What Women Hate
Bassy

Let's face it, guys. Some things most men do drive women so crazy that we hear about them in sitcoms, tv commercials, stand up comedy routines, movies - you name it. Sometimes men have to do things that just drive women crazy! The truth is that if you can keep from doing some of these things, life will be a lot more peaceful with your relationship. Not in a relationship? Well, a lot more women will be willing to risk that second date if you try to hold back on some of these habits and things we do. Why not start with things around the home? Of course we all know that women hate it when we leave the toilet seat up. And most men have been known to leave the toothpaste tube open pretty much all the time. If you add to this that a lot of guys out there leave wet trails from the shower to the living room to where ever they go till they dry (with a damp towel often at the end of the trail) and you have a few things that drive most women insane. While we're on the bathroom, men have been known to leave whiskers lying in the sink after a shave, hair and nail clippings on the floor or the counter, and other little pieces of hair and body parts around - and can you blame women for not wanting to deal with it? Probably a lot of fights could be averted by cleaning the sink and the counter after we shave, clip and trim.

Finally we move out of the bathroom to the kitchen and the rest of the house. Ever notice that most guys drink out of the milk container that the rest of the house uses? Women notice. Our mothers, sisters, girl- friends, wives all hate it when we drink out of that milk or juice carton but for some reason, we keep doing it. Maybe that's why, or maybe men like doing things the easy way.

Men also seem to make noises that drive women up the walls. Farting, belching, burping, and all sorts of bodily noises have been known to emit while three guys are drinking beer watching a game. But when you do it around your girlfriend, wife, or date, you are asking for trouble. Women really appreciate it when we keep these natural functions more ...er... discreet. And now we get to one of most women's least favorite things that men do - adjusting their privates in public, or in front of the women. Also scratching. It is true that no etiquette book smiles upon scratching or moving around ones privates. But guys just can't seem to help them- selves - they can't wait to get to a bathroom or other private spot to adjust their parts.

Women are a little more squeamish about anything below the waist and above the thighs, and pretty much all women are upset by this scratching and adjusting. If you want to really scare off a new date that you like, just start moving your privates around in front of her. But if you hope to go out with her again, best keep your hands out of the entire area while she can see you.

Now here's the granddaddy of all things that most men do and women hate: looking at other women while you're with your girlfriend/wife. First off, I guess we all have to admit that guys do this without even thinking about it. You see a hot looking woman in a tiny dress and you are bound to notice her.

It's genetics - we're made to notice sexy girls.

On the other hand, if your head jerks around and your eyes bulge each time an aerobics instructer in a miniskirt walks by, perhaps you can curb your physical reaction a little. Maybe just allow your eyes to move, but keep the rest of you pointing forward. The woman you're with won't be half as annoyed with you if you keep your jaw from dropping and you can keep from squealing like a pig, your girlfriend won't be as likely to avoid inviting you to her place for the next month. If you don't like to fight, you might not want to pretend you're listening to the woman you're with while you're actually listening to the game. Women are big fans of communication - faking communication to them is worse than faking an orgasm! So if you fake it, make sure to fake it so well that they won't find out.

Most of the time, guys are just plain more casual than women, but some- times it might make sense to tone it down a little when we're with them.
