I've started paying attention to male/female dynamics in other people's lives as I have recently given up (lost) all male/female dynamics in my own life.

What I find most interesting is that when I (a male) walk past a single guy, or group of guys, most likely there is no eye contact or acknowledgement of my existence in any way.

If, on the other hand, that single guy or group of guys is accompanied by one or more girl, that guy will stare me down like he wants to know if I can smell what the Rock is cookin'.

Even more interesting is that I find myself doing the same thing, in those rare instances when I am accompanied by a female. No one does it on purpose, in fact I believe most guys don't even know they're doing it - it's like an instinct. It's also hilarious.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

I found that I had to start doing this, when I went on vacation to curacao, to keep guys from whistling/catcalling at my girlfriend. At first I just ignored random dudes as I always would, but it quickly became apparent that people would be disrespectful to us if I didn't give them the ol' stink-eye.

[–]rawrc 0 points1 point ago

Yeah, when I was in Italy I encountered the same thing. There are definitely cultural differences regarding this behavior.

[–]Randomesc 5 points6 points ago

I've started analyzing people as pack animals. Everything makes so much more sense now. Sure we have the mental capacity to override our basic programming, but the rest of the signs are there.

[–]jollyxgreenexgiant 48 points49 points ago

... that guy will stare me down like he wants to know if I can smell what the Rock is cookin'.

Won my upvote.

Oh thank god. Hey rawrc! You won this guy's upvote!

[–]rawrc 0 points1 point ago

And BOOM goes the dynamite!

[–]Industrialbonecraft 9 points10 points ago

Stare the motherfucker down as you pass.

[–]Lynch117 15 points16 points ago

You could also add a little bit of creep to it. Stare the mofo down, then about five seconds in, if you have that much time, lick your lips. I mean, really lick them.

[–]Lynch117 -2 points-1 points ago

On the head. You nailed it.

[–]CosmicPube 1 point2 points ago

Primal instinct. Even if the girl ain't your SO, guys instinctively size up passing men determining when and how they will have to take him out if he threatens their safety.

[–]rawrc 1 point2 points ago

Exactly, even if you just met the girl, your threat detection goes into overdrive. Suddenly, every guy you meet is a potential competitor, and when they glance away from your ice-cold stare, you've dominated them. THAT'S RIGHT, SON, LOOK AWAY! SHE MINE!

[–]Hype2Def 2 points3 points ago

I always find it funny to see a younger couple walking together and I look and see them just walking side by side but as soon as they get close they guy always grabs his girls hand or puts his arm around and I laugh every time. Like chill out bro, she's ugly.

[–]12toedfeet 1 point2 points ago

She's not ugly...she's just Plant...er...Egg...er...Ann Hog...I mean, she's just plain ol' Ann.

[–]rawrc 1 point2 points ago

Another good one, although unrelated to the current topic, is young couples awkwardly holding hands while they walk even though it's painfully obvious neither of them is comfortable doing it. The guy initiates because it shows he owns her, and the girl goes along with it because she doesn't want to upset him. Then they both walk down the sidewalk frowning, the guy glaring angrily at everyone with testes.

[–]Hype2Def 0 points1 point ago

Yea that always makes me laugh. Or see people sitting somewhere holding hands. You're sitting for Christ sakes. It's awkward. I hate seeing people walk where the guy's arm is around the girl's waist and they're like attached. It's the most uncomfortable way to walk.

[–]rawrc 1 point2 points ago

I remember way back when I was in highschool sitting with a girl in a movie theater and contorting my arm into the most uncomfortable position on the arm rest so I could hold hands with her. So worth it.

[–]sapo916 0 points1 point ago

Why is that funny?

[–]rawrc 0 points1 point ago

Because it's such an alpha-chimp instinct, and every (straight) guy does it, no matter their belief system or personal convictions. Guys who dedicate their lives to equality of the sexes still do this. Bible-thumpers who shout "my grandfather ain't no monkey!" do this, acting just like monkeys.

It's funny because human beings are constantly trying to prove how superior to animals we are, how much we act on reason instead of instinct, and yet we're constantly doing things we have no conscious control over. At least, I find it funny. If you don't, I'm sorry you were forced to read my post.

Great...now I'm fully swimming in a sea of confusion. Somebody hold me.

I love how the guy on the left is like: "I know dat feel, bro". We all do.

[–]AndyRooney 19 points20 points ago

The guy on the left is Henrik Lundqvist, NY Rangers goalie and recently named the world's sexiest man by the NY Post. I'm sure he knows a lot of feels, bro, beyond his sweaty palm.

How much Karma has this gif harvested, HOW MUCH KARMA!??

By KarmaDecay's estimate, not counting posts with 0 or less karma, 4129 karma, just as submissions. That's not even counting as comments.

I read "every time another guy smells my wife". I'm an idiot.

[–]scruffy01 38 points39 points ago

On today's episode of "Comments by Redditors"

We find young men assert the masculinity by telling you how totally cool they are with other guys hitting on their SO.

Stay tuned towards the end for a clip of "I'm all about having sex with a woman on her period, /brofist"

[–]EditingAndLayout 25 points26 points ago

You know, it is possible to smile at someone without hitting on them.

[–][deleted] 5 points6 points ago

These comments have convinced me to never smile at another woman again. The old lady next door must be getting bothered by all my overt sexual advances.

[–]SweetSweetAtaraxia 2 points3 points ago

Ha ha, yeah, and that would make it completely improper to proposition everyone who smiles at you!

So improper..

[–]Aihwa 1 point2 points ago

Please excuse my ignorance on the subject (social anxiety, I don't leave my house) but I've never understood the whole "not touching that" when a woman is on her period. Is it squeamishness?

[–]fora-mejora 6 points7 points ago

Their haircuts are so strange...

[–]ElArcho 2 points3 points ago

You're the muppet?

[–]andrewsmith1986 13 points14 points ago

Better for them to want to bang your wife than to not want to bang her.

[–]Breathing_Balls 10 points11 points ago

I want to bang your wife. You cool?

Edit: Sorry bro. Now I feel bad.

[–]GeneralWarts 6 points7 points ago

He just got out of a long term relationship 3 months ago. Take it easy BB.

[–]MizzElissa 3 points4 points ago

lolol Encino Man. Such a great movie.

[–]textual_predditor 12 points13 points ago

You care if a dude smiles at your wife?

Any time a dude smiles or flirts with my significant other I'm like, "Yup. That's what I'm pulling. Soak it in, sucker. "

I feel like dudes that get all bent out of shape when other guys check out their SO are just under-confident boys who don't trust the strength of their game.

[–]Xswitch24 11 points12 points ago

Yes, because "game" is what's needed in a long term relationship riiiight? I can tell that you must think of yourself as someone who has lots of "game" to get the ladies.

[–]textual_predditor -1 points0 points ago

Game is what's needed to get the female and keep her in the short run. In the long run confidence and consistency of game is what keeps her around. Being a super sensitive nancy about other guys admiring your SO shows neither of these, and is indicative of a very unstable relationship.

[–]ninjoe87 0 points1 point ago

You're wrong.

[–]textual_predditor 0 points1 point ago

In my experience with dudes who are uptight about other guys checking out their wife/gf, my statement is dead-on.

[–]ninjoe87 0 points1 point ago

Your only experience is your own. Your assumptions are unfounded.

[–]firebadmattgood 5 points6 points ago

No, it was Rudy.

[–]Rachel707 1 point2 points ago

So yes, it was Samwise just earlier in life. When he played for Notre Dame.

[–]Deverone 2 points3 points ago

This was before he played for Notre Dame, back when he went to high school with Pauly Shore.

[–]danman9984 0 points1 point ago

said it before i could :( way to go fishy

[–]HotwaxNinjaPanther 1 point2 points ago

This reminds me of a thing that I saw in my facebook feed a while back:

Girl: "There's nothing more attractive than a man who stands up to protect his woman."

Friend: "There's nothing more attractive than a woman who doesn't need protecting."

This was after the second time that the girl cheated on her husband and he finally got fed up and started fighting guys over it. She deleted the post instantly.

[–]iloveavocados 1 point2 points ago

I'm a female SAP in front of guys...I always get paranoid that I'm displaying any sort of flirtatious behavior, so I overcompensate by acting like a dude. So no one will ever check me out...or so I hope. There is this really hot guy who works in my office, like the kind that literally makes me think "fuck fuck fuck what am I gonna do?! You better not act stupid!! Is there a stain on my shirt?" whenever we are in the same room. One time we were alone in the break room and I could literally hear myself gulp down nervousness as we reached for the fridge at the same time. I always felt bad afterward cuz he probably thinks I'm a rude ass bitch. I suck :(

[–]BLANK23 -2 points-1 points ago

No it just get's annoying. If i took my ex anywhere guys would hit on her constantly. Normally if i just did something to let them know she's taken it'd be ok bit it really get's old standing somewhere and guys walking up to hit on your girl.

[–]StrikingCrayon 0 points1 point ago

The easier reaction is to smile back and wink.

[–]goffers92 0 points1 point ago

[–]I_give_karma_to_men 0 points1 point ago

Honestly if you had that reaction to me, I'd probably just smile right back at you.

[–]textual_predditor 0 points1 point ago

That argument is not valid. EVERYONE'S experiences are their own. By your logic, we can never make an observation about anything. If you are trying to suggest that my sample size is too small to make the observation that I made, I would suggest that if a person has observed a behavior in many people of a particular sort, and that 100 percent of the people observed exhibiting that behavior have a certain personality type, then it is not out of the question to make a general assumption about those people. Granted, there is no rule about personalities that is true, universally.

I had to do this with my fiance when a drunk guy at a local bar we visit bought her a drink. She at first refused, saying she's with someone, but he said, "Nah, take it. I want to see his reaction."

Happened to me. Except when she refused I said, "Wait, I'll take it" chugged his drink, and said "tastes like I'm getting laid tonight."

Man, take that as a compliment. Envy is flattery, and if males are smiling at your wife, it shows you have what they don't.
