More on Male/Female Differences
An interview of the average man by the average woman:
Why are men such jerks?
It's a testosterone thing. Much similar to your PMS thing, we men
suffer from testosterone poisoning. Why do you think the average
life span of a male is typically 10 years shorter (and it's not
just from all the nagging we have to endure)? Hormone modifies
behavior. We're just misunderstood.
Why do men always have to ogle at other women?
Again, this is a testosterone thing. Do you honestly think that
all the testosterone just fell out of our bodies the moment we met
you? Besides, women do it as well. Women are just much better at
not getting caught. I'm fairly certain it's some sort of
photographic memory deal. Women take one quick look and memorize
it for later reference. Since men lack this ability, we try to
burn it into our memory by staring as much as we can.
Why are men so uncommunicative?
You'd learn to keep your big mouth shut too if every time you open
it you get into trouble with your partner.
Why can't men just share their feelings?
Do we look like women to you? Why is it so hard to understand that
men and women are different? How are we supposed to share how we
feel when we have no idea how we feel? Unless we're experiencing
some extreme emotion like rage, hatred, disgust, or a brick on our
foot, we have no idea how we feel. Personally, I get a headache
whenever I try to figure out how I feel.
Why can't men cuddle more?
Please... How many hours do you think there is in a day? We oblige
you as much as we can, but who the heck (besides women) can stand
lying around for hours on end? We men... Men hunters... Need go
roam...Starve in cave... Must go find wildebeest... Now sitting
for hours on end on the other hand is a whole other story.
How can men sit all day without moving?
Men have very powerful sets of sitting muscles developed by
evolution that enable us to sit for extended periods of time
without getting tired. In prehistoric times, it was often
necessary to sit in one spot for extended periods of time while
hunting for prey. The more successful hunters were able to sit
very still for very extended periods of time thereby passing on
this ability to their progeny. The figgidy types were all gobbled
up by saber-toothed tigers etceteras. The end result is that
almost all modern men are born with this innate ability.
Why can't men just say "I love you?"
Men are taught from a tender young age to be self-sufficient. To
say that we love you is equivalent to saying that we need you.
Most men consider that a character fault. It's not easy to admit
to one's own character faults.
What does it mean when men say "I Love You?"
1. What do I have to do to get a beer around here?
2. I'm sorry for whatever it is that I did.
3. I forgot to get you a gift; this will have to do.
4. Huh? I'm sorry; I wasn't listening.
5. What did I forget? This should buy me a little time.
6. Stop nagging me.
Why doesn't my partner ever answer me?
We just simply don't have the energy to answer every single one of
your questions. If we think we do not have the answer, or that you
will not like the answer, we simply remain quiet and save the
energy for other things.
What's with all the belching and farting?
This usually only occurs after months of courting. It's our way to
let you know that we're comfortable with you. Believe it or not,
it's actually a sign of affection. Besides, holding it for
extended periods of time gives us stomach cramps.
Why do men hate shopping?
It's an evolutionary thing. Men hunt. Women gather. We just want
to go out, kill it, and bring it back. Who wants to spend hours
and hours to look at things we have no intention of killing?
err... Buying?
Why do men fear commitment?
Don't be so surprised. Yes; most of us do know what 'commitment'
means and can spell it correctly. It's like an automobile. No
matter how good you think this year's model is, they're always
coming out with newer, faster, better, sleeker, and sexier models.
We simply cannot be expected to purchase the first one we see. We
must browse around a bit and test drive a few. Who wants to end up
with a lemon? At least with a car, there's a slight chance of it
eventually becoming a classic. It simply makes much more sense to
lease and upgrade to the younger...err... I mean newer models
every couple of years.
What does it mean when men say, "Can we just be friends?"
Generally, it means that the recipient of said comment is
physically repulsive enough that no beer goggles may be thick
enough to provide adequate protection.
Why do men like younger women?
Well, let's see. Besides the fact that they like older men,
they're easily impressed. They're also perky, energetic, and come
with very little baggage.
Why do men only have one thing on their minds?
While technically correct, this statement is not strictly true.
We may only be able to entertain one idea at a time, but we do
think of lots of other things, such as sports and beer. We also
get hungry quite often.
Why are men such dogs?
I resent that. Dogs are faithful... loyal... affectionate... and
obedient...
