7 Things Guys Do That Us Girls Just Don't Understand
Janet Elizabeth Herman

In This Article:

This list was compiled through the opinions of friends and various other girls. What we want to know is, why do guys do these things?

Watch football for 14 straight hours

If your boyfriend is like mine, he'll spend all weekend watching football and playing in fantasy leagues...am I the only one who doesn't get the point of this?

Shower two or three times per day

I understand wanting to be clean, but why do guys shower two or three times a day? Like how can they possibly get THAT sweaty?

Wear the same four shirts when they have a full closet

I KNOW you have more clothes than that high school football t-shirt and khaki shorts. We all have our favorite clothes, but why do they just rotate the same four outfits?

Yell-talk whenever they're telling a story

They start off talking in a normal volume, and the longer the story goes on, the louder they get. Why? I'm standing literally right next to you.

Holding on to things for way too long

Why do boys keep socks until there are holes in the bottom? Or shoes until they wear holes in the sides? I'm just confused as to at what point they finally throw things away.

Post pictures of themselves fishing

EVERY guy has at least one Instagram post of him fishing. Why? Is fishing some secret guy language that us girls just don't understand? I don't get this trend at all.

Their outfit combinations....

Why are you wearing sweatpants with Timbs and a cutoff? Or basketball shorts and a polo? Do you know how to put outfits together, or do you get dressed in the dark?

What do your boyfriends do that makes you scratch your head? Comment below!

In an age where artificial intelligence can mimic the voice of Freddie Mercury or reimagine pop hits as synthwave ballads, a new frontier has emerged — one that blurs the line between innovation and erosion. While AI offers undeniable benefits in technical domains, its intrusion into creative arts, especially music, raises urgent questions. Not just about copyright, but about culture, education, and the very soul of artistic expression.

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.

Why Your Astrological Sign May Not Match Your Personality

We are all more than just one sign.

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.

The Importance Of Being A Good Person

An open letter to the good-hearted people.

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.
