6 Mistakes Women Make Just Like Men

“Typical man.” Ever heard a friend say that? Or be the one to say it? We’re taught that for the most part, men just don’t care as much as we do. We’re taught that they are not as sensitive as we are., that they don’t pay attention as much as we do or read into things like we do. So, to retaliate, or even just to protect ourselves, we tone down the sensitivity too. But sometimes, we go too far. There are also plenty of things we do that look just like what men do to us that piss us off, and we don’t even realize it. Like these:

    As a young male, not too far removed from college… having to work hard and pay rent, a car note, student loan, etc.  one of the biggest mistakes women make is failing to offer to handle a check.  Now I know this is a confusing… for centuries, the man has had the financial responsibility, but aren’t we in a changing time?  Women are graduating from college and earning higher pay than men, this is even more evident in minority communities.  In a generation or two, stay at home dads will be more prevelent (and may potentially save marraige in this country) thanks to the financial empowerment of women.

    There are women who absolutely refuse to pay anything despite being better equipped monetarily.  I don’t think I’m cheap, but I make a modest wage while you’re damn near a manager at Price Waterhouse Coopers, I think you should be putting a lil skin in the game.  This sense of entitlement is similar to that
    of senior citizens who are unwilling to accept any kind of change to Medicare & Social Security, both groups have not acknowledged reality.    

    I’ve often heard from women who attempt to help out with a check, that they’ve always been denied the oportunity, as the man feels it diminishes his pride. Forget that… just offer, it really shows you’re considerate and selfless. “Hey, all you had were those 3 Heinekens versus my 4 long island iced teas, I can at least cover a 20% tip.  I insist.”

    Ladies, the day I hear this, is the day you’ll have my heart.

      Well Hell I always offer to tip on good dates. But I personally can’t see me with a stay at home Dad. Nothing against them. I just see my mate as a hard working part of the work force….even if my wages are higher than his.

      Lol the modern man. I can dig it. Before I got married I was usually running into the guys that wouldn’t let me pay if I offered. When my husband and I were dating if he didn’t have any money he would say that we couldn’t do anything because he was broke even though I was willing to pay for the evening. It’s something that’s ingrained in a lot of men. Now my husband doesn’t have a problem with it but he still only lets me pay when he doesn’t have it even if it was my idea to go out.

    And here is just ANOTHER list that confuses me. While all these “scenarios” are true… what does it all mean in the end?

    I don’t know about y’all but I get up too fast after sex to pee; don’t want to get a UTI
