You make a comment to your man, and he groans, then gives you a look of annoyance. That has you wondering what it is that you said wrong. The real mystery to ponder is: How often have I said the same thing to him? There are things that men are tired of hearing. Here are 18 of them sourced from the males on Reddit.
Are You Sure You Can Handle the Kids?
“Because I’m a man, I’m automatically incapable of taking care of my own children on my own.”
Females have a motherly nature, and men have a fatherly side to them. Guys can take care of kids.
We Have a Maintenance Issue
“The car is making a funny noise, the furnace is making a funny noise, the sink is making a funny noise, our son is making a funny noise….”
Being born, a male doesn’t automatically make them Mr. Fixit.
On the Hunt for the Perfect Guy
“I hear the ‘real men’ and ‘men would’ and ‘men don’t’ statements far more than I’d like to say.”
When you find a real man, let us know how brilliant he is. Until then, stop making comparisons based on an imagined ideal.
Hang in there
“Why are you such a pessimist? Everyone meets their love. You just have to be patient!”
Meanwhile, a guy’s biological clock is ticking away…
Stop Looking
“There are no good guys around”
If that’s the case, why do women still search for the good guy?
You Don’t Know How Lucky You Are
“You, as a white Male, have so many privileges….”
People make their luck. Don’t think the color of your skin determines your life destiny.
Come on Dude
“Just man up!”
Aren’t men allowed to show emotions?
Start Being More Manly
“Being dictated to what masculinity is by a woman. If I went around telling women what femininity is ‘supposed’ to be, I’d get shut down immediately. It’s a blatant double standard.”
Ah, if you only knew what it was like to be masculine. How is that even defined objectively?
Did You Watch the Game Yesterday?
“Anything involving sports. I don’t follow any team. I did not see the game. I don’t give a **** what their stats are. I don’t care. Just because I’m a man doesn’t mean I have any interest in sports.”
There’s a shocker. Some men just aren’t into sports.
Time to Generalize
“‘All men are the same/trash’ – honestly, go fix your mental health and re-evaluate your life choices if that’s your motto.”
The truth hurts, but maybe you must analyze why you attract the wrong guys.
I Wish I Were a Man
“It’s easy being a man…. women have it so much harder.”
Statistically, on average, men die earlier than women. So who has the harder life?
Happy Days Ahead
“You’ll make someone really happy one day.”
Questions inspired by this are: “Who” and “When.”
Where’s the Empathy?
“Women’s problems are worst than yours. You don’t menstruate.”
Men have “men’s problems,” so stop being so one-sided.
You’re From the Dark Side
“That women are angels and men are demons. Heard first in church as a kid, now the whole world seems to think that way.”
Society does seem to have managed to attach a guilty label on guys.
It Doesn’t Cost So Much
“That I am tight/frugal/cheap. No, I just don’t see the value in paying £5 each on the ferry and then £20 each for something I could have made myself. I’ll gladly spend money when it makes more sense to me to do so.”
This is called “great money management.”
Can I Ask You Something?
“Does my bum look big in this?”
Please don’t set your man up by asking this. It’s awkward.
Did You Just Use the G Word?
“Other men say something is “gay” just cuz they don’t like it.”
Come right out a say that you hate something rather than feeling the need to throw out a subtle sarcasm.
Let’s Go Shopping
“That we are only as good as our wallet.”
Do you love your man or his money?
There you have it, a range of things you must stop saying to men. Every guy is different, so cease with the generalizations and stereotyping.
