Yeah, I always get mad when a guy tells me the Earth is round. I mean, the nerve! Or when they tell me dogs can bark... UGH drives me up a wall. Or that verbs are a part of speech... what jerks!

LOL, I'd never tell a woman this.

I don't know why, but when a man looks tired, it's because he's tired. When a woman looks tired, it's because she's old and unattractive.

LOL... yeah, that's usually the implied meaning.

Despite my joke about painfully obvious things, I really am wondering what is meant by "obvious" because a lot of people seem to think their opinion is "obvious" when it really isn't.

Come on dude, you need to stop responding with "yes" when she asks you whether the dress makes her look fat.

Notice his use of the word 'girls' instead of 'women.' That should give you an idea of his perspective, age and experience.
