That is IT... i admit... women are horrible.

[m1ldslide1]

A woman held a door for me today. I wasn't amazed at all - it happens all the time. I said thank you and would've forgotten about it.

inconsiderate,rude people come in both genders.

I always hold the door open for women. For men I'll hold it but let it go on my way in so they can get a hand on it. I honestly don't care if someone does it for me, but if I'm carrying loads of sh!t I expect any decent person to hold the door for me, as I'd do for them.

On another note: Stereotypically speaking, men are supposed to take care of women and be the "doer" (in more ways than one ). Men ask women out. It is rarely the other way around. Same story with door holding, paying the bills, providing a salary etc. It is only recently that some of these stereotypes are changing/have changed. Not that I support these stereotypes, that's just what they are/were/are less now.

Personally, I wish the dating stereotype would change. A lot of girls I know (and 1 that I asked out in High School) have no respect for the insane amount of balls it takes to ask a girl out (assuming the guy is genuinely looking for at least a mid-term relationship). Granted, you get better with experience, but it's still nerve-racking as hell until you get an answer.

So Lola, what are we "men" supposed to do with this women issue?

Women want more rights, custody of kids after divorces, basically control the bedroom issue....

what will men be 50 years from now?

I really don't know because i am still trying to figure it out myself. I always hope and try to think positive that there is good in everyone, it just takes longer for some than others to have that good come out.

As for men in 50 years... with the way things are going... they won't be needed for anything and women will procreate with test tube sperm? who knows. there will always be women who like and want the companionship and love of a man... others think that no man is good enough for them and they will spend their entire lives looking for him only to find they end up lonely.

I know it is wrong to make broad generalizations on both men and women. I should stop.

Actually, aren't us men supposed to be evolving out of the genome in a few million years?

Wow, what is it like to live back in the golden ages? Do you still prefer your wife to cook all of your food while wearing a poofy skirted dress and her pearl necklace?

Oh, wait! You said stereotypically speaking. So maybe this doesn't apply to you!

I never said I supported the stereotypes. That's just what they are.

Big breasted people come in both genders too but we're talking about which has the most

i can't say that i've noticed whether women or men do this more or not. i've seen plenty of both. an inconsiderate person is just that, inconsiderate, whether they are male or female.

I actually learned there's a rule of etiquette that goes with that--if they are within 8ft of you opening the door, you hold it for them.

Friend's uncle ran into a woman at the post office as she was coming out the door, and her purse dropped and spilled its contents all over. He was very apologetic, and gathered up as many items as he could hold to help put them back into her purse. She started yelling at him about how she didn't need any man to help her, she was more than capable of handling the mess herself. So he said, "Fine." Dropped everything on the floor again, and left.

Shens.

I haven't met the uncle, but I have met his brother (my friends' father). If the two are even the least bit alike, I don't doubt it happened for a second.

This morning, I went to a local coffee/bakery place for work. As i walked in, a very nice man held the door for me as he was leaving. He also held the door for the woman in front of me.

Now, she ordered her double frap half caf no sugar soy latte and waited for it, then i ordered my items as well. Her coffee and my stuff came up at about the same time and i was literally ONE step behind her as we walked out the door. She saw how much i was carrying, yet she pushed open the door and let it slam in my face as she walked out.
That irks me more than anything. She was a total bitch, just concerned about herself.

This is what I have noticed: Most women are B!TCHES. It is true. They are horrible and inconsiderate.
Why is this? is it the way were are programed? Has soceity taught us that we are supposed to be better than everyone else... other women included?

Because this annoys me so much, I have made it a point to be the exact opposite as this witch of a woman was today.

Has anyone else every noticed that most women are like this?

PS... I do not feel horrible at all that i am ragging on "my own kind".

Add men into that as well.

Most people are only self-focused today.

We have a new multi-million dollar building now...it's been 3 months in it. There are already spills everywhere, our huge lunchrooms (4 of them) are constantly a mess, and the restrooms are insane...our elevator covers only 2 floors yet looks like one that services a million (spills on the floor, on the walls, gum stuck in places, wrappers, I picked up a broken coffee mug one time...WTF did you just not know you dropped the mug full of coffee you were carrying???? I gave up using the elevator unless with someone using it)

The men's room I usually use always has it's sinks covered in water and soap, and sometimes toothpaste is spit on the mirror. I mean WTF?!? I hear the other 4 aren't better.

There was a pretty big debate in the senior management meeting (I am not in SM, but I work closely with them so I get good scoop) about whether we should pay for individual performance vs team. It seems the team way of paying is short-changing those busting tail and rewarding excessively those barely conscious.

We have a mixed-bag of young and old, highly paid and low paid (I think our min is about 24k/year max is probably around $100k a month+bonus)...today I was in the men's room and heard two? women carrying on in the lady's room...then they start slamming the stall doors (it was shaking the men's room walls) and making a commotion. I couldn't tell who they were and I wanted to wait to see, but I was preoccupied.

I later heard that restroom was trashed.

Seems like people see the need to be serious ***holes/b***hs to those to whom they are not sexually attracted. That wards off a lot of people and those are the type that'll be lonely for the rest of their life if they don't shape up. Goes for both men and women, I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels like this. I'm afraid I've veered off topic a bit since the OP was mainly about relations between those of the same sex. As you can see from the posts above it even happens between sexes for no good reason.

Lol me too.

Lola is the man!

Well, you know what I mean

 

[Hyperblaze]

I've encountered too many nice women to agree with such a broad generalization.

There are some women out there I wouldn't even waste my time saying hi too, but there are many others who I'd spend hours talking to, and having a blast doing so.

Well, I think we have a pretty clear picture of just how smart you are.
The only thing left is for you to tell LolaWiz she doesnt know anything about breasts.

Thankfully, not all women are rude.
