Things you don't get about your gender

Women who treat their husbands or significant others like children. My husband has several friend's who "aren't allowed" (their words, not mine) to play video games/go to fight nights etc.
He made a friend through work and we went out with the friend and his wife a few times, but she was so controlling of him that we couldn't stand hanging out with them. Especially since she seemed to think that I should be ordering my husband around like she was hers.
That was a fairly extreme example, but I see lesser examples of the same attitude all the time. I married a grown man who can think and make decisions for himself. I expect him to treat me s a equal and respect my opinions, I owe him the same.
Totally agree with you, and I would include in that kind of behavior telling your husband that he's not allowed to look at other women (staring is one thing, looking is human nature), not allowed to go places where there may be attractive women, etc. I would say that I pity men who are stuck with women like that, but I don't; if they had any balls at all, they'd straighten the situation out. But some men seem to be deathly afraid of their wives. Doesn't make sense to me. I would not want to be married to a man who allowed me to lead him around by the nose like that.0 -
That toughness can be bought. A Harley, leather chaps, tattoos, a hummer, and talking loudly doesn't make you tough. It makes you a douche. Now get back to work at the office, poser.
dont know who that was geared toward, but that sounds like something someone said hit a nerve about being a real man?
guess you dont like your housewife duties currently, no?
Oh, I've had several older people mention that in a negative light. It's hilarious. If I want to take care of kids and drive around in a minivan wearing a pink dress, it doesn't erase what I've done in life. But I was more poking at the general attitude of AMerican men that buy into that macho BS.
we're young and full of cum... :P
unfortunately my balls sometimes outreason my brain0 -
i don't get why women get those fuzzy, slightly out of focus modelling photos taken. i mean, i know why they do it (to feel good and stuff) but i don't get why they buy the giant 64 inch canvas and then put it on their lounge wall. seems kind of wierd to me that you'd want to sit there and look at your own giant fuzzy head all day.
i hate the jealous women thing- let your hubby go to a strip club and look at naked ladies jumping up on a pole! he sure as *kitten* isn't going to see that at home. let him watch porn if it makes him happy- why do you care so much?
and i hate shopping. HATE it. never understood how it can make some women so happy. and high heeled shoes- how can they be comfortable? or thongs? they go up your crack! how can that be a good thing?0 -

LMAO. that's probably the best thing i've read all day. So completely true for most guys i know. thanks for admitting it0 -
I've not seen this. Are they swinging their own, each others, or from each others?
Spoken like a true Beta male haha just kidding....... I'm refering to the guys that have to be right about everything sports,politics,religion or anything else being talked about in their presence.
LOL oh that would be all the red neck, white trash, pseudo logical, misanthropic chest thumping that goes on whenever we throw a party for the crew that includes alcohol . Amusing but not threatening as my name is on their paychecks. Alpha is as alpha does.0 -

Actually, it's often not the young guys who are the worst offenders. As you get older, you start to realize that all the dudes who are the loudest are often the most chicken. They feel bad about all the crap they chickened out of when they were younger and now feel the psychological need to make everyone think they are tough guys. Case in point, Rush Limbaugh and Bill O'Reilly. Loud as hell, huge supporters of the military and american warfare. Also each dodged the draft with multiple deferments.0 -

alphas, typically out-represent other males in wallstreet and most high-earning positions. not to mention positions of power -
i dont think we disagree here0 -

Called thinking with the little head instead of the big one.0 -
Interesting. I was talking to a friend of mine the other day. Ben. Big guy. 6' 7". About 350. The subject of the "Alpha Male" came up.
Ben: "Not sure I'm following you."
Me: "You know when two groups of guys are approaching each other?"
Ben: "Yeah."
Me: "There's always one guy in one group that will acknowledge one guy in the other group. Head nod. Something."
Ben: "Yeah?"
Me: "Those are the Alpha Males from each group."
Ben: "Yeah?"
Me: "There's always one guy in every group that is the Alpha Male."
Ben: "I never noticed that."
Me: "Exactly."0 -

i agree. size has nothing to do with it - in fact throughout history, some of the smallest guys have had the biggest balls - look at napoleon.
its called the little man complex
or in psychobabble, 'inferiority complex'0 -
I don't understand why some girls pretend to be dumb because they think it's cute. >:(
Or shaving off your eyebrows just to pencil them back on

I don't get why we think its funny to put sewing needles in tampons when we go over to other people's houses.
whoa, wtf?!0 -

along the same lines, using sex as a weapon. If he's not getting any, neither am I... and how is that any good?
I never got that either. Why punish me too?0 -
I would have to say the way some girls think men "should" support them with money! (Only knowing him 3 weeks)0
-
Why they don't understand that it's not nice guys that finish last...but weak men.0

women who make someone else responsible for their happiness. That is too much pressure for someone to have to live up to. I take responsibility for my happiness, it is not someone else's job!
Love this!!!0 -
-Women who take duck face pictures. Just fyi, you look s-t-u-p-i-d, not cute, but stupid and like you have some mental issues.
Duck face pic= LMAO at work, It took a while till I got duck face... I have a friend that does this-I think understand. Just smile it looks natural0 -
Women who call themselves "friends", but won't do anything to inconvenience THEMSELVES. You always have to go see THEM, invite THEM out to lunch, call THEM, text THEM.......... one way street.
Oh my EX BFF is like this BUT she would call me at work 15 times a days to see what I was doing?0 -
