differences gender - communication

Have you ever wondered what does she mean? Women in general will express their emotions, wants and desires using a normal straight to the point communication style. Unfortunately, some women will say something but mean something else.

I always wondered; why do they do this? I researched and read a few articles about how to recognize this female communication. In one of this articles they even explain what the man should do when she asks him certain questions. For example; Do I look Fat? or If We were not together which of my friends would you go for? I read the whole article to be prepared for the next time these questions come across. Then, I realized;

- Wait a minute! I don’t have to put up with this passive-aggressive behavior. It is not my problem she doesn’t know how to communicate -

I you still want to know what she means read ahead and find out yet more gender differences; What She Says vs What She Means.

1. FINE: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right, and you need to shut up.

2. Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means half an hour. Five Minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3. Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with nothing usually end in fine (see #1).

4. Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don’t Do It!

5. Loud Sigh: This is not actually a word but a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing. (Refer back to #3 for the meaning of nothing.)

6. That’s Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a women can make to a man. “That’s okay” means she wants to think long and hard before deciding how and when you will pay for your mistake.

7. Thanks: A woman is thanking you – do not question or faint. Just say you’re welcome.

8. Whatever: Is a women’s way of saying “%@&* YOU!”

9. Don’t worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times, but is now doing it herself. This will later result in a man asking “what’s wrong” – for the woman’s response refer to #3.

differences gender - PMS for men

For most women PMS is that time of the month in which they experience a roller coaster of emotions, physical pains and psychological fluctuations. These fluctuations are experienced as mood swings accompanied by irritability, headaches, depression and fatigue.

Despite psychologists not been able to identify mayor mood differences, gender clearly is the reason for this behavioral and biological changes. To my surprise, a cronic case of PMS is considered a medical condition known as Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD).

Next time a female goes through PMS be patience and try to understand she is going through some difficult times. The best advice is not to confront or get into arguments. As we have seen in the video there is no logic behind the behavior because is mostly emotional.

Below, 13 things PMS stands for. (I don’t know who the original author is).

13 Things PMS Stands For:

  1. Pass My Shotgun
  2. Psychotic Mood Shift
  3. Perpetual Munching Spree
  4. Puffy Mid-Section
  5. People Make me Sick
  6. Provide Me with Sweets
  7. Pardon My Sobbing
  8. Pimples May Surface
  9. Pass My Sweatpants
  10. Pissy Mood Syndrome
  11. Plainly, Men Suck
  12. Pack My Stuff

Smooch Signals

How To Tell When She Wants To Be Kissed
Last night I was at a get together, with friends, comparing differences between dating 20 to 30 years ago versus today. The question came up about when to kiss a woman. Well, that is the wrong question.
The real question is; How To Tell When She Wants to Be Kissed, you need to know how to interpret her signals;

Don’t go for the kill

Does a cheetah ask a gazelle if it is ready to die? This is the mentality that will get you a slapped in the face. Most guys will wait until the end of the night, impatiently, to make that sudden and slippery move; the undesirable forced-smooch-with-violating-tongue kiss. There are some signals that need to be properly interpreted;

Her Signals

  • She gets rid of the chewing gum
  • She glances at your lips while listening to you
  • She starts by looking down. Then, without words, she holds your gaze for a few seconds with a demure smile. Then, look away.
  • She will hide her hands behind her back.
  • She snuggles her face into your neck, barely kissing your cheek.
  • She slowly move her lips towards you
  • She kisses very softly
  • She moves away slowly

What he thinks the signals are;

  • She has been chewing gum all night long.
  • He paid for dinner
  • She looked at him
  • She is not trying to jump out of the car. Only a little desperate to go back home
  • She is not yawning
  • She is not talking to some other dude about getting together later that night but send a lot of text messages
  • He thinks that she thinks he is an awesome dude because she laughed at his drunk stories and hasn’t call him an idiot
  • She is not drunk-ass throwing up everywhere
  • She didn’t get that angry when he grabbed her butt in front of his friends

no smooching signals

After the Smooch Signals blog posted yesterday I received this email from a Guest Writer. I thought it will be great to share what she has to say.

“I have been watching the TV technique…not that that’s any reflection of reality. But anyway, most of the time in the movies, the woman puts her lips very close to the man’s lips (after some appropriate pause in the conversation).

He gets the clue (how could he not?) and completes the last inch required for contact. For me, I have never had to be that assertive and if I really like the guy, would probably be too shy to move in before he does. If we are both shy, well, I guess we’ll have to get really drunk first, stumble into each other and bump our lips together by accident before one of us blushes and pulls away. But according to your blog, the guys are never shy and are basically going to give it a try no matter what.

So maybe you should find out what women do to give out the signal that they DON’T want to be kissed?

Here are some obvious clues;

  • She throws up.
  • She leaves the party w/out saying good-bye
  • She talks about having a cold or the flu
  • She hides in the bathroom until you wander away
  • She initiates a short and sweet peck on the cheek and turns her back on you.
  • She doesn’t answer the phone when you call
  • She doesn’t call back
  • She lets you kiss her while firmly keeping you at a distance with her hand on your chest
  • She starts eating a slice of pizza … or anything
  • She checks her phone for messages
  • She belches like a truck driver
  • She talks about how much you would like her friend Bambi (unless she is into some other arrangements we won’t discuss here)”

How To Know If He Loves You

Author: areyoupop | Filed under: differences gender

relationship dating advice

Continuing with our series, relationship dating advice (read previous post; he says, she hints) this time we are looking at How To Know If He Loves You. This is not the same as how to know if is going to marry you but it is an improvement.

Before we review those phrases that signal he is comfortable having you around lets remember that most men are not as emotionally connected as most women are.

Men will show you are welcome to his territory when he says phrases like;

“No you don’t look fat in those jeans”
“I love your short hair cut”
“No it’s perfectly fine that you cut off your long, silky waist length hair”
“I was only noticing how fat she looks in those jeans”
“I lit the match and the toilet seat is down, darling”
“You choose the movie”
“Here, You flip channels for a while”
“I’m here for you; tell me everything you’re feeling”
“Come here. You need a hug.”
“Were there other women there? I only saw you.”
“What are you thinking? a pedicure? sure, I’ll try it.”
“Dancing lessons? sounds like fun”
“You thought I forgot our 3-and-a-half-month anniversary, didn’t you?”
“I’ll hop out and ask this guy for directions.”
“OK … soy milk, eggs, M&M’s, frozen organic edamame, nail polish remover, Clearasil, a box of tampons and Yoga Journal… Did I forget anything? I’m on my way.”

He Says, She Hints

Author: areyoupop | Filed under: differences gender

relationship dating advice

Last night, a friend asked me for some dating advice on how to understand men. Well, as we all know understanding men is not an easy task. As a representative of the male gender, I have to say, yes it is difficult to understand men but slightly easier than understanding women.
Hopefully, I didn’t push the buttons of those feminist women out there with that comment above.

I tried explaining my friend the psychology of men and how simpler it is than women think. My thoughts started to come together.

After some more observations on human behavior, discussions, squeezing the stress ball by my desk, making fist-size paper balls and shooting a few into a trash can nearby, I decided to begin a perhaps controversial series of posts about relationship dating advice. Let’s begin with communication;

UNDERSTANDING MEN 101

Why men don’t get hints

Hints – The encrypted way of women to metaphorically ask for something

Don’t waste your energy hinting a guy into throwing the garbage out by saying – “This kitchen is a mess” – . Or while at the video rental store, – “Do you really want to go to watch that movie?” – when clearly you would rather pick a chick flick. The dictionary defines encrypt as; To put into code or cipher. To alter using a secret code so as to be unintelligible to unauthorized parties. Yes, women use a secret code that not even Dan Brown (author of the DaVinci Code) can figure it out. And who is part of the unauthorized party? men are. We don’t take hints because we men, are not subtle at all. We tell it like it is.

- “Hey, what do you think about this for her birthday gift, Bro?” a man ask his buddy.

- “That is crap, you cheap bastard! Why are you giving her pots and kitchenware for her birthday? That’s not for her; that’s for the kitchen. Why is she sleeping with you, again?”

While women are proud of their female intuition, developed through thousands and thousands of years trying to communicate with their newborns in caves, we lack this so called intuition.

Women can read other people’s auras, and sense with touch how another female or young creature might be feeling. They have a soothing and complex way of communicating with each other. They connect on three thousand different levels with another woman. And the deeper, the better. That is why they love to do all that crazy stuff like mantra, palm reading, aerobics, yoga, group therapies, go shopping and buy shoes, dance closely with each other and/or get drunk and make out. We see all those activities as lesbian-bordering activities and fantasize about it. We don’t understand why women love to bond in such ways.

Male bonding consists of watching a ball game, grabbing a beer, belching, farting and, very important, seating on your own chair. We don’t share couches, not even 12 feet long couches. It is just gay.

On the other hand we men, until recently, have been going out and hunting the next meal for the family for thousands and thousands of years. We went hunting with other Neanderthals fellas.

We see, we point to a prey, we hunt, we eat, we fart.

That is as far as communication went amongst pre-historic men. And to be honest, I don’t think it has changed that much.

So my dear friend, to summarize, we men are primitive beings that haven’t evolved that much communication-wise. We are still on the first floor of evolution while women are on the second floor. It is another level of communication.
