Unappreciated male behavior



Many new words have described typically masculine behaviors in recent years. The examples vary from mansplaining – men who unannouncedly explain things to women they did not ask for – to manspreading – men who burst and take up an awful lot of space without regard to their fellow human beings.

Of course, it can be a bit embarrassing to be aware that you are guilty
of this, as those around you do not appreciate it. But that’s why it’s
needed: no one wants to appear like a male chauvinist – and expose women to
frustrating situations.

The Unixplorian Times asked some women what typical male behaviors they
frown upon. 

  1. They guess women can not do “things that men do.” Example: take care of the grill and
    everything related to technology. According to our survey, these acts are unwelcome:

  2. Men always expect that they are the ones who will drive the car. If the woman still goes, they must comment on everything.

  3. When men start to explain sports as a 6-year-old, without knowing how much she knows about the subject. “You know, there are two football teams in Manchester….”

  4. When men react strongly when a woman says she likes sports. Men need to verify that it is, in fact, so. “Okay, which team took the Swedish Championship gold in 1963?”

  5. Men tend to think they like sports only to watch good-looking athletes.

  6. If a woman says she’s not interested in sports, men think she can not know anything about sports.

  7. A man seems surprised when a woman proves successful.

  8. Men can even get offended if the woman is more successful than them, especially if she’s making more money.

  9. Men assume that women are interested in them if they greet them in a friendly manner.

  10. Men fish for praise as soon as they have done something they think is a woman’s task, such as cleaning, shopping, and washing dishes.

  11. Feel free to answer women’s questions in detail but are not interested in asking questions back.

  12. When men say something but lose interest as soon as the woman has to answer.

  13. When a man interrupts a woman when she says something to a company.
