A Dozen Amusing Ways That Women Are Different from Men

November 1, 2009

When you enter a relationship, there’s one thing you should know from the get-go: You will NEVER really understand your mate. It just isn’t meant to be. Men and women were just made different.

Here are 12 funny (and kind of true!) illustrations to prove my point.

Posted by Jaya Gibson at January 8, 2010, 2:42 am

its a waste of time being offended about stupid flowcharts on the internet

Since men are such simple minded fools, how the hell do they almost always end up in charge? Maybe stereotypical thinking leads women to make the serious, chronic miscalculations that keep them in the underdog position.

I lolled.

As a woman, I found these mostly amusing in the way most stereotype jokes are.

However the comments really killed all the humor. Gotta learn not to read those so I can keep fooling myself into thinking there are no longer sexist people who think a penchant for purchasing accessories is part of WHY womankind is oppressed.

stereotypes exist for a reason… they weren’t just pulled out of thin air. but not everyone fits them… and i think people take these things too seriously

Posted by Jack at January 8, 2010, 12:03 pm

these are really stereotypical but also kinda funny I guess.

I really enjoyed this cats 4 gold thing hahaha

“Bandwidth Exceeded”, can’t see anything.

Posted by Val at January 8, 2010, 12:08 pm

I am a woman and I think these are funny… I wish people would lighten up and just have a laugh here and there. So sick of such extreme “political correctness” that people can not enjoy a little joke… *sigh*

Posted by Yo at January 8, 2010, 12:10 pm

I’m not going to say these were offensive to me because they weren’t…but they weren’t funny either.

Then again, I fucking hate flowcharts.

I wonder what the reaction would be if a guy wrote “A Dozen Amusing (And Slightly Offensive) Ways That Men Are Different From Women”. They’d probably hear the screeching in Australia.

Bandwidth exceeded on every single one. Can’t see a thing.

Posted by fixyourshit at January 8, 2010, 1:18 pm

Eeek! Fixing the bandwidth problem now. Apologies to those who were offended but seriously — relax. Totally agree with Yo.

Awesome! Nice little ‘upper’ for the day. Thats coming from a woman!

Posted by Tasha at January 24, 2010, 2:10 pm

Haha, thanks Tasha! I found them hilarious as well. Gotta have a sense of humor about these things.

vern baby, your love life must be in the chute. probably having a most serious affair with your hand.

Posted by gail at March 10, 2010, 9:58 am

Come on…every one of us women know we can’t dispute the argument thing, the get a drink thing OR the buy shoes thing….And a woman says she can I’m saying she’s lying thru her teeth!
Those were funny, mostly accurate, and not all THAT offensive to me.

It’s all very true … awesome man …
