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

[worldshottestmom]

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 ✨

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

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

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

Doing a bit of washing. Including their own clothes.

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

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

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

@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 feel like this thread has just turned into "state reasons why men are a joke" and I love it lmfao

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

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 😄

Every bloke when they get out the shower.

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

Unloading the dishwasher. Like he deserves a fucking medal.

putting his own kids to bed

We have to be the same person. I have a whole thread on why dick pics are an abomination. It's interesting to me that the second they do something we always typically do, they thinks it's really impressive. Almost as if it takes some effort!

I get annoyed when people question my DIY skills, I'm a pro with them now. My Black and Decker power drill is my pride and joy.

Hmm. This is an odd one because I like a man to be tall, having said that, it's not an achievement.

Was literally thinking it's always "my famous lasagne/bolognese" when I read that comment hahahaha

Oh good god nothing worse than a borderline pedo bragging about it 😭 yes 68 year old Steve, I'm sure your 20 year old girlfriend really loves you for who you are 🙄

Nigel 😭😭😭

Ah man this is golden

My ex from university thought he was really sophisticated because he put red wine into bolognaise sauce.

Oh yes.
That's not just unimpressive, but a turn-off.
Like f* do you care about this, Nigel.
I put it down to them thinking that if they act like us we'll fancy them.
Wrong!

Peeling a potato in one piece so you can see how it all goes back to one potato.

So disrespectful to the potato headed community.

It used to be the norm to wear normal clothes on a bike ride.

It still is in places like the Netherlands

I think you're very much in the minority. Most women go weak at the knees at the sight of a tall bloke.
