Day
    Leg Day

    ...... more like 'head-case day'.


    which only occurs on days that end with the letter "y"/

    Oh boy, sometimes women have to tiptoe around this question with other women too. I've learned to respond with something like "if it draped a little differently or was shorter/longer". I learned to shift the question to " is this complimentary to my body".
    I've got to the point now where I'll give a simple yes or no :)

    You're very brave my friend
    Or stupid. Who cares ha

    This. With anyone drives me crazy. Or when people constantly ask questions that we both know that they know the answer to, just to ask a question.
