I Have a Question

Why do men say women are complicated? I think it's the other way around since me and @callmehopelessnotromantic are having a lot of trouble trying to figure them out. 馃槀馃榿

Because when we say "I have nothing to wear", it means I have nothing clean.

When you say "I have nothing to wear", it means I have a million things in my wardrobe, but I don't like any of it right now.

How am I doing?

I understand what you mean Rae, I agree with you and I too am against the labeling of all people, not just women.
I don't think that using the word "bitch" will never stop but at least there are people like you who understand that being honest and straightforward doesn't make anyone a "bitch". I'm still confused as to why is a name for a female dog used to describe some women.

@MrBrown... but men do that too.. allegedly men are even worse at pretending nothing is wrong, they try not to show emotion when they are grieving, sad, etc cos they think it makes them seem vulnerable.. Men are, allegedly, notoriously bad at opening up and discussing feelings, fears etc

Origaime: I understand but there is still too large of the population out there that thinks if a woman has confidence or asks a man for what she wants she is a bitch, I challenge that notion.

So, I get it is a joke, but I am still throwing it out there. :)

we aren't that hard to figure out. we don't like to express our feelings except through sex and we like to have sex to scratch our itch. oh wait, you can't tell if we're in love or just itchy can you?
sorry

The truth is boring.. not in the least sensationalist.. both men and women are complicated.. It's generally true that we don't tend to understand the opposite gender.
Imsmall, I'm not like that though. I'm one of the easiest people to get along with until disrespect and disloyal things happen.

@bijouxbroussard Ssshhhhhhh! you're not supposed to tell them that, it's our secret! 馃槀馃槀馃槀
Why you guys like to drive us insane and then say we are complicated lol
GoneRogue51-55, M
Men are straight forward. They say what they mean. Women say stuff like "We're out of milk, dear" but they mean "Would you get some milk dear"

They speak code and are always testing you to make sure you haven't turned into a wuss for some reason. Yes they're complicated.

And although I kinda figured out [i]how[/i] women work, I'm still confused about [i]why[/i] they are that way 馃榿

Well I have to say I'm certainly getting a great education here. :)
Brooksy, I actually think surprisingly a lot like a man!
*gives unclebuckwasagenius benadryl*
A girl I was seeing asked if her summer dress made her look fat. I said no (without looking) she was annoyed that I'd answered without looking at her, so I did, she was then annoyed because 'I should have told her she looked great, it was an obvious answer, and I didn't need to look to know that'

Why would anyone think being bitchy would be a good thing? I don't like the notion that if a woman sticks up for herself and says what she wants she is a bitch?
I think it is being straight foward and honest.
You don't have to be a diva about it and you don't have to nag either.
Men (in general) are much more complicated than they like to pretend. They actually seem to prefer women who know how to "finesse" them. They're enchanted and intrigued by the ones who keep them off-balance. There's a reason they often dismiss the women who are direct and upfront about wanting them as "easy". For generations, women wouldn't have been teaching their daughters about using guile and wiles to capture men's interest; there wouldn't be LIBRARIES on the subject, if it didn't WORK !
I'm so not like this in the right relationship. Do not misunderstand me, one man brought out the crazy. And I swore I'd never be in a position to be that way again. If I even start thinking similar thoughts I'm gone before it gets to that point usually.

because we don't understand why women don't like the men who like them but like the men who don't like them, so we act like we're not interested so the woman we really want is interested

@bijoux - gives a standing ovation. we group up in the same generation. remember when "good girl didn't" (make your own list here)?

Well they did -but they didn't "hook up", take the "booty call", or "netflix and chill".

Guys had to hang around past the 2nd or 3rd date and there was an understanding that physical expressions of affection were limited to people that had shown at least a modicum of affection. There were exceptions of course -but women understood that lads with their newly acquired testosterone bore watching :)
I understand gay men. But I don't understand straight men..I can't relate to anything that wouldn't fuck Tom Hardy 馃槙
I don't do those things really Rae. I'm more the sure go out with your friends and have fun kind of girl.
Originalme26-30, F
I was responding to her previous comment, it was a joke! 馃榿
I'm not bitchy at all lol
Originalme, maybe we're not being bitchy enough??
emptythrone31-35, M
men are simple, feed us, fuck us, and he's a good dude be direct about what's bothering you, you'll get an effort trust me
Rae, I'm one of the easiest people to get along with once they've convinced me it's the right relationship lol
That might not be a great idea. I mean that was never recommended when I was in nursing school lol
Justpeaceandlove61-69, F
My ex husband use to tell me all the time he couldn't figure me out. I ask him why was he trying to... :)
MrBrownstone46-50, M
Because say things like "I'm fine" when your not. Just say what is on your mind.
Originalme26-30, F
Haha Brooksy,you're doing great so far! I found out I'm more of a man than a woman 馃槀
Pretzel61-69, M
@hopeless - I actually took one today and have already fallen asleep three times :)
emptythrone31-35, M
@hopeless again because if we do everything correctly you get bored
Pretzel61-69, M
Original - not bitchy - just firm and command respect :)
Originalme26-30, F
Amy, we should start being bitchy lol
*sniffs air* I smell a feminist 馃構
xCorvo26-30, M
we're both complicated :P
Pretzel61-69, M
@rae - yup
emptythrone31-35, M
and we're not allowed to tell the truth, so we lie, if we tell the truth we are castigated as assholes, but wait women love assholes

I think we try too hard. Relax and be yourself, you'd be amazed. Why do we need to figure each other out? More fun guessing. ;)
Originalme26-30, F
Unclebuck OMG I almost fell off my chair!! I know I said this already but you always make me laugh 馃槀

Mr. Brown a woman would understand that "fine" and we forget in your universe fine means good.
Justpeaceandlove61-69, F
I think we don't listen or accept each other exactly how we are. I love me but you don't.. lol
Pretzel61-69, M
I WISH benadryl would help that one - maybe some saltpeter?
Haha unclebuck just trying to help that itch!
MrBrownstone46-50, M
What do you want to know about men?
SW-User
Just: More fun guessing ;)

I don't understand. I am a man. I'm too simple to understand you.
