pet peeves

Are there any men out there that would like to list there pet peeves about the opposite sex?

I will start, this is in no particular order of importance

1. They constantly refer to books on how the male mind works when all they have to do is ask
2. They seek answers to questions that cant be explained fully to them or to their satisfaction
3. They spend absolute fortunes on makeup, anti ageing, anti wrinkle, anti baggie eye creams then use a alcohol cleanser to take it back off only to reapply more of the same gunk back on top.
4. We are always wrong and they are always right
5. They don’t know when to stop and leave you be

That will do for now, feel free to add to the list

How about
6. We don't "get" the Three Stooges.

(re: three stoges, I don't get them either.)

Ooh, I know another one:
Men can get in fights with each other, knock down, drag out, knock-the-wind-out-of-you, bruised, cut, loosen a tooth fights, and be best friends again half an hour later. Women don't do that. We file away every little thing that pissed us off to use as ammunition later.

Boy, this isn't going to be a very thorough survey if there's only one man giving his opinions.

Hmmm, on second thought, yes it will. You can say "It's a fact that 100% of the men surveyed agreed....."

oh i see where this going, within 3 posts you all have managed to change the subject, ever considered thats the reason no other man has posted?

i could be stereotypical and say we men never get a chance to get a word in edgeways, but i wont lol

to explain my last post so has not to confuse you, ever notice you first put a sterotypical veiw of a man to explain your ( female) perspective?

What about the women who don't even use this stuff? Personally I wouldn't know the first thing about using any of that junk. I figure soap is just as good as anything else.

And BTW, I do get the 3 Stooges!

(Does this mean I'm not a woman???? LOL)

My cleanser is alcohol free .......... I only drink the stuff!

Sabrina...lol, you made me laugh
Wi_figther.. i am with you on that one. plus i don't get fart jokes :

ok , i am back, bring it on, but be forwarned not to attempt to feminise this thread, or attempt to turn it into a male bashing area, my intention is clear, you has females have certain problems with us men, and our so called lack of communication skills, the simple answer is, explain it in a a way we can understand

sabrina, any normal man will know when he has gone to far and stop, even if it is to cut his losses

lex, you are telling me you have never used a product that you have seen on the tv or other advertising?

oh and again sabrina/in pain the alcohol in the wipes is 60 proof so dont be to happy

We do not! Well, at least I, and my friends don't. I can definately see where you are coming from, though!

my pet peeve about men is why do they feel the need to grab themselves and think its funny or cool to burp/fart?

Just trying to reel this back in.... the original post was supposed to be for men who want to voice their pet peeves about women... not the other way around...

lmo is right!!!

sorry ...had a brain fart! I will try not to let it happen again!

I sincerely apologize to Mellors!

Dubz

tis funny but at the same time disheartening that no other men have felt comfortable coming into this forum to add there say, i wounder why that is?

Ooo I am glad another woman "gets" the 3 stooges.... But then I watched that show as a kid and I thought it was funny.. but as an adult I am afraid I will turn the channel fast to a love movie or horror movie... lol

even tho this is supost to be pet peeves for men about women. .. So I thought I would ask a question for the men....
Why do men hate asking for directions?????

Why would I use something on my face or the rest of me that costs more than $3 when I can get double of something that cleans me just as well for $1 something and I get more of it?

Oh, I just don't understand why women use all that stuff they put on their face like...ya know what I don't even know what they're called!!!! I guess that stuff that's supposed to clean your face and it's on a little round pad??? (Not those things for acne) I guess I'll have to ask my little sis about all these things...she's the city girl, definitely not me!

I think the only fem thing I use is perfume, deodorant, and on a rare occasion a little make up. Beyond that I don't use anything!

Seeing as though I do know when to stop, I am not even going to bother going further with the first comment.

Did I say I used wipes? I'm still happy. Thanks.

Interesting how, when women are bashing and stereotyping men, it's okay, but when a man asks for men's peeves about women, the women who reply make it a joke, ask about more male stereotypes, and even seem to get a bit ticked about some of the comments made against them.

Mellors knows not all women fit the stereotypes. He's making a point. And doing it very well, I think.

I was accused of hijacking a thread. Isn't that what's going on here, then?

Sorry, Mellors, I'm another woman responding. I'm enjoying the thread, though.

I commented on one of the points Mellors made. That is not hijacking.

"but when a man asks for men's peeves about women" If only men were meant to respond, it should have been requested as such.

I have better things to do now.

It was requested as such:

Ok. I will be more careful to note things like that in the future. I will no longer participate on this thread.

Good luck!
