21 more reasons why a lot of men are such dogs (with even more apologies to cute Benjies out there)

1 - Because when they betray you, they say it "was nothing" and "didn't mean anything". But they did it none the less. And often not just once. Oh, but they do say they're sorry, which is nice (ahem).

2 - They'll share things about you with their closest friends that they have never even thought to say to your face (despite how long you've been together).

3 - In an argument, they hate it when you're right, and will fight you to win a superior position (despite the fallibility of their argument), even if it means your humiliation, pain and/or tears.

4 - They behave in a relationship with you as if - without any previous discussion/agreement - you automatically said yes to do the (1) washing of their laundry (2) washing up of their stuff (3) cleaning of the bathroom/toilet and (4) tidying of the apt/house (etc) and (5) when they do a household chore, you should behave as if they've found and demonstrated the secret to life, the universe - oh, and everything else besides, otherwise you are ungrateful and selfish.

5 - They fight hardest for the survival of their relationship with you only at the point where you say "Enough is Enough and no more." Only then do they fight, whinge, moan, simper, whimper and complain like you've never heard before. Then, you hear them protest how much they love you, how much they care, how they'll do anything to stay together, how they are lost without you." And more, besides.

6 - And until you said no to the "relationship", how all of the above protestations were never heard before, neither sight nor sound from the guy.

7 - Most don't understand the difference between being strong as a man and being a bully.

8 - Most don't understand the difference between their fresh sweat and their stale smell, and moan/get grumpy about your asking them to take a shower/have a wash.

9 - Whatever they say about supporting and respecting you as a woman/person, they won't hesitate in private to behave/act the dog in what they view or purchase about women when you're not around.

10 - They think a discussion involving emotions (invariably yours, since they're in denial with theirs) is embarrassing and can't even bring themselves to hear what you have to say.

11 - Their egos often know no bounds, even if their insistence on the gratifications of their ego debase you entirely.

12 - They're more concerned about how they look, than what they're saying at the time.

13 - When they're pissed off/angry with you - you, whom they otherwise protest to care so much about - they verbally attack and are aggressive to you as if their lives depended on your silence/submission/acquiescence.

14 - They're not jealous or possessive, they just want to know (1) who you're seeing tonight (2) where you're going (3) how long you're going out for (4) why you haven't called them back (5) that you can reassure them of how much you love them.

15 - They don't understand why you get upset when in front of you they stare/goggle away at another woman, and then say it doesn't mean anything.

16 - They will insist and persist in lying to you, even when you've caught them in a lie.

17 - They protest their innocence to you the most when they have the least ground for doing so.

18 - They don't understand how or why you are no longer turned months/years later on by the 'cute' moves they did with you at first.

19 - They fight hardest for the relationship at the point only when you've told them it's absolutely over.

20 - When you say you don't want sex, they (1) don't believe you (2) challenge you (3) treat your response like a challenge to surmount (4) hurl abuse or - a classic one (5) go into a moody sulk.

21 - They hate it when you demonstrate to them superior knowledge, insight, wisdom in an argument, rather than take a single breath, back off, and be happy they know someone as amazing, intelligent, caring, insightful and/or as passionate as you.
