ASK 30 WOMEN<br />

WHAT IS SOMETHING YOU WISH ALL MEN<br />

WOULD KNOW?<br />

“Yeah, I know.” “I knew that already.” “I know everything.”… False! You know some things, but not<br />

everything, about the important ladies in your life. You really don’t, and we can prove it. We asked 30<br />

women “What is something you wish all men would know?”<br />

1. Don’t try to fix it - just listen!<br />

2. Chivalry is not dead. We<br />

always appreciate when you<br />

hold open doors, or offer to carry<br />

our things.<br />

3. Women are like cats. We<br />

want attention when we want<br />

attention. But too much and we<br />

might bite/claw/scratch.<br />

4. Reaching to hold hands in the<br />

car or in public actually means<br />

a lot.<br />

5. It’s not always about the<br />

big extravagant things. Little<br />

gestures like doing laundry and<br />

dishes are appreciated.<br />

6. When you leave the toilet seat<br />

up, we fall in. It’s not fun getting<br />

wet buns!<br />

7. It’s the little<br />

things that<br />

mean a lot.<br />

8. <strong>The</strong>re is<br />

nothing<br />

wrong with<br />

owning an<br />

expensive<br />

handbag.<br />

Nothing!<br />

11. When we are venting, a<br />

great question to ask is, “Are<br />

you just venting or do you want<br />

me to help you solve this issue?”<br />

Because sometimes we just<br />

need to get it out but we will<br />

handle it on our own.<br />

12. Even strong and<br />

independent women appreciate<br />

hugs, hand holding, and kisses<br />

on the forehead.<br />

13. Women like to be told they<br />

look nice. Everyone likes to be<br />

complimented.<br />

14. “You look fine” is not an<br />

acceptable answer.<br />

15. How lucky you are to not<br />

have to sit on a toilet in a public<br />

restroom.<br />

16. <strong>The</strong>y<br />

should know<br />

women are the<br />

stronger sex.<br />

19. <strong>The</strong>y could avoid two<br />

hour long conversations by<br />

communicating well for five<br />

minutes.<br />

20. We always notice when you<br />

check out another woman. No<br />

matter how hard you try to hide<br />

it - we know.<br />

21. We love any romantic<br />

gesture.<br />

22. How much cramps hurt.<br />

23. No matter what we say,<br />

we always appreciate things<br />

like unexpected flowers or<br />

compliments or just coming up<br />

behind us for a hug that isn’t<br />

attached to any expectations.<br />

FLOWERS?<br />

IT'S NOT EVEN<br />

MY BIRTHDAY!<br />

24. We like Star<br />

Wars too.<br />

25. We shave<br />

our legs for<br />

you, not<br />

ourselves.<br />

26. A man<br />

who cooks is a<br />

dream come true.<br />

27. We take so long getting<br />

ready to look good for you.<br />

9. We know<br />

they’re not gonna<br />

understand us, but<br />

at least try.<br />

10. Money<br />

is not<br />

impressive.<br />

17. How to put the lid<br />

down.<br />

18. We need<br />

to hear “I love<br />

you” even if<br />

you are out<br />

with your guy<br />

friends.<br />

28. I need to hear how you feel<br />

about me often.<br />

29. Stop competing and start<br />

listening. It's a team project, not<br />

a race.<br />

30. My mood swings are<br />

hormonal, not personal.
