Yes, this creepy picture speaks volumes. And for some, it’s all too familiar. Do you have a guy who just can’t seem to control his animal like manners when he’s eating? Or one that takes his stinky shoes off and leaves them in front of you to inhale the stench?
I think we’ve all been there. The secret of breaking these bad habits is to speak up. Don’t just roll your eyes or be silent. This will allow him to continue acting like a slob. He needs to learn consideration and have common courtesy.
Men are not a psychic species- they need to be told the things they are doing that are displeasing you. And not after the fact, or during an unrelated argument. It must be at the precise moment he is totally annoying or grossing you out, that you need to say something.
If men are given free reign and the ability to operate unchecked, you will find yourself in a hopeless relationship. You need to share equal responsibility. Men need to control their masculine urges that compel them to act like pigs, and women need to step up and make it known how they feel about it. As I’m sure many of you already do!
Men may not admit it, but they do need a challenge. While being spoon-fed is about as good as it gets, as time wears on, so does the boredom. Being in control all of the time has it’s advantages, yes, but having no rivalry or someone to tango with gets old. Having bad habits and manners is one thing, but choosing not to squash them when needed is another. Trust me, your relationship will begin to degenerate. Men will start to walk all over you because you allow it, and you in turn, will resent him.
Women are not fans of bad manners, so when men act like they are one generation removed from primordial antecedent, it’s not flattering. Celebrating with a grandiose display of arrogance is definitely the bond that unites them. Problem being, we can’t stand that behavior. They just don’t seem to care.
There’s a wonderful symmetry in embracing the harmony as well as the discord generated by all of our differences. Some differences prove more difficult to manage, but by working together, the two of you should be able to come to an agreeable compromise. Allow them to burp and fart, at appropriate times (with their buddies), and the less nagging they will have to endure. And for men, that should be enough motivation to shape up!

i quite agree with you, and that is why i love to enslave men, because most times they think women are to tolorate their bad manners. no one should be underated in a relationship. good post nice write up.
