Today, I played a game with my boyfriend. The point of the game is to write down everything you like about someone. I put down at least ten things for him. He had one thing down for me: my boobs. FML

It sounds like he may have been a little distracted during this game.

At least now you know why he's with you :( Sorry op

It sounds to me like he couldn't think of anything else because he got put on the spot... Guys don't like having to answer anything quickly, especially when it's something they could get in trouble for. Even if he had written 20 things you might have been like, "But why didn't you put ____ on there?! I thought you liked ____" Women are annoying like that...

I read 'guys don't like' and 'women are like that' and I knew that your comment wouldn't be valuable at all. Ugh... stereotypes and generalization... not my cup of tea.

I'm speaking from personal experience, and from what I've heard from family/ friends/etc. Don't most people consider their own experiences? Or are they so worried about being politically correct that if their experiences are even remotely similar to an existing stereotype they don't acknowledge them at all?

I totally agree. You can not put guys in a corner like that. He probably thought he was being funny. Ten things is also not very much to write down unless you have just stared dating.

You're true, we all speak from our personal experience. Nevertheless, I think it's important to watch out for bad arguments (aka generalization and stereotypes) if it comes from (y)our personal views. Saying 'guys don't like to answer quickly' is a bad argument, 'cause I'm pretty sure that 1) there are plenty of guys who do like it and 2) there are plenty of girls who don't like it either. Same goes for the 'Women are like that'. Yeah, I know I'm incredibly boring right now, but I have a well developed Generalization Alarm Bell in my head and I'm unable to ignore it. And I'm just pretty sure that any guy could think of anything else they like about their girlfriend. Blame the boyfriend for his lack of creativity, not his gender.

But I haven't met any guys who are like that... To argue like I have is, in itself, a generalization is it not? Not to mention a lie on my part... I want to know where you find these men, because I've moved around a lot and from what I've seen they're all the same :P

You're a narrow minded fool. You're probably one of those girls who's attracted to guys who batter their wives and girlfriends, then keep going back for more. You're a sexist piece of shit and if someone had made a similar generalization about women, you'd have been the first person screaming bloody murder. **** you and everything you stand for.

Oh yes. Nothing turns me on quite like assholes. So when are you free?

Lol I love how you're all butthurt because I made a generalization about men, but in the exact same comment I technically made a generalization about women as well. Get off your high horses, it's all the same damn thing.

You're mistaken. I don't hate people for their gender, I just don't like people in general. Why? Because they're terrible, selfish and hypocritical. If you all want to keep attacking me because I haven't had good experiences with the male gender (you guys made it sound like I seek these guys out, when really, they come to me and they're on their best behaviour when they do) then that's fine, but until someone proves me wrong I'm not changing my mind; People are assholes. It's hard for me to believe otherwise, given my experiences first and second hand.

That's the thing 160: As much as I gripe and bitch, part of me is still ready to give people a chance if I deem them worthy of one. I love how you're all making these wild accusations about the way I function in relationships based on a comment on a site people go to to bitch. I don't run around spouting feminist bullshit to every guy I meet, and I've had several people tell me I treated my boyfriends really well. Even one of my exes best friends told me he wished his girlfriend had been more like me when they were together. I'm not even sure how this got turned around on me, since all I said to begin with was that the girl clearly set a trap for her boyfriend and it's not fair to him. Maybe I am stupid but that hardly sounds sexist to me...

Oh they don't bother me at all. At least you're being civil about it. I just find it ironic that people are accusing *me* of ignorance when they aren't any more aware of some things than I am. I can admit when I'm wrong, but I didn't do anything to deserve a guy who refused to take me to the hospital when I needed it because he was worried about the cost (the taxi would gave been $8) and then, after making me walk to the ER, made me wait for five hours by myself while he bought $40 worth of roses as an apology. I may be the common denominator, but some guys are just stupid assholes on their own.

Depending on who was all involved in this game, you're boyfriend may not have wanted to get all mushy in front of his guy mates. Boobs was the macho answer. If he shows you he cares about more than just physical intimacy the rest of the time I wouldn't worry.

It's quite alright. I've been told by my husband that he's with me for my hair.

^ And yet, the only pic I've seen of you involves you hiding it under your big red hat. :p You're such a tease! ;)

I'm such a tease that I make strip teasing look like a person just getting undressed. I'll put a new one up of me hiding it under a pink hat if it helps at all :)

You know, for men that probably 8 reasons worth. Or more.

Hey! That's a good thing.. It's ways good to have nice **** ;) AND this is coming from a chick!

Yeah, It sucks he put that answer, But it also seems like he wasn't that into the game. Maybe play a different game next time. Good luck, OP :)

Yes, Or some RE5. My boyfriend and I beat that game together and we've been dating for 2 years

he probably just didn't want to play your terrible game
