Default Two questions

If anyone has a minute, please answer the question appropriate for your gender for a friend of mine. Thanks,

Becky

I am taking a college gender communication class. In the class I was assigned two questions to ask men and women (one for men and one for women). I have to take a survey to find out what the top answers are to these 2 questions.

I have to have at least 25 males answer the question: Why do women spend so much time deciding on what to wear?

I have to have at least 25 females answer: Why do men leave their clothes all over the floor instead of putting them in the hamper?

Please respond by telling me your answer and whether you’re male or female. I need all of the participation I can get for this. Please ask husbands, wives, sons, daughters, and whoever else you can think of. Thanks in advance!

Why do women spend so much time deciding on what to wear?

Coz they buy way too many cloths beigin with and they never wear any of those many times, that mean most of them are in good condition(unless they over grow ). And most girls don't like to wear same dress for long time(may be except jeans), so thats why they buy it in frist place so many cloths lol. So when they are going out, they always want something new and when don't have any new then they have to go through there 1000 of cloths to search for that perfect dress :Wink: See all these take lot of time :P

Cos they're so insecure about going out of the house as they are. They spend thousands of pounds and hours upon hours trying to be someone they're not.

Obviously subjugated by years of living in an overbearing patriarchal society and objectified as mere sexual beings as opposed to thinking equals by some cruel and callous misogynistic androcrats, all traces of self-confidence have been crushed out of them and so on an evening’s preparation they are constantly trying to achieve an insurmountable imagined state of perfection they do not feel worthy of. It’s a terrible state of affairs, what horrible judgmental men there are in society…

Either that or it’s because they are munters who can’t find an outfit that’ll hide the size of their arse.

explanation 1)
most girls/womens' hobby is it to go shopping so that they naturally have many different clothes. and if you've got options then you try to go for the most appropriate one... if you can choose between 20 cars/girls/bananas or whatever then you're obviously gonna try to find the best- depending on things like event or personal mood etc...
another magical word is combination: 8 pullovers, 25 shirts, 7 trousers, 12 pair of shoes and 4 jackets/coats makes a merely uncountable number of possibilities of combination- and trying them all takes a sh*tload of time- if there's a mathematic-skilled person in da house s/he may tell us how many possibilities there are in my example

explanation 2)
(a darwinistic/evolutionary theory i came up with while watching students in graz biggest students' bar)
struggle for existence!
it is the most important aim for every living being in a population to secure the existence of its genes within the next generation. but to reach that, a being of the same race with the opposite sex is needed. the fact that the descendent (ergo child ) has got 50% of the genes from the male and 50% of the genes from the female part includes the fear of either that the 50% of the genes which the descendent gets from the opposite sexual partner are of minor quality. therefore it is necessary to get the (appearantly) best being available of the opposite sex. due to the big competition among your own sex and due to the very small quantity of good specimen, it is logical that one tries to get advantage in selection. for animals it works that way that the men fight and the strongest (the appearantly best) is allowed to pass on his genes by coiting with the female specimen. with humans it works that way that girls try to cover up their least advantageous parts and push (pun intended) their more adventageous parts so that she in advantage of her rivals. and with some females that lasts hours


p.s.: though i've written this in a merely funny way and though this may sound a bit strange i'm absolutely serious with what i've just written!!!!

I have to have at least 25 males answer the question: Why do women spend so much time deciding on what to wear? - Because they're women.

I have to have at least 25 females answer: Why do men leave their clothes all over the floor instead of putting them in the hamper? - I'll answer this one........ only a retard would put clothes in a hamper, thats where food goes !

Assuming one always wears trousers and shoes and no more than one of anything at a time I figure thats 97860 possibilities...but of course, probably more than half of those would be so hideous that they wouldn't even be tried on anyway

And I would have to say that men leave their clothes all over the floor instead of putting them in the hamper/clothes basket either (a) because they're lazy and don't see the point in putting clothes in the hamper only to take them back out to wash them or (b) some underlying desire to have someone pick up after them and take care of them.
