since this is an equal opportunity forum, let's have at it.

give me your own generalizations about what things females do that bug you and can perhaps modify their behavior if they saw fit to. (to put a positive/constructive spin on things )

Don't play headgames!!

That's my #1 complaint with SOME girls (note not all are like this). Tell me what's on your mind no matter how you think I will react. Don't dance around the point. Guys are usually blunt creatures and we appreciate the direct approach in most cases. Don't go back and forth on your feelings, just be straight up and honest. No headgames PLEASE!!

I totally agree. Tell me what you think. If you like me, tell me that. If you're not interested, make me aware of that, too.

If you want something, ask for it. Subtle hints do not work - ever. Just say it.

[Rant]THEIR FICKLE NATURE!!

OMG! It drives me crazy! One moment, you're in my arms cuddling, the next moment, you're w/ another guy. What also adds to is when i try to be straight forward with them, "how do you feel about me" type of talk, and they go hem and haw and i don't know.

Guess i'm doing alot of stuff wrong

no mind games... we cant read your mind... dont tell us we should already know whats wrong... dont throw subtle hints... or even blatently obvious hints... were not good at catching hints so just tell us...


and if your interested make a move... or at least make it blatently obvious... were as nervous about getting rejected as you are... if not more nervous...

Prince

In no particular order:

Gossip
I don't understand why they do it. The women at work are constantly talking about someone behind that person's back. Why are they so interested in the affairs of others?

Giggling
Few things irritate me as much as a bunch of girls giggling together. It makes them look retarded and is just plain annoying.

Make-up
I don't care for it. It doesn't look good, even when it's subtle, and as a basic rule: if you can tell someone's wearing make-up, then they're wearing too much of it. Looking like a cheap hooker doesn't take much effort.

Raving About Shoes & Clothes
I don't care about your shoes. I don't care about your clothes. Either you wear some or you don't, that's the extent of my interest. I will not remember what you wore last night, nor does the fact that you wasted all that money in something as trivial as clothing make me think very highly of you. Now, if you made your clothes from scratch by yourself, that's a different story.

The PMS Excuse
So you're in pain. You have cramps, headaches, and you're bleeding like a stuck pig. And that is my fault how exactly? Basically, I don't take too well to women who act like a bitch and just chalk it up to being on the rag. If you do, better cough up an apology real fast.

Phone Craze
Most females I know love the telephone. If Bell were alive, they'd probably fuck his brains out just out of gratitude. And these phone calls these girls make, they're not just quick hellos, either...they're marathons lasting for hours, expecting you to be able to maintain your interest in the on-going conversation, which naturally has no actual topic. They just love to talk, and expect us to love to listen.

Headgames
Almost everything can be turned into a game if you're a female. And oftentimes is, if it serves a self-purpose.

The Mother Syndrome
Deciding for me when a pair of my boxers has outlived its expiration date has never struck a good chord with me. Telling me why this and that combo of clothing isn't fashionable isn't turning me on either. My socks may expose my heels, but they're my socks. If you want to throw items out, start with your own.

N & N
Neatness and Niceness that goes beyond comprehension. Women have an amazing ability to see dirt or stains where I see none. If you think it's still dirty after my half-hearted attempting at cleaning it, clean it up yourself. I'm not interested. The other thing is the niceness. I happen to like the words "fuck", "cock", "pussy", "tits", "cunt", "twat", "shit" and even "bitch". As long as I am not using them to describe you, don't go telling me whether or not I can/should use them...that is, if you want me to continue refraining from using them to describe you.

Ongoing, drawn out, passive-aggressive power struggles are bothersome.
Some women Ive known can be fickle like that. I take some responsibility, but its still a drag.

leave the baggage at the door!

i understand that everyone has baggage and part of a relationship is dealing with it, but when you're 5 minutes into the relationship and you're already dealing with it, that's too much.

Headgames, yes. But I really dislike how some of them hate their self-image. I know it's more of a depression problem but it's so damn annoying. If you don't like how you look and aren't going to do anything about then, then quit fucking complaining.

There is a misconception that girls are naturally more mature then guys. From my experience women are just as likely to be sexuality, mentality and emotionally immature. Yet there is a social assumption that women are somehow born with these traits and thus some of them never actually bother to give them any thought.

1. Bitchiness
2. Mind Games
3. Using periods as an excuse
4. How girls expect guys to pay on dates (OK maybe not the TFP girls, but in the real world it's extremely rare to have a girl pay on the first date...you all have jobs now, you can pay your share).
5. The way they think every guy only wants to get into their pants
6. The way some dress like whores, and they get offended when people assume they're one because of how they dress
7. Fat girls who wear clothes that they shouldn't be wearing (indecent exposure if you ask me)
8. Their driving abilities...I don't care what you say to me, women are scared shitless on the roads, and it effects their driving ability
9. The way they aren't straightforward...just friggen tell me what's wrong
10. The way they ask questions that no matter what I say I get in trouble. I'd like a female to tell me why they do this

Jesus Pimp

1. Insecureness.

2 Always waiting till it's too late to tell you what is bothering them.

3. When they get their periods . All the mood swings, insecureness, and bitchiness resulting.

4. Girls(esp beautiful girls) who dress really sexy or slutty then give you a cold glare when they see you admiring/staring at them.

5. Time to get ready. My gawd it always takes girls forever to get ready.

6. Oh yeah and head games.

7. Girls who wear grandma panties *shudders* why?

-Nagging is the worst thing ever

-mood swings
-thinking men can read their minds when we most obviously cant

i tried to keep this list as fresh as possible, but some had to be stressed to show a complete consensus from the male community that its annoying

roofles

-I generally dislike it when anyone follows whats currently trendy just because its whats trendy. However, since (in my opinion) so much more marketing bull is aimed towards girls, they tend to do it more...I could be wrong about that bit...

-Headgames aka indirect approach

-Preoccupation with getting old

-Girls who are overtly sexual in their mannerisms/dress style yet deny it/act as if they are not

F: "nothing"
M: "No seriously I can see something is bothering you, tell me..."

-Sensitivity: girls always want guys to be sensitive, yet when you find a sensitive guy, you're not sensitive back, infact commonly the opposite.

-expectation that when you break up with a guy that he immediately lose all feelings for you. (which has been too common in my experience)

-inability to make a decision: last time i had a fight with my girlfriend i talked to a friend (my ex) about it... the conversation was as such:
"i don't have any idea what the hell is wrong with her... she said a bunch of stuff about how she 'could never love me as much as i love her'.. but i don't expect anything from her"

"that's what makes it harder"

"what?"

"she needs to know what you want?"

"what am i supposed to tell her how to feel?!"

:-d

Fallon

took this from another thread
Yelling at us for not doing this, then not doing it themselves. I myself am a person who does like to feel appriciated every once and awhile without having to support everyone else. I've been yelled at so many times for not doing anything nice or whatever when I've never gotten anything in return. Now mind you, I'd usually do something nice soon after.

Rand007

Lack of confidence - you're smart and beautiful, your sexy and attractive and nothing I say can make you feel that way unless you want to. Please act like that toward me, take initiative, and sometimes believe me when I compliment you.

Head games - please say what you're thinking, if you don't know exactly I'm willing to sit here and talk through it with you.

My loyalty - I love you and I always will, my feelings aren't the basis of my love for you, my commitment and loyalty to you are.

Not understanding a guys sexual need - I feel extremely loved, and sexy and attractive when you want to have sex with me. If I'm having a bad day and you have sex with me my day becomes incredibly better. You have an amazing power to effect how intimate I feel toward you and how my attitude is, use that power to show me love.

Women are amazing though all in all

Some really odd complaints here. Some men just seem to want to have a guy with a vagina as a partner. That can be arranged for you know.

i second that.....

i can deal with all the other little issues, but fucking headgames takes the lead in this catagory.

Its been said already but again, say what you feel! If something is wrong, tell me. I hate it when there is obviously a problem and I ask and get "No, nothings wrong I'm fine." then three days later you finally tell me why you are pissed that I did or didn't do X thing. For crying out loud if I had known three days ago maybe we could have worked it out and saved ourselves three days of "mystery misery"! Also, when we are supposed to leave at 7:00 I like to LEAVE AT 7:00! Not all women do this but I've been with my fair share that believe 7:00 means 7:30. I also like to plan my excursions and go from point A to point B, don't wait until we are on the way somewhere to tell me "Oh, we need to stop by the bank and go by the shop and etc etc." Here's another, Don't make me initiate sex all the time. I can't read your mind and if you don't let me know you're in the mood I might choose to watch Robocop instead of going beggin' fer some lovin' I might not get! Yet another, Don't make plans for me without telling me or assume that because you enjoy something I will too. Example: I come home from a hard days work and I hear "You need to get ready I told Jan and Mike we would come over for dinner" Great. I'm exhausted and now get to make unexpected chit chat when all I want to do is collapse. Or "I told the group we'd love to go camping and canoeing this weekend, we'll have to leave early Saturday! It'll be so fun! NO it won't. And at last, I know its hard but try to get over the bad self image/weight thing and don't put ME in a bad spot. Example: You say you are fat. I say no, I love you and you are beautiful. You then say "No I'm not, I'm fat!" I say "Sweetie, I think you are gorgeous!" You say "Look at me! How can you say I"m not a fat pig!" I finally tire of this and say "Look, Honey I think you are beautiful, maybe you could lose a few pounds but you are fine to me. You then burst out crying and say "I KNEW you thought I was a pig!" If you don't want an eventual honest answer then leave it alone. When you poke the tiger long enough and get a reasonable honest answer don't blow it out of proportion. Also, more blow jobs.

Whew.... that felt great.

I don't meet enough of them.

Oh, and "nasty-smelling pussy". Don't like that either. Good smelling pussy means "scentless" in my experience. Only met one of those, and I blew it... as it were.

Average_Joe

Tell us what's bothering you....we can tell if there's a problem, but we are really shitty at guessing.

If something someone else did makes you angry, don't transfer it on us. Don't say "I'm mad at you", act angry at us, and then tell us that your boss yelled at you at work 24 hours later. We will comfort you if we know what happened.

Understand that guys like to fix problems. If you only are looking for sympathy for something that can be fixed or corrected, don't get mad at us for the lack of sympathy. Talk to your mother or girlfriends if that's what you need.

Make a decision and stick to it.
Friday: "let's go bowling tomorrow".
Saturday: " I don't want to go bowling. What do you want to do?"
"How about a movie?"
"Nah."
"How about the beach?"
"Naaah."
"How about dinner? Dancing? See a band? Ice skating? Milking a cow?"
"No. No. No. Maybe...well, no."
Two hours after arguing and getting angry, we go bowling and she has a great time!
AAAAHHHHHHHGGGGGGGGGG!

We love you and we just want to make you happy! It's more important than our own happiness!

When we are quiet we are not contemplating our relationship or love for you. We are concerned about men stuff like needing an engine overhaul or that basket we missed in the YMCA finals.

Thanks for letting me rant.
