Gender-Specific Complaints


Captroop

Recommended Posts

So we just moved into our new office building, and my female co-worker remarked to me she hates the layout of the new bathrooms. She says the paper towel dispenser is on the other side of the room from the sink. I say, "so?" And she says, "well your hands are dripping water on the floor while you walk to the towels." I don't get it. So she asks another female co-worker, and almost verbatim, she says, "Oh, I hate it because you're dripping water across the floor when you go to get a towel." I'm blown away by this because the men's bathrooms are laid out the same way and I never noticed. Would this bother any of the guys on here?

Are there any other gender-specific complaints you've heard, or your complaints that would confuse members of the opposite sex?

I must be a woman, because I hate that.  My gym has two hand dryers: one that's next to the sinks, but another that's on the wall on the other side of the urinals, perpendicular to the urinals. 

Main hand dryer in use, but someone's using a urinal?  Awkward.

​Well if it's dripping on the floor, then tuck it back in your pants, dummy.

Disclaimer: I do wash my hands everytime I visit the restroom

 

With that said: I think it is a little bothersome when people make a big deal of washing your hands after you pee.  

1. Was taught not to pee on my hands

2. Your junk should be cleaner than your hands

3. Your hands touch nasty poo all day

4. Your junk stays in your hopefully clean underwear all day (some Huddlers excluded)

5. Instead of washing my hands after I pee I should probably be scrubbing my junk in the sink....that air dryer would probably feel pretty nice

Women love to complain, it's in their nature and it's how they feel involved and communicate. It's almost a fault, women often believe if you're not openly and activity complaining about something, then there's nothing bothering you. It's hard for many of them to fathom someone who just doesn't complain. Thus the whole men don't communicate or talk about things argument. Of corse, they refer to it as 'speaking up', 'expressing yourself and not holding back when something bugs you', or 'standing up for something' rather than complaining, though that's what it is. Men on the other hand are more about action. If nothing can physically be done to remedy what is being complained about there is absolutely no reason to think about it or complain about it, even if it is bothersome, period. This is coming from the worst mistake of my life, a women's psychology class in college.

    • Can we stop with the stupid attention whore hot take type posts and just enjoy a winning streak for once? 
    • Every player has faults, and many times they can be categorized neatly into obvious traits that make analysis pretty straight-forward. A running back who thrives in zone schemes where their vision and patience is rewarded may struggle when asked to play a physical, violent, north-south style. A quarterback who can make every throw under the sun may never grasp the schematic purpose of the plays he is being asked to run and therefore constantly makes the wrong decision or no decision even with players running free. But the narrative for Bryce Young has almost consistently focused on his size and overall physicality in a league full of supermen, and how it places a hard limit on his ability to do things like shrug off blockers or throw tactical nuclear strikes from 80 yards out. Two seasons plus in hasn't put those concerns fully to rest, but if there is one underlining trait that could potentially derail Bryce's career, it's much more nebulous: his ability to recognize when a play is dead. The proclivity for turnovers that has haunted Bryce through his career doesn't always have the same underlying reasons as most typical young quarterbacks: adjusting to the speed of play, the tightness of NFL throwing windows, being able to diagnose much more advanced coverages, understanding the playbook, etc. One consistent thread is a defining trait that is both a curse and a strength: his ability to make plays off script, which has carried over from his Alabama days. For every miracle escape and razor-margin throw downfield like the 4th down play vs the Dolphins, you seem to have an inexcusable dropped fumble without even being touched (also see Dolphins game.) And the genesis of both is his underlying aggressiveness to make something happen with every snap, sometimes even when the play itself is simply unsalvageable. What often gets Young into trouble isn't an inability to execute a play, but his unwillingness to concede that the risk/reward ratio for a given decision simply isn't worth the attempt. There are few things that will drive a coach to putting a schematic leash on a player more quickly then when that player's outcomes become unpredictable, and even multiple miracle plays can be negated by a single colossal mistake. Where Bryce must find a balance is retaining the ability to conjure magic when needed, but to also keep his risk/reward instincts fully calibrated to what the team as a whole is comfortable with. No successful coach is entirely risk-averse, and many tend to be overly conservative in situations that decides the outcome of games, but "bad" Bryce sometimes emerges in situations where the only correct decision is to simply eat the ball and move on to the next play or next drive. If he can develop a better understanding of this flaw and work to overcome it without abandoning the traits that also make him special, he will take one step closer to becoming the player this franchise sacrificed so much for and redeeming that faith with the entire fanbase.
