9 Things Guys Think They Know About Girls But Don't by mirexxx(f): 5:25pm On Feb 16, 2015
Here are some common misconception you guys have about ladies.






1. We use PMS as a “get out of jail
free” card.
Guys seem to think that we use our period as an
excuse to get out of everything. I have heard
countless—I repeat, COUNTLESS—guys complain
about the fact that women get a “get out of jail
free card” during that time of month. These same
guys complain about how we constantly bitch
about everything. They think PMS is only a
psychological frame of mind. OK, there is no
pretty way to say this next part: When you are
bleeding for days from your womb, you have a
right to complain. PMS is a real thing, and the
pain that comes with it is also very real.


2. Only sluts enjoy sex.
This may cause you to gasp in shock, but women
enjoy sex—if it’s done right—just as much as men
do. Why is there such a stigma against women
having casual sex or one-night stands and
enjoying it? Women are usually placed into two
categories in the eyes of a man. Either she is a
Madonna (a representation of Mary, not the pop
singer) or she is a LovePeddler, which is self-
explanatory. Since when have there been only
two types of women? Men want to marry a lady
in public and a lady in the bedroom; however,
once they commit to this they lose the sense of
excitement his wife first gave him as a
“Madonna.” This is absolute bullsh*t; women are
neither carbon copies of the “Madonna” nor the
“LovePeddler.” We can be ladies and like to have casual
sex at the same time—mind-boggling, I know.


3. We cry too much.
Yes, women have feelings and yes, we choose to
express them. But that does not mean that is all
we do. We are not walking tear ducts ready to
burst at any moment—we do hold some self-
control. Yes, we do have unreal amounts of
estrogen flowing through our veins, but that does
not mean we automatically turn into
uncontrollable sprinkler systems every time we
see a wide-eyed toddler.


4. Girls only like bad boys.
The widely known saying, “Girls only like bad
boys,” goes hand-in-hand with “good guys finish
last.” Most of the time girls gravitate toward bad
guys because they are simply more interesting
than the fedora-clad losers who inevitably get
friend zoned. The reason why we divert away
from these “good guys” is simple: They. Are.
Boring. You need to step up your game and play
hard-to-get at times. No one—guys included—is
interested in a significant other who just kisses
their ass and agrees with everything they say. So
if you are one of the “good guys” that gets
friend zoned, just think about altering your
approach. And for the love of God, ditch that
fedora.


5. Our worlds revolve around you.
I realize that some of you may take this a bit hard,
but gentlemen, our worlds do not revolve around
you. For you Facebook stalkers and Twitter
junkies out there, please understand that not
every post is about you. Women have lives
outside of our romantic endeavors (who would
have thought?), and those preconceived notions
men have about women pining over some
“Prince Charming” all day are ignorantly false.
Our “I miss you” posts probably do not pertain to
the fact that you failed to text back. Our goldfish
may have died. We could be reminiscing over
Ghirardelli’s peppermint bark that only comes out
once a year.


6. Rom-coms are all we watch.
Hilariously enough, women do not always flock
to premiers of rom-coms like seagulls to a lone
French fry. We actually have a variety of tastes
when it comes to films. A run-of-the-mill rom-
com is great once in a while, but sometimes we
want to indulge in the magnificent bloodshed of
300 or the classic tale of Psycho. This assumption
about our singular tastes is like assuming men
only watch action movies. But for some reason,
the romantic comedy stereotype attached to
women is harder to shake. Nobody would eat the
same food every day. Once in a while, rom-coms
do not cut it and we need a little brutality,
suspense, or action.


7. When we get dressed up and go
out, it’s to get laid.
“Girls’ Night Out” is usually thought of as an event
where a group of ladies dress in short dresses,
drink fruity drinks, and laugh loudly to gain the
attention of any men within earshot. Granted,
there are some nights where women go out to get
laid; however, we are not testosterone-pumped
buffoons always on the lookout for the next piece
of ass. Sometimes we like to dress up and go out
with the girls just for fun. The fact of the matter is
when a woman dresses up—regardless of the
occasion—her self-esteem comes racing out of its
potato-chip-laden bed and puts on its Miss
America smile. We like to feel pretty and we like
to hang out with our lady friends. It really is that
simple. Believe it or not, but often men have
nothing to do with us wanting to feel good about
ourselves. Hence, cut the lame pick-up lines and
leave us to our girls talk.


8. Powerful women are bitchy.
Women can never win in this situation. If we are
sensitive in our position of power, then we are
perceived as the “typical woman,” AKA weak. But
if we exhibit a professional attitude, we are
automatically labeled as a “bitch.” Why is it so
hard to believe that women can act in a
professional manner while dealing with
professional issues? We should not have to give
second chances to those who slack off, and we
surely do not need to bring cookies to business
meetings. We are not being bitches—we are just
doing our job.


9. If we’re nice to you, we’re flirting
with you.
One of the most annoying things a man can do is
assume a girl is flirting when she is merely being
friendly. I cannot give enough examples of when
I was genuinely nice to a guy and I ended up
getting a phone number on a napkin. I
understand that women can be vague about their
intentions, but just because we smile at you or
make eye contact does not mean we are sexually
interested in you. It is hard for a lot of people to
understand that women can have men as friends.
Things like “sexual tension” are usually brought
up. Even though the male side would more than
likely sleep with their lady friends if they had the
chance, women genuinely like a bit of male
company to keep their lives interesting.
Testosterone-driven beings are sometimes fun to
hang out with. It’s that simple. So please stop
projecting your sexual fantasies on us just because
we happened to smile your way.

Women cry...... a lot.


We know it, and we are not wrong about it. Fact.


-A lady asks you to help her do something urgent and you decline for one reason or the other.....next thing, she turns on d waterworks and you are guilt tripped into changing your stance.

- they are watching a romantic comedy and it gets to s end where the guy has to perfunctorily kiss the lady,.....next thing they all start sniffing and crying.

- at a wedding ceremony when d husband is to kiss d bride, 99% of d ladies will be dabbing their eyes with their handkerchief

- they see a cute little baby, next thing they start crying.

- they make a mistake at work and are in serious trouble..... next thing they start crying. I have seen this at least twice.

the examples are endless. women and unnecessary tears go hand in hand.
