10 Most Common Misconceptions about Guys (Page 2)

[humanearth]

Hey that's a pretty good story there. You have men figure out better then most men.

[Armourdillo]

I hate how good takes like this one gets torn to shreds by women who want to believe they are 100% in the right at all times and that men are always to blame.

[bailey11]

Men aren't always to blame but if we can talk about every topic under the sun, how come we're not good at expressing ourselves/putting into words, when it comes to how we feel about a woman we're supposed to care about?

[Armourdillo]

Because what's "good" is defined by women.

[serious]

Yes, this is a good take but I am not sure about how much point #2 is valid though.

[akihon]

Spot on, still a bit too late I'm done with your society, let burn to ashes I'm out.

[9teen]

Basically, men are surprisingly human too.

[LegendarySir]

After too much Internet I started to doubt myself 🙁

[sasukeuchiha7]

This is perfection.
Although number 8 is true for me. I don't notice when she changes her hair or does her nails. Plus I don't really care about clothes so

[bailey11]

I agree. If guys notice when a woman looks different, why don't they say anything? Why do they act like they didn't notice the change?

[sasukeuchiha7]

Well if it's a random person or friend, noticing stuff like that comes off as creepy I guess

[bailey11]

No, I'm talking about a boyfriend, husband, significant other.

[sasukeuchiha7]

Even that way, I don't notice

[lord_chilled]

that was very nice to read.

somewhat disagree with 8, i personally do overlook the little things sometimes. like nails for example.

by the way where is the gif from, for number 8?

[ADFSDF1996]

Interesting take/article but there’s nothing wrong with men being strong.

[John_Doesnt]

Many women believe we have a whole rainbow of emotions, but really men only have 3 emotions:
1. Horny
2. Happy
3. Hungry

[bailey11]

Men have feelings, too, but too many men don't act like it. They suppress their feelings and act like robots.
And here's the double standard: we feel we don't have to compliment a woman because "to him you’re beautiful either way so it doesn’t make a difference" but yet women are supposed to "give a man a compliment and praise him for doing his best. A little compliment goes a long way." Life doesn't work like that. We can't withhold attention but expect others to give it to us!

[Dionigi]

Thank you for writing it :)
About number 3 : I learned the hard way that if my woman needs to fight it's my responsibility to give that fight to her 🤣

[bailey11]

Women usually don't need to fight. If we're with a troublemaker, we're better off without her. And what about when the guy is in a mood to fight? It's hard to comfort someone/difuse the situation when he just wants his own way, regardless of how the other person feels.

[levantine99]

no offense but you dont understand men either. just the fact you gotta pose those ridiculous questions. "do they have feelings?" "do they think anything other than sex?" "do they talk?" I don't know what you are on about, my husband is light years ahead more romantic and idealistic than me. men are the romantic gender on this earth. we just filter things out according to what they make us feel. doesn't make us the more romantic ones.

[Pinay_ako]

What questions? relax there. Just because you don't agree with me! When people say no offense meant, they mean offense.

[ariadneR]

EVERY MAN IS DIFFERENT. WHILE YOUR HUSBAND IS MORE ROMANTIC, OTHERS MAY NOT BE, BECAUSE THATS JUST WHO THEY ARE.
OT EVERYONE IS S LUCKY AS YOU TO HAVE THE MOST PERFECT MAN, THESE WERE MAINLY STATEMENTS AND GUIDELINES. IT MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU PERSONALLY, BUT YOU DONT HAVE TO GET BENT OUT OF SHAPE ABOUT IT.
RELAX

[bailey11]

Men have to be romantic to often get a woman to fall in love with him. But sometimes it's just an act. It's OK if a man's not ready for a relationship but then he shouldn't act like he is ready, that he wants one. He shouldn't lead a woman on - pretending he loves her so he can get into her pants, if he's not ready for a relationship. I think a lot more women would have more respect for guys if guys were honest - if they said: "I don't want a relationship, I just want to have sex with you." They probably wouldn't get much action (which is why they don't say this), but at least they'd be honest. I hear guys tell me: "Stupid, {whatever}. She thinks I love her but I'm just getting tail." (or whatever the popular expression for sex is, at the time).

[Robertcw]

Really deep and accurate. You must have experience.

[MannMitAntworten]

The telling aspect is reading the women's comments.

[Historylover18]

100% true. We're not a group of savage sexual maniacal beasts. We're humans as well

[DiegoO]

Yeah, we are not machines, we only deal differently with others and with situations that are part of life.

[hindril]

I really like this. Thank you for the good read. I agree with all of it.

[namelessyoungold]

Wait. I really don't talk much. Because no one is willing to listen at my ramblings about life on other planets or the brain's processes.
8: Kind of!

[Kimochi]

number 8 are very true, but mostly bcause i have elective mutism

[Muhammad1999]

Great take , thanks to make it clear to women that we aren't Cyborgs

[bailey11]

We aren't cyborgs but we often don't cry, either, but stuff our emotions down and not show how we feel. Then it comes out in other ways, like abuse towards others. Guys need to stop ridiculing other guys when we show emotion.
"Society" doesn't ridicule men. It's usually other men who ridicule men.

[Muhammad1999]

@bailey11 I agree , if a man shows a bit of emotion, he will be bullied by other men not women , men should not always fight each other

[bailey11]

Amen, brother.

[Bitterpill]

I can't find anything I disagree with here. Excellent take.
