Oh no. That’s me. Why? I have 30 years of that to atone for.

Oh no me too!! I thought it looked nice hanging there😢

Baseball hats. Double ick if worn backwards 🙄

The word ick I'm afraid.

Men who blow their nose and sound like an elephant or brass instrument
Men who don’t blow their nose at all and sniff/snort or otherwise irritate
100% agree with the folding bike brigade at the station
Using a wallet/purse/cash
More than 0.5mm growth on all nails
Men who look like they have never shaved in their life
Older chaps with grey/white/patchy stubble
Men who like cats
Men who think they are God’s gift to women
Agree with the reactolite glasses, these are slightly acceptable on women

Men who like cats?

Bobble hats. A beanie is fine. But a bobble wobbling around on top of a grown man’s wooly hat. Nope, nopey, nope, nope!! 😂

People who say fink, fort, fanks etc, rather than think, thought, thanks! Actually makes my skin crawl

That basically every man from where I am from 😂😱

Men, getting a full sweat on on the top shelf of the sauna - who then get into the swimming pool “to cool off”. Never showering first.

And us swimmers have to swim in their sweat.

The same men in the sauna, who sit and constantly “flex” a plastic water bottle - the noise makes me feel “stabby”

I look at men's walks. Ten to two clown feet - forget it!

The actress in Road House and Curly Sue walks like that. Her name is Kelly...Something.

@hotmumshit who's that character men look like when they've overdone it in the gym? That bloke in the photo you attached is built like it.

Johnny Bravo.

Men who wear pyjamas. Especially character ones like Homer simpson, or Superman ones 🤢

Yes!
I'll add Christmas pyjamas to that, bonus ick points if they match the wife and kids.

This has absolutely sent me and I’ve no idea why 😂

Tattoos. No doubt their owners like them, but I don’t. Working for six years in a men’s prison, I saw enough to last me a lifetime.

Aubin7 · Today 20:47

Men's t-shirts that are too tight in the arm.

I'm not sure why people have started doing this. I assume it is performance. Performance pyjamas!

SexyFrenchDepression · Today 20:51

Waxed men, I quite like hairy men, esp dark haired ones

Full beards, I used to find all an ick but lately a few I find quite attractive (Rossif Sutherland and also Bradley Cooper in A Star is Born)

Really clean cut men, too groomed

The noise of wine pouring, the glug into the glass gives me the ick

Men doing baby talk (fine if its to actual babies)

Too muscly, nice six pack is fine but the stretched veiny look is grim

I actually dont find grey joggers an ick, if the bloke is really fit then they look good (Aaron Tveit in grey joggers is hot)

No socks with shoes

Socks with sliders

Short stubby legs

People who pronounce words wrong

Turkey teeth

Massive drawn on eyebrows

Lip fillers

Fake tan on men (unless they are strictly)

People with no rhythm

I sound horrible but I have a huge list of icks, way more than that list😂, I am not judgy at all really in RL, and actually have only dumped someone once for any of these (baby talk). I probably dont come across many people with the above qualities often 😂

Hmm. Even if they are too tight because of developed muscles ?

Tattoos. No doubt their owners like them, but I don’t. Working for six years in a men’s prison, I saw enough to last me a lifetime.

I love tattoos, esp full sleeves if done properly but the other day I saw someone with an arm full of just individual tattoos, it looked so weird 🤮

Only if they are nice looking muscles, not big stretched veiny ones

It's been going on for years, though.

Anyone blowing a raspberry - I can't stand it. I have to move away and rub my forehead to get rid of the awful feeling.
Yes, I am ND.

I’m the same about wooden spoons or lolly sticks in my mouth… I have to rub my face to make the feeling go away and I feel weird for a while after, been like it since I was a child.

I rub my feet together either bare-foot or with socks on ( Sorry,whyamiherenow)
I read somewhere that it is a form of ‘self-soothing’ and is a sign of ND. Don’t know if this is actually true?

Cant bear the too-tight trackie bottoms, the shit-flicker pointy shoes worn with trousers that end at the ankle and the over manipulated hair.
Don’t mind vaping as long as it’s not blown all over me, but smoking makes me heave nowadays, as it’s far less common than it was. I feel like I can’t breathe when I smell it.
