What are some things that give you the ICK in men ? Here are mine.

[joseline]

1. A man who doesn’t have a passport and never travelled out of their country. You mean to tell me you never got out of the country ? Two possibilities. You are an extreme nationalist and think other countries are inferior. Or you simply boring. I am not into people who refuses to travel. People who refuses to travel are the grouchiest motherfuckers ever.
2. A man who drives a big ass oversized pick up truck or SUV. Not the F150s. Those are reasonable sized trucks. I am talking about those men who drive ford F250s or even Ford F650s and GMC sierras, Cadillac Escalade. You are not cool at all. You look stupid.
3. A self proclaimed passport bro. Women in the US and other western countries aren’t tolerating your bullshit so you go in the poorest areas in developing countries and seek desperate women seeking refuge and you taking advantage of that.
4. A man who is afraid to fly. Plane crashes are rare and there are millions of planes flying right now worldwide and 9 times out of 10 they land safely. They take the passengers from A to B without incidents. Even banned airlines from third world countries rarely have crashes. Lock in and face your fears fuck face 🙄.
5. A man who is a vegan or a climate activists. If you start lecturing me about how using AC or heat is damaging the planet or how eating meat is cruel you getting blocked 🚫.
6. A man who voted for trump. You supporting a predator if you voted for that orange dictator.
7. A man who does travels but only goes to all inclusive resort destinations or stick to the crowded touristic areas or even worst, uses travel agents to book trips. That’s what peasants do. Get out of my face. Say I am with a man and he says “oh let’s go spend a week in Montego Bay Jamaica at this nice all inclusive or let’s go to Punta Cana” it would be an instant turnoff. If a man invites me to a cruise or some all inclusive dystopia, I am breaking up with him through text message and I am blocking his number and I am blocking him on all social media pages.
8. a man who is rude to waiters and waitresses.
9. a man who is broke.
10. a man who has no female friends.

Some very weird examples in there @joseline

Are you single?

Are you American?

You do sound very high maintenance! 😬

Why would people not have heard of those countries???

Well yes, women-haters basically.

One of the things I love about my dh is his total happiness and the proud look on his face when I’m drunk dancing with my mates and being a dick!

WTAF?! 😂

As pps have said, why do you assume people on here have not heard of these countries? Do you think most posters on Mumsnet are a bit simple, thick, and badly educated? 😆

Plays guitar at parties

Oh God - this reminds me of a friend of a friend I know who had a party for his 40th with it seemed the sole intention of getting his guitar out and having a “jam” around his fire pit.

He called it “Nigelstock” as in Woodstock but after himself 🤢

He also wore a scarf whilst playing his guitar 🤮

Here's me thinking that caring about the environment was a good thing.

Silly me.

Next time I'm walking along the riverbank with my bottled springwater, I will make sure I sling the bottle in the river. Extra points if the lid comes off, and poses a choke risk to the ducks, swans, and geese.

disclaimer. I'm joking. 😆

😂

To be fair, I bet most of us haven't heard of Surinam.

Why 2 posts?

when I tell people I’ve been to those countries they give me weird looks.

I imagine there are many reasons why you get weird looks

@joseline probably thinks some of us haven’t heard of them because we’re peasants and use travel agents to book 🤣

Probably disappointment that you came back.

Votes Trump or Reform

Long nails or nail biting

Heavy meat diet, I just imagine the meat sweat and breath on him

Vapes and specially where he shouldn't eg on public transport or cinema.

Oh yeah. American.

'Countries you've probably never heard of.'

In the rest of the world we know about other places. It's just in the US that St Lucia, Guyana et al don't exist.

Not exotic. Or unusual. Very popular holiday destinations. Not to mention, we have immigrants from those places who bring their food and culture with them.

I'm guessing you have to travel alone.

Yes, I have heard of those countries. And happily self identify as a pesant descended from a long line of peasant farm workers.

People who are rude to serving staff can fuck right off though.

Some men and women have just their pinky nail long 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮

Those countries aren’t popular at all. Specially Dominica, Suriname and French Guiana (overseas French territory) as well as Martinique and Guadeloupe. Which are other unpopular destinations I wanna go to one day.

when most people talk about travelling they talk about played out destinations. Jamaica, Bahamas, Dominican Republic, Barbados ect

My uncle Bob had this for cleaning his ears out. 🤢🤢🤮🤮🤮🤮

How dare you or anyone else use an expert with knowledge to book quality accommodation and possibly transport to and from the airport…

I can only assume OP takes the same approach to other things (such as plumbing, car repairs, electricians) and rather do it themselves…

In the US. NOT in the rest of the world.

Go to the UK. You'll find people from most of those countries.

You're wearing MAGA blinkers.

The main thing that puts me off a person is stupidity.

Its bizarre how some people can be quite snobby about what is, just a holiday! Everyone gets on a plane and gets off at the other end! Whatever the destination. It's not as if you're the first person to discover the place! 🤣

Last year, I went with TUI to Tunisia. The year before that I travelled alone to Minnesota, Iowa etc. Different experiences, equally valid.

What the actual F**K 😳😳😳
