So-Called Feminine Things Most Women Aren’t Even Good At - Page 16

Girls are soft, smell nice, are clean and all of that jazz, but it doesn’t come effortlessly to us. In fact, it doesn’t even come regularly. Here are 15 so-called feminine things most women aren’t that good at doing.

Shaving down there

Hey guys, you know that perfect smooth work of art you see at the end of the day? Yeah, that’s after we’ve covered up tons of tiny cuts with tissues and applied anti-inflammatory cream to razor burns. It’s not so pretty…

Keeping matching bras and underwear

If you’ve only seen women in matching lingerie, you’ve only had one-night stands. Date a woman for a week and you’ll see most of her underwear and bras are in a wide variety of mismatched colors and we’re just happy they’re clean.

Crying at the right time

Men, we have moments like you where we are supposed to cry at a video or a moment, but we just aren’t touched. And it’s awkward.

Singing to a baby

You’d like to think any woman could open up her mouth and sing a lullaby to a baby and she would sound like an angel. But in fact, some of us straight-up sound like parrots.

Plucking eyebrows

Sometimes we accidentally just remove half of an eyebrow or whine our way through it.

Having nice nails

If you think all women have nice nails, you’re catching them on a good day. We bite our nails, get dirt stuck in them, and pick away nail polish on a daily basis.

Bedtime routine

Your girlfriend may put on a nice mud mask, floss, and remove her makeup when you sleep over. But when she is alone, she passes out, face down, makeup on, drooling on a pillow, a little buzzed from wine.

Makeup

Plenty of women struggle with the face-to-neck transition with makeup. Take a close look: Plenty of women walk around with a neck a completely different color from their face.

Staying on top of our periods

We almost never have a tampon when we need one. And we’ve lost so many good panties to spotting.

Wearing bras

Sometimes putting on a bra sounds like too much work. Every once in a while it makes more sense to put on three tank tops instead. And yeah, we are still nipping out.

Keeping flowers alive

Thank you for the flowers. I’ll put them in a vase now (aka, a tall beer glass) and they’ll be dead in three days.

Cooing at babies

We don’t all know exactly how to speak all cute to babies when you put them in our arms. Sometimes we are awkward and start talking to them like a professional colleague, “Hello baby. How are you?”

Shaving armpits

If your girlfriend has been wearing sweaters for two weeks in the summer…yeah. Don’t go in there.

Keeping our bed nice

Those Pinterest beds full of perfect accent pillows and handmade quilts—those only exist on the social media site. Plenty of us have orange peels and wine corks in our beds, and four mismatched pillowcases.
