1. They have emotions too.

I’m not an emotionless dude. I think about you all the time. Sometimes the smallest things remind me of you. I’m not always great at expressing it, and sometimes I am confused by my own thoughts and emotions. But believe me, you’re on my mind.

2. They are unsure what ‘cute’ really means to women.

Women use the word “cute” so often I have no idea what it means anymore.

3. Finding other women attractive has nothing to do with you.

Just because we find other women attractive, it doesn’t mean we find you any less attractive or would leave you for a stranger that passes by.

4. They do love the little things.

It’s the little things you say off the cuff that I really remember.

5. Guys aren’t good at picking up on subtleties.

If you are interested in a guy, don’t assume he’ll pick up on you dropping subtle hints.

6. Teeth are the enemy.

Teeth are NOT okay! It hurts our precious.

7. Not every gay guy is automatically your best friend.

Gay man here. Just because you just met me and never had a ‘gay best friend’ does not make us best friends. You need to buy us a drink first.

8. Guys are not mind-readers.

I can’t read your mind. Just tell me what you’re thinking.

9. Making the first move is always encouraged.

Sometimes it’s way hotter if a girl makes the first move.

10. Guys shouldn’t always have to be the big spoon.

Sometimes, all I want is to be the little spoon.

11. Decide on a place to eat.

I don’t give a shit where we are going to eat just tell me and we will go there.

12. They don’t spread their legs to be assholes.

We don’t spread our legs out to be ass holes. We do it so our balls are not squeezed to death by our legs.

13. When in doubt: sundress.

The sexiest thing you can wear is a sundress.

14. Men don’t like it when you can’t just say “thank you.”

When we give you a fucking compliment, accept it goddamnit.

15. There’s really only one secret to giving a good blowjob.

Enthusiasm with a blowjob goes a lot further than some technique you read in some magazine.

16. There are only a couple things they can’t stand.

Never use the words “I’m fine.”

17. They don’t care if you’re shaved.

If you like to shave your lady parts, that’s cool, but I really don’t care if it’s perfectly shaven before we get it on.

18. Just because you hate every guy you’ve dated, doesn’t mean all men are assholes.

Men aren’t all the same.

Maybe the problem is YOU falling for the same type of guy over and over?

19. Men tell it like it is.

When you ask us if something is wrong, and we say “nothing…” please just leave it at that. If something is truly bothering us, trust me, we’ll tell you.

20. They need time with their friends.

We need guy time. We don’t want to go out fucking other women, we just want to get drunk and do boring guy shit. Once a month is all we need, just as long as you are not there. Don’t get moody and call/sms/email us the entire time we are out.

Save your nagging for when we get home hung over.

21. Clearing up some misconceptions about the elusive “double stream.”

We did not make up the double stream as an excuse for pissing on the seat. It’s a real thing!

22. The porn they watch has nothing to do with you.

If you catch us watching porn with our hands down our pants, if you catch us looking at the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue, if you catch us watching the Victoria’s Secret specials/commercials, or ANYTHING of the sort… you’re not going to believe this, but it has absolutely NOTHING to do with you!!!!

Now if your guy tells you some bullshit like, “you need to look like this,” or “you can stand to lose a few pounds,”… then yeah, dump his ass.

23. Guys hate games.

If you play games I will end our relationship in a heartbeat.

24. They can’t pay for everything.

Chivalry does not mean that we pay for everything all of the goddamn time! You need to take responsibility for this more often and contribute equally in my opinion.

25. They’re not ALWAYS imagining you naked.

Just because I think you’re cool or cute, that doesn’t mean I want to have sex with you. I mean, if you wanted to I totally would, but it’s not what I’m thinking about when we’re having a conversation or hanging out.

26. Women are too hard on themselves.

You are prettier than you think you are.

27. SERIOUSLY UNPOPULAR OPINION:

Regretting it later doesn’t mean you were raped.

28. A smile really can go a long way.

If I have any tiny ounce of attraction towards you and you smile at me, it will instantly make my day better.

29. Guys really aren’t that picky.

Guys will watch porn with girls that have huge tits and a perfect ass, but when a guy has a naked girl standing in front of him he thinks it’s awesome no matter what she looks like.

30. Men don’t typically like to share their feelings.

Most of the time, we would rather let something eat away at our soul than talk about it. When I am zoned out and pissed off about nothing, this is why. The dog understands it.

31. The makeup is not helping.

You don’t need to wear tons of makeup and you don’t need to spend 2 hours doing your hair. Attractiveness is 90% attitude and confidence. Thought Catalog Logo Mark
