Hm, I’d say this list is probably fairly accurate, if you modify the title to “Men in their twenties”…who are still really boys anyway. Age, patience, comfort in one’s own skin and regular exercise evolve most men beyond needing to care about these “lies” you’re so sure we tell ourselves.

I assume you write from experience, so I suppose I’d just like to say….sorry to hear it.

Even mine admits to these. As a matter of fact, he helped with a couple of them. Good man, that!

Of course not. NONE of them are lies for any of us. Clearly!

I love hearing your perspective but I KNOW you’re not American by your counterpoints. Most American men cannot fix the loo, will never stop a girl who’s heading down below, and definitely dream that every lesbian couple they see secretly wants to do them at the same time. They also think they were hot in high school. Will you be available for lessons perhaps?

All so funny. Quite a few apply to boyfriend of mine. Except the condom one. Regular condoms really are too tight at the bottom, so the difference between regular and large condoms is pretty noticeable during the deed.

Just to leaven things a bit .
On the condoms. It isn’t the size of the whole but the choking with the ring. We aren’t stupid. We know the thing stretches.
On the loo fixing. Well yes, some of us can fix it, most of us probably. But then I’ve had girlfriends that ‘believed’ they could cook who shouldn’t be allowed near a heat source more complex than an electric blanket.
On 15, we rarely think of another fellows squeeze beyond ‘he’s lucky’. We’re actually a bit stupid in that way since we truly don’t know and for the most part care what women are thinking.
On 14, blow jobs, I cannot speak for all men but whenever a woman heads in that direction I stop her. For apples sake I kiss that mouth.
Lesbians needing a good ‘seeing to’ in order to correct their ‘error’. Meah, frankly again men just don’t care, not really.
12, we know we’ll be done in some way by the mechanic. Our hope is we know enough that it forced him/her to become creative and not act upon some rube.
8,9,10,11; Our actions in the clothing department are habit, not designed. We buy the old fashioned jeans because we’ve always done so since the time they were in fashion. Why do we continue to buy tight underpants long after we know they are utterly uncomfortable. That’s also why so few of us go to a doctor. We don’t think our bodies are something viewed, as viewing.
We don’t see women ‘coming’ as a win.( Where there is a defeat.) If anything it’s like handing someone a present. If the recipient gets true joy from getting the gift, it makes the giving all the more pleasurable. But there isn’t a whole hell of a lot the giver can do about it if there is disappointment where the recipient asks for the shop receipt.
NO ONE thinks high school was a good time in the looks department. And quite frankly it tends to be in that period between our mothers buying our clothes and buying uniforms. It displays our colourblindness and utter lack of taste. And anyway the very few guys that look good at highschool don’t usually flower afterwards. But it tends to be women who feel the apex of looks was about 19.

Awesome list! Although one of them wasn’t a lie for me…

Definitely up top!
Love this list. My husband can actually fix the toilet, ’cause he’s a plumber, but everything else is pretty much dead on!
