Women Men Despise

This is an article I found on AOL today called "Women Men Despise". Read it and leave your opinions. Interesting and funny I think...





1.) Church Girls - What about the women? I'll name one kind: Church Girls. They live in this twisted world where they think they can treat you poorly, cheat, b**** and complain, but as long as they go to church it's OK for them to do this. It's more like the Devil is in their souls instead of God.

2.) The Dishonest Diva - Two major complaints: 1. She's not as advertised. Someone who says she is one sort of person when she is not. Might as well be honest about oneself; the truth will soon come out. 2. She is afraid to say no. If she doesn't like something (Chinese food, old movies, etc.), it's better to say so than to complain about it after the fact.

3.) The Constant Housewife - While I look for someone who realizes the importance of family and having a family together, I also hope to find someone who feels that all homey things are not her responsibility alone, because that will put a strain on the relationship down the road. [These women] are angry if you spend more then a couple of times a month by yourself or with friends. A relationship requires mutual benefits, [so] if you are given time with your friends or alone then she should [take] the same. This is even more important when you have kids together. In fact, if she is the primary childcare giver then she should be given more time away from the kids if she so chooses. [The ideal] woman is one who realizes that every minute of free time should not be spent together, but a good portion should. There is a reason they call it a relationship!

4.) The Cheater - When my ex left me, it was in the morning, and she was packing her bag.
I asked, "Hey -- where are you going?"
[She said,] "I'm leaving."
[I said,] "I understand that part, where are you going?"
[She said,] "I'm leaving you."

Turns out she was leaving me for one of the groomsmen from our wedding. Now, I should have seen that one coming since she had left her ex (who was a very good friend of mine) for me (though I assumed that it was because he'd left the state for months without saying anything). Lesson learned -- once a cheater, always a cheater.

5.) The Toxic Date - I do believe that everyone has some faults and … no one is perfect. But if a person is toxic... and if he or she doesn't treat their partner, other people and themselves with respect, that's a good sign the relationship isn't on a healthy path. Male or female. It is always good to know the signs...

6.) Too-Good-To-Be-True Girls - OK, so almost every guy is bad. But guys need to look out for the girls who can melt anyone with their smile. You have to prove your worth a million times over while the greaseball at the bar only has to buy her a few drinks and practice some "Pick-up Artist," "Glamour," "Desperate Housewives," and "SATC" lines to guide them.

7.) The Loudmouth - The type I hate the most is the girl who does not know that normal people can speak in regular voices and everything does not have to be screamed. Men, obviously, tend to be more laid back than women. Women need to realize that constant lecturing and yelling is not a desirable trait.

8.) The Manipulator -How many times have I heard a woman expecting a man to change, whether it is me or a friend of mine? No way. It won't happen and never should happen in any case. If you are a certain way when the two of you met, then that's the way it has to be all the time. To expect one person to change for you is essentially cheating on your part … if you know the rules of the game going in, and you try to change the rules in the middle of the game, you are CHEATING!

9.) The Attention Seeker - I had one woman who came on to me once, and not only did it turn out that she was married, but she was also out for the attention. After I found out (about the married part) I stopped looking at her in that way, and she knew it. Still haven't heard the end of that. For some reason, I'm the bad guy.

10.) The So-Called Feminist - My ex-girlfriend used to refuse to pay for anything, to the point where she wouldn't even bring her wallet along. One time we went to a place that didn't accept credit cards, and since I didn't have enough cash to cover both of us and she didn't have anything on her, we couldn't go. The one time she did treat me to a movie, it was used against me for the next month -- i.e., '"You buy dinner since I got the tickets; you get this movie since I got the last one," etc.

She also gave me a list of minimum things to get her for Valentine's Day (at least a dozen roses, at least a box of chocolates), which in addition to being expensive (especially since I was just a student), took the fun out of surprising her. She didn't get me anything in return, incidentally.

11.) Talkers - Women have this innate ability to think of 5000 different things...all at once. Now that all by itself isn't a bad thing. But living with a girl/woman who thinks that a man should also be able to rapid fire the cranial neutrons at light speed and jump from conversation topic to conversation topic in a nano-second is, well, mind blowing. Guys just don't do that. See, we think or talk of just one subject or topic at a time. When we're done with that one topic, we put it away and go to the next one. Orderly, organized, logical, and processed. Then we marry, move in, or live with a creature of the opposite sex who believes that every subject in the world is totally within bounds to talk about...all within 15 seconds. [Plus,] when men want to be romantic, we don't want [this] going on...whatsoever! When we're being romantic, there is absolutely NO ability for a man to think of more than that one thing...even if we wanted to. We're just not programmed that way. If a woman wants to talk, she needs to get that out of the way early in the evening. Nothing can kill a nice romantic evening like talking about the neighbors, the kids, the office, money, politics, birds, the grass growing, her mother, her brother, her friends, the washing machine, the doorman, the car, the store clerk...blah, blah, blah…ARGH! Sometimes less is more.

12.) City Gals - Most city women are useless Barbies. Country or small town women are less likely to be pampered lazy idiots.

13.) She's Too Busy Looking For Mr. Perfect - So many women are looking for Mr. Perfect. Here is a story about looking for perfection. A woman was driving down the highway, and since she had been driving all day, she was hungry. She started to look for a restaurant to have dinner, but could not find a restaurant she liked. One was too big (slow service). One was too commercial (quality?). One was too out of the way. One had too many semi-trucks parked around it (country Western). One had an empty parking lot. She looked and looked until she was so hungry she decided to eat at the next restaurant she saw. She drove up, walked to the front door and saw the sign: CLOSED! The moral is that people looking for perfection seldom find it.

14.) The Beauty Queen - Yup, it's true, and boys should be told this when they're still young, that good lookin' is only good fer lookin' or you will just get your heart smashed and pulled out your behind when you see her smoochin' on another guy behind your back. Pick an ordinary, no-frills type of gal who likes you for who you are and likes to be with you. Even then you better keep your eyes wide open. By the way gals, that old princess thing stinks.

And More...

The Super-Insecure-Girl - who needs constant verbal affirmation and obsessively compares herself to others.

The All-Around-Mentally-Ill - who's on a dozen medications, the combination of which is doing little to diminish the emotional roller-coaster that is her existence.

The-Risk-Taker - impulsive and reckless, often smokers or addicts (but not always!), who takes dangerous risks without considering consequences.
