How some men (maybe just the ones Iâve ever met) canât find something when itâs in front of their eyes. âIâve looked everywhere for my shirtâ, what the one thatâs in front of you right there?

How women can be so naturally beautiful and yet so deeply insecure about how they look.

Just how women cope with the physiology of being a woman. Periods? Pregnancy? Even sex - something inside your body? For fun? I would not do well in a woman's body.
Edit - To be clear; I am amazed that they deal with things that would derail me entirely as just a part of life. Seriously ladies, simply existing as a woman seems like a lot of extra work. You deserve more respect for that simple fact.

Why men have this âi hate my wifeâ mentality. Especially older men. The whole âball and chainâ thing is weird to me. My husband and I text all day, every day and one of his married coworkers couldnât believe we can text all day and still be able to have things to talk about when we are together. Sorry we actually enjoy each other. Lmao.

Why so many women insist on buying and wearing uncomfortable shoes just baffles me.
I once walked to a work meeting with a female colleague and by the time we got there her feet were literally bleeding. She needed bandaids. When I asked why she would wear such uncomfortable shoes, her reply was âI didnât think I would walk this far todayâ.

I understand this doesnât go for all women, but how come with some girls it seems like their entire friend group hates each other. They constantly try to one up each other and shit talk every opportunity they get. Like why are you hanging out with people if you donât like them?

How does the balls and dick not hurt when you are running. Like my boobs hurt like hell if I donât wear a sports bra. Like, is just flopping around there or how? I know there are special active underwear but do everyone use those?

How can men simultaneously be cool-headed, rational, ultra-focused and just incredibly cool at work and be emotionally immature, toxic pieces of work prone to tantrums that would put a toddler to shame in their romantic relationships? In my experience, if a woman is a cunt at work, she will be a cunt at home as well. And if she's reliable and a team player at work, you can count on them in private.

What compels women to even consider having children. I wake up every day grateful that I canât get pregnant. There is absolutely *nothing* about the prospect of going through pregnancy, dealing with the sleepless nights, the crying, the skull crushing noise of toddlers, the expenses, and then being tied down for ~18 years that could make it worth it for me. I am tapped out after 15 minutes of being near my nephews⌠having to *live* through that every single day? Holy shit.

How women just accept not having usable pockets. It seems like it should have been a self correcting issue but I guess women just want to carry their phones in their hands everywhere.

Why men pretend to like women they actually donât like. I see so many men saying that they like natural women, women who donât wear makeup or have had surgery. But then when you look at the women they actually go for, they are the exact opposite to what they just said. Classic barbie girls.
Why not just admit that you like women who have had surgery and wear a lot of makeup.

Signals about being interested.
"Of course I've been madly in love with you for years. Couldn't you tell by how I've been generally nice to you and smiled your way twice?"
Also:
"Just because we had a fun series of dates and had sex a bunch of times, I don't know where you got the delusion that I would ever take a call from you again, never mind be your girlfriend."

Why most men need a situation flipped on them to understand and have empathy. Why does it always have to start with âimagine if xyz happened to youâ to have them comprehend
