Does the Loch Ness Monster really exist? What happened to the crew of Mary Celeste? And what are guys up to when they're taking long showers? While we might never find out the answers to the first two mysteries, the latter has just been revealed. Together with a bunch of other men secrets most girls probably have no clue about.

"We are task orientated" absolutely true! we respond better with, "can you get me a blanket?" our brain process that faster than "I'm cold" statement.

I suspect a reasonable percentage of women would not know this. Good advice.

This is definitely something everyone needs to remember, that guys can be mentally ill and have body issues and insecurities the same way everyone does and it's important to accept that and give them the space they need to express that

I think everyone does this, I'm a girl and I zone out sometimes thinking about something random and then I realize I've been staring at someone all that time

This is kinda sad because it makes me feel like OP isn't getting enough hugs and everyone who wants hugs should be hugged often

Lucky you. I had my hairdresser tell me I looked like a junkie because I had let my hair grow out. Needless to say I didn't visit her again.

I'm glad you didn't visit her again, she sounds terribly unprofessional!

So you're telling me you used to change your haircut more ofthen than once every 4 years? During my whole life I only had something like 4 haircuts (the last change was because I started balding so I shaved everything...) and I even know guys who have the same haircut since they were kids... :)

I had a girl in a store tell me not to get short sleeved button up shirts because only old men wear them. It's been 10 years since then and I only get long sleeved button up shirts and then roll up the sleeves.

She was correct. You probably look like a serious, let's-get-s**t-done kind of guy with rolled up sleeves!!!

We love to be told we look nice many people don’t realize it but we are just as self conscious as you ladies are

A guy I liked in high school wore glasses one day and I had said I thought boys with glasses are cute. It’s 16 years later and my husband has worn glasses ever since.

I told this classmate that I talk to that his hair looks better when it's down and he has kept his hair like that the next day too.

Seven years now on a beard. GF that suggested (and fawned over it) only lasted six months. The beard has been better to me than she was anyway 😂

A female friend once told me I looked nice in a sweater I was wearing. I bought it in six colors the next day.

I've known so many guys who clung to a particular style because a woman complimented them on it once. I get it, I really do, but look around about once every five years and consider updating your look, fellas.

My son cut his hair short for a new school 6 years ago & hated it! His black hair is now halfway down his back, almost to his waist again!

I kept having bad hair days. So I shaved the lot off. Problem solved. Not something women tend to do.

As a female, I did something similar... I cut it as short as I could while still feeling comfortable with it. It's super short, but I couldn't shave it... It's not very socially acceptable for women to go bald, and not everyone (male or female) look good with all shaved off. But I can definitely agree that less hair to worry about is a blessing.

You don't know what "nice" means in women's dicionary, do you?

I laughed at this for way too long, because I can't think of a single time I tied something down and didn't say that.

And it also smells nice. I think shampoo smells better than most of the expensive perfumes.

Throw things to us. Like the TV remote or the car keys. Or a cup of coffee. It does, however, depend on our level of trust in the t****r's tossing skill.

Yeah. Sometimes they just happen. At very unfortunate times. As a teenager it would almost invariably happen while in church. And no, it had nothing to do with what was happening during the sermon!
