Strange Things That MEN Make You Do!!!!

    Seeing as the lads are ranting about us ladies I think it's time for this thread!! And no not sexually related things. :rolleyes:;)

    My OH doesn't generally make me do things as we're both super laid back and I think we work well together. For example, he hates laundry, I don't mind it. I hate dishes, he doesn't mind that.

    But if I start saying something but forget where I was going with the point (happens alot, terrible memory) he nearly forces me to try and remember, even if it's about something stupid!

    Also he makes me pinky promise things all the time cause he knows I won't break that!

    Oh and he never lets me make my own tea cause I always put in too much sugar. It's a positive but I needed to make my rant longer. :)

    You girls?? :)

    I was just thinking about starting a thread like this myself, but then I realised that none of my exes ever made me do anything.

    Except for one time when we had to drive around for ages looking for a place instead of just asking for directions.

    Ha ha ha yeah it took me ages to come up with something actually and even they are silly.

    Thread fail imo. :rolleyes: But would be interesting if any girls had/have fellas who can be as narky as some women.

    I for one don't make my OH do anything really either, we both work around each other and simply work well as a team. lol sappy. :rolleyes::o

    Maybe I'll make stuff up.... :cool:

    Nope, women are just more influential...

    If you think you are making a woman do something, she probably actually wants to do it but has manipulated the situation so that you think she is doing you a favour!

    Things That Strange MEN Make You Do.

    I have to get it off my chest..


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 330 ✭✭Dammo


    "Pinky promise", eh? Hmmmm............

    Now you're going to tell me that has something to do with his little finger I suppose?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 63 ✭✭mig mag


    Strange things men make you do.....

    Wear uncomfortable underwear just coz it's sexy.

    Change the bed-sheats every week just coz he's greasy!

    Wash the bath down wen he's finished just coz he's hairy.

    Sick to death of that f**king toilet seat and the not flushing!!!

    Listening to women mates talking and it seems men can have more selective memories. You will oft hear a woman complain "but I told you that yesterday" and he looks like he has absolutely no clue what's what. Anniversaries can be a blind spot for many men too. They dont notice certain things. So the GF can get her hair done and nada. I knew one woman who went from brown to blonde and the BF noticed nada. Our ability to remember(or care about) that bitch/bastard of a mate/co worker that caused you stress a month ago is also generally lacking. Actually that can be a sensible adaptation. A bitch a week ago could be the new best friend today, so as a man its best to ignore it, plead ignorance and never ever agree with the label at the time.

    Rejoice in the awareness of feeling stupid, for that’s how you end up learning new things. If you’re not aware you’re stupid, you probably are.



  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,345 ✭✭✭landsleaving


    Men.


    We're so nice, we save threads where you complain about us.

    :pac::pac::pac:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,088 ✭✭✭NoDice


    Ha ha ha just realised how gay the pinky promising sounds alright I think its cute!! Oh boy.. :rolleyes::o

    Not all women are that demanding though! I haven't asked himself to do anything at all.

    Then again, he actually puts the toilet seat down after him.

    And he cleans the sink after shaving.

    And he does the dishes.

    And he picks up MY clothes from the floor! :D

    Women wear uncomfortable underwear because it makes them feel sexy. The same way that they wear shoes that severe their arteries. A man couldn't care less if you wore a black sack to bed... it's what's under it that we're interested in.

    That's not to say that we don't appreciate a bit of nice pakaging though. ;)

    Opening this can of worms; talking during sex. Yes, yes it feels good, stop asking me.

    Ah yeah but surely when you ask questions like "I'm the best you've ever had, tell me I'm the best" you're expecting some sort of response?

    Okay, talking during sex can be really fun! ;) I once had a boyfriend though and he'd constantly say, "Are ya nearly there yet?". Most off-putting thing ever! Made me think of a child in a car, "We nearly there yet, mammy?"!

    That's his survival instinct kicking in. When women get to that "once a month" time, it's best to keep them away from sharp knives. You're being protected from a murder rap.

    If you think you are making a woman do something, she probably actually wants to do it but has manipulated the situation so that you think she is doing you a favour!

    Women are influential because women can use sex to get what they want, and occasionally they go 'North Korean Dictator'style crazy with the immense power that they wield, men however can't use sex to get what they want because, well, men just want sex….. We lack a decent bargaining chip I guess :(

    Oh and BTW, trust me on this, just leave the bloody seat up ...or suffer the (poorly aimed) consequences!

    I've found women do that for themselves. Tbh, it's nice and all but it's really just you putting another barrier over the bits I'm looking to get at.

    Jesus, bedsheets should be changed at least once a week anyway.

    To be fair, he's not making you do it. The amount of times i've had to unblock a hairy plughole because of a girl is unreal.

    We like it up, you like it down. In all fairness girls are the only ones that harp on about it. Most of you have arms. Whats the problem?

    I'll give you the flushing thing if he's leaving brown trouts or doesn't flush most of the time but if it's once in a while, cut the guy some slack. He's probably occupied with more worldly affairs.

    Haha exactly! Dirty talk and a little roleplaying is fun I definitely agree, but the "Are ya nearly there yet?" is very off-putting. Same as "Is that good for you?"

    Are ya nearly there yet? No, not anymore.

    Is that good for you? Might be if you'd just stay quiet.

    Wow I was asked do that but with moisturiser on my skin. The ex said it smelled lovely but tasted like poison! :o

    Thinking about it after reading another thread I was asked not to talk about guys hitting on me. I didn't really understand that one till he explained it cause I think the stories are either funny or I'm in a bad mood after being hit on and want to give out about it.

    Demanded threesomes or just said, "Mmm yeah, I'd love to have a threesome"? 'Cause if everyone you have ever dated has demanded threesomes, that is pretty strange!
