Well, know one thing we don't have in common.

When girls talk to eachother, they can go on about only one subject for over 15 minutes. Truly I've seen it.
Guys on the other hand: a friend and I, we can talk about three or four things in under 5 minutes. And we've said all there is to be said. The bare facts and maybe an opinion or two. That's all.

EDIT: Yes, my 400th post! Whoohoo!!!!!!!!!

Girls hold grudges. Guys don't. (Friends, that is. I never piss off my female friends, it always comes back to bite me long after I'd forgotten what I did)

I don't know if that's really true. My best friend is a dude who will never forget any wrong done to him by anyone. I've done stupid things before, and not a single one of my female friends will bring it up.. But he never forgets. It's a terrible thing.

One big difference: Fighting. A lot of females I know don't like to argue.. They like to hit. Us guys just like to resolve our differences with words. Which is why we get beat down by so many ladies.

Anyway, there are a lot of guy/girl differences. But I'll tell you one thing - I can drink most guys under the table. =3

I know its just personal choice RaiRai. :p

Actually in the original version my imagined men got as far as tossing their friend in the tub. Many of my friends have woken up in the tub. Its the stripping your buddy down, cleaning and changing him into jammies that I didn't see happening with guys. I just found the whole (stairs! Screw that! Funnier)

I know many men who gossip btw

In fact I know that in this day and age the stereotypes are breaking down and a lot of people don't fit in them anymore. It's just a fun topic about the ways in which the opposite sex mystifies us.

Oh new story.

I once had the idea for a story in which a women somehow was turned into a man and I knew I had to put the whole bathroom thing in. First bit of weirdness, is when this guy stands up and announces he's going to the washroom....and waits for one of his buddies to join him. Which of course they don't do; and just look at him funny. (why do women go to the washroom in groups anyway?)

The second, is if this women turned male, actually talked to someone in the washroom. Or picked a urinal right beside someone else when there is one already available not next to another person. Which I suppose they wouldn't do, picking instead a stall just out of habit. But talking, in the washroom. That is something that most men I know don't do.

Your washrooms are much nicer then ours though...some even have couches...I have rarely seen a mens washroom with a couch.

About that whole "girls are more stubborn" thing that somebody said, well, I think thats a load of bull shit. Guys, as a whole, have always been much more stubborn that girls, and that's a genetic thing too. See, the female brain is not one track, like the male brain, so they are much less likely to be stubborn as a mule than a man would be. The problem is that male stubbornness is not the same thing as female stubbornness. Generally, and this is a big generality, the things that females are stubborn about, males could care less about, and as such, will just do whatever their wives/girlfriends/whatever-else-there-is tells them to do. There are about three things that a man will be stubborn about, and those things are normally these: Power(money, land, political positions, servants, etc.), Women, Pride. Take Hitler for example: When he knew he was about to be overcome by the allies, he had the man power to stop them, if he put everything into it, but, as his stubborn-ness was not Pride or Women, but Ethnic-Cleansing(as he called it), he put all of his power into killing as many Jews as he could. The world could do without such single-minded stubbornness, as it normally leads to many deaths. But I've never heard of a woman killing millions of people because of any of the reasons I've listed that men have, so I have to wonder if women are the better...

Bathrooms
When traveling in groups it is common for females to congregate in such places as groups often as large as six people. It is believd to be part of a tribal tradition known as "Let's see how to make men miserable."

Males however avoid all contact in the bathroom. They travel there alone and will hesitate to even use a urinal if a neighboring one is occupied. Few words are ever exchanged in the confines of the urine scented chamber.

Both sexes join in the bonding ceremony of watching movies. Females tend to watch to see well written stories of the human sprit and how love conquers all. Males just want to watch people die and stuff explode.

Another difference...Males seem to find that speaking like the Croc Hunter Steve Irwen amusing. I however have just been punched in the arm by two females who apparently find it extremely annoying.
