The prime time for memories of embarrassing things you said or did to come is when your brain is shutting down and you are trying to fall asleep. At this point, not only can you not sleep, but you contemplate if it’s worth talking to people anymore and you try to calm yourself down by telling yourself that nobody even remembers what you said or did and it’s only a big deal for you.

In most cases, others really don’t care if you messed up or have been a bit awkward, but there are times when they really can’t forget. At least these women on Reddit can’t forget how men told them something embarrassing or even inappropriate.

27 Times Men Embarrassed Themselves By Saying Something Cringey, As Shared By Women In This Online Community My manager looked at me and said with all of my male coworkers in the room, "I hope I can try you out in bed. You must be a freak." I reported him and he was terminated.

    27 Times Men Embarrassed Themselves By Saying Something Cringey, As Shared By Women In This Online Community My brother and I was in a car accident. The other drivers fault. It's kinda easy to see that my brother and I are siblings we keep out of eachothers space. Like we sit on opposite sides of a row of seats. They sued the insurance company and we had to go testify in court. The guy said loudly infront of the judge and lawyers that ofcourse I'd lie for my boyfriend I f**k him. The guys lawyer told him in not so quiet voice that we are siblings. He turned beet red and lost the case since the evidence clearly showed he was at fault. I had to wait till we left the court to laugh my a*s off.

    Um, what about uttering the phrase, ‘coloured?’ Stinks of xenophobia, sexism at its nauseating finest and racism. Pathetic too that he is such a pathetic, disgusting and desperate human being that he thinks it’s ok. to sexually harass and demean women. Absolutely people who are rude do need to be called out! Had an exchange several months ago in a grocery store. A Caribbean cashier I really like was being reamed out by an Asian Karen when I approached her lane. The customer was saying,’ you hardly speak any English, you are stupid.’ She was batshit because the sale was 2 for xx and she wanted only item for 1/2 price. I spoke up saying something like, ‘ she isn’t allowed to change it.’ The woman then says, ‘she’s stupid,’ gesturing at the cashier. I said she’s smarter than you and she speaks better English than you!!! The sh*r that people dish out and the sh*t that’s people have to put up with is unreal! I feel very sorry for those who are on the reviving end.

    I think 'ending your virginity with someone' is a FANTASTIC way to say it. I'm always going to say it like that from now on. I've always said 'losing your viriginity' is nonsense, you're not losing anything, you're gaining a new experience. But it is a significant moment in most people's lives, so it's good to have a phrase for it. 'Ending your virginity' is the best one I've heard so far. And I also like that it's not 'he ended it', but 'you ended it with him', because it's a thing you do together (if it's consensual obviously), so your phrase is so much better.

    This might not actually be as insidious as it seems. It happened to my Indian friend when she visited the US as well. Basically, in the US and most of Europe an Asian person is someone from China/Japan/Thailand, etc. while an Indian person would be described as Indian.

    He may have been talking anthropology, possibly dated anthropology. (It's not my field.) People from places like India or Iran have traditionally been classified as belonging to the Indo-Aryan race, sometimes known as the Caucasian race. People with roots native to China or Japan were considered to belong to the Oriental race. (Sorry, I forget the technical term.) That may have been, consciously or unconsciously, the distinction he was trying to make. (Why he was making the distinction at all is different question.)

    I'll admit, I was in the wrong for years about this too. I thought India and surrounding regions were part of Middle East in their own right, but Middle East is a geopolitical grouping and not a landmass. Asia was China, Japan, Taiwan, Philipine, North and South Korea. Actually, even Russia is Asian. Basically, I mixed geopolitical spheres and continents.

    27 Times Men Embarrassed Themselves By Saying Something Cringey, As Shared By Women In This Online Community I was 19, married, pregnant with my second son, and working waiting tables and a guy that was sometimes a customer and sometimes a coworker told me I was obviously legal enough to not get him in trouble and looked young enough to please the “lover of young girls in him”…. Like what the actual f**k…

This was after he fought me for the bill despite the fact that I insisted on paying for myself and then I declined an offer for a second date. He also said that he was so glad I wore a dress to the date because he thought that women who wear pants and don't have soft skin are overbearing feminists and he could not date someone like that. ANYWAY... I think you might see why I ended that fast.

    I had a different thing said to me in my 20s by a much older, married, man. If I could go back I’d tell myself, he’s a loser who doesn’t deserve to be thought of ever again, let alone every time you look at your feet. Whoever said that doesn’t deserve to live in your head

    I shaved my arms in grade school because they were so hairy. I HATED that and was made fun of. A few years later, they no longer seemed that hairy so I guess I grew into it. Lol

    I hate my arms also, I gained weight in them, I am still trying to work on loving myself and if I ever put my trust into someone to meet them and they said this id be embarrassed.

    You can’t wash your privates, because touching them makes you gay. A can of Axe Body Spray a day should do the trick.

    These sound like the same type of men who don't wash their butts or wipe after using the toilet because anything going near the butt is considered "gay". (That was an actual study that was done about straight men)

    Fun fact: extensive study of VIking bones has shown that they had much lower sexual dimorphism than most other surrounding ethnic groups. In layperson's terms - their men were more feminine than other European men... That can be attractive, but not in the He-Man way that Mr Douche who's quoted up there probably meant.

    I (afab and gender fluid) often have people assume I’m a dude when traveling… and I pretty much go along with it bc it makes me feel safer. However, I have delivered some truly epic burns to high school douchebags asking whether ‘it’ was a boy or a girl. Suffice to say it was on a public bus full of high schoolers, on the way home, and involved veiled threats of severe bodily harm. I may have solicited a collective “OOOOOOOOO!!” from most of the people on the bus. And yes, I am very smug about it.

    27 Times Men Embarrassed Themselves By Saying Something Cringey, As Shared By Women In This Online Community I was an extra on a film set and I had to smoke a prop cigarette- I don't smoke but I was cool with it and had agreed prior to filming, thought it would be an interesting experience. I was doing a scene with an older (and incredibly attractive) Russian man. In between takes, I wasn't holding it between my fingers to give my hands a break, but there was also nowhere to put it so I was holding it differently. Dude snatches it from my hand, puts it between my fingers to show me the "correct way" and says "typical womans." I was immediately turned off. Prior to shooting, I had noticed him and was low key crushing on him hard, so I was very excited to be picked doing the scene together. Well that took a complete 180. After we wrapped around midnight, he approached and said ," It's very late, I could give you a ride home." I'm pretty sure it wasn't even offered as a question and more of a command, it made me uneasy. I guess it was more of a weird interaction, but the first thing was certainly embarrassing for me.

    I mean...it could have been he confused them with someone else who he'd heard had been on maternity leave, and he thought she'd lost the baby weight? But strange phrase, to congratulate them on maternity leave rather than a baby - unless are in a country where maternity leave is not an automatic entitlement, and something harder to get approved??

    I had a guy tell me at the prescription counter "You'll probably pop out that kid before they get done filling out our orders." The pharmacist who was obviously overloaded looked annoyed, but smiled when I said "Thanks..but I'm not pregnant. This is all me." And the guy's face turned red.
