Are you going to be authoring paperbacks or novels? Your dad's library could use some good reading by you.

Feel like it could mostly be summarized in the terms of:

+ Self Serving Bias
+ Fundamental Attribution Error
+ Testostrone
+ Agression
+ Societies norms.

It would be only fair to make a sequel called the Big Book of Sexist Female Stereotypes.

Tricky isn't it.

Careful, some get squirrelly when point out it's a 2 way street.

What about the rule about guys not liking it when the shoe is on the other foot? They can pick on others, but nobody is allowed to pick on them?

If I offended you or anyone with this post Im sorry and that wasn't my intent. I only meant this as a kind of humorous list of MY observations of male behavior. I'm not a sexist. To be honest Im not in any way a feminist and I find most of their rant offensive. My loved ones are all male and I love males. I find their behavior both baffling and humorous. As for someone making a big book of female behavior as men see it, I would LOVE to see that. Im sure female behavior is just as baffling to men as theirs is to me and I would enjoy seeing their observations. Im sure my boyfriend, brother and dad could write a list of stuff they observe me doing that's just as long if not longer.

I figured it was generally meant in humor and I like you, so it wasn't directed at you. Not offended, more tired at the atmosphere and the double standard around in general.

I've already come across a post in another thread this morning here that riled me, and I'm sure the poster that made it is going to continue to blame "white men" with impunity for everything under the sun. I get sick of hearing it and the wilful dishonesty of those who peddle this line, especially those who feel suddenly extra-justified that they can because they've transitioned. 

But that's not meant for you... It's meant for the ideologues around here and I don't want to derail the thread.

I'd be happy to read such a book and get a kick out of it I'm sure. I just like to remind some of the people around here that if they can give a joke I hope they can take one as well.

Kylo,

You and me both! It's not an honest discussion when it is a projected diatribe (from either side of the fence). Oh and I'll take offence at literally everything you say to me, because mental health, but be certain that if I've sent a quip your way, I'm certainly expecting something back

That is totally my brother. He loves to mess with other people but no ones allowed to mess with him. But that isn't limited to males. I had a friend  who was always saying smart ass and insulting stuff to everyone but if someone said something to her the person was a cruel monster.  That friendship didn't last long with me being the smart ass I am .

Two pages and not one mention of the worse male trait? Two words: Toilet seat.

Oh yes. That and not replacing the toilet paper when they use it all up. Getting up in the middle of the night and almost breaking your ass falling into the bowl and then realizing there is no toilet paper really sucks!!

It's not difficult to put down

I don't get the toilet seat thing. It's not hard to put down. But it's not hard to put up either. What's the big deal?

If the seat should be down, shouldn't the lid be closed too? I don't know anyone but old folks who keep the lid and the seat down religiously.

My guy friend I live with is constantly putting empty pitchers, orange juice jugs, and empty leftover dishes back in the refrigerator. He doesn't even leave bits of food or drops of beverage, they're completely empty. It's baffling and really annoying when I'm digging to get to my little jug of milk that's always shoved to the back.

Don't forget the courtesy sniff

Hi everyone.  So living with 3 guys I've made a lot of observations about male thinking and behavior. So I decided to share them with you....

Thats scary accurate

Tyler leaves minuscule bits of stuff in them because my dad yelled at him and told him if he emptied a dish he had to wash it. So he makes sure to leave a tiny bit in them. Lol.

We do at our house.  Because we have at times pets like ferrets and other small critters that could get in the toilet and drown. We don't have them anymore but it is just a habit now. Plus it keeps stuff from falling into the toilet.
