10 Things Women Hate to Nag Their Man About

There appears to be an assumption in the minds of men that women enjoy nagging them about things. Most women on the other hand would tell you that they hate nagging their men about seemingly small things. Assuming the latter is correct, let’s look at ten of the things that women truly hate to nag their man about.
  1. Leaving the toilet seat up. This is definitely number one on the list. They put it up. They should put it back down afterwards. This is especially important at night when an unsuspecting woman may enter the bathroom in the dark.
  2. Using foul language. Too often men are used to using foul language when in the company of other men and this becomes a habit that carries over to the rest of their lives. If there are children within earshot, women instinctively know that those ‘new’ words will be quickly assimilated into an otherwise innocent vocabulary and feel obliged to remind their men of this fact.
  3. Calling/visiting their mother. This is another biggy. The woman knows that if the man in her life neglects contact with the woman who gave him birth, she is the one who will hear about it from his mother. She may then feel the need to remind him to be a dutiful son in order to avoid becoming the go-between for him and his mom.
  4. Leaving dirty dishes around the house. Unless the man is also the head of the kitchen, this is another common complaint. Where did all the glasses, coffee cups, spoons, etc. go? Worse yet is having to soak cereal bowls that have had leftover flakes dehydrating on their surface for several days or weeks.
  5. Leaving clothes lying around the house. Another common nagging issue involves clothing. The number one culprit seems to be his socks. He takes them off by the couch and leaves them lying there, oblivious to the fact that they do not fit with the rest of the décor.
  6. Tracking dirt into the house. This complaint comes in two forms, depending upon the house rules, and is usually a result of a quick trip into the house during projects in the garage or out of doors. One form would be ‘Why didn’t you wipe your feet?’ and the other would be ‘Why didn’t you take your shoes off?’ The issue remains the same, dirt on the floors that didn’t need to be there.
  7. Repairs around the house. For homeowners this is a big pet-peeve. Often times the woman would be quite willing to hire someone to fix the dripping faucet or re-stain the deck, but the man insists that he is capable and willing to take on the tasks himself (at a convenient time, of course). Again, the woman is forced to resort to nagging to get the tasks accomplished.
  8. Helping with the children. Getting more than one child ready for school or ready for bed can be a handful for any parent. Some parents have no choice but to take on the full task by themselves, but if there are two parents in the home, it only seems reasonable that the two should share in this responsibility. Why should the woman have to remind the man about this obvious fact?
  9. Yardwork. The exterior landscape of the home is what everyone in the neighborhood sees. It is also the first thing you see when you drive up the driveway at the end of each day. Why should the man have to be told that the grass needs to be cut?
  10. Walking the dog. If the woman is the owner of the dog, this is generally not a problem. However, if the man was in any way responsible for bringing the dog into the household, then the woman has the right to assume that he will also take responsibility for caring for the pet. When the dog is whining at the door, she really shouldn’t have to point it out to the gentleman sitting next to her on the couch.
Run through this list guys and it give it some consideration. Nagging is often preventable. It just might take a little more effort on your part.
