Why are women SO OBSESSED with the following things? (Page 2)

Question

The Color Pink: Even little girls... I give kids balloons at work, and when I ask what color, the girls will point at the pink balloon and giggle.Cleanliness:  Women go overboard with cleanliness. Everything must be organized perfectly, everything dusted, everything must be scented (bedsheets sprayed with a fragrance, carpet deodorizer, etc)Shoes/Feet: Lots of women find guys with a foot fetish disgusting. Yet, they are obsessed with their own feet, each others' feet and pedicures.  Lots of girls also stand around in a circle and take pictures of their feet. The girl I'm seeing right now will often check out other girls' feet and make comments "her feet are cute" "Gosh her polish is chipping" "Why is she wearing flip flops with socks?" "I wonder if she got those heels on sale..hmm" OMG SHUT UPTrashy romance novels: The 400 page garbage novel by some short haired dike looking author with Fabio on the cover. The main guy in the novel is considered  "sweet and mysterious" but in real life he would be considered CREEPY. Anything on TV but sports:  Reality shows, One Tree Hill, Twilight, etc.  OK OK, some girls know about sports, but the majority of you don't!Gossip: "She did this, he did that? She's such a, what a jerk...I did this today, I did that today, My boss is such a..blah blah"Sappy flicks: The stuff to make you cry? why?Diet Coke/Ultra Lights:  And not just soda and cigarettes, but anything that says LITE, DIET, etc. Organic food: Organic foods, whole foods, Trader Joes, ie. Salads...even at McDonalds, etc.   Fruity Drinks: Mango Margaritas, Cosmo, Peach Schnapps, Smirnoff Ice, Barcardi Silver, Mikes Hard Lemonade, Wine coolers, Apple-tini (or any tini) Malibu,  Bay Breeze, etc. You can save more with harder drinks (drink less) than these fruity drinks! Webcam/texting/photos:. Texting while driving (or driving while texting?) ...see section GOSSIP listed above. Also, 1000+ photos on Facebook. These Cars: Toyota Celica, Scion TC, Chevy Cavalier, Mitsubishi Eclipse, Hyundai Tiburons, Mini Coopers, Dodge Neons, Volkswagen Beetles, some of these cars are mucho oogglly...Things you do "for yourself": But seriously, you do these things for a guy's attention too, don't lie.  Most of these things we don't care about: Press-on nails, hair highlights, excessive wrist jewelry.Anything shiny or Neon: Glitter, Neon socks, tie dye shirts, shiny rings, necklaces, etc.Stuffed animals and small animals: Kittens and these dogs: Affenpinschers, Beagles, Chihuahuas, or any dog on this link.   link         These tattoos: Hearts, Butterflies, "STAR" tattoos on the foot, etc. Certain snacks: Sour patches, pretzels, Starbucks, any candy in the "gummy" family, such as..but not limited to...gummy bears, gummy worms, etc.    Themselves: Talk about philosophy, no dice.  Talk about her, SHE'LL TALK FOREVER :-)

Anonymous · Answer

all that you said... OMG

Pink? nah I preffer red, sushi? aj discusting, the erotic novels are good though, I love football,... I'm the exact opposite of all that you said. Well except for the shiny things and the fruity drinks :) (lol you can't have beer all the time)

You described (exactly) an old friend I had who now lives in barbie-land. I used to think I was the only one who thought being like that was silly. Guys like her though. If you think all that about the girl your seeing, how come you like her¿?

Glittergirl6 · Answer

Most of the stuff you said are stuff I don't really like. I don't like pink, I'm not a fan of my feet or other peoples feet, I don't really care about cleaning everyday 24/7, I don't read books about a creepy guy named fabio, I'd rather watch baseball basketball or soccer on TV instead of a soap opera, I don't really take part in gossip, I do like some sappy flicks but I'd rather watch a horror movie, I hate diet drinks, I am a fan of organic foods but I don't obsess over it, ew I hate fruity drinks (I only like lemonade!) I rarely text people unless it's a friend I don't see a lot, I'd rather have a truck not a small little car, I don't like neon colors, small animals are alright but I like big dogs and my horse, I don't like tattoos, and I hate talking about myself.

I guess I'm just not a 'girlie' girl.

titch · Answer

Maybe it says more about you and the women you surround yourself with than it actually says about women .

I didn't recognise any of your examples . in fact I was I was shocked that it was posted in the 25 to 29 group . Are you hanging out with teenagers ?

Anonymous · Answer

Most of the things you listed above are stereotypical. F*** PCism because stereotypes exist for a reason, so they are often true..  Most of these things listed above don't bother me too much...except GOSSIP.    People who gossip consistently DISGUST me.   It is one of the most onerous, vile, heinous of all human behaviors.   Men aren't above reproach on this one (I'm not even perfect...but I avoid it when necessary).   BUT honestly you women are much worse about this.  And YOU think since you are women you are ENTITLED to engage in this disrespectful behavior.

thisislifebaby · Answer

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA you sound bigoted and like a dim witted child you know that right? The reason why women are getting defensive because what you have said is 1.) stereotyping, which automatically offends most people and makes you sound quite dumb 2.) this particular stereotype portrays women as narcissistic and dull 3.) just because you know some women and are related to some women does NOT mean you know every woman on the planet. What you have said is rude, what you have done here is just making offensive presumptions of what you think woman stand for. Have you ever thought that maybe just maybe that people do whatever they want and what some bigoted person thinks of what they do doesn't matter to them? What you have done in the question can be done for men,people who have fake tans, people that are brunettes, people that shop live in houses not apartments, men that wear gel in their hair or for the whole human race.

starr20465 · Answer

I HATE SUSHI. it's disgusting. But I do love pedicures, we like movies that make us cry because sometimes we just need to cry, and we gossip cause its fun:)

MrsJones7 · Answer

I guess you want your woman to act like your homeboy. Certain things are liked by women more. That does not mean ALL and EVERY and EACH woman is OBSESSED with these things above. I hate some of the things you mentioned. I guess all these things are more girly, woman-like and we are sorry for being women then.

KoolKat09 · Answer

Sounds like your describing a lot of the girlie girls out there.. If you hate girls like this then why are you going out with one? Not trying to start trouble here, I'm just saying.

And honestly... lmao.. If I were anything like this "girly girl" type, I'd probably want to kill myself, =|

Anonymous · Answer

Okey I didn't read all of that  because its too much , but not all girls like pinks, and girls like everything to be perfect and well done , if women didn't do any of that you guys won't .. so life would just be a mess .. plus .. there are many other girls who don't care if their houses were clean and don't even give them selves any time to look good .. they just don't care .. and these women usually don't get guys .. so if girls weren't obsessed with wt you wrote you probably won't even look at any of them .. except the color pink .. it doesn't really matter xD

musiclover14 · Answer

To think all girls are like that is not right , not all are like you described , in fact my favorite is color is green I can't stand pink and my favorite food is a good burger  that happens to have jalapenos all over it, I love hot sauce the hotter the better and I love chicken wings and Chinese food, yes I love guys, no I don't talk about myself a lot unlike now because I'm trying to prove a point, not every girl is going to like sports, I don't that's one thing that you did get right, the only sport I find good is a hockey game because they'res fights yeah and I hate sushi its disgusting so as for the girl you described I don't know where you live but that's sounds like most of the girls from California or celebrity's  even they aren't like you described, Oh and I love smelling good and being clean and don't tell me guys don't like to shower and like to be clean and smell good

lookingforsurity29 · Answer

I have a Jeep Grand Cherokee and am probably one of the messiest (I do try to keep things clean, but I am not orderly all the time) girls you will meet. I think a home should be clean, but not to the point that it looks like no one lives there. :)

I do, however like begals, but because I love their bark, but would much rather have a pit bull or boxer.

Picopa · Answer

wow! I do most of those things not even thinking about what other women are doing. I do drive a volkswagen beetle! so what?! I like the way I live my life. But, apparently guys don't because I can't get one. But, I'm not gonna change. Date a guy if we offend you so much!

proudtexasgirl · Answer

Way to generalize lol. More than half of these don't apply to me.

Cailleach · Answer

I don't know why most women are like that. I personally don't get it, nor do I want to. It irritates me that people are like that.

monica94 · Answer

Most of those apply to me except for: romance novels (hate them), sports (dont mind watching them), gossip (annoying), anything diet or organic (they just taste weird), tattoos (dont have any... yet), and talking about myself (makes me feel egotistic). Other than that your spot on =)  but way to generalize girls lol.

blufrenzy93 · Answer

So you'd rather us be men ? This is a generalization of all women, and no, I'm not getting "defensive." There are things that make us women and you all men...

secondbestkiller · Answer

THE NUMBER OF ANSWERS ON THIS ALREADY. Jesus tittyf***ing Christ.

Anonymous · Answer

That's like saying that all guys sit around in camo cutoffs and dirty wifebeaters, drinking dirt cheap beer while putting a lift kit on their primer gray truck, flexing their bicep with a barbed wire tattoo around it, grunting instead of using words while petting their pit bull.  Also scratching their balls, telling lies about fish and women to their buddies who are sitting around playing with rifles while chewing tobacco and drinking Kentucky Tavern whiskey.

shesaladyround2 · Answer

hahaha I fit so many descriptions in that list. and I'm not gonna apologize. did you try datng guys? I think that might be more your thing lol or try tomboys that only  hang around guys all day. they usually have bad manners and are not that clean and hate everything shiny. plus you could watch sports on TV with them .so there you go. they gossip too though.

ayelen · Answer

Loooool, not all girls are like that. There are only three points in the list that fit:

* organic food: nothing to do with being a girl

* small dog breed: it's the only one I could realistically have

* philophies/talking: I just like to think about everything, also politics etc

All the rest... no thanks ;)

Belllynn · Answer

LMAO! I'm one of those people to be bitchy about these questions but this one is just plain hilarious. An ladies you know half the sh*t on her is completely true! But not all ladies are as bad as these things. Like I hate pink and pedicures and I don't mind dudes feet. When I was younger I would wash my grandmas feet and she would always haw these long ass toenails. And I HATE READING! And watching TV is only one of those things when I'm frikin bored but there no way I'll watch those horrible reality TV shows(big brother, Jersey shore, desperate house wifes,  etc.) I watch things like discovery, animal planet, scarred, and music videos all the time. And the cleanlyness, it's your crap so why care about it.  Okay well had fun reading this. Bye

longtimenosee · Answer

Do I like it?

1.) It's a color, I don't care.

2.) I'm messy.

3.) Feet really? Haha. I'm not.

4.) I hate those. So much...

5.) I watch BMX. No House Wives of blah blah blah.

6.) No gossip please.

7.) Uh no way. I hate those too.

8.) I don't care.

9.) Organic usually tastes better and is better for you.

10.) I don't drink.

11.) Nope not me.

12.) I like old cars.

13.) It's fun, like art. Just a way of showing who you are and standing out.

14.) Anything shiny? Really? Wow...

15.) Depends on the girl.

16.) I'm getting a the words, "Over the tides" on my arm, my dad was in the navy. I think the others look trashy.

17.) Ew.

18.) Who doesn't?

19.) I like the taste of sushi.

I'm a normal girl. There you have it. :)

lioness95 · Answer

Don't mind the colour pink, I'm the reverse of cleanliness and organization when it comes to my room, I'd rather watch sports or cartoons over "reality" tv, don't mind reading sappy romance novels, but prefer fiction/ adventure. I take gossip with a grain of salt, don't like organic food. I do obsess over my feet just because they do look awful. (flatest feet with awful bunions). Certain scents smell awfull to me. As for fruity drinks I don't mind them either. I'm a texting\photo kinda gal. And I like bimmers for cars. All the things that some girlsdo really are for themselves, and someone's it's jus because or because they want a guy to notice.

Bottom lIne that everyone (mostly girls) obsess about a lot of random things

morgancadie · Answer

just saying, I'm not one of those girls. the only thing I like on that list is texting. actually, I don't even like it, but I do it a lot because people never leave me alone.

i'm not bitching or anything, I'm just letting you know... there are girls out there, like me, that are cool. but don't act like its such a bad thing for girls to be the way you described, because you wouldn't be with your girlfriend if she was like me.

i'm a bro, and most of my friends consider me to be a dude. no guy wants to date me for that reason. so be glad most girls act like girls

Anonymous · Answer

how about you stop complaining.

why do little boys have to like the color blue?

why are guys so obsessed with sports that even a street game is super competitive?

why do guys always have to be aggressive and fight rather than use their brain to work things out?

you are just a sexist guy, and you're too close minded understand the reasons to things

Anonymous · Answer

Basically you're a dick. being all "Oh ladies, I'm not sexist, how dare you attack me" and then sniggering with your Bros on the mens comment section about how women are all the same and oversensitive. I have read every response you gave and it's pretty obvious what kind of of guy you are. Not a "bad" guy, but a bit lame..
I don't even know what corner of the internet i have stumbled over here but you guys seem quite young? I would say I hope you grow out of being a tosser, but I don't really care :-)

evil_dentist · Answer

You say all this as though men don't have obsessions either.

Also, I'm pretty sure most women are too busy making a living, supporting themselves or their families to spend their time obsessing over stuffed animals or diet cokes.

CorneliaisPretty · Answer

Honnestly , I know you already have gotten a lot of answers but I'll tell you what I think. of course not all women are like the above description, but a lot of us are mostly because that is what society and the media shapes us out to be. we also get influenced by women relatives when were young and impressionable.

brunettebelle · Answer

Well I don't like sushi. I love to listen and ask questions about others, I have a thing for mustangs esp the classics. I like rock music. As for sports and things I would want you to host your super bowl parties. As for TV shows, I love family guy.

Yes the media does push things. Like the ideal way to look or cool trends. I blame society for many things. If you think about it, girls are growing up wayyy to fast. The childhood innocence is lost.

Anonymous · Answer

As a girl I'm actually pretty offended to be associated with whatever white trash this describes.

9However I will say that I like organic food, fruity things, and small animals. No shame.) Please hang out with some decent people because this only reflects poorly on you.

MzNatalie · Answer

Maybe you should be with a man then. We are who we are take it or leave it. I could sit here and complain all day long about the stupid crap guys do.

traceyjill · Answer

Why?  Because we f***ing can, that's why. Simple enough, eh? I've asked the same question bout guys, can't ever get a straighter answer than the aforementioned. Oh and the philosophy bit? Ouch man.

-StillWater- · Answer

don't have Facebook, don't have a phone with a camera, don't like pink (never did), don't like gay cars - only jeeps, don't like gay meaningless tattoos...and yes, I like things being clean, but who (who's normal) doesn't?

And I especially don't like idiotic generalizations.

Anonymous · Answer

Lol, so true. Most girls are like this, and it kinda bothers me. Not all of them are like that though. I'm not like that at all, most don't apply to me. But this is so funny.

Minxxe · Answer

pretty much agree on all of that except the colour pink (unless a dark like fuschia) and maybe the star and butterfly tatt's.  otherwise f***ing spot-on matey ;O)

serendipitous · Answer

hahahhaha, this is hysterical.  A lot of these list items aren't applicable to me, but I have to admit that you're practically spot-on!  I'm guessing you didn't grow up with a sister?  haha

heyyy · Answer

You asked why? Because WE ARE GIRLS! And we are NOT men...men are different and girls are too. Oh by the way remind me making a list about the"men things" too(I have 3 brothers)...bleh

Anonymous · Answer

I think you've just summarized the entire female population. But of course, most of them on here will deny it, and say "oh that's not me, I'm original." Face it girls, you are all carbon copies of each other.

Pink is my most unfavourite color in the rainbow I'm clean but not OCD I'm not obbsessed with shoes yeah I own the latest Vans and DC's but I'm not obsessed with shoes despite I have to wear heels as part of my job these are steriotypes I probably spelt that wrong hahah

LittleMissPDX · Answer

Ha, you haven't met me obviously, well I do like fruity drinks though... what can I say they taste good. lol Very funny in general, I'm a girl and I think these things myself a lot.

MarcusDavis · Answer

Because their privates are pink...and they are anal...whether they admit it or not?

FierceMegan · Answer

Because some girls like it, and some girls are just followers. A lot of people can't make decisions for myself; therefore, a trend occurs. :\ I guess. On a lighter note, we're not all like that. :)

polkadotprincess · Answer

None except for the stuffed animals are for me. I love watching sports I hate fruity drinks (non-acholic) I don't really like the color pink an despicably don't like balloons I hate gummy candy but I do agree lots of women are like what you discribed

IGuessWeHaveAMess93 · Answer

not gonna lie, I would probably never want to talk to you in person. The way you say things is just irratating. I didn't even make it past Trashy Romance Novels. Put up or shut up bro.

rory520 · Answer

Ok we do like the majority of those things but guys have their own list. Men and women are just different in what we like. Just a hormone thing I guess.

longrodvonhugendong · Answer

You forgot to put penises on the list. We all know that's the #1 thing on every woman's mind (excluding my blood relatives).

Anonymous · Answer

I don't really like to hear this stuff because I am  a girl.  Although I agree lots of girls are like that, not all of us are.  I did have to laugh while reading this though, your kind of not wrong, a lot of girls are like this.

girlknowsbest65 · Answer

I agree with you on most of those things. Of course not all women are like this, but I can defintlally see your point.

To make it simple, women are Different from men and therefore like different things.

turtletime · Answer

I read the first three- pink, cleanliness and feet... I like all three

maiugirl · Answer

I think it is just the girl. Cause personally I am not like that. Hate the color pink. Cleanness kinda I do not mind dirt. But I ride horses so it does not bug me. That much.. The Feet thing that is just crazy. lol ;)  Gossip girls like to talk. I do not about that one. sorry the Diet Coke/Ultra Lights thing I really do not drink soda so I can not help with that. These Cars, well I am more of a truck kinda girl. I really think its just that kinda girls.  Hope that helps some what. good luck!

MrNameless · Answer

A lot of these things have a lot to do with society's expectations/gender roles on girls on how they should act and stereotypes.. The media has a huge influence on all this.

Shawil12 · Answer

if you post stuff like this people are going to get offended. its the obvious. that's why you think before you post!

myworld2point0 · Answer

Because this is who we are. I can make an even bigger list of things that guys are obsessed with. Why? Because that's how God created the boy/girl mind to work.

Quorra89 · Answer

I'm only "obsessed" with diet coke, fruity drinks, and those snacks you listed haha. the rest of it I don't care about.  I'm not a big fan of sushi though.

Anonymous · Answer

Good luck getting a girlfriend. Maybe a lot of girls are obsessed with these things but not all. So putting all girls into these categories is going to bite you in the butt.

if you spend your life trying to understand girls, your gonna fail and miss out on the fun things in life! girls are meant to be pretty and a constand mystery.

NickieLas101891 · Answer

Well would you really want a girl that didn't like ANY of those things? that would make her MANLY!
