I know you women are savvy, but don't fall into the trap of thinking you've got us all figured out. You could be wrong about a few things. For example:
Men are always thinking about sex.
Not always. Sometimes we think about football or food. If a guy falls off a building, I doubt he's thinking about sex on the way down...unless he's thinking about how he'll never have sex again.
Men get involuntary boners all the time.
They aren't involuntary. We were thinking about sex.
Men don't listen.
Sorry, what? No, you're right, we don't listen when you try to tell us important things when we're half-asleep or playing XBox or watching a game. Want our attention? Tell us right before sex.
Men think they are better than women.
Some do, but some don't. Me, I'm well aware that my wife, my sisters and most of my female friends are smarter and hipper than I am. And I'm okay with that.
Most men want to offer solutions even when one isn't needed/wanted.
You're welcome.
Men don't care how they look.
Wrong. We're as insecure as you about our weight, our hair, our bodies. We just don't admit it.
Men don't like affection.
Everybody needs affection, male or female. That's one of the reasons we like women so much: you're there to give us a hug and kind words when we need it. And we need it. Of course, the fact that affection often leads to sex doesn't hurt, either.
Men love to argue.
No, we don't!
Men love porn.
Yeah, okay. It's true.
Men have difficulty thinking outside the box.
Heh, you said box.
Men are too picky about women.
We're not nearly as picky as you are about yourselves or each other.
Men can't multitask.
I'm writing and thinking about boobs at this very moment, so you're wrong.
Men never grow up and stop thinking that farts are funny.
Well, they are!
Men don't cry at movies.
We cry at movies, just not always the same kind of movies that make women cry. Women cry about romance, failed romance and dead friends. Guys cry about dead dogs (Old Yeller, My Dog Skip), baseball (Field Of Dreams, The Natural), and war (Glory, Saving Private Ryan).
Men can't ever find things.
Wrong, every guy knows where his porn stash is.
Men are big babies when we're sick.
Yeah, okay, I'll give you that one. Blame our mothers.
When a man asks where in the house he can find a particular item, he really wants you to bring it to him.
Why not? You're already up.
Men masturbate all the time.
Not true. I'm not masturbating right now. I need both hands to type. I'm almost done typing, though.

"When a man asks where in the house he can find a particular item, he really wants you to bring it to him"
ARGGGGH my bf does this all the time.
BF "Where are the keys"
Me "I don't know have you looked for them"
BF "you had them last can you get them for me"
Me "No i'm pretty sure i didn't have them."
BF "You definitely had them. I seen you with them. Did you lose them?"
30 minutes of self doubt rummaging in bag, under sofa, in BIN
BF "Oh here they are!" (in his pocket)
WHERE YOU LEFT THEM ALL ALONG!!!
Drives me crazy!
I love this post! It all seems so clear now! haha! =)
"Men are big babies when we're sick."
Oh. My. God. Seriously. Most women (including myslef) LOVE to give affection and attention, but I just can never handle a sick man. They just ask for so much!
