Page 7 | What's something that men think is impressive, but really isn't?

Beep beep, come on traffic Speaking of traffic, mine is when men (or boys, rather) rev their bloody engines on their cars that sound like they're about to explode. No, please, don't speed off, open the boot to your clapped out Corsa, I want to get in. Also since going back to the gym, forgot how awful the men are there for showing off. There's this one in particular at my gym and idk if he's just mentally deranged or what but anytime he does any exercise he roars like a buffoon and I feel my vagina drying up a little more each time. It is so unnecessary. He will be easing his way through bicep curls, pretty much screaming and grunting for each one. Also has a horrifically embarassing habit of punching his chest, twice, every so often. Give me your opinions and stories; what is something that men do that they think is impressive, but really, really isn't... make my Saturday evening ✨

Doing a bit of washing. Including their own clothes.

"I do everything round here", he says, as he puts his clothes on a 90 degree wash with no soap powder.

HD on the television

I think it’s something they made up as a joke as I can never see it

Who the hell is still showing off about having HD TV?! That must be unique to one solitary male, surely. I can't imagine what my face would do if a man pointed out his telly was HD 😄

performance grunting in the gym
noisy exhausts on cars/ motor bikes/ whatever. Am I supposed to be impressed that you can, what- drive??

I mean, can they drive? The way some of them cut about makes me question if they got their licence on Temu

No. Kissing a tall man makes my neck hurt.
It is not romantic doing the deed with someone and looking at his chest instead of his face.
The tall men walk too damn fast. Makes me feel like a toddler trying to catch up with mum.
One of my friends is a lot shorter than her husband. Everything in their house is either too small or too big for one of them.
My DH is the same height as me and it makes everything so much better

@Fimofriend this actually made me laugh! I just imagined Mr Men characters when you said everything in their house is either too big or too small for one of them 😂

I know of a Billy Big Bollocks who was a tory councillor who really rated himself, Ousted by a newbie wannabe Reform councillor. in that last local elections. Billy has somewhat shrunk in statue and looks like the pathetic, sad old git that he really is as a result.

This is glorious and made me happier than it probably should have hahaha

My first boyfriend's Mum said his brother was a "real man" when she found out he'd got his girlfriend pregnant, who he'd only been seeing a few weeks! No! A "real man" would have used contraception so early in a relationship. Getting a woman pregnant is probably the easiest thing most men can do, and is in no way impressive. Being a proper partner and father in the longer term is FAR MORE impressive than a couple of minutes squirting! Needless to say, boyfriend's brother ran for the hills as soon as baby was born despite claiming he wanted to be a good "Dad", and his poor girlfriend had to chase him constantly for money he owed her and even remind him every year when it was his son's birthday etc!! His mother constantly thought he was a "real man" though - utterly deluded.

Ew wtf kind of women are these who praise their sons for ejaculating. As if she still thinks of him as a proper man for failing to be a father. The mind boggles

Their obsession with boy racer type cars, complete with large, loud exhausts, obnoxious spoilers etc.

The insistence of recounting tales of their amazingly impressive, alcohol fuelled skills playing pool, never mind taking any opportunity presented to showcase them at every venue with a pool table.

Upon realising I’m interested in football, the automatically assumption that I’ll be falling over my own feet for them to magnanimously bestow upon me their obviously unique and insightful football knowledge. Which, usually much to their chagrin, tends to be limited and often far inferior to mine!

Their transformation into instant cavemen/viking style warrior Gods whenever they get in front of a BBQ and start grilling meat. Calm the shite down Dave….it’s a burger from your local Sainsbury’s, not an antelope you speared and skinned yourself on the frigging savannah! 🙄

Hahahahaha howling lmao all so true!!!! Especially about the bbqs ffs hit the nail on the head 😭 the smutty pout and grumble they do when they press on it and make it sizzle, let alone when they flip said Sainsbury's burger. Jesus

It makes a massive difference to me when I watch football. Less so other things.

A big cock. Maybe I'm weird but I'd say most women are not that keen on a big cock and more likely to find it uncomfortable during sex. I'd much rather have sex with someone who is good at oral sex or generally knows how to make me orgasm, which is definitely not going to be through a massive cock doing PIV.

Realest comment on the thread tbh couldn't agree more. Massive cocks just hurt and they typically don't know what to do with it. Good oral over a big cock any day of the week

This is one I will never understand. Probably more impressive that they found someone willing to let them ejaculate inside of them tbh

my husband actually seems to think (weirdly, unbelievably!) that no other male could have got me pregnant?!! (did he really find it that difficult 🤪)

Oh gosh, we have awful grunty man in our gym as well. He sounds like he's dislocated something wherever he lifts, uuuunurghh of pain wail, then performative drop of weights, then occasionally a roar of achievement. Even my best noise cancelling headphones cannot compete with his sounds.

Go over to him and ask if he’s ok.

Tell him it reminded you of when your DC had constipation.

Expensive cars

Being an 'influencer'

Having big muscles is impressive in one sense, like the dedication and effort but it's not at all attractive to most women as I think most women would see it as indicating vanity and meaning a bloke will spend all his time in the gym and not have other hobbies. Not necessarily true, but that's the impression it gives.

BirdLandedonmyHead · 11/07/2026 20:10

I did have a good laugh recently with DH abd his motorbike. I was following him to the garage so he could drop it off for its MOT... and the worksvan next to him at the traffic lights actually wound their window to ask him about the bike.

So maybe motorbikes are attractive to other men. (The bike gets a bit of attention. Its on its last legs but apparently very cool. DH isnt cool.)

I don't think that's what she was doing, or anyone here, she was simply stating when men do this they think it's impressive but it really isn't lol

Show quote history

but why "men"?

One man they know possibly, but it's not something that MEN do and WOMEN don't?

A lot of the comments describe some weird unpleasant guy someone knows, doesn't apply to any of the men I know.

If you say "sending a dick pic" , then yes, that's a man thing! And no, it's not impressive.
