You tell me your ex is an Olympic swimmer. Also, your other ex has seven tattoos, and your college boyfriend owns a social-media start-up and drives a Porsche. Because (ha-ha!) you're with me now.

This article was terrible.  Knowing a college game score is annoying?  Being vocal about what you want in the bedroom is annoying?  This has to be one of the most rediculous lists ever.  Did men even have involvement in writing this aricle?  Sure doesn't read that way.  And any woman reading this thinking it holds an ounce of truth best be prepared to chase a white rabbit because you are somewhere in Wonderland.

Um, wow, what a dumb list. Guys hate it when you talk about your ex. My ex abused me and guys hate it when I mention that. If they can't take hearing how a woman's ex called her stupid all the time and physically hurt her whenever he was angry with her, why would he want to hear good things about her ex?

Clearly, no men were involved writing or consulted on this list.  This reads like it was written by a clueless 20 year-old coed with no life or relationship experience.

Why would any man secretly love being told what about him is annoying?  That's called nagging.  Gets old quick.

Spending hours in the bathroom?  It's called being self-centered, a poor time manager, and high maintenance.  Why does it take so long to look good?  May as well hire a Hollywood special effects makeup artist.

Sending food back?  No one likes picky eaters.  Plus, anyone who has worked in a kitchen knows that is an invitation for getting spit in your food.

Talking about your ex?  No one wants to hear that.  This part is poorly written as presumably it is supposed to be cute.  Did a high school student write this?

This article is insulting to the intelligence of women and men.  The writer illustrates how little she knows about men.  Why doesn't Glamour hire (straight) men to write these types of articles.  It would read like this:

1)  You don't nag
2)  You aren't late
3)  You don't talk too much (especially about your dreams or other boring topics)
4)  You don't have weird issues with your family (tell it to your therapist)
5)  You aren't a wallet buster, i.e. love to "travel" which is a euphemism for going on expensive vacations.  You have your personal finances in order.
6)  You exercise
7)  Reasonably follow current events and read real newspapers (in addition to Glamour of course).

#20: If a man does something that bothers you, you should politely point it out.
Not scream it at their  face, as the picture implies. No PERSON, let alone any man, will "secretly" or otherwise love that. Being shy is a good thing.
#18: There isn't a heterosexual man on the planet that cares about either of the two things mentioned here. This entry makes me think this article was fresh off the brain of some self-obsessed fool of a woman that thinks WAAY too highly of herself.
#15: How about we don't?
#14: Men really don't care about how long you agonized over buying shoes.
But I do care if you are torturing yourself in high-heels and I'M the one that pays for it.
#13: What. . The. . ****. Who the hell are you and what form of human man do you think you are dating? No man says that ****. We dress to be comfortable.
#12: You always look stunning. Just hurry the hell up so we are on time.
It isn't cute. We don't "secretly" like it.
#11: LOL? We're talking about things that MEN love right? Not your fag boyfriend.
#8: ****. Men, just like women, expect you to show the **** up. Secretly and Love are the exact two opposite words of what will occur if you stand me up all the time. I will OPENLY HATE that ****.
#7: How about I tell you about my ex? She gave the BEST head ever. Her ****? AMAZING. Would cook me breakfast EVERY day! But don't worry baby. I'm with YOU now. HA HA.
#4: Terrible advice. Playing hard-to-get is a great way to scare off any actual life-long partners. Great advice for being a stuck-up female dog though.
Screams "control freak".
#3: Red Flag. Men are not looking for some prim-prickly little shallow princess.
#2: How about you answer both my calls and texts?
#1: This only works to a point. If you're bagging on me all the time in-front of my friends, things are going to get old fast

Why would anyone ask someone to dispose of a spider without hurting it? If it's in my house, I want it dead! Outside I leave the bugs alone but if there is anything creepy crawly in my house it needs to be destroyed.

Could be one of the worst articles ever written for women.  I hate 80% of these things mentioned.  If you talk to me about "Real Housewives", you're out before you can even finish your sentence

How the hell did this make it all the way to my main MSN news page? Its contrived crap written  by a woman who watches two many rom-coms. If you are female, don't take this article to heart. And if you wrote it, you should be ashamed that your career has gotten to this point.

What dumb*ss wrote this.  Most of it is downright wrong: while I do want to know if my s.o. hates (as in truly despises) a particular thing I do or say, every little annoying thing (NO); the bugs thing...okay I mostly get that; mention a reality show (other than to say it sucks (or something along those lines), I'm going to think you're an idiot; celebrity crush, whatever; stopping me before I go too far, yes please; neckties, I feel like I'm being choked whenever I wear one; spending hours in the bathroom, I'm going to think you've got stomach troubles (i.e. do I need to drive you to the hospital?); vibrator, that one I'm actually okay with (extra fun...); specific instructions in bed, okay with that too; college football, the college I went to has never had a football team, besides considering how overpaid college coaches are if there was no such thing as college sports college wouldn't cost so much...; regularly standing me up, that clearly means I'm not an important part of your life; mentioning ex's, the issue there is quantity not that they come up; quoting Liz Lemon, not a problem so long as you don't have a problem with me quoting Red Foreman "dumb*ss"

Finally, of course you didn't respond to my texts: I never sent any!

1) WRONG. This results in not even a 2nd minute of our knowing one another.
2) Texting is stupid, juvenile, and will be outmoded in another 4 years. N/A
3) WRONG. No 2nd date for You!!!
4) A good night kiss, at the door?  What is this, The Wonder Years?
5) Tina Fey, is a hatefilled, Leftist subversive, intent on the destruction of Our Way of Life; next to Bill Maher, she is The greatest internal enemy, of our nation.  You quote her more than once, I'm on the phone to Homeland Security.
6) Dogs are what H.P. Lovecraft called them: a pet for the peasant-burgher. N/A
7) WRONG. I wanted to pretend you began existing, the moment I met you; now, I'm pretty certain you're a prostitute.
8) WRONG. No time for me? No time for You.
9) WRONG. Women like You, are the reason why the Super Bowl has been reduced to a pile of manure.
10) This one's so wrong, I'm reasonably certain it was written by Andrea Dworkin.
11) See #10.
12) No Further Marriage For You!!!
13) Only Correct, if you think stupid is attractive.
14) Poorly constructed sentence.  Don't know if my answer is "you're a sadist, get The Hell out of my Life!", or "you don't need more shoes, Imelda".  I think I'll pick A, as that's how it appears to read.  Again.  Poorly constructed.
15) I yanked cable in 2008.  Why don't we rewatch Newsradio?
16) Look.  You "want it", or you don't.  This isn't a game of "Mother, may I?"  It's a Life, together.  Choose a sexual speed, and STAY THERE.
17) Again, stupid is not attractive.  The "crush" pop culture delineations, are Stupid.
18) See #15.
19) Bugs die, in this house.  If I'm not handy, grow a pair.
20) WRONG. This one, is the Fast Track to Divorce Court.  Smartmouth, is NOT to be tolerated. It is THE GREATEST of dealbreakers.

#Sigh#, oh, Thank God, this actually Is written by enemies of America and Haters of men and God.  I did battle, defended the faith.  I can sleep, now....
