Yeah, there are things I don't understand about women, but I stopped finding them funny long ago. I don't know, maybe I'm just growing bitter.

Different occasion/outfits do call for different footwear. Men always wear a variation of the same thing...pants. That's it. Long pants, short pants, casual or dress, that pretty much covers it. Women, on the other hand, wear leggings, pants, shorts, capris, skirts, dresses, and all variations of each. Our much greater variation in wardrobe really does require a greater variation in accompanying footwear. I think that tends to become a fascination for many of us...so many clothes..and what shoes can we wear with them? I freely admit I have more shoes than I'd like to say, but there isn't a pair in there that doesn't have a place in my wardrobe.

I, too, don't understand why farting is hilarious.

Also, why a guy can remember the past 20 years of statistics for his favorite team, but he can't remember my birthday.

The only people I've encountered who are obsessed with a guy's height are short guys on the Internet.

Regarding shoes I have only two pairs and a pair of slippers.

Regarding using the word cute.I saw a cute bunny wabbit in my yard today.lol

But why specifically the word "cute" to describe fashionable clothes? I noticed that the word tends to be used in the younger crowds only, so my question might be hitting the wrong demographic :X

Shoes : women as gadgets : men. Why do you NEED the X24S Gigatron Hyperpower 4000? You just do, right? Why does my husband own four drills? (And I know some of you guys are scoffing, "Four drills? Bah! I have seventeen and Mikita sends me a Christmas card every year!")

Well, a lot of them read Cosmo, and Womens World, other magazines, and when Nicole Kidman broke up with Tom Cruise, rather than dish on all his other idiosyncrasies, she simply interveiwed in all those mags commenting about how she could stop wearing flats now, because IT BOTHERED HIM SO MUCH, that he's a friggn midget and she towered over him.

And she's one of their heroines, so they all took it to heart.

And it's not obsessed, it's actually a nonobsession with them, they simply look over the jockey and right at the B-ball player. If you asked them if they even saw the jockey they'd say ..no.

4. Why women are obsessed with INSTANT MESSENGER
1. TVSG, women like a guy to have a good relationship with their Mom because sometimes they equate it with you treating them with as much respect as you would give to your own mother. This, however does not apply if you are a spineless weiner and you let your mother interfere in your relationships;
2. Sometimes it is just conversation, other times it is about whether or not you are stable in your job;
3. I am not sure what you mean by this. I am more attracted by a guy wearing a suit and reading a newspaper, than I would be to a guy who was wearing dirty jeans and a t-shirt, unless I had just seen him leaving a worksite.
5. I don't know any women obsessed with Instant Messenger.

PS You should have started a new thread for your "groupies" with any of these questions. They are all suitable thread material except for the IM question, in my opinion. Some your "groupie members may well be suffering from TVSG withdrawal syndrome.

Why, when the burning questions are answered by one gender or the other, does the opposite sex still seek the answers? In other words, why do we not listen to and hear each other? Funny if you're a standup comic. But I'm not.
