20 Phrases Women Are Tired Of Hearing
Huffington Post

It's true that there are words, phrases, and sentences both of the opposite sexes are tired of hearing. There are also plenty that men and women love to hear. However, some women are more sensitive than others. Some get over things easily, but some hold the world's biggest grudges. Some are more concerned with their studies; some with their nails. And then there's some who are both.

If one thing is for sure though, women know everything. They find out everything through their close knit groups of friends and expert social media stalking. Since they know everything, you definitely don't want to make them angry. There are a few things that women, especially college-aged women, absolutely can't stand to hear.


1. "Are you REALLY going to eat that?"

Yes. Trust me, I am and I'll enjoy it.


2. "You need to calm down."

It's funny when you try to tell me what to do. Hilarious.


3. "It really doesn't matter what you wear."

I spend a lot of time on how I look for me, because I want to. It's not for anyone else. And my outfit choice is probably the most important.


4. "Are you sure you can do that?"

Why else would I be doing it?


5. "Real women have _____."

Curves, jobs, kids, a boyfriend? Seriously, your lists of perfection are endless.


6. "You'd be a perfect 10 if you had _____."

Probably the thing I'm most insecure about. Thank you so much for pointing it out!!


7. "You're so beautiful. I don't understand why you're single."

YOU'RE ACTUALLY SAYING THIS RIGHT NOW? ACTUALLY?


8. "You work too much."

Maybe I like my job? Or I like money? I dunno.


9. "Relax."

Ha. Ha.


10. "You shouldn't..."

I really, really should.


11. "You can't..."

And I can.


12. "I understand what you're going through." *really doesn't*

I don't think you do if you're using that coddling, condescending tone.


13. "Women should be hairless everywhere except their head."

Like any women have time for that, let alone me.


14. "Are you a feminist?"

Excuse me. So what if I am?


15. "You would be really pretty if you didn't wear so much makeup."

And you would be too if you didn't judge everyone.


16. *doesn't wear makeup* "Wow, you look tired today. Are you okay?"

You're joking... right?


17. "You shouldn't wait to get married/have kids. Your biological clock is ticking."

Thank you, family member. I forgot this was the 1950's.


18. "You should wait to get married/have kids until you have a stable job."

Your advice means so much to me. I hope you catch my sarcasm.


19. "So you're voting for Hillary because she's a woman, right?

I don't vote for people based on their sex. Especially in this election.


20. "Moist."

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
