We all know that men are entirely different from women. From bathing, dressing up, grooming, eating out with friends, socializing, and so on, a significant difference is always apparent between the two genders.
You think you know too well the difference? Well, read this and sure, you’ll discover differences that you never knew existed. Some might make you laugh and say, “Yeah, sure I did” and some will make you doubt and say, “Did I ever do that? Can’t remember though...”
On Fashion:
A man settles for what he thinks looks best on him.
A woman asks a thousand of opinion and asks “You really think this fits me, right?” but ends up picking her own choice, disregarding the solicited suggestions.
On Bathing
A man walks in the bathroom naked and throws his towel on the floor/bed after showering.
A woman walks in the bathroom with her bathrobe on and hangs her towel after showering.
On Appearance
A man has to wear nothing on his face to look good and attractive.
A woman has to wear 3-4 colors to look good and attractive.
On Moustache
With or without moustache, generally, a man will always look good and still a man.
With a moustache on, a woman will look like a man.
On Grooming Kits
A man usually has 3-4 items in his kit.
A woman has no less than 10 items in her kit.
On Mirrors
Men check themselves on a mirror.
Women check themselves at any shiny surfaces like mirrors, store windows, spoons, monitors on black screen saver mode and cell phone in standby mode. Sometimes, even in a stranger’s one-way sunglasses.
On Wearing Caps
Women wear caps as an accessory.
Men wear caps to cover their accessory—balding head.
On Ear Piercing
Women have their ears pierced during childhood stage.
Men have their ears pierced in the adulthood stage.
On Eating Out
A man gorges on “hard foods”—meat, fried, beer.
A woman fascinates on “soft foods”—pasta, pizza, cheese, tea, juice.
On Going Out
When a man says he’s ready to go, he really means he’s ready to go.
When a woman says she’s ready to go, don’t believe her. She’s putting on her lipstick and still recovering her fallen earrings on the floor.
On Dating
Men are always calm on first dates, no fuss on dressing up and just relaxed.
Women are usually excited, effortful on dressing up, and are usually anxious.
On Writing
Man makes sure his message is conveyed across clearly and ends his letter with a period.
A woman, on the other hand, is more on getting her writing noticeable by using scented pens & colored stationery and ends her letter with a smiley.
On Gift-Giving
A woman usually doesn’t ask for opinions from her friends what to give her boyfriend on his birthday.
A man asks his buddies or her girlfriends’ what to give her on her birthday.
On Occasions
A woman expects a little “celebration’ for anniversaries/occasions.
A man asks, “Do we have to celebrate?”
On Meeting Friends
A man meets with his buddies and after that goes home and rest.
A woman meets with her girlfriends and when she gets home, dials the phone and talks with the same friends for hours.
On Sex
Women prefer foreplay before sex.
Men want sex right away.
On Children:
A man is uncommonly acquainted with the short and vague words of a toddler.
A woman quickly understands what the toddler is babbling about.
A man is never aware of his child’s “itinerary”
A woman keeps a record of all her child’s commitments: visits to dentist, immunization schedule, regular pedia visits.
Doing the Grocery
A man rushes to do the grocery upon discovering that the only thing left in his fridge is a box of ice and a spoiled cabbage.
A woman prepares a list of grocery and all the things she needs to buy way ahead.
On Paying Bills on the Grocery
When paying bills, a man takes out his wallet, and pays out.
A woman, on the other hand, seriously looks on the Cash Register, checks out every item punched by the cashier, and scrutinizes the bill before paying out.
Views on Staying Single
Ask a woman why she hadn’t gotten married and the reason would be independence.
Ask a man why he hadn’t gotten married and the reason would be afraid of commitment.
On Getting Lost
A woman would readily ask the first person she bumps into for directions.
A man would not ask any from someone. He would always say, “I’ll figure us a way out. Been in this place before, only I vaguely remember the way…”
These points should not be taken as just plain ridiculous differences between men and women but must be an avenue in understanding both sexes. Though different they may be, at one point, man and woman meet in connection, and that is more important than just drawing the difference.
