I recently wrote an article about things that really irritate women about men. It was easy information to compile, because I practically live at happy hour with the girls, and I work in an office with quite a few women. As it goes, boys make up a good 70% of our conversations. Maybe I’m not proud of that fact, but it is what it is. A lot of my guy friends picked up the piece and thought it contained some pretty useful insight. They also wanted the chance to do ladies the same service. During a night of intramural kickball, I started asking guys in the league what really bugged them most about girls. While I left out some of the more inappropriate comments (ie: girls with shallow vaginas??), I was able to compile a solid list of 17 things that irritate guys about girls.

Enjoy and tell me what you think! Are the boys being fair? Comment below!

I really don’t think Jennifer Lopez has aged at all in the last 15 years. It’s absolutely phenomenal. I’m pretty sure she could still show up to an award show in a dress like this and absolutely make everyone else comparatively speaking look like hideous trolls. She must exfoliate with diamonds and the blood of dolphins.

Alas, the rest of the magazine wasn’t nearly as festive as J.Lo or her boobs. It’s, of course, holiday themed, and I don’t know about you, but when I think of holidays I think of stress, excessive consumerism, disappointments, and drama. So yes, I’m a total Grinch. All of these articles making it sound like a perfect holiday season is actually attainable just made me cranky and cynical.

What also made me cranky? Glamour got a dude (a writer from The Daily Show) to respond to readers’ inquiries as to why men do what they do, and I think most of his answers are sugarcoated and avoid the root of the problem. Read More »

It is no secret that it doesn’t take much to freak out a guy in a relationship. I once dated a guy who would ask me to come over and hang out, but then go nuts and say we were spending too much time together.What?

Anyways, in efforts not to be crazy or overbearing or, “let’s start saving for our grandchildren,” I (and I am sure many girls like me) tend to hold back. I am very cautious about getting too serious too fast and scaring the boy away. I know not to introduce him to my entire extended family after our first date. I know not to get his name tattooed on my ring finger after our first sex sesh. Those things are obvious.

But what about making plans for the near future? Is that too much? Let’s ask the boys…. Read More »
