Thought this might be funny biggrin.gif If a moderator finds it not or their is another thread like this (i looked) please feel free to lock this. i promise i wont be offended wink.gif

So here we go... What things that the opposite gender does drives you bonkers?

Girls, this is your chance to rip on the fact that guys fart in public and laugh about it! dry.gif

Guys, how about the fact that it takes some of us to freakin long to get ready mad.gif

Just post your thougts, get out some of your frustrations, and have a jolly good time!
Beethoven
For the record: I am a guy.

I never fart in public. That is completely vile, and I can't believe people actually do it.

The only thing I don't like about girls is the fact that a lot of them seem to think that they need 10 pounds of make-up and about half a pound of fabric covering their bodies. biggrin.gif
keepstar1331
ok..you might not fart, but i know tons of guy who do! lol.

The reason some girls wear tons of makeup and barely any clothes is because for the most part thats what gets guys attention!

The thing that bothers me most about guys is how they act macho around their guy friends. And most of the time they dont even know it. Like when my boyfriend won't tell me he loves me because he's around his friends! i think thats silly
kool kat
Even though I'm a girl, the makeup-clothes thing annoys me. I don't wear makeup (much) and prefer a sweater and comfortable pants. What annoys me about some guys is...some don't show their inner emotions
Krieltje
What annoys me about guys is that they don't show their emotions and when it comes to emotions they are so stubborn. And of course the fact that they act diferent when they're around their friends. ( come on guys, show that soft side, your friends can learn from it) tongue.gif

Well my boyfriend just recently got into a quading accident and he's at home now so I'm over there lots trying to help him out but everytime I ask if he wants help he says no. He's trying to be so independent (he still can't do much) and so tough and it's really starting to annoy me!
Feeder
I am a guy, and I don't fart in public either.

But what annoys me about girls is how upsessed they seem to be with gossip and rumors. It seems like it's all they care about.
Allie
Ah, no fair, not all girls are into gossip and social lives, Feeder! Then again, I suppose this is your basic stereotype thread... tongue.gif

Even though I am a girl, the clothing thing (i.e. girls wearing too little of it) bothers me as well. Also, I never understand why all the girls at my school go to the toilet in pairs. Are they worried that they're going to fall in, or something? laugh.gif

As for guys ... hmm ... I don't know if this qualifies for any of you here on VTM (wink.gif), but in my 'real life' experience, girls have been much more understanding about my HP obsession than guys. Beats me why! rolleyes.gif tongue.gif
Feeder
Sorry Anthony, but that's just how it is in my experience. No offense meant though.

I also have noticed the whole, going to the bathroom in pairs thing as well.
keepstar1331
Allie i agree with you, girls (not on this thread) not boys understand my obsession. This could be because of the hot guys in the movie i.e. Sean Biggerstaff, Tom Felton, and all the others.

I admitt i'm one of those stereotypical girls! Not the the extreme of some but if im at a party or out clubbing i might dress a little scandelous. As for gossiping...its something to do at school. Not all gossiip is mean, most is just getting up to terms and whats going on with friends.

But back to guys, how come they are so obsessed with cars? well most of them anyways
TheSpecialist
gosh what really annoys me of guys is that when it's just you and him his all sweet and stuff doing whatever you want. But when it's you and him and his friends he tries to act all manly and tells you to go and fetch him a drink and tries to make him seem to his friends that he has all control over you.
But not all guys are like but half the ones I dated are like that.

Albus-wan
I've noticed that both guys and girls have been bothered by the obsession many girls seem to have with clothes and makeup, and I'd like to hazard a guess as to why. Girls mostly aren't dressing up to get guys' attention (though I'm sure that's part of it), girls dress up to try to keep up with or outdo other girls. Guys, for the most part, won't remember any of the outfits you girls wore last week, but girls will--and they know it.

One thing that bothers me about girls is that they sometimes have unreasonable expectations for their guys. It's been said "When a man marries a woman, he thinks she won't change, but she does. When a woman marries a man, she thinks he will change, but he doesn't." If women learned to love men as they are, then each change for the better would be a happy surprise. Instead, each moment a man doesn't change is another opportunity for a woman to be disappointed. Of course, if women didn't have these unreasonable expectations, then marriage wouldn't be the quickest road to perfection that it is.

Another relationship problem is rooted in the seeming expectation women have that men should be able to know how they feel and what they want--if the man loves her, that is. Unfortunately, most of us will be muggles our whole lives, so we will never have any chance to learn legilimency. Both men and women need to learn to explain more clearly than they think is necessary exactly what it is they want, what are expecting, or exactly how they are feeling. The only reason I list it as a complaint about women is because men seem to get into trouble because of this inability to read minds.

That said, the women in my life are the most self-sacrificing, hardest working, and devoted people I know, and I would be less than nothing without them. Like I said, marriage is the quickest road to perfection.

*smiles* Lucky for me I think I have more control over my guy than he has over me!

And I also HATE the bathroom thing! Whenever I have to go to the bathroom my friends always ask if I want them to come with me and I always say very sarcastically "Oh yes I would love it if you'd came we could make a party out of it!"
reallifewitch
Really, NOT all girls are into gossip. I hate it when people talk about others behind their backs and I´m not in the least interested in gossip!

Also guys, girls do get a lot more attention when they`re dressed sexy-and you do like it, confess it!

About guys: why do they have to be so sloppy?! My roommate is the sloppiest, laziest person I`ve ever met, and so is brother, my best friends brother....it might not be all of them, but many are. Really how can they live in a dirty, distgusting environment?

ok i get this all the time...grrr...

I'll be playing football or basketball with my guy friends and we'll se playing shirts and skins. And some guy always has to say my team shoud be skins! Drives me nuts, everytime....

One of these days im going to do it.... Naked Quidditch match style laugh.gif
Jordan94
Well i never Fart or Burp in Public, its disgusting. I know that and i'm only an 11 Year old boy. And yes, some girls either wear way too many clothes or nowhere near enough. Like, i was at a friends Borthday Part yesterday and it was really cold, yet some girls still had the cheek to wear skirts that come like, an Inch below their Backsides! They were freezing in the end and were all begging to borrow my cardigan. laugh.gif

I let my emotions out most of the time. Even around all my Guy friends i'm still willing to hug all my female friends (No none of them are my Girlfriend BTW, but everyone thinks so. dry.gif )

But other boys pretend they are total Robots sometimes. One boy i know had the cheek to say he had NEVER seen a girl who looked moderatley nice! I was disgusted.

Thats my £0.02 then!

Anglophile92
well being a teenager (for a few months)
i've notice hat the girls are mature physically and mentally
however it's a different story for the guys
dudes listen up!
in my classes all the guys are royal pains and very immature...
that's what annoys me the most about guys..
.
being a girl yeah i like to wear make-up and stuff but i do NOT wear too much make-up, nor do i wear little clothes....those girls tend to be the preppy type...

as for me...i'm a jeans and a shirt (jacket as well) kinda girl. I'm well covered...but guys you need to start being mature!
(not all guys are immature By the way, just those who are)

well that's my 2 cents... biggrin.gif
slytherinlvr
I agree with you Anglophile92. Most of the guys at my school also are royal pains and a bit immature. I would say that about 5% of the guys in my year are actually mature. the other 95% are all immature. That is like the only thing that annoys me.
Lynn
Pffff...
it just drives me nuts that there's just one guy in my year who is cute and sweet and shy and insecure and totally hot, and he's the boyfriend of a friend of mine..
boys in my class are OK I guess... they dont fart or burp or anything and theyre pretty handsome. they arent as noisy as most boys of their age.
Ginevra
Ugghh...I hate how boys always seem so obsessed with cars. It's so very annoying when a guy brings a car catalogue to school and all of his friends and him are going through it.

I am also annoyed by the lots-of-makeup, little clothes thing, even though I am a girl. However I do like listening to gossip, but I don't spread it or believe it.
sloppyjoe
Haaa haaa, farting in public, funny stuff. I never fart when around girls though just mates. What i find annoying about ggirls is that all of them are good dancers so it makes guys look bad. Also i hate it when girls wear tons of makeup.
zelda_snape
Okay, I'm a girl but I don't understand us!!!!!

Why in the world do we (after a guy breaks up with us) get so depressed and spend weeks, even months, crying when we're only waisting our time? They could be spending that time figuring out what they want in life, not "I'm so lonely I wish I could die!" and all that. I had a boyfriend, who broke up with me, and I didn't even cry! (And this is the guy I had my first kiss with)

Another thing, I don't understand why we fight over guys and become rude to other girls when we find out they like the same guys we do. It's crazy!!!


Yours truly,

Aethonon
Hey Zelda? Do you think it might be because for girls, it's emphasized so much more that we should be in a relationship--that a guy has to 'want us' for us to matter?

I'm an ol' lady by VTM standards, but it still happens in my age group! I have a friend who isn't happy in her marriage, but stays married because she's afraid 'no one else will want her!' Unreal!

I'm single, I have fun hanging out with my son and just being me, and this friend--the one who is unhappily married and such, always has to ask me if I've 'met someone yet.' No, I haven't 'met' anyone, because I don't care! I'm enjoying just hanging out with me. lol But most girls just don't get it, I think. And it starts young.

I dunno...for me, it's guys that expect so much giving and give very little back emotionally. They expect girls to be the nurturers and always supportive of them and their endeavours, but too often, it's all about them. When you really need them, they're too busy. I dunno if that really suits this topic, but how about this?

You go out with a guy and in the beginning he's all nice and looks nice and smells nice--then when he thinks he's "got" you, he turns into a slob! Yech!
NyMpHaDoRa
I am a girl for anyone on VTM that doesnt know me.

I dont like that when girls are crying, boys act like crying is a very unusual thing, and that they get really embarrassed if someone is crying.

I hate that guys can be so perverted sometimes. In school, this one group of guys is always talking about girls, and their anatomy, and other things like that, and somethings that i have no idea how they know about.

I hate that guys can be so insensitive.

i have to remember that not all guys are like that, and some guys are really sweet.
......angie.......
phoebe lovegood
as a saying goes men are from mars and women are from venus so we girls sometimes hate some disgusting things about guys but what can we do with these .........we love them the way they are but i really hate it when they get to stubborn and they wont listen even if were correct............most of the times
secretkeeper
One thing that I don't like about girls is that if you go out to eat and a guy asks a girl where she wants to go and she says something like 'I don't care' and then the guy has to pick. And then sometimes, when you finally pick somewhere, they didn't want to go there anyways.

I agree with all of the make-up stuff on girls. If you need tons of make-up to look good, then there might be a problem. Real beauty is much better than putting on a fake image.

I have to agree with you on this one....I hate it!!!! When at one point they are really cute and you are having a civilized conversation with them and then when he is with his friends he is a huge prat, I am like what’s the point....who care if you friends think you are a great person, you will get more girls if you’re a sweetie.

And another thing that annoys me about guys is that they can't spill out there emotions and they can be so confusing!!! Just tell me what you’re thinking....grrr why guys have to be soo confusing lol

The one thing that I hate about girls is that they judge you before they even know you. They will talk nasty thing behind your back....this could be the way you look, dress, ect....I think slagging me off won't make you any prettier. Because that why girls do has horrible things to other girls because they are just jalousie!

So if that ever happened to you...just remember they are just jalousie of you!


Thats my rant of the day lol laugh.gif

well i hate it when lads say that girls worry far to much about what they look like and then you see them worring about their hair or something so stupid.. laugh.gif well actually that is quite funny. knowing a couple of lads i do...biggrin.gif
Also i hate a lads EGO...oh my god what is the point of that.
*dementor*
Heya,
Firstly, I am a girl so dont mistake me for anything else!
Secondly, I Dont wear any make-up because whats the point of that...and i dont get why nearly every single celebrity has done plastic surgery! I mean, you cant tell who's face is really their face or who is just had a plastic surgery. Gosh..and everyone falls for them and says their soo pretty when they either have had a plastic surgey or they have 100tons of foundation and all that stuff. I really hate that about girls. Thankfully, i have the decency to wear enough clothes but that doesnt mean that i go to the extent of wearing 3 jumpers and a scarf and double socks in the middle of a hot summer..(and i odnt in Winter either) All the same I think Us Girls are MUCH better than Boys..stupid.gif << i've never seen that emotion before!!
What i hate about Boys though, is that they try to act so cool and all that and whoever falls for them then they show their true face!

Thankyou,

oh.. definitely guys' egos! haha!~ =] and sometimes, they NEVER EVER admit defeat.. one of my mates actually referred to losing as second-place victory.. also, another mate was full trying to show-off and it was hilarious because he tripped. haha.. he said he did it on purpose.. LOL yeah right.. we've heard that before.. =]

fragglecomegomibayas

What really gets on my nerves about boys (I'm a girl and loving it) is that sometimes to draw you nearer, they act like they don't care about you, some of my male friends have told me that if they find out a girl likes them and they like her back they sometimes play hard to get so she'd be the one to look for him, call him and that stuff.

I had been through that once and when my friends tried to comfort me they told me this; i got soooo mad, that I immediatly stopped liking that boy and when he tried to look for me I behaved like a total jerk, I know maybe that wasn't the right answer but I was kind of hurt you know? Why would he want to put me through that? Maybe I over reacted or acted immature but I really didn't care at the time.

Some months later in a party, in a game (truth or dare u know, that kind of stuff) he was asked if he had ever liked me (they asked him just to annoy me because they knew i was a bit touchy on that subject) and he said yes but that I didn't liked him back! so he had let it go (I guess he didn't like me enough, oh well)

I know we musn't rush into things but those silly back and forth games are complete nonsense to me.
Everseer
I hate the fact that the girls are always surrounded by their friends...

Occasionally, okay; but they're always... ¬¬ When you want to talk specificly with one, you can't (well, if you want to say specific things... tongue.gif

I'm a boy, and I swear I never fart in public..

I hate they need plenty of time to get dressed and put their make-up, when they really look very good by themselves...

The make-up is good, but exagerately hides the real beauty of a girl, and I really mean it...

What surprises me (I don't hate it, but drives me mad, as the topic says) is the suddenly changes of emotions they can have... 5 minutes they are completely angry or sad, and in the following 5 they're the happiest persons in the world... Strange, but nice...

Ever~
mjane95

Trust me Ever~ our moodswings are very normal for some of us. What annoys me about some boys is the always smirk and snigger when something is said. Now imagine multiplyling that if I told one of boys I liked him he would go eww and then smirk and snigger with his mates. this really pushes my buttons.

Ah, girls will be girls, and boys will be boys. Why should they act any different?
1)If a boy started showing his "soft,emotional,feminine" side, he wouldn't be a boy, just a female with xy chromosomes.
2) If a woman was all tough and manly, I don't know about you,but I wouldn't want to be within miles of her.
Why? You may call them "stereotypes", but truth is, boys and girl's wiring is different. And a reversal of wiring, is imho, sad,bad,mad! Tell me, you girls who act tough,(or are tough, whichever way you like to think of it), is this attitude just a reaction to society that expects you to behave one way? Think it over.
And , just don't take offence at my words(I have a creepy feeling you might) unsure.gif
felix_felicis_444
hehe...NewDarkLord, your post made me laugh.

I cannot agree with it fully, though. There is an extent to which boys and girls go to that can be -- err -- reduced to accomodate everybody. Like the fact that girls travel in little groups or cliques. Like, when I want to walk with my girlfriend alone, I have to pry her friends away. I also hate how some girls think that guys like it when they act dumb. I find it very annoying, actually. For example, when you are trying to actually learn a thing or two in class (I know, a rare occurance, but I happens laugh.gif ), and the girl sitting next to you starts to whine about how she does not understand what the teacher is saying, just to get some laughs and attention. If you do not understand the work, go up to th teacher afterwards and ask them to explain it another time! wink.gif

One thing that I do notice about guys, and just note that I am a guy myself, is that many of them tend to act differently around girls or their girlfriends. One of my friends is really nice around me and my friends, but when he walks over to a group of girls, he tries to act like a hot shot. I tell him to act normally, but he doesn't rolleyes.gif ....what can you do!?

Gawd, things haven't changed much since when I was a kid, have they, daviD? laugh.gif

OK, I have to ask this, all right? Because I feel I may have been doing this wrong my whole life...

Guys...can girls be too accomodating? Too nice? Do you like it when they are high maintenance, or not? I have always tried to be a nice wife or girlfriend, and the guys I've been with have been, well, jerks!

Is it better to not 'give' so much to a guy? Does it bore you?

I'm serious! I'm 44 and I still can't figure this out. wacko.gif
felix_felicis_444
hehehe...Darcy, I guess some things haven't changed, huh?

I personally think that there are some girls that are just so nice that its a little bit...scary. I guess that it is just some peoples' personalities, though, becuase I know some boys who are like that, too. This one friend of mine is really nice, but she is a little bit too nice. So nice that you do not even know what to say when you see her, so you just smile. laugh.gif

I think girls should just act like themselves. Some girls are nice, some girls are rude, and some girls are right inbetween. Somebody is bound to like you for who you are, not what you are trying to be. So if you are yourself, you won't have to act your whole life. huh.gif

My girlfriend is nice, but she does not let anybody walk right over her, which is why I like her smile.gif . She will go out of her way to accomodate somebody close to her, but she will stand her ground all the same. So, basically, just be yourself! wacko.gif

High-maintenance.....urrrm, no thank you! I mean, if a girl likes attention, then a guy will give it to her up to a certain point. Guys, and probably girls too, have limits that do not like to be touched wink.gif ...But some guys like high-maintenence girls, I guess.

Or alternatively, there are some guys who are perfectly nice and sensitive with their female friends, but then when their male friends come along, they start showing off and trying to act cool and sophisticated for them. rolleyes.gif Honestly, I don't know why teenage girls get all the credit for being obsessed with popularity and trying to climb the social ladder! tongue.gif For reasons that I don't understand, guys always seem to feel the need to prove themselves to other guys in their social life, sports, and just about every other realm. They also get very easily distracted by flying objects. You could be deeply involved in a conversation with a guy, but as soon as he sees a football or a baseball or a frisbee, he has to go play with it immediately (not that this has ever happened to myself or my fifteen-year-old sister before). I just don't get it! blink.gif

I would agree with you, David, about the self-deprecating girls (even though I'm obviously female myself). It always seems to be the girls who shriek endlessly about "I'm too stupid for calculus!!" and "I don't get it!!!" etc., and it drives me up the wall. Do they think that males find females who aren't as intelligent as they are particularly attractive or something? First of all, while I'm sure there are men out there who want to feel that they're the "smarter" one in the relationship, I find it difficult to believe that they're all like that. Secondly, I don't think any guy who doesn't respect my interest in school is worth my while -- and how sexist would the girl in question have to be to take the opposite stance?! Another thing that I don't get about girls is why they always go to the bathroom in pairs. If one of my friends has to go to the bathroom and I don't, I wait for them in the hall or something. Isn't it sort of awkward to stand there waiting for someone to take a pee? I would think it would be too much pressure. tongue.gif

Oh, WOW! That is one of my biggest pet-peeves. When a girl has to go to the bathroom, so she pulls along the girl sitting next to her and drags her along with her. My friends and I always joke around about what girls do in there. rolleyes.gif

So, tell me, do you actually go to the bathroom? Or are you just running to the toilets to get away from us guys? It seems to be the only place, with exception to maybe a shoe store, that guys will refuse to enter laugh.gif . Well, if that is your reasoning girls, I applaud you: it is genius! lol

Having an older sister myself, I have had to witness firsthand the dangers of female-female fights. When one breaks out, prapare to hear about it for at least three months thereafter. rolleyes.gif So girls, what's up with all the drama that seems to tag along you!? Why are fights between two girls, though usually not physical, so detrimental to your friendships? I have seen my friends get into big fights all the time, but in a couple of days they are back to being friends again. So why can't girls forgive and forget? Hmmm...




_daviD
Aethonon
Thanks for the reply before, daviD! I was thinking I just take too good of care of my men. Seems that when I need them to take care of me, though, they're so spoiled they just wonder why I'm not taking care of them! lol But yeah, I think I haven't always been honest...I've let things slide, things they did, when it really did bug me. So they got used to thinking it didn't bother me. I hate arguments, so I tried to avoid that, and it was a mess. Ah well, male-female relations do tend to be a mess sometimes. *sigh* But I was too nice. I didn't stand up for myself.

LOL at the girls in the bathroom thing. What do girls do in there? They go to the bathroom, man! And they gossip through the stall doors while they do, and then they gossip while they wash their hands and check their make-up, knowing full well no guys will be in there, unless Michael Jackson 'reads the sign wrong' again. huh.gif

laugh.gif

Fights...first of all, girls are raised to think they should always be nice. It doesn't mean we always are nice, but we feel an obligation to be. This leads to a lot of catty behavior, like talking behind other people's backs instead of talking out the problem with the friend we have the problem with. So when we fight, it's often because we have a prob with a friend, we don't want to be mean, so we complain about the friend to another friend. The other friend tells the other friend what you said, so suddenly you look like a jerk for talking behind someone's back, and you're also mad at the person who told the friend, because they were talking behind your back, and are therefore also jerks! So the trust is gone, and it may never come back...that's why it seems to go on so long, as we deal with all those negative emotions we're not supposed to feel because we are girls and therefore 'nice.' wink.gif Dunno if that helped.... wacko.gif

OK...my son has a question for the girls...lol. OK, at a dance, a particularly good song starts to play, and every girl in the place shrieks--"Oh, I love this song!!!!" --for about 10 seconds into it. Why do you do this? It drives him up the wall.
Just the Droobles
A lot of what annoys me has already been said...girls acting stupid in front of guys...guys needing to be good at EVERYthing...all that stuff.

What really annoys me about girls(I am one, so I get to witness all this garbage firsthand) is when they feel the need to have to have a boyfriend all the time. Not all of them do,but I had one friend break up with a guy she dated for less than a day, and then she turned to me and said, "So who do you think I should go out with now?" dry.gif Boy. I just wanted to slap her. And also, on the subject of boyfriends, I hate it when all the sudden the boyfriend becomes more important than anything else in the world. The girl always has to be near them, hanging all over them, can't be away from them for five seconds, completely forgets who her friends are...yes, that has happened to me as well.

Another thing that annoys me about girls (I don't know if any of you have experienced this, but I have) is when they say "I don't care what anyone thinks of me!!!" and then they turn around and ask you if they look okay. *sigh* If you don't care, why are you asking my opinion? And then, they say "Tell me the truth!!" and if I were to tell them the truth they would just get all huffy with me, so I don't. And when I do, they get all huffy with me. So it is basically pointless to even ask.

Something that annoys me about guys is how they pretend not to be shallow. Yeah, every once in a while, you really will meet a guy who isn't a complete dunderhead, but honestly...I know a lot of guys say they don't like a lot of make-up and they don't like all the tight clothes and they like real beauty, but half of the girls who you see with a guy are those girls. They are usually the basic "curvy" make-upped type. If guys like a girl with real beauty and all that, how come girls feel so pressured to have to wear it to look good? I don't wear any because for one I think it looks bad on me, and two because I'm too lazy to put any on. But is anyone asking me out? Nope. True beauty my big toe. dry.gif There are people who don't wear makeup who do have boyfriends, but the majority who do are usually wearing make-up. That's just what I'm observing.

Ah, girls going to the bathroom together. laugh.gif I usually finding myself doing that, but I don't like going in our school bathrooms because they smell like cigarette smoke and then you stink for the rest of the day. So bascially the only people who congregate in our bathrooms are smokers. Even though they aren't allowed to smoke on campus.

I just enjoy when a guy would be more himself around girls. I mean, if a guy is looking for a chick who's going to like them for who they are, then they need to act how they really are. Same goes for girls. If you pick a good person from the beginning, you may not have to go through all the struggle of breaking up and getting hurt. Maybe. Because there is always those scummy guys and the ditzy girls who will leave you faster than anything.

OK...my son has a question for the girls...lol. OK, at a dance, a particularly good song starts to play, and every girl in the place shrieks--"Oh, I love this song!!!!" --for about 10 seconds into it. Why do you do this? It drives him up the wall.
Your question--or your son's rather--is a bit confusing. I mean, I know what you're talking about in a way because it does happen. A song comes on and everyone shrieks and that's about it. But what else are we supposed to do? Shriek through the whole song? Am I misunderstanding? huh.gif

The guys who would rather be alone than date a girl who isn't a cheerleader-type? Yep, there's another thing that hasn't changed since I was in high school. I'm not sure if this is right, but maybe at that age guys are more worried about what their friends will think of their date's looks, than they are in really hooking up with someone nice who is fun to be with? Seems to me that most guys shake that off by the time they're in their early twenties, but I'm not sure why. Maybe just the realization that girls don't have to have every strand of hair in perfect synchronicity in order to be worth being around? wacko.gif

As for my son's question, I think he just wondered why anyone does that at all, but again, I'm not sure. Droobs, he's been talking about joining VTM for months, I'm going to tell him it's about time he did, so he can give you a real answer! wink.gif Thanks, I needed a good excuse to push him! lol smile.gif

ha, this topic has some pretty funny comments. im a guy, so, dont think otherwise. someone posted guys are too sloppy, and i think thats because most guys would rather do something else instead of clean, and put cleaning off for "later". i admit, my room is getting dirty right now. also, guys will act "cool" in front of girls, because we like you, and we want you to like us back, and acting cool in front of other guys... i geuss thats just an ego thing. and, the other guys will probly rip on you if your all "cuddly" with your GF. so... on to girls. i read above about the bathroom thing, and that is so true. i dont know why, but it is. and, about dressing...[i]scandilously[i] girls do that for attention, im not saying every girl does it, but it is sadly true that girls will probly get more attention wearing less. (from guys) but, if you are one of those girls, maybe thats not the kind of attention you want or need. as for make up, i geuss it makes the young girls feel mature, and the older women look younger. make up your minds. smile.gif

What annoys me is the oppisite gender always complaining about the oppisite gender and using annoying stereotypes to complain about them. tongue.gif

I really dont stereotype.. Thats just dumb, I mean you cant judge anybody till you know them, and everybody is different so you cant clasify them in a group right?.. AND I do not complain about boys.. Whatever happens with them is just as much my fault as theirs, unless they chaet on me or something. What really bugs me about boys is that they think if youre pretty you´re stupid, I mean whats that?.. Because youre pretty you cant be smart?.. THAT is an stereotype boys use.. so dont criticize grils for stereotyping when you do the same thing. Another thing I cant stand about boys is that they are friends with grils who are pretty only for the fact that they are pretty, and are not friends with girls who are not the best looking just becuase they dont look like angelina jolie..

Wow..this is interesting..
The thing that bothers me about guys is that they try to act all cool and they are really immature.lol..Im in 9th grade and the guys (most of them) act like they are 10 year olds. I also don't like how they make the most idiotic comment and then the whole bunch of them start laughing like its the funniest thing ever. rolleyes.gif As for girls..I am one..I wear makeup sometimes but not alot. And I wear a good amount of clothing..like when i go out or to the dance i may wear somthing a little more showy than usual but i dress conservitavly. And Gossip..well I cant live without it...like celeb gossip..its funny. Like..omg..Britney Spears is getting devorced..its just funny. Im not like the OMG..did you like totally hear..that like she dumped her boyfriend, kind of gossiper. lol ok well thats all for now!

What bugs me is when people don't realize that complaining about the opposite sex is like complaing about the sun being yellow. Just what do you hope to accomplish? I see no reason to join into this discussion. Then again I don't see a point in anything I do, so why not?
First of all, I am male (The verdicts still out on whether I'm a man or a boy but I'll notify you all when they get back. ) and I am an idiot and unwilling to change because the whole world is lot more fun when you're an idiot. Secondly, not all guys are like me. One Alex from my high school hates me with a passion because I behave like an immature jerk some times. (Well that's what he says atleast. Personally I feel he just doesn't like me. Could be my mouth, though.) Thirdly, when I was ten I was a lot more mature than I am now, doll. That's a rather empty comparison.

I would also like to affirm I do not believe someone is stupid just because they look good. I may say a number of unfeeling or inappropriate things but that's my way of saying "Hi, can I be your friend?". I treat everyone fairly and am more than willing to amend any incorrect beliefs I may hold. I have a variety of friends, some good-looking, some not. I would be grateful to date any of them. But ,as we all know, a woman will only accept you as a friend if she doesn't think you're good enough to date her. And that's my insensitive comment of the day.
