Top 5 Annoying things about Men

Men do somethings that annoy or just plain confuse us women. I mean every women has dealt with a man and had at least 5 pet peeves that she could point out right off the bat. But you know us women..We tolerate and Ignore (usually) After some careful thought and consideration, plus I observed my boyfriend for this article. I thought of a Top 5 list of the most annoying things men do.


He doesn't even care how small the screen is.

Number 5: TV is mans best friend

This one is for sure something I've seen my dad do. Sitting there watching TV practically glued to the screen. Is what your watching really that interesting? The worst part is when they are pretending like the are actually listening to you talk while watching their precious Football. The way the usually reply is with various grunts and an occasional "mhm that's terrible" or "that's great honey" based on your tone of voice. At least their sense of a woman's tone is useful..Or else a lot of men would be sleeping on that couch 24/7. Speaking of their sitting on the couch with chip crumbs covering them and a glazed over look that brings me to number 4...something that goes had in had with this scene

Number 4: Is that your hand in your pants..or are you just happy to see me?

For sure the first one..Now this is something I just can't understand. What is the issue? Why do you guys itch so terribly bad? I don't even know what to say. I'm just sitting there minding my own business until I hear this scratching sound. Its not the sound of someone itching there scalp..Sounds like a hand full of crotch (Hope I'm not being to vulgar) I think all men have a problem they need to get checked out. That much itch can't possibly be good. (No picture needed..The mental image is good enough)


What ya thinkin?

Number 3: How do you turn off your brain like that!?

Us women can't stop thinking and just because we can't stop we act like men can't either. WRONG. I have seen it happen. My ex did it all the time, If we sat in one place for to long all he would just turn it off. I looked over at him once and I asked him what he was thinking (cause his he looked kind of dead) and he said "nothing". I didn't believe him at first. Until I looked again an hour later and he really looked like nothing was in there. Recently scientist's new theory is that people might not remember as much from their childhood because their brains weren't as developed then. People say that women mature faster then men. Maybe our brains do to and that could also be why men don't remember your birthday or anniversary. But to all the guys who stumble upon this article: DONT GET MAD! Its just a thought I never said this was true proven fact.

The truth is its going to take a long time to figure out why this is. And If any man would lie to disagree and say that they never have had a thought less moment, please do! I don't like the thought of someone being able to stop thinking as much as someone else. It sounds unhuman life.


"Crayons";)

Number 2: Can you control your self for at least 5 seconds 5,4,3,2,1..

Yes it's a natural thing, and it doesn't feel that bad at all either. But is there anyway you can control your urges?. I don't know if I can say the actual word on this site (it said no vulgarity or something) so I'll just use the replacement they used in Sex in the City "Coloring" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N6DBT_ONAjE). You know sometimes its not that I don't want to color its just that I'm to tired to color! So put the crayon away and sleep next to me! I think my boyfriend might be a coloring addict...He just never wants to stop. And women I think you will agree when I say I'm pretty sure we want it more. Like its obvious that we want it more. We just know to be civilized we have learned how to control the urge. And there are so many reasons why we need to control it.

If we don't control our urges we are referred to as harlots or someone who gets around a lot (I'm cleaning up my language but you know the real words.) And no matter what anyone says those words sting. But with men they get praised. And sometimes I think that they get praised because obviously they are just wild creatures in the first place (No offense)

Anyway I got off topic. And women when it comes to your man there is nothing wrong with giving into the urge sometimes and coloring until he doesn't want the crayon to come out of the box for hours.


Looks harmless enough.

Number 1: Getting up to go pee..Ending up bathing in toilet water. ugh!

I don't care if you love your hand down your pants and the TV..But please PUT THE TOILET SEAT DOWN!! There is nothing worse then getting up in the middle of the night- From a steamy dream about Leonardo Dicaprio or Shia- and realizing you have to go pee but once u sit down all the sudden your in the toilet you are in it..And it is the sickest feeling.

Its simple men. Just pull up the seat, get your business done, then put the seat back down. DO NOT leave it UP. Just put it down and the gap between men and women won't even be that wide anymore.

NIce post Bredavies, you have pointed out and summed it nicely. I donot think These peeves are only with us women. Infact every woman would have dealt with such peves one way or other.

Funny read! I enjoyed reading this and you sounded just like my EX! It's because of gripes like these that I want in the future, my own urinal (and I believe all the other dudes will agree with me). Great start so far! Keep it up! Should you need advice or have a question about Hubpages let me know, as I will do my best to help. Ciao!

LOL I'm with BC on no.5 so it's never an issue. On the others, the trick is finding that person that is not only interested in the things you are but to be interested in the things they are. My fiance and I know each other very well but we also like to experiment with new things, like places to eat and places to visit. She was very happy when I suggested we learn ball room dancing and I was very happy when she told me she was going to take pole dancing lessons. We keep it interesting and we always have something to talk about.

haha these things that annoy women

are the 5 things that make women annoying

Why must we put the toilet seat down?

Would it hurt for women to put it up if we put it down, compromise.

Number 4 don't know how to explain it but hey it happens, guys need to adjust sometimes too. haha

You should watch Mens vs Womens Brains on youtube. This guy sums it up pretty well about how mens brains are categorized and include a nothing box. Sounded good to me!

So true, so true! I especially love the one about men being able to turn their brains off...my boyfriend has told me he never really knows what he's thinking about, which as women is something we can't comprehend. Crazy!

Great hub! I'll definitely be checking back for more!

Your title alone was enough to get my attention! Your Hub is very true. I think many women would be able to add to that list as well. You have a great sense of humor!

Why do men have to be responsible for your bathroom seat? Isn't it just as easy to take a look at the toilet to see if the seat is up or down? Is that too much to ask?

Furthermore, what would you rather have...a toilet with the seat up or a toilet with piss all over the seat that is down. You know the seat being down only reduces the area in which we have to aim.

Bredavies profile image

Bredavies  says:

Umm not if it is the middle of the night!

And I am not asking for guys to leave it down while they get their buisness done. I would never ask that because some men can't aim. :)

Very funny posts. Especially the part about turning off their brains. Its like that Malcom in the Middle show where Reece's mind would just go blank and nobody could talk to him

Hxprof  says:

I liked reading this. The title itself reminds me of 'Men are from Mars and Women are from Venus'. For every peeve you list here (and there's no denying that every man is "guilty" of some of these) there are things that men wonder about women also. We're so different. For me, I'm glad God made us different.

Hi!

Here is a response in defense of my brothers, cutie.

All of you guys responses were great! Any guys should feel free to make a hub about women and I will gladly read. I was really disappointed by the wsp guy. And his title on his attack hub didn't make any sense!

But not everyone is going to be supportive of what you write. :)

Good observations and a lot that men and women can relate to. Hands in the crotch and TV slouch with chip crumbs--so true. Just imagine living with one 24/7.

Seems the writer missed something important since over 55& of the households are single MOMs rearing their man child I wonder why they aren't training them the correct way. Seems it is not as important when little Johnnie is so cute. Sorry ladies the numbers puts the ball in YOUR court.
