17 Things About Men That Most Women Don’t Know

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


Do you feel like you truly understand men?  Much has been written about how men don’t understand women, but the truth is that there is a whole lot about men that women don’t understand as well.  The point is not to spark a debate about “the battle of the sexes” or anything like that.  Rather, it is important for all of us to understand that there is a tremendous amount of confusion about what it means “to be a man” in America today.  So many of our young men seem lost, so many of our older men seem defeated and depressed, and all over this country families are completely falling apart.  We need to understand our problems so that we can start focusing on solutions.  Below, I have shared 17 things about men that most women don’t know.  Some of them are funny, some of them are quite interesting and some of them are extremely serious.  But all of them say something about where we are as a society today…

#1 When women age, they tend to become attracted to older men.  For example, one study found that 20-year-old women are most attracted to 23-year-old men and 50-year-old women are most attracted to 46-year-old men.  But the same is not true when we look at men.  That same study found that 20-year-old men are most attracted to 20-year-old women and 50-year-old men are most attracted to 22-year-old women.

#2 Many men often put on a bold front, but inside they are not nearly as secure.  At least that is what one survey found.  When presented with the statement “I am not always as confident as I look”, 76 percent of men chose the response “I feel like this regularly/sometimes”.

#3 If you could look into their hearts, you would find that most men are not truly happy.  In fact, one survey of 50-year-old men found that only 12 percent of them said that they were “very happy”.

#4 Many men still believe in traditional gender roles.  For example, one survey found that 57 percent of men expect to always pay on a date.  Alternatively, 20 percent believed that whoever initiated the date should pay, and 18 percent believed that date costs should be split.

#5 If women are wondering if it has become harder to find men that are in good shape, that is because it is true.  According to the CDC, 34.6 percent of all men in America are obese at this point.  But that doesn’t mean that men are tolerant of weight gain in women.  Sadly, one survey discovered that 50 percent of men would dump their partner “if they gained a significant amount of weight”.

#6 Most single men realize that women consider financial security to be an extremely important factor in attractiveness.  One recent survey found that “a steady job” is the number one thing that women are looking for in a husband, and another survey discovered that 75 percent of women would have a serious problem dating an unemployed man.  As a result of these attitudes, many men measure their self-worth by the size of their paychecks.

#7 In recent years, the number of men that are struggling to find work has reached new heights.  In fact, the inactivity rate for men in their prime working years (25 to 54) is now at the highest level that has ever been recorded.

#8 86 percent of men include “having children” in their definition of success.  For women, that number is only 73 percent.

#9 Many men also wish that they could spend less time working and more time with their children.  One poll found that 46 percent of fathers say that they don’t spend enough time with their kids.

#10 Men are really dropping behind women when it comes to college education.  In 2013, 60 percent of all bachelor’s degrees were earned by women.

#11 Men are much more likely “not to leave the nest” than women.  In 2012, an astounding 40 percent of all men in the 18 to 31-year-old age group still lived with their parents.

#12 There is a porn epidemic among men.  This is true even among men that are supposed to be religious.  One survey found that 64 percent of all Christian men ages 31 to 49 look at porn at least monthly.

#13 An astounding 30 percent of all Internet traffic currently goes to adult websites.

#14 There are more than 4 million adult websites on the Internet, and they get more traffic than Netflix, Amazon and Twitter combined.

#15 Society has trained young men to avoid getting married, and this has resulted in an absolutely stunning decline in the marriage rate.  Back in 1920, there were 92.3 marriages for every 1,000 unmarried women.  In 2012, there were only 31.1 marriages for every 1,000 unmarried women.

#16 The average age at first marriage just keeps going up for men and for women.  At this point, the average age when a man first gets married has reached an all-time high of 29.0 years.

#17 Women have always lived longer than men and that is still true today.  Women have a life expectancy of 81.0 years and men have a life expectancy of just 76.2 years.

So what do you think about all of this?

      The study is generally full of crap, probably written by a female, and chock full of misandry induced baloney. But women are strong, able, and all that, right? Feminsta crapola.

    • Pharisees.org

      The author writes: “there is a tremendous amount of confusion about what it means “to be a man” in America today. So many of our young men seem lost, so many of our older men seem defeated and depressed, and all over this country families are completely falling apart. We need to understand our problems so that we can start focusing on solutions.”

      :lol: :lol: and then he lists 1 – 17 alleged facts, perhaps women living older than men is a true fact, but as to the bulk of them :lol: :lol:

      1 – 17 are a list of problems? And what are the solutions, author? What is the solution to a woman who wants to marry a man who has steady income, but the man can’t get steady income for reasons beyond his control?

      Psycho babble, the world abounds in it. Men are not all alike, same goes with women. No generalities can be applied to all men relative to their relations with women and vice versa.

      Truth is there are good people and evil people in the world. Evil men and women are oppressors of good men and women and some day the Lord will send his angels who shall remove all evil people and all offensive things from the earth (Matthew 13:41). Matthew 5:5 the meek shall inherit the earth. And as to men who gave up a wife or wives for the sake of Christ’s gospel, they inherit a hundredfold in the next life and eternal life (Rev. 2:7, Rev. 22:14, Genesis 3:22).

      Matthew 19:29 is truth

      Matthew 22:30 is a lie

      So where in the prophets’ writings does it confirm Matthew 22:30? NO where! Isaiah CH. 11 flesh & blood in God’s kingdom on earth when Christ reigns, a child shall lead a lion. Rev. Ch. 22 are angels assembled as nations? Do angels have need of an earth? Are angels kings? The lie of Christianity is that no flesh & blood can inherit God’s kingdom (1 Cor. 15:50). How insane, moron Paul converts, so Christ in his resurrected flesh & blood body could not inherit his own kingdom? Why resurrect into an evil body, as anti-Christ Paul declares all flesh and blood to be evil must never exist again. Satan feels the same way as the Christians’ anti-Christ Paul, which is why he got Eve to eat of the fruit of the tree that would kill her body instead of leading her to the tree of life that would have given Adam and Eve immortality in their flesh and blood bodies. But we see those who love the light, Christ offers again the fruit of the tree that gives immorality to the body (Rev. 2:7, 22:14).

      Until 1862 in USA it was LEGAL for men to have more than one wife. Made a misdemeanor crime in 1862, upped to a felon in 1882, and that ended men’s God-given right to have more than one wife, to have a concubine or concubines and/or wife or wives. Governments fear that type of thing, Christianity which is the gospel of anti-Christ Paul CASTRATES GENTILE MEN, basically. 1 Cor. 7:32 the Jew Pharisees of Satan teach their Gentile convert men that better stay single because if you marry, you care for the world and not the Lord (same with the Gentile women converts, 1 Cor. 7:34).

      Here is a piece of filth from the Christians’ apostle anti-Christ Paul: 1 Cor. 7:1 … it is good for a man to NEVER TOUCH a woman

      And the Christians’ anti-Christ Paul says for a man to have intercourse with a woman who is single but not his wife is fornication, that is a LIE. Idiot Christians, you call JACOB A FORNICATOR, freaking morons. Did not Jacob have four sons through his concubines!

      1 Cor. 6:18 FLEE FORNICATION. Every sin that a man does is without the body, but he that commits fornication sins against his own body

      Anti-Christ Paul’s definition of fornication: 1 Cor. 7:2 To avoid fornication, let every man have his own wife and every woman have her own husband

      Evil anti-Christ Paul declare Abraham and Jacob to be fornicators for both knew women who were not their wives! Same goes for David and Solomon who had many concubines! To Hell with Paul’s doctrine and to Hell go his converts and later the lake of fire (Matthew 7:22-23, 23:15, Acts 23:6, Philippians 3:5).

      Christianity is bankrupt morally bankrupt, founded on the gospel of a freaking lunatic who says I WANT TO DO GOOD BUT A LAW EXIST THAT I CAN’T DO GOOD (Romans 7:23) and in 1 Cor. Chs 12 & 13 the evil one says he does NOTHING BUT GOOD, why he is a prophet, a miracle worker, understands all mysteries

      And while claiming all flesh is captive to a so-called law of sin that prevents anyone from following God’s law, he SAYS he KEPT ALL OF GOD’S LAW, (Philippians 3:4-6 :lol: :lol: BUT VOLUNTARILY GAVE IT UP!). Moron Gentile willing slaves to church altars, church rulers and pay for it too idiots. To the good but who were deceived, now you know Christ says come out of her (Rev. 18:4).

      Strange that Paul converts instead Paul tags along, but they do not see Paul and John CONFLICT, because John says EVILDOERS ARE NOT OF GOD (1 John 4:6) and Paul is a self-proclaimed EVILDOER (Romans 7:19, 7:25). Paul is a self-proclaimed LIAR (Romans 3:7).

      • Pharisees.org

        3 John 1:11 … He that does evil is not of God

        Romans 7:19 I do not know how to do good. I do evil

        I can have John & Christ, no conflicting doctrine there between them

        I cannot have John & Paul, conflicting doctrine between them

        I cannot have Christ & Paul, conflicting doctrine between them

        1 & 2 Peter are obvious Pharisee forgeries.

      I favor traditional conservatism (called tradcon) but visit mgtow.com (men going / getting their own way) for secular discussion on gender issues.

      When it comes to dates I would tell the women whether to be proper or practical? I would pay for the date even if I was unemployed. However, if the girl was making the “money” it would be practical for her to pay (all things being even).

      So, always ask whether to be proper or pratical.

      As far as women out-living men it is well known men take more risk have riskier jobs with the healthiest of them logically dying much younger leaving the weaker to reproduce and the onus is always on men to be the “leader” and this most always brings out stress and shorten lives.

      This is proven with women CEO’s trying to act like men and often going “nutty” from stress and breaking down physically.

      All is not lost.
      There seems to be a type of man called the alpha male; someone in the comments section following the article says that the archetype of this sort of man is the Lord Jesus Christ.
      As always, we come back to the great Creator, Himself.
