It's a common trope among many guys to claim that they simply don't understand women - whether it is willful ignorance or not is another question, but there seems to be a fashionable yet lazy acceptance that women are a complete mystery so there is no point in trying.

Well, there's no excuse now fellas. Turns out, all we had to do was ask! Women on Twitter have decided to take matters into their own hands with the viral hashtag #WhatMenDontKnowAboutWomen.

While they clearly don't speak for all women, the discussion is incredibly insightful and educational, as posters take turns sharing their experiences and frustrations about the kinds of things that just seem to pass many men by. Have you got your notepad at the ready guys? There are some really important points here (and some funny ones too!).

I would say that 90% of women want pockets in our clothes. And for some reason, nobody wants to give us pockets. Either top company execs want to sell handbags, or they just think they know what we want more than us... which would be typical.

    Why would anyone think that someone would want an unsolicited pic?

    I am a man and have literally no idea why some people feel the need to do this. Like, has a random d**k pic ever been met with a positive response? Does it feel good just to know a girl you like is looking at your d**k 2nd hand? Is it just misplaced parity ("I would be delighted to receive random pictures of female genitals, so she must be delighted to receive random pictures of male genitals")?

    I will never understand this, why would anyone think someone would appreciate an unsolicited d**k pick. If you receive a d**k pic then post it on their Facebook or Instagram page for everyone to see lol. Maybe don’t coz I don’t know the laws regarding that.

    I wasn't even on a dating site it was a meet and greet a friend site my profile pic was a yellow tshirt sweater and nicely done makeup. It was a pre funeral picture. cousin died and I just liked how I looked so I used it. If I was more covered up I'd be a nun. But apparently looking basic pretty was enough for this ichabod meets troll meets hairy bush pig looking nasty guy to sent full nude of him pleasuring himself, my pic made him do it. Yeah nothing more of a turn on than a pre funeral photo on a meet friends site. It was not even a dating app. It was something like meetup kijiji has (they have a meet people section)

    Always keep about 50 pictures in an album, a mixture of deformed d**k, STD-ed, gay sex, animal sex, and etc. Once you get an unsolicited d**k pics, blast all 50 images to them and wish them good luck.

    The amount of woman that say they don't want "D" pics is amazing. I know many who have them and love getting and looking at them if they think it's a nice "D". They truth is that women are just as bad, if not worse, than men. Women are so much worse than men, especially if there are no men around to hear about the thing they're talking about. Example: Men don't always tell each other about their woman's body part sizes and what they do in bed, and so on. But women? You better believe that her friends know how big her man is, what he does or doesn't do, what his habits are good or bad, and how he is in bed. If women found out that their man was sharing this stuff, there would be hell to pay and the guy would spend a year in the dog house if he survived. This is where the double standard comes into play.

    If a man sends a woman a picture of his privates, it's sexual harassment. If a woman sends a man a picture of her privates, it's a sexy and exciting present. It's almost as if men and women were different.

    When your avatar picture shows you like a bent over hooker from the corner of the street, they assume you are one, and send to you a pic of the object they think you are so familiar with.

    we don't want your unsolicited slutty pics either. lol look at her thumbnail icon. she's literally doing a s**t pose with some slutty name like "daddybeex" talking about unsolicited d**k pics. maybe she'd get less of those if she didn't post so much unsolicited sexualized s**t herself

    Riiight coz getting a close up d**k pick sent to you privately is the same as someone’s thumbnail/avatar etc. I’m in no way saying that women don’t send unsolicited pics because of course they do, men and women both need to stop.

    However, this can be abusive too. Men, you don't have to let a woman you're dating to invade your privacy and show her your texts etc! You're entitled to not show them. And if she looks at your phone without your consent, then it's a big red flag.
