Either I'm a more rare breed of man than I thought..or he doesn't have a clue. No doubt if he has a girl, they hooked up on that computer next to him...and that's likely the only place they hook up. Has he ever actually even sniffed a real woman before?

Thank you for your thoughts Al!! Unfortunately, I beg to differ. I think he is not only funny, but he does make some decent points about men. Some of the points that he mentioned that I have seen practiced by men are as follows:

If a guy teases you, he likes you. If you go back in time to grade school, you will notice that boy’s tease/play fight with girls that they like. This is one of the first principles mentioned in the movie “He’s just not that into you. “ Even later on in life, men and women play games where teasing is a huge indication that one is attracted to the other.

He jokes about how when women talk to men, all men hear is “yada, yada, yada, blah, blah, blah.” I believe that a great majority of men tend to not listen to women have to say…people say it’s because women speak too much, but I’m assuming there are many reasons men tend to block women out.

Guys tend to become possessive in their relationship. I know these are all generalizations but I know A LOT of men that believe they “own” the woman they are with. Maybe, it’s a pride/ego thing, but it does exist to a certain degree.

Describing a women as “beautiful” versus “cute, hot, sexy, pretty” indicates that he really likes you. I believe that a man that calls you “hot” or “sexy” sees you for your physical (exterior) qualities, but should he utter the word beautiful, I see it as being so much deeper that what the eye can see.

Guys are not mind readers…that’s obviously true?! No one is!!

Shopping is not a sport. So true! Most men do not enjoy shopping with women. You can see that at any shopping center/mall you walk through!

Guys hate it when you talk about your ex. I hear this ALL the time!!! It makes sense that if I, as a woman, do not want to hear about a mans experiences with his Ex, he more likely that not does not want to listen to stories about my past.

Guys DO cry. I’ve seen it so I know this is true!!

“Never-mind,” “Forget it,” “Whatever.” These are all thing men do not like to hear. They are like fighting words from women’s mouths.

These are some of the points he makes which, although generalizations, have a great deal of truth to them.

Thanks!
