Advantages Of "Just Being A Guy"

There are just so many advantages of being a guy, I'd like to explore it even just for a day. If given the option to have a super power for a day or be a guy for a day...ok I'd pick super power but still I'd like to try out the advantages at some point in my life.

1. You don't get your Period!

Let me reiterate this again. YOU DON'T SPEND A WEEK EACH MONTH IN MISERY. Must be awesome to have that much free time with unaltered hormones that don't make you want to punch everyone or curl in a ball all day, or both.

2. Sex is not like solving a rubix cube

There is no mind binding equation to it. 1, 2, 3, BOOM. DONE. On with your day. While girls will just stay right here while half the male population tries to "figure it out."

3. You can hookup with EVERYONE!

Although recently there has been a push to release the double standards of hooking up, example Amber Rose and her Walk of No Shame Video there is still a lot of bias against girls that hookup with a lot of people.

Guys on the other hand can date/hookup with 1, 2, 4, or even 100 people and no one says a thing. No judgement, no shame.

4. You can get wasted and stumble around bars freely

A guy stumbling around a bar... ok cool nothing to see here.

A girl stumbling around a bar...

- Avoid getting roofied.

- Don't break your ankle from your heels.

- Avoid all glares you're receiving from everyone you pass by.

- Don't get puke in your hair.

- Whole friend group now has to leave the bar because of you.

* Feels guilty whole next day

5. You are not expected to be clean...ever

A guy is allowed to be messy and its just chalked up to "being a guy." If you're a presentable male with a clean apartment you have practically won life according to any girl you meet and gain about 10000+ brownie points. If a girl doesn't care about her looks or has a dirty apartment, she is no longer "wifey material."

Hey I want to not think about my outfit and throw my underwear all over my bedroom too!

6. Don't have to "Act like a Lady"

News flash, girls are gross too! We just have to hide it better. We can't just go around freely "adjusting ourselves" as we please.

7. DAD BOD.... that is all

I would LOVE to eat, drink, and sit on the couch as much as I wanted and still be found attractive by the opposite sex.

8. Able to see "results" with minimal effort from the gym

This does not apply to all men, but in general more testosterone and higher metabolism naturally allows guys to see results from the gym pretty quickly.

"Oh you were eating like crap the past....5 months...let's just hit the gym for about 3 weeks and immediately see improvement" - thought no woman ever

9. You can be obsessed with sports

Women can't win on this subject. If we know about #sports then we can't possibly know enough as our male counterparts. We are also assumed to not enjoy #sports at all...

I would like to be able to dedicate an entire Sunday eating junk food, watching sports, drinking beer, not caring what I look like and not showering. While also screaming obscenities at a tv for hours on end and checking my fantasy lineup on repeat.

10. You can use terrible one liners *cough cough TINDER*

I think it would be fun to swipe right 1000 times a day and write ridiculous things to girls and see their reactions.

"On a scale of 1 to America how free are you tonight?" - said every frat star in America

11. The most obvious advantage.....YOU CAN'T GET PREGNANT

Let me just say that again, YOU CAN'T GET PREGNANT! You don't have to worry about carrying an alien the size of a football for about 9 months and then go through the horrific process of actually BIRTHING a child.

Just remember that the next time you scream bloody murder when someone "kicks you in the nuts," and that discomfort doesn't last you 9 MONTHS!
