Women rantings on men's annoying traits

By Remedios Lucio

You are out with your buddies on a Friday night, you noticed a group of  good looking women hanging out together across the room of a restaurant chattering the night away.  But wait, they are haplessly talking about you—no, not just you per se but men in general.

It turns into a rant session and how hard it is to find a good man for her or even a good date.  Then it turns into a full-on rag session on men in general.  They start ticking off their fingers with traits that makes men difficult.

Every human being has pride but men have major egos, sometimes egos bigger than craters of the moon.  Protection of their egos is so important to them that sometimes they don’t even notice how they are already hurting people around them.  What is even worse is arrogance.  They think their hot stuff and they can get any woman they want instantly.

Then there’s the silent demeanor when asked what is wrong or even worse averting their gaze elsewhere and changing the topic as fast as lightning.  Why don’t they just say it? Men don’t say what they are thinking in order to not hurt women’s feelings.  While the women keep on pressing for details (and we’re branded as naggers).

There are some men who are commitment-phobic.  They either just want a hook-up or they are not prepared for the responsibilities that come along with commitments.

Then there’s the Houdini act.  They do the disappearing act probably even better than Houdini himself.  This leaves women with multiple questions battling in her head and even, yes, stumps them.  This includes leaving women hanging.

Imagine competing with a man who does more beauty rituals than you? There are some men who are vainer than their girlfriends.  Metrosexual they say, right Tim Yap?  Some men can’t read between the lines.  You know how women are, enough said.

When it comes to kidding around, there are some men who doesn’t know when to stop.  The raise eyebrows shoot by annoyed women doesn’t scare them from shutting their loud mouths.  There are men who can’t decide for themselves and that is a major turn-off.  Indiscriminately burping and farting is just disgusting.  Fart sessions, anyone?

Men love beer and they love drinking especially after a long, stressful day at work.  What could be even better than drinking cold Red Horse and eating Sisig on hot plates?  But doing this so often irritates women.
