You know you think like a guy when ...

[Alexmakenoise]

Along the lines of what Octavianus said, I don't think it's that guys don't care, it's that different guys care about different things.  There is no universal definition of "beauty".  But I think this is a human thing, not a gender-specific thing.  And I suspect the real reason women are so detail-oriented about their appearances is because they are trying to compete with other women.  Among women, a "better body" = high social status.

Of course I've never had any interest in gaining social status as a woman so I dress and maintain my hygiene in accordance with my own standards, with are largely determined by what's practical.

The practice of going to bathrooms in groups sure is puzzling.  I can't relax and pee if someone trying to talk to me.

You know you think like a guy when you'd rather pee outdoors than in a bathroom full of chattering women.

I hate the bathroom thing, too, it drives me crazy.

Also, I had several offers for makeovers through my school career.

And girls do seem to care more about looks than guys.

Guys actually don't care all that much.

not always, my dad and i are the most fashion conscious people in the family/ he always asks for advice from me for his clothes

I think they care a lot really.  It's just that its often a different notion that they are caring about.  True, farmers in the mid-west are not exactly a fashion plate, but they are warm in clothes that will give them freedom of movement and wear like iron.  And that's what they want, the the clothing reflects that.

Ever look at those nice power suits that guys with power have?  $800 easy.  Because anything less than that looks like a $50 dollar suit.  Hell, a good Italian tie runs me $70+.

Check this out and get back to me on guys not caring that much.

P.S. that's over 300K hits for men's fashion in San Francisco, a city that only has 800K people in the city limits.

tsstss some men care about looks, I'v seen some pretty vain guys in my highschool career ,and tbh, I'm one of those
tho having a female body and girly face I don't exactly pull it off, but I do like to look good. Even if it screams 'really butch lesbian' to the unknowing world.


Yeah I'v got 'overmakes', still traumatized, apparently girls like to give girls that don't dress the way society portrays 'advice'. No idea why, unless your really a girl it might change but if your not .... To me its just an insult, nobody has the right to dig into my life and make changes. 

don't get me started on the bathroom thing, heavens I'm out of school ... I never got the point of that and found it downright annoying. It was so bad I used to go when the whole place was empty, or at least no girls I knew where around.

[Jeatyn]

When I say "don't care" I don't generally mean all guys will settle for anything.

I just mean when girls spread half a ton of makeup over their faces, or get fake tans, or panic because they have a pimple. Little details that the average guy probably won't spot unless you blatantly point it out to them.

Chicks in magazines are a totally different matter, I've seen guys rip apart even the most impossibly perfect of models.

I'm still in college and use to live in an "all girls" dorm... i'd  do everything I could to avoid going to the bathroom when anyone else was in there... But it never failed... Someone would walk in (normally a group of them) and they would be talking while someone peed in the stall next me... it's weird..

oh man I feel your pain, I had to live in an all girls dorm for a semester and it sucked, and I will never understand why girls go to the bathroom together, and do their makeup in there.  Bathrooms are for pissing and #2 lol

You ditch your shoe shopping friends to run to the hardware store. 
I did this a few days ago and laughed when I realized what I had done.

[Andy]

I stand in the kitchen and eat out of the pan. Why dirty a dish? DUH

I say, Turn it UP!

Jack off as often as possible, wherever or however the mood happens to strike. Repeat as needed.

I can't stop looking at the teenage girls at the pool.

I have restless urges to go out in the woods, burn things, shoot things, and piss on things!!
Good Times, boys!!

When you believe that if it can't be mended with duct tape, it's utterly broken.

I have a friend who has worn the same old sneakers for five years. He mends them with duct tape and cable ties. On occasion, he buys the black-and-yellow-striped duct tape for variety.

God, I thought I was the only one. I've been repairing my 4 year old sandals that way. If I can find another pair of leather, open toed, close backed sandals in a size 4 mens, I'd be happy to get new ones. But despite the fact that these are chewed up and one strap is broken, I will duct tape and safety pin them until they're made of 70% repairs.

... you instinctively flee the room as soon as nearby women start complaining about their boyfriends/male friends, expecting a glare to be shot at you for being one of the enemy.

... you see an explosion/car crash/collision/random big boom on tv, and you can't help but make some awed or enthusiastic noise.

..., watching a sport, you've got to sit at the edge of your seat, leaning forward. And mumble commentary under your breath. Especially if it's hockey. And referees are the enemy.

... you can actually temporarily lose the ability to speak because you're looking at someone really attractive.

Sorry Guy's

I was in the middle of the Simpson desert (Google it) and blew the manifold off my Toyata 4WD, 1980 model  I repaired it with fence  wire, repair is a poor word, but we drove it for another 500ks. Survived. The whole engine just jumped up and down.

I'm a girl so?
Just for fun BTW

When you really need to pee whilst holding a slice of day old pizza, and decide that hell, you can keep eating while you go.

"why would I wear a dress?"

more like "Who would I give one to?"
