10 things woman know about men.

1) Men can’t help but check out other women.
You can swear up and down that you weren’t checking out the hottie from across the bar, but it’s okay, we know you were. Women get it’s an innate, programmed in your DNA kind of thing, but know that it doesn’t mean we like it. It’s been said once and here it is again, when with your lady, try to keep staring to a minimum.

2) Men care what others think of them, and even dress up for others. Women may take three times longer than men to get ready to go out, but we know men can care almost just as much about their appearance. You want to appear cool, suave and confident, and if you have to keep up a facade so others think you’re the aforementioned, you will. We like that you care about your appearance, as long as we remain prettier than you, it’s a-okay.

3) Men are visual beings. Women understand that being visual beings explains why men like porn, strip clubs and sexy lingerie. Further, we know you’d think it’d be hot if we did a strip tease for you in private. But note, not all women are comfortable enough in their own skin to do a strip tease. Do one first, and maybe she’ll follow suit.

4) Men can’t take hints. Women’s hints, leads or codes don’t always register into men’s brains. Further, you don’t grasp our non-verbal cues or tones in our voices. Women get that if they want a favor or expect you to do something, we need to tell you straight out what it is we want. However, some women may still hope that their guy knows them well enough to take a hint, and also refuse to believe men are that dense. Don’t be afraid to subtly ask what it is that we want…it’s better than assuming as that could end badly.

5) Men take sports seriously. “It’s just a game…” are words we know not to utter to a sports fan. Women get that men are competitive and love to watch other men run (or dribble) with balls, slam into each other and pat each other on the butt. Some women will never understand the fascination fully, so don’t expect them to always join in the watching rituals.

6) Men don’t want to admit it, but they need women in their lives. Whether it’s their mothers, girlfriends/wives, work buddies, friends or friends with benefits; it’s simple, men need a woman in their life. Women can offer men sound advice on love, family and work that is usually unparalleled to the advice another man would give. To the table, women bring compassion and a positive, caring spin on situations. All that, and of course, men need women for sexual purposes.

7) Men are scared of the term forever. It’s as if the word “forever” meant the end of the world is near or something equally as tragic. “Forever” doesn’t have to be a scary term. According to Dictionary.com, it means “without ever ending”. Flip it so it’s a positive connotation and now imagine love for your mate, family members, sports team, or pet “without ever ending” or being able to wear your favorite (now ratty) t-shirt or kicks “without ever ending.” Not so bad now, eh?

8) Men are bad at remembering dates. The only exception to this is remembering sports’ opening day dates or the date Grand Theft Auto IV comes out. For women to keep reminding you of dates and tasks such as when your parents are going to be in town or that the plumber is expecting to be paid in cash upon completion of his project gets quite tiring. Consider using your cell phone’s calendar function as a way to keep track of dates and details. (Even older models have a calendar function, but if yours doesn’t then opt for a pocket planner.) Remembering your mom’s birthday, Father’s Day or your anniversary on your own will score you brownie points.

9) Men like to gossip just as much as women do. Gossip is typically known as a woman’s sport, but we know guys enjoy it too. Male magazines such as Maxim and FHM have a few pages dedicated to celebrity gossip. Who’s dating whom, who got breast enhancements and whose music video is scorching hot are all featured and tucked away in their “Entertainment” sections. Straying away from celebrity gossip, do I dare say “locker room talk”?! More boasting and gossiping happens in locker rooms and happy hours that it gives the ladies on The View a run for their money. Though gossip can lead to rumors, it also makes for good conversation and in some strange way, bonding.

10) Men sometimes lie because it’s easier than telling the truth. We know you tell little white lies to spare our feelings, which sometimes is alright because we don’t like our feelings hurt. However, we know there are times you fib because the truth would be a big sordid mess and you’d rather avoid it. Lying through omission is still lying. Telling the truth and nothing but the truth may be too hard and sometimes unnecessary, but use your better judgment and tell the complete truth more often than not.
