Guys that think because they're male they somehow do everything better than ya. Guys that have no respect for women, especially the woman driving the fu@king car

Yep my ex even thinks so. He went on to say it was a proven fact that men are better drivers than women. IMO I think he's a slight chauvinist. He also is against having women in the army because we're apparently more emotional than men (which is true), because we get periods (this was totally sexist! There are supplies for that), and because men in the marines (according to him) are pigs when it comes to women! Hello? They can defend themselves against them! Seriously!

I hate to go off on a red herring here, but I also can't stand some people's mentality that it's a woman's place to be barefoot, pregnant, and in the kitchen!! !!!!!! This one really chaps my butt!!

So basically I can't deal with chauvinistic attitudes!

You should've retaliated with "If men are better drivers, why do they have more accidents, ergo pay more for insurance?"

just read and posted regarding "men not giving a sh*t attitude"... funny because it is mostly an act and one man actually said that he had women chasing him because of this treatment... GEEZ... the question is... what kind of women??...

I wish "manipulation" wasn't the main goal of men... how about honesty?... just like the herds of "sheep"... most men do it (not all but most)... try a bit of honesty... what is it with men that they NEVER tell the reasons for the lack of attraction or for that matter interest?... don't want to hurt someone or give a woman the idea that you might be interested in them?? ever think if you were more honest you might get what you want out of life?? just my 2 cents... I find many times there are mis-understandings... Geez... imagine a little communication and honesty... wow what a concept

There are too many to list. However, while I CAN deal with them when I must, I choose not to when I can.

My EX was like that. LOL I am sooooo fortunate to have a hubby who has complete confidence in my driving ability. In fact, he KNOWS and brags, that I'm way better with a clutch than he is...and he can drive big rigs. He said, "Shoot, you wouldn't have ANY trouble driving a semi...and that's a nice thing to hear." When the kids started driving, he told them that they should ask Mom to help them learn the stick shift, because I could probably show them better than he could, how to drive them." Again...really nice and so much different than so many men out there!

As for the poster who commented on higher insurance rates for men, because of more accidents...that is so true. Be sure to share that the next time your driving is questioned. To be fair though....then next time he disses on you for doing something "wrong", ask him to explain to you what you SHOULD have done or should do! Many people could use a few lessons in driving....because they're not nearly as good as they think they are.
