female mania and behaviour in the shops

    well well well....what a day, what a day!


    I was in a shopping centre in Belfast and a Northern Irish boy band called "Dangermen" were doing a free gig. There were loads of teenage girls going absolutely mental for this group, some of them were crying, some had made posters for them, some were basically climbing over other girls to get a better view. The three guys in the band weren't even good looking, spotty awkward looking types.

    Thus, CAN SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN TO ME THIS FEMALE MANIA THING? guys don't act like this with female popstars. The same applies for strippers, a group of females at a hen night will all but rape the male stripper, guys just sit around looked vaguely embarrassed, WHY THIS DISTINCTION IN GENDER BEHAVIOUR?

    Anyway I carried on, went to an atm and did a bit of food shopping, in queues for both the atm and the food shopping I noticed more distinctions in gener behaviour. Guys, all of them, were quicker, have the crad or cash ready, do the business, move on. Women on the other hand often waited until they were first in the queue before looking through their various purses/bags to fish out the necessary card/cash...then most of them would get out some kind of voucher or value card aswell and then when paying they took an age to sort out the correct change(thinking they were doing you a favour but in reality taking a lot longer as they take a coin at a time from their purses), then on completion of the transaction they would very slowly put everything back in its correct compartment/bag/holder/pocket/purse one at a time of a course, dilligently examine the receipt and move on, at the atm they always always did the same with bankcard and always always waited for the advice slip (as if hoping it would magically offer guidance on their personal lives - no ladies an advice slip just tells you your balance(financial), no real emotional advice offered) AGAIN PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS DIFFERENCE IN GENDER BEHAVIOUR, I have no problem with people being careful, taking their time, looking for discounts etc. - each to their own but if one is in a rush, it can be a tad frustrating.

    Finally I have an irrational dislike for women in men's sections of clothes stores, what the f**k are they doing there? I don't linger around female clothes stores. OK on the odd occassion if they are buying a rpesent for hubby/boyfriend/father then fine go ahead BUT EVERY TIME I am shopping for clothes in a mens section there are women snooping aroud. What's worse are the helpless little mammy boys who can't go shopping without their other half's advice/guidance etc?

    Anyway I learnt a lot on my shopping trip.

    do you agree with my thoughts?

    Definitely more for Clearisil and Hormones, the only thing some grown women act like this for is Twilight.....and that's just creepy. Haha. At least the first half of the post should be there!
