On the rare occasions that men do cook, they make such a massive deal about it, like they deserve a medal or something And they make a real mess in the kitchen, too. Another thing that really annoys me is that men are completely blind! You'll be having your dinner and he gets up to get something and you're, like, "Can you bring the salt, babe," and you know it's right there on the side in front of the kettle but he just can't see it so you have to get up anyway. They can't see things that are right in front of their faces. Men are also crap because they don't realise that women are just totally romantic and all they'd have to do to get exactly what they wanted would be to treat us like princesses the whole time. But then, what would we have to talk about? CARRIE GRANT Voice coach, Fame Academy The major difference between men and women is this: women have far better role models. If you look at magazines, there are a lot of women out there who can help other women.
Women are well defined, and that's because we've had to fight tooth and nail for everything we've got. If you look at men, what have they got? Nuts, Loaded and FHM Those magazines don't contain good role models for men. It's indicative of the fact that men have lost their way in how to define themselves. PETRONELLA WYATT Deputy editor, The Spectator Men don't know how to make intelligent but light conversation, which makes them total bores to talk to most of the time. They're crap at smoking, they always look like idiots when they smoke a cigarette. And they're crap dancers - as soon as they get on to the dancefloor, they look like apes.
They're really crap with anything technical, especially mobile phones - no man knows how to use his mobile properly I am forever having to help them out with their texting. And DVD players, too - men are crap at working DVD players, changing light bulbs and a lot of other menial household chores.
