@Hikikomoribabe99 I told my niece the very same thing when she was 14 she gave birth at 15. In one ear and out the other. Or in her case in between the legs and out the same way!

True that. @MartinTheFirst
@Nimbus, @Carissimi Why pick on men in particular?
Lying starts at 2-3 years old when a toddler imagines that saying what he/she wants to be true makes it so. For instance, "No, I didn't," when the evidence is right there and there's no other possible cause. If she/he can't or doesn't do this, it's a sign of intellectual disability. A sensible parent would get seriously worried and seek help.
If a child hasn't learned to lie convincingly by four years, pediatricians and neurologists will test for deficits in brain development.
Lying is a human trait; it depends on the ability to imagine that which is not, and then present a facade that makes it (at least superficially) plausible.
If we couldn't imagine what isn't so, we'd be incapable of inventing a wheel, a pot, a pipe, etc. We'd be living on equal terms with all other animals.
A more important question is why more people are not alert to the potential for lies and allow themselves to be fooled.
Another is why we are so often polite when we know someone is lying and we don't call them on it by presenting the evidence.

@deadgerbil "That's not a kangaroo in my pants. I'm just glad to see you." He's lying. He really has a kangaroo in his pants.

@Ontheroad Not really..If a woman wants your actual opinion, the last thing she is going to do is ask for it. What she wants is your affirmation that her opinion is correct. She already knew your opinion was wrong..😷

I doubt that one subject would be most common for all or even most men or women.
Lies fall into 3 categories:
- politeness or tact,
- projecting a self-image,
- con job or brainwashing.
However, one could extend the definition and say every act of story-telling is a lie,
because no matter how sincere the author,
the nature of language makes it impossible to tell the whole truth.
For instance, if I say something is blue - or even if I try to describe the exact hue, no amount of skill with language could guarantee that you can picture the exact colour I am seeing.
The best we can do is cultivate good probability, congruence, motive and bullshit barometers.

When they first meet a woman, to date her, they might not even tell her their correct name, (probably in case things go south). I am speaking from experience. The third ex told me his name was "Simon". It wasn't.
But I think they lie the MOST about how much money they make, (in the mistaken belief that money is all women care about), and perhaps the second most about how terribly faithful they are.

Since my wife knows all about me, she knows I have only had sex with her, how big/small my penis is, how good/bad I am at sex. etc. My most common lies are in answering two types of questions: (1) Do you feel okay? and (2) Does this dress make my butt look big?

@PeacefulEntity I was more thinking about fears relating to relationships, emotions and responsibilities etc. I am scared of lions, I can't stand those damn horrible stink creatures and as we live in South Africa lions, leopards, various types of wild cat etc we still come face-to-face at times on the farm.
PeacefulEntity · 61-69, M
@Anton oh, well no regarding fears guys just don't show that to women because then they look at us as if we're weak. You know the whole macho thing I want a tough strong man to protect me and so they want you know someone to protect them instead of us protecting ourselves while we have to of course that means we got to have guns and weapons something!!
