Three decades after the release of the bestseller ‘Men Are from Mars, Women Are from Venus,’ the debate over how and why men and women are different from each other and what that means for their roles in society is far from settled.
However, a survey by the Pew Research Center found that majorities of Americans say they are different in their physical abilities, their personal interests, their approach to parenting, and the way they express their feelings.
Reddit user u/Diligent-Log6805 decided to explore the relationship between these two sexes from a male perspective and made a post on the platform, asking: “Guys, what do women do that give you the ick?” Immediately, the answers started pouring in.

Denigrating and emasculating men who show emotions. It’s honestly one of the most f****d up things anyone can do to another person.
Also, using a man’s kids as pawns in disputes, like cutting off visitation because you’re mad at him. Don’t f*****g do that, it’s just cruel to the kids.

Refer to themselves as a boss b***h, queen, princess, or baddie.

The f*****g testing.
I appreciate that you have been in previous relationships where someone lied and/or cheated on you but don’t spend your entire single life trying to catch me in some lie so you can have your self fulfilling prophecy that all men are liars.

Duckface. It’s 2023. Duckface was cringe 15 years ago but some women are STILL doing it.

When they think a toxic trait of theirs is cute/quirky. There’s a big difference between being blunt in a respectful way and being a b***h.

Loudly empathizing with every cause and group on the planet but treating people in their personal lives like trash.

silent treatment, I’ve hated it for the longest time, when you do something wrong and you try to apologize and they say nothing is even worse, just hurtful.

Be super clingy, not have a life outside of the relationship, and baby talk when trying to be cute.

Saying dumb s**t like “ as a MAN why are you taking care of yourself?” Or “ as a MAN your house shouldn’t be so clean”. Like sorry for not being a tramp.

Over-the-top solipsism. That whole “I don’t perceive it that way, therefore you perceiving it that way cannot be valid” mindset.

Confusing confidence with being inconsiderate.

Probably if a woman constantly texts me what I’m doing every 30 mins. Can’t stand when they say “wyd”. That’s some high school s**t right there

I think not taking accountability is the biggest one.
You’ve messed up/were rude/incorrect/whatever, but just doubling down and never apologising or admitting fault is so unattractive. Just own it and apologise like a grown up.
“I’m sorry but…” etc.

One for when you’re in a relationship:
When you’re with friends and they become distinctly less pleasant to you than when you’re alone, like making fun of you and making jokes at your expense which they normally would not make. Have had it in more than one relationship.
Like… what is that about?

always talk about themselves and never ask you anything at all so the entire thing just revolves around her, not even like how was your day or are you ok, just always about them and the attention

Cleaning my wife’s hair out of the drains grosses me out to the point where I gag. Idk why. I had no problem with other gross things. I can even clean up my dogs vomit with little to no gagging.
