"On another forum" the above question was asked recently, and one of the most amusing response was that he'd started a thread that was more contentious or dangerous than gun control :eek:!


I'd say whatever your views on the subject, that for my mother and father at least, she kept him on his mettle by providing him with the mental stimulation of whatever argument she might have started, so was actually doing him a lot of good (I think he came to recognise this too :) ).
 

Perhaps the question should be, "Do men get pleasure from provoking women?"

Do I personally like to annoy men? Why of course, men often make it so easy to annoy them...so why not?
 
hahaha.. that's funny dkay... :D


But in answer to the question.. for me..I can't be bothered. It's like shooting fish in a barrel...got bored with it a long time ago..lol
 

Male thinking and female thinking are completely different.

The brains must be completely structured differently.

For instance. I just love the decorating in a home with the female touch.

It's something foreign to the male concept. Men just seem happier with whatever is there.

I doubt a male has ever gone to a paint store with a paint chip chart and wanting the exact colour.

They were considering a female Pope but when they interviewed they found out that they wanted the Sistine chapel painted over because it was 'dated'.

I believe the colour suggested was teal or something which men call blue.

I routinely do exactly that when I'm touching up around my house or my rent houses, so you doubt incorrectly.

As far as the original question posed, I find it sexist and irrelevant to anything in my world.

That is such a weird question. I really don't get it. But then I'm not married, so who knows? :playful:

Luckily not my question as explaining in OP, and I agree with whoever said it was a bit corny, but here is the full post which accompanied original question:

"~This is something I wondered about when I was younger in New York City. It was late Autumn or early winter. I was going to go someplace with a female friend. I was wearing some kind of shirt and a pair of jeans. This was the conversation that followed.

Her: "Don't wear that!"
Me: "What?"
Her: "The jeans."
Me: "What's wrong with them?"
Her: "I don't like them!"
Me: "I'm the one who has to wear them!."
Her: "I'm the one who has to look at them!"
So she went into my closet and picked out a pair of tan pants. She said, Here, wear these." I figured if it will make her happy and shut her up, it was worth it. So I wore them.

Several months later, it was the new year. We were going to go somewhere, and I remembered what happened one time, so I played it safe and put on the tan pants. Here was the conversation that followed:

Her: "Don't wear those!"
Me: "What?"
Her: "Those pants."
Me: "What's wrong with them?"
Her: "I don't like them!"
Me: "I'm the one who has to wear them!"
Her: "I'm the one who has to look at them!" Now I began to ask myself, "Haven't I had this argument before?"

I remembered that of course that I did, and that I had it with her, just a few months ago. So I brought it to her attention. Here was the conversation that followed:
Me: "Wait a minute! Last year you told me to wear these pants, when I was wearing a pair of jeans! Last year you said that you liked these pants!"
Her: "Yes, last year I did like those pants. But this is, this year! And this year, I don't like them!"

It was one of those moments that a poor man beats his head against a wall. When a man finally understands a woman, she changes the rules just to confuse the man again."
 
i wont lie here hhahaha ...
yes ofc we do -makes our life fallfield :D coz mean are so easy to annoy lol:eek:
 
I would be very skeptical about a guy posting such a thing on a message board. For one, I would wonder what is wrong with him that he can't get over this and move on and instead decides that is how all women are. Maybe we should be questioning what kind of person this guy is and HIS own personal problems with women.

On the other hand, we don't know what the thread was actually about, do we? Maybe it was for listing on the kind of annoyances men AND women have had with each other. Then maybe it might make more sense and not sound as questionable.
 
My man and I have been together for decades and we often playfully make fun of each other in so many ways.
It makes life more interesting. We’ve been together for almost 30 years and poking fun of each other adds humour and playfulness to our relationship. We do it so often that we are used to it.
It takes boredom out of the marriage
Our friends do it also but not as much as we do.

Men and women have been poking fun of each other for centuries now. It’s all in good fun; or at least it SHOULD be.

Except I wouldn't consider that described as "annoying" which is where I was coming from as far as my answer was concerned. Being playful I would agree with. And also you would be doing it to each other. The OP was about "women" being annoying to men.

Okay, back to my movie.

Well he IS a man after all :shrug:
Exactly my point :laugh:
 
I don’t believe in absolutes. There are as many differences within the sexes as between them. I love to play, not interested in anything that would manipulate or be toxic to any man. Some men love to bake, decorate etc, some women hate it, some men love to dress up, some women don’t. One rule does not fit all. My father was a successful interior designer for firms.
 
Light hearted responses mostly

There were mainly light hearted response to the man's question on the other forum, and perhaps that is the way it should be taken, as most have here, and you'll probably realise if you take a look at the scenario he posted at the same time, which I somehow managed to mangle when I tried to cut and paste it above.
