Tis a joke Toddy. I can't answer for all women, but I'm annoying when I'm tired, hungry, have PMS or if someone is annoying me.

What makes you annoying?

So it does come down to weaknesses of sorts that leads to what we'd call 'being annoying'. If only these could be catered for better, for all our sakes.

Me, I'd say its my standoffishness that annoys people. The more standofish you are, the more people want to intrude. Its a vicious circle.

That's the thing. If I had a few pints it'd be a joke but I'm genuinely trying to explore a conflict in a bit more depth here. Otherwise nothing changes.

My OH gives out, nags and moans a lot - and he is a gay man!

In a perverse way I actually find some of his whingeing strangely comforting. But holidays with him are hard work. Never happy with the hotel we stay in - has to be perfect 4 star standard or better or nothing.

I'd happily stay in a youth hostel as long as it was clean and safe!:o:pac:

So you see OH, partners of either sex can be annoying. That's life and that's relationships...

This is the mentality that makes people stay in abusive relationships. They accept things they shouldn't because they think all men/women are like that. Not sure whether disliking your wine jumper and 3-stripe polyester tracksuit bottoms counts as being abusive, but my point still stands.

Surely that just enforces the perceived differences between the sexes, creating more of a divide? Plus, it was written by a hack.

I applaud you Toddy! Fighting the good fight. Trying to get the thread back on track.

It started fine but took a sinister turn when posters started giving out about men.
Then someone tried to start a hashtag campaign against tall women. I know it looks funny when a woman is taller than her fella but she’s not choosing to be tall. Women do have a choice not to be annoying.
We’ve had a woman wishing harm on her OH and a poster complaining about a gay man.

Back on topic please.

Ah to be fair, on a good day you can have good discussions in AH but I'm mostly here for fun, as are most I'd imagine.

People need to accept that on average men and women are different. That one effeminate man or butch woman you know doesn't change the average of typically male and typically female behaviour. And no, it isn't a social construct. By and large it's driven by biology. Women need attention more than men do to protect them from being eaten by lions, hence the constant nagging. If men made lots of noise they would be crap at hunting and get eaten.

Thats why women want tall men. Pure biology. We are just animals... Look at human behaviour that way it all makes sense.

The book 'Men are from Mars, Women are from Venus' may be helpful in your quest.

God no DB, awful book, with little meat to it and way too much supposition and outright nonsense that bears little or no scrutiny and invented and perpetuated fallacies about men and women.

One hypothesis goes that "nagging" is a way to keep men switched on and edgy more of the time to keep them on their toes about possible threats. Not so sure about that.

Though yes for the vast majority of human evolution and history women and kids were far more vulnerable and in need of protection than men(though more men died in the process). Years back there were chimpanzee attacks on people in an African wildlife area whose name escapes and they specifically targeted women on their own, even in groups of women. If an adult man was present they'd not risk it. Even though in pure physical terms a chimp could rip off a man's arm and beat him to death with the soggy end, adult men were seen as too much of a risk to take. Even tigers will be wary of attacking men when given a choice of targets. So yeah if more women are more socially and environmentally jumpy, even paranoid it makes perfect sense.

Proving the point. A man gets sick once in a blue moon and its manflu whereas the woman has a never ending series of ailments all year round. Men do too but generally don't complain about them.

Every second TV commercial is about some medicine for women's ailments.

BTW if anyone has a cure for manflu I seem to have it really bad at the moment... Every year around this time I get it.

Seems about right.

Actually, spot on in a way. Does lack of attention actually lead to vagina people (as described above) to experience anxiety and decreased mental health?

Bill Burr did a great routine on the old man face. Shows how that look of horror etched onto the faces of old men is derived from decades of nagging and the realisation that you will never escape

Not seeing anyone suggest otherwise. Still doesn't justify negativity about women (or men - but here it's women who get the brunt of the malcontent mostly) across the board.

Bill doesn't have much time for special treatment for sure :P, whenever I'm at a family gathering you can feel the evils from the fellas who are stuck with nags, they sit together like a support group. The thing is they chose to settle with them, they must have known at a certain point early on what they were dealing with.

That's a clever feminist tactic to silence men and stop them from calling out bad behavior. But there is nothing to stop women from complaining about men. Ryan Tubridy and Ciara Kelly brings them on air to have a little whine. Remember the Late Late show where Sinead O'Connor and Norah Casey gave out about men. Barbara Scully on Newstalk will always gets in little jibes about men.

As if anybody would take anything Sinéad O'Connor says at face value.

Stupid phrases or tattoos are not the possession of a single gender.

Condemning an entire sex is stupid and resentful whether men or women.

There have been plenty of threads on AH questioning men, just as there have been about women. Usually started in jest or by trolls, I wouldnt take them too seriously.

chrissb8

I think she just wanted to make sure you weren't wearing the wine jumper and knew you hadn't worn it in months. She just remembered how horrible it was an wanted to make sure you weren't going to rock up like you're on TV trying to sell a pension scheme with a free parker pen.

On Boards they're far far more having a go at women (male dominated site though) but in general, men can get slated too. And it's considered more acceptable also.

Actually statistically in medical terms women are far more likely to die or go undiagnosed for far longer than men because we typically play down our pain levels or are just not taken seriously by doctors.

Also it has been discovered that women are taken less seriously with medical conditions such as heart attacks, generally they're asked what appears to be the problem an dmen are asked what is the problem. Also women are more then likely told that theyre depressed and offered councelling or anti depression meds rather then further examinations to assess condition

A lot of women also miss the fact that they've had a heart attack. You know the way it's always depicted and warned about, and the symptoms that come up when you Google? Shooting pains in the chest and left arm? Women are less likely to experience those symptoms to the same degree and often experience a range of others: back pain, vomiting, pain in both arms.

In fact it's sometimes mixed up with symptoms of the menopause.

Just think about that for a sec, one of the things we're criticised for moaning about, and which happens to every woman, can be confused with a goddamned heart attack. And that's after about 360 weeks of your life spent bleeding out your genitals while in considerable pain, having doctors' hands up you in some semi regular capacity since the age of 25 and not even starting on pregnancy and childbirth.

Can you blame us for not taking men being incapacitated by a cold which they're convinced is a flu very seriously?

Could that be because men only go to the doctor if they are really sick?
