The Difference between males and females

[Melissa]

Well I agree both genders play games, but sorry ladies, women take the CAKE at game-playing, and it's not even just with romantic relationships. Women play games with each other too. I've found it so interesting as I get older to see how obvious that is, how men can get pissed at each other or whoever, yet they don't STAY mad for long and get over it and don't hold grudges, whereas women can be the opposite and will stay mad and hold grudges for ALL ETERNITY

Mel, I love you. You are the peace maker in every thread and come off just as sweet as you are in person. BRAVO reply. What you just described is my bros GF to a TEE. Every job she has ever held but then destroyed was because of snickering women co-workers who talk shit and tattle and act fake in front of her face. Actually made her quit a couple jobs with all of the backstabbing that goes on. She always said she gets along with men better, lol.

Awe thanks! I'm just too much of a tomboy, always have been
always will be I know my opinion isn't popular with most
women, but I don't care There is no denying females are the
drama gender, it's even SO obvious with little girls! I KNOW, I'm
raising one of each, and man what a difference between my boy
and girl!

I've worked in the same place for almost 14 years now though,
and have to say, I'm very lucky to work with mostly awesome
women and we have all been working together a long time, have
seen each other through good times and hellish times, and we
have a blast together. I love my workplace!

I am with you Mel. Women are the more hyper gender. And I hate the high school back stabbing breed. They give us all a bad name. I usually have more fun hanging out with guys for the most part. But some women are cool. They are just as sick of the drama queens as you and I are. The mean girls don't seem to grow up, they just get more devious!

Just for fun, here's a little battle going on facebook between two girls:

Sarah ****: you are so ugly slut
Alyssa**** *********: suck it, dont hate cause you aiiiiiintttttt
Sarah ****: donchya ever thinks why you'll never have a boyfriend?
Alyssa**** *********: dayummmmm bitch dont judge!

An ACTUAL facebook conversation.

Yeah, I really think it's a maturity issue for sure. And woman of any age can have maturity issues. That's a fact. I do think the Internet social networking is making it worse though. For the younger age groups. It's much easier to talk this way to each other when it's not to their faces! I worry about my teen daughter. Not that she'll do it, but be a victim I guess. She already has issues with a couple of her friends. The girls are just so mean to each other. And this is FRIENDS. Not just the typical mean girl in class who doesn't like her. When i was in school, i could count on my close friends. We had loyalty and didnt act jealous or criticize each other. They play this jealousy game and say things behind backs and it really bugs me. Because my daughter is sensitive and doesn't get it. I don't get it. I don't get involved other than talking to her. I told her what it comes down to is you have to decide if they are a real friend. And in some cases you may have to set them loose. It's hard though! So if these girls at 14/15 are any indication for the 20 somethings, then I guess I see it. But it's a people issue. You just can't generalize. I'm raising my daughter to set better standards for herself. And I hope it works. Boys play games too. They are just different games. She has boys after her all the time, especially now that she is in high school. And she isn't allowed to date yet and on top of that she's very picky anyway. Some of these boys are as bad as the girls though.

I agree w/^^^^ ... really, how many times have you seen females around here behave this way. I'd like to add to the maturity issue and take it a step or two further ...there is also the matter of respect for others and self respect ...some PEOPLE just never get it ...

Once again ...not all females behave this way ...not when they were twenty and not later in life ...some do, yes ...but some are also prostitutes, thieves and murderers ...

I never did that, even in high school... the whole stuck-up, catty thing - especiially like what's on that Facebook thing Travis posted... (not to say I never have... 1 or 2 random days once a month, I can't lie... LOL) I think that's why I get along better with guys... LOL!! As my sister says, "guys = dramaless" (well, ok that's not even true... I've run across guys who are great big ol' giant whining DRAMA QUEENS... and yeah, straight ones!).

I just don't put up with it and I don't put up with people who bring that into my life on a constant basis. I had to cut someone out for that, being all stuck up, demanding, judgemental, rude, extremely catty, etc... It was just too stressful and exhausting. I have plenty of female friends, and my whole department at work is female - and overall, they're a great group of women, and the two women in my life that are closest to me, my two best friends... I mean, we just don't do drama. I think I can count on ONE hand the number of times there was any kind of (what I consider serious) discord or drama among us over the years. It's so infrequent that it's almost unbelievable. But no one is perfect, and disagreements happen and it's ok. It's part of relationships.

The problems come when you get people who can't just accept that part, work it out, talk about it, apologize and move on. The very few times I've ever had situations like that with my best friend, it lasts - literally - an hour TOPS. Usually its just minutes before one of us or both realize "this is absolutely stupid, we're not children, and I've just behaved badly" and we hug and apologize and it's over and done.

And MG, you are totally right. Some people just never get it. It's ok to slip up and have a bad moment between friends - we all do it, we will all continue to do it. But when it's a constant lack of respect and just downright bitchiness... no room for that, move along please.

Men and women are intrinsically offset personality-wise against each other....Each is playing a game. The games are different. Men are usually playing the game of: I would like to have sex, and I am interested....I want it...Women, on the other hand, are playing a totally different game: I would like to have sex...but I need to pretend I'm not interested so I can find out if you get it. A women needs to determine if you 'get it'. If you have that masculine thing handled. If you understand attraction. I think women want sex too..but they have a lot of options. Anyy woman can have sex just about anytime she wants to...so they can be a little more selective. Inside, a woman is saying this - 'Look, I like you...of all the guys I have to choose from, you interest me right now....but that doesn't mean it is going to stay this way. Every few minutes my mood and feelings towards you is going to change, this feeling could range from I hate you, I love you, to I'm bored to I wanna have sex with you...and anywhere in between. As long as you can keep me wanting more I'm yours...BUT, as soon as I feel I've figured you out, or I feel like you're becoming predictible, my attraction to you will switch off. There will be nothing I will be able to do about it....so don't screw this up.'

....and so it goes....

I got nothing... LOL... except that women and men both want it... LMAO... most men are direct in their approach and most women think about the situation, the consquences, before they decide.... however, its only a generalization... and there are some women who will be direct...and some men who will be sensative... and as some have said... the maturity issue in going about life and the attraction to the opposite sex... has a lot to do with everything about getting what you want... and of course the last thing is... you cant force the issue... both have to want it mutally...

Best thing you will hear all month: Attraction is not a choice
