I don’t get why men DON’T get these things… Baby Animals? Michael Cera???? wasn’t every guy Michael Cera at one point? All Awkward and dorky… These are SOOOOO great! Dark Nail polish makes your nails look better (somehow), trapeze dresses look great on (almost) everyone, and jeans tucked into boots are just comfy! Kudos, Amelia, for another great post!

I think that men must like cute baby animals otherwise lolcatz would just not be as popular. I think most men would agree that the strangely spelled sayings would not be nearly amusing without the cute kittens involved!

I didn’t realize until the other day that men don’t like jeans tucked into boots. Why the hell not? I love how it looks! But after my boyfriend commented on how much he hated it after we passed someone wearing it, I feel like I’ve heard multiple times in the last couple days about how men in general hate it so much.
I can understand uggs. But knee-high leather boots? What’s not to like about jeans tucked into those!
And one of my best guy friends loves Cute Overload. Wheee!

I have no problem with women tucking their jeans in their boots

I wouldnt say I hate that look but I can think of many much cuter looks. Personal preference for all I guess but I think part of it is that boots have been in the forefront for so long that maybe the appeal has just warn off to the beholder.

don’t get me wrong, I’d much rather see the boots with a mini skirt but you can’t always get what you want.

Yea Im probably totally alone on this but boots in general on women are overdone in my opinion. Egads, espexially the pointy witch ones….blahlol. They are hot every once and a while but not to the extent that you see them now, they lost their appeal for me when every winter time clad woman seems to be sporting them lately. I have nightmares where I wake up to a cacophony of boot heels lol.

@ECM - you’re on your own on that one. In fact, I called a co-worker out on them today and she admitted she likes getting the looks at the office.

well I am glad and theres no reason not to wear them if she likes them and enjoys the positive attention. Just saying, me personally =)

I feel like a freak of nature when I read these “list” articles. I’m lucky if three items apply to me. I don’t think I am a list oriented person. Also, being raised with older brothers, my interests are not so typically female oriented. I grew up with Star Trek instead of Care Bears.

The picture of number 10 made me read this article. Great list. I’ve got to say that many men I know are actually HUGE gossips. The only diff is they tend to be less interested in celebrity gossip. When it comes to real world gossip, women get a bad rap relative to guys.

#11 is giving me the giggles, because men’s “tighty-whitey” briefs pretty much are the definitive sexless cotton brief underwear…

@ Katia, yea I can definitely understand why women like him and he’s milkin it lol
@lilo, agreed. I am definitely a chatty kathy just couldnt care less about celebrities. Real world is so much more juicy. =)
@vanya, yea you might have a point there. This will take a lot of courage on my part but I am a secure man so I can say it. A movie that has a man that looks good in briefs, few as there are, is love actually. The greek island looking guy.

wow.. i must be a very unusual woman. I could only find 3 things on the list that I even liked. 10, 19 and 30. Ok.. I admit it, I LOVE # 30.
If a guy doesn’t understand loving #30, then you need to find another guy…
just sayin !

I’m with the other ladies who find maybe 5 things tops on this list to be true. Then again, I’ve always said I’m a chick trapped in the body of a guy trapped in the body of a chick. Multiple bed pillows? Gah! One for the right side, one for the left side. Done!

Hmmm. Perhaps I should attend some form of Man Camp, because many of these things appeal to me. Reality/dating shows, no, never. And the jeans in boots looks…well, it looks good on long slender smooth legs.
But Beyonce? ewww

I had to laugh at #23, “Men who appear dirty and grimy, but are actually totally hot.” Captain Jack Sparrow and Wolverine, two perfect examples of that phenomenon. (At least for me.) Even Commodore Norrington didn’t become hot until he grimed up for POTC #2. I don’t know what it is.
Granted, things which make women swoon in concept would not be welcome in reality. Do I want a man who never bathes and has 15 gold teeth and dreads his goatee? No way. Well…maybe if it were Johnny Depp. But only him.
