Girls have always said that life would be so much easier as a man. Apparently this guy Dave agrees. Over the past few years, he has been compiling a list of reasons for why it’s better to be a man, and now it’s finally been published. While he admits he did not write the full list since it’s been changed so much over the years, I must say several of the points are valid.

This compilation is called “Reasons it’s Good to be a Man.” 

After reading through the whole list, I guess you can say I went “girl” and had a wave of different emotions: I laughed, got angry, agreed, disagreed, stopped caring and then couldn’t stop thinking about it. But what are these reasons? And are they true? Some. But others, it’s not fair just to give men these good qualities. Let’s go through a few, and for the full list of why it’s good to be a man, click here.

REASON 1: “Their bathroom lines are 80% shorter.”

I totally and completely agree with this one. In fact, I’ve gotten in trouble a few times in a few different places for going into the men’s bathroom because I just couldn’t hold it anymore. And this is a serious question: girls, what the hell do you do in the bathroom that it takes you seven full minutes to pee when there’s a line the size of Texas waiting to go in after you? Speed it up, bitch. Man wins this one.

REASON 2: “You Can Leave a Hotel Bed Unmade.”

Excuse me, unless I’m secretly a guy and just figuring it out now, what girl makes a hotel bed? Hotels employ people to make beds. You don’t need to agree to the maid service, but if you do opt out, do you really make your own bed? I’ve never done that, and I’m very clean and anti-mess. It’s 8:36 a.m. and my bed’s already made. Man, sorry, you lose this one, girls typically don’t make hotel beds either.

REASON 3: “You Get Extra Credit for the Slightest Act of Thoughtfulness.”

This is one of the ones I laughed at because it’s so true. If a girl is talking to a guy and all of a sudden he mentions he wants to go out for dinner instead of lounging in his apartment for the fifth night in a row, the girl gets all giddy and tells all of her friends who ooh and ahh about what a good guy he is and how lucky she is for finding him. Ha, Man wins.

REASON 4: “Wedding Plans Take Care of Themselves.”

Uh, wrong. Weddings do not plan themselves. Sure, you can hire somebody to help you, but they’ll ask your opinion about everything – have you not seen The Wedding Planner with J.Lo?? Even if you don’t hire somebody, yes, okay, women tend to become more obsessed with wedding plans than men, but if you (as a man) decide to have no say in your wedding plans, you damn well better understand you have no complaining, bragging or name calling rights to your fiancee or about the wedding. Man does not win here.

REASON 5: “Michael Bolton Doesn’t Live in Their Universe.”

Well he doesn’t live in mine either. In all honesty, I have no idea what he even sings. And I know I am not the only girl who can say that and mean it. This is another gender-neutral comment that should not necessarily make you happy you’re a man. Once again, Man does not win here.
