what TLK said. thats the crux of the whining issue. women want to be listened to, without solutions for their problems. the unhappiest woman on this planet is one whose problems have all been solved by her better-half.
to build upon it, for geeky science and engineering majors (yes i wanna bring as many biases to this table as i can), it is hard not to solve the whiny womans issues and throw it back at her face while shes whining, thereby killing any “love” she might have. but the useless arts major male will launch into an uber-ambiguous hyperbole that makes the stupid woman seem like she is special and the center of the universe.
and that is how whiny girls fall in love with hairy men who skip classes.
