WHY

do men hate asking for directions?

:hmmm:

I’ve no issue asking for directions but for a man its like a matter of ego if he has to ask someone.

Re: WHY

For some like my bro who would drive around the block 10 times before he finally gives in.:hinna:
In contrast is my dad, he is the first one to ask for directions. We would be saying ‘no no, let us take a round’ but NO…he’ll be out asking someone the correct address on the first go lol.

Re: WHY

I saw one guy whip out his laptop at the airport to find the proper terminal...all he had to do was ask an employee...goodness!

Re: WHY

men do...but with this GPS Navigation thing, it isn't a problem anymore. lemme remind u ladies that women use GPS more often than men i suppose :D

Re: WHY

You're right about the GPS part. In fact, I bought my phone based on its ability to navigate. I use it A LOT.

But why dont men just ask if they do not know...why go in circles when all you have to do is say "excuse me, where is 14th street?"

Re: WHY

It’s like in Genetics :cheegum:

Re: WHY

it's funny my hubby's just the opposite he's always the first between us that will stop the car to ask for directions

Re: WHY


**
i do ask...others may not because of their false sense of ego. my time must be more valuable so i don't mind or hesitate asking at all. one can not obviously know about everything. :D**

Re: WHY

We know where we are going. You just don't believe us. Its obviously an issue of trust and you don't trust us. That is why women also backseat drive and tell people what to do. Its about the female ego where she thinks she knows better when she in fact does not.

But then again Diwana will come to tell you all what's what.

Re: WHY

Society has dictated that all men can read maps and never need to ask for directions, they feel weak if they have to ask for something that is supposed to be ingrained within them.

Re: WHY

That is wrong, and being a women you can't answer for men.

Re: WHY

but dude...

Re: WHY

I never ask for directions! Hurts my ego :smokin:

Re: WHY

A guy who asks for directions loses all respect in my eyes. Eww. What a girl.

Re: WHY

See no pleasing women. We are either stubborn or they have no respect for us!

Re: WHY

I agree with you, but I think these people are talking about directions while driving. Driving a vehicle that is.

Re: WHY

Sir, my answer was all-encompassing.

Re: WHY

From your reaction to a man asking for directions, I gathered you must be disturbed by the thought of having a man ask for directions while in the bedroom, cause thats definitely wussy and eww. Unless of course there's latex, handcuffs, chocolate syrup and a blindfold involved.

On the other hand a bloke asking for directions while driving, well I thought that might not be that girly and eww.

Re: WHY

Ok, here's the serious answer devoid of sarcasm or jest: A man who can say 'I don't know it all' or 'I can't do this with perfection'? Adorable. Not eww in any way. Neither in the car nor in the bedroom. Society's standards don't matter.

Re: WHY

I ask the GPS for directions. Sometimes even if I don't particularly need them.
