Well a lot of people are jumping on the OP saying she is generalizing or stereotyping. I gotta throw something in here.

Anyway, I like women. And I was raised by very affectionate, intelligent, highly educated women. So that probably has a lot to do with my own personal views.
However, I have noticed a few things about most women.
1) Practically every woman I have ever had a relationship has said pretty much the following, "Women are bitches. Most of my friends are guys." When I asked what they meant they usually say they compete too much against each other, even among friends, and they're catty.
2) Most women appear to have zero self esteem unless they are in a relationship. This personally drives me up the wall. Most women are in a new relationship in less than a month after any breakup. Hell, the shortest amount of time I've had between relationships was around a year. After a break up, I don't want to deal with a relationship so soon. I'll just hang out with the guys and fart around for a while. Women seem to immediately try and find their next boyfriend. An old joke about women: "Women are like monkeys. They don't let go of one branch until they have ahold of the next one." Funny. But it's kinda true.
Other than that I find women very enjoyable. But I would say, IMO, that guys tend to be more laid back than women on average.
Quote:What people call “stereotypes” are what scientists call “empirical generalizations,” and they are the foundation of scientific theory. That’s what scientists do; they make generalizations. Many stereotypes are empirical generalizations with a statistical basis and thus on average tend to be true. If they are not true, they wouldn’t be stereotypes. The only problem with stereotypes and empirical generalizations is that they are not always true for all individual cases. They are generalizations, not invariant laws. There are always individual exceptions to stereotypes and empirical generalizations. The danger lies in applying the empirical generalizations to individual cases, which may or may not be exceptions. But these individual exceptions do not invalidate the generalizations.
