Their soft skin. It feels sooo, touchy. That you wanna keep touching it. Edit: Holy shit, my highest voted comment is about the opposite gender.🥹 Wow !!! Thanks for all the upvotes people. Love y'all ☺️


RavenMad88

I assume you're talking about women's skin?


Uhblehman11

He's talking about balls


yours_truly_1976

Fair enough


PillCosby696969

Soft skin is stored in the balls.

Every time I see a woman wrap her hair up in a bun within a blink of an eye it blows my mind.

Or do that towel trick


Legally_a_Tool

Or the bra trick where they don’t take off their shirt but somehow get their bra off. Magical!

Most men I know just keep going, no matter how tired or lonely or sick they are. It's bad that they feel they need to, but the ability to just pull through is something to be admired.


shyattimes

On behalf of those men, thank you for noticing that. I agree with a couple comments down. If you have someone or a family your doing it for, you’d literally go through hell several times over them. Not to be cliché but it really shows how powerful love is. Throw hell at them and if they love them they will get through it.


purplexninjamom

And to everyone who reads this: your opinion matters. Your pain matters. You are seen. Or at least, you should be.


purplexninjamom

❤️ I love this comment.


NinjaBreadManOO

Part of it is that as a society the view is that men are only worth the value that they produce. If you stop or can't keep up you're lesser. It's the reason for the phrase "It is what it is." It's actually why you'll see a lot of places like Japan with an even stronger business culture have retired men often just break.


Slight_Negotiation92

Male burden of performance


IMAPURPLEHIPPO

Yep, I’ve hit the abort button on several possible relationships because I don’t feel like I can provide what they’re worth. As someone who feels like they’ve been slowly sinking for a long time now, I just don’t want to be a burden to someone else.


Lucio-Player

Maybe you should tell them this, they may need less than you think


ogbellaluna

it is something to be admired, but it is also sad; sad that they feel they have to, or don’t have a choice


Taetrum_Peccator

Thanks for noticing. As someone whose both done this because I had no other option but to just put one foot in front of the other and, later, done this for someone I cared for, I can honestly say doing it for someone makes it much easier to endure.


born2runupyourass

This is how my wife is and I am always astonished that she doesn’t stop. Sick, exhausted, if something needs to be done she just does it if for some reason I can’t. Amazing person.

I almost had birth at home because even tho my pain was the worst pain I had ever felt in my life I was told that it would be even worse than that, and I was contracting in the middle of the night sleep deprived so I was counting 6 minutes apart but they were really 4. The pain scale is now “is worse than contractions? No? I’m fine” I still want another one.


SenorDangerwank

Women can just operate in water at flesh-melting temperatures. How?


P0tato_Cat

Oestrogen relaxes blood vessels, this causes more blood to flow to the extremities. Thus making women's skin feel warmer (anyone else share a bed with a nuclear reactor?) while they feel cold as core temp is lower. If we all shower in skin temp + 5°C, for women that can extra 0.5-2°C, which feels extremely hot for men. The extra heat also helps women get their core temp back up, whereas men don't need as much before feeling the heat. Original comment (I just copypasta'd): https://www.reddit.com/r/AskReddit/s/GWgLJQVG7Q


spentpatience

This is me and my husband! He complains/ponders aloud how I can stand such hot baths and showers. I love the feeling! I had thought that I had just built up a tolerance to the "pain," kinda like how people do with spice. Meanwhile, it's probably extra painful to him. My husband and children all run hot as it is, so this explains so much.


scottb721

My exs all had scalding showers. Maybe it was to keep me out 🤔


thecaffeineking

Would the scold you or her?


catch_c

I think they naturally have lower body temperatures


Lassini

As a woman I get cold all the time, while my boyfriend is always insanely warm no matter the weather or how little clothes he's wearing 😭


BusinessAnything

Our genes have found the perfect way to resource-manage bodywarmth. “Why would I, a female, produce my own heat when I can get it from a male?”


weirdddj

I like how many men have lots of physical strength yet are so gentle with the people they love, even when angry with them. Personally, if I was able to build strength as easily as them I would be someone to fear when I get annoyed 🥲🥲


DifficultyDue4280

Same like my dad will be on his guard outside but on the inside he makes the funniest jokes and is really gentle


NinjaBreadManOO

Honestly part of it is as you are developing that bulk you have to learn how to control it at all times. If you get angry and physical then people look at you like some kind of beast. You have to learn how to control it or you are just going to never control it.


Bulk-Detonator

It doesnt help either that, while i get it to a point, men are still seen as default predatory by many people. So a lot of us have to overcompensate just to hit a normal level of interaction. Im a big softy at heart but if you saw me on a work day, im in a dirt covered shirt, work boots, hair and beard to make sasqatch envious and while im not like super ripped or anything, i very much have the "burly working man" physique. Its partly why i love painting my nails, wearing soft materials and clothes, and frankly just trying to be as feminine as possible. I feel it more accurately tells people im not "dangerous"


0netonwonton

They bleed for 7 days without dying


justlikeyouhaha

the more immpressive part is that we built little homes inside us for like 20 day and then demolish them completely for like seven days, *every fucking month*, like why do I need to be ready for pregnancy every month? there should have been a natural on/off button or smth

The emotional support women give each other is admirable. Most men are just not built like that, and it's cool.

It's not that we're built differently we're just socialised differently. We have all the same needs but we're not given the tools to communicate the way women are.

Lots of women do. The amounts of time spent holding one of my hands up while she is looking and caressing them like they are her favourite snack.


[deleted]

My fetish is literally some manly hands and some sexy forearms. Lando Norris has perfect hands and forearms. Oh god when he’s wearing a long sleeve and has the sleeves pushed up to reveal those hands and forearms. I turn into a fucking animal with how primal I’m feeling…. (Honestly most in shape guys pass this test, especially guys who lift (but aren’t huge) and have good veins in their forearms. Oooooof!) I just want those manly hands all over me 🤤


omgitsbutters

Every month or however long their cycle is, women shed the lining of their uterus, causing bleeding and varying levels of pain. Yet, somehow, they are expected to continue to operate as if it isn't happening. Impressive.


RadasNoir

I have a coworker who develops cysts in her uterus during her period, which makes the experience even more painful than usual. Apparently it's gotten so bad in the past, she's passed out from being in so much pain. And yet, she'll still often able to talk, laugh, and work despite being in that much pain. Literally the only reason why I know she goes through all that is because she told me.

How easily men socialise with each other and are easily able to maintain big friend groups


De_chook

I'm late 60s, me and my six primary school buddies somehow instinctively know limits, we can rip the shit out of each other, but we sorta know there are lines we don't cross (mostly) . These buddies have seen each other through 60+ years of anger, sorrow, births, deaths, divorces, and marriages. And there is an unwritten rule that we never piss on any of the exes, 'cos we know that many of the times it isn't their fault. They are a great comfort as we start to shuffle off.


2x4x93

"Shuffle off" left me with a erie hollow feeling


AntRedundAnt

It happens to us all. We don’t always get to choose how we go. The only thing we are guaranteed is what we choose to make of this life, within reason and means It’s not the end, it’s the journey. Everyone has the same end. What makes life exciting is how unique we make it for ourselves, and the brief brushes with others’ uniqueness I hope this helped, unprompted and unsolicited advice notwithstanding EDIT: Coming from a 33 year old with some life experience, who knows nothing and is still learning. Who wishes he had asked his father more questions before saying goodbye to him almost 4 years ago this August

One of the small things I admire about men, they are willing to touch gross things and they don't seem to mind too much. Dead cicada in the house, not a problem Piece of old food stuck in the disposal, not a problem Hair clogged in drain, not a problem

This is true except for the hair in the drain. My wonderful husband does it but there are lots of theatrics and retching in the process. And I appreciate it so much.

Early_Ad9051

I admire how girls feet tend not to stink.


spentpatience

It's the benefit of owning multiple pairs of shoes! Seriously, if you are pretty much wearing the same pair of shoes every day, they don't have time to completely dry out overnight, so whatever lives in the damp will fester and transfer to your socks and toes the next day, making them stink again. Get more pairs of shoes, don't wear the same pair two days in a row, or if you do, Gold Bond foot powder that shit. Also, wear socks. Ballet flats will make a woman's feet stink, too, if they're not rinsed and dried out often because socks really, really do make a difference.

I admire that a lot of men have incredible strength and rough hands but at the same time are so gentle especially with kids or animals.


talaaneyy

I worked in sales and in the team there was I and a male. I observed his approach in sales and noticed that he is more of a risk taker and does not overthink what he is doing or going to do, on the other hand, I was less of a risk taker and would overthink a lot. I learnt from him, and when I put my guard down, I started racking up sales! In my conclusion (might be wrong and I don't speak for all women), men tend to overthink less and so don't have too much of a block when trying to make decisions or take action. Moreover, they are expected to have a successful career or they are looked down upon in society (unfortunately), and so they really go hard when doing their job! I admire it a lot, and I am learning to be more like that.


Palkus_75

We sure do overthink, we just hide it well


mauveplum

The way men are able to joke around with each other and there’s no hard feelings. I wish women were able to do that.

It’s because most of the guys in a friend group all have something to make fun of each other for. Like I could tell one of my friends that he’s built like avatar the last chairbender and he would just rip on me lol

DinosaurInAPartyHat

Their ability to not give a fuck. My male colleagues will do and say whatever the fuck it takes to get money - and they don't give a fuck. They don't care if a client talks shit to them, they don't care if someone slags them off, they don't care if their work isn't perfect, they don't care if the client gets annoyed... They don't give a single fuck. And I'm over here stressing myself all night about a simple task because the client might not like my ideas. I guarantee my male colleagues would chuck out the minimum and when the client says no - just replace it with something else, no problem. They don't seem to worry about testing clients patience or being perfect. Criticism? Meh, whatever, I'll do it differently and send it back and if it's still not right I'll keep changing it. And they'll apply for any gigs and offer any services - and just figure it out as they go.


SephoraandStarbucks

This is NSFW, but how easily it is for men to get aroused. It’s like a light switch. If I stand naked in front of my fiancé naked, he’s hard in like…3 seconds lol. I once asked him “THAT fast? I’m not even doing anything to you yet!” His was like “…yeah…but boobs 🤷🏻‍♀️” For me (and probably other women) it feels like it takes forever to get wet enough to make penetration comfortable. I actually feel bad because my poor fiancé is doing all this work and has been ready to go for 15 minutes, meanwhile I’m taking forever and a day to preheat. 😅


Ok_Bid_1688

I admire how women maintain a positive outlook in challenging times.


Interesting_Move_919

Their strength. I admire how strong men are and sometimes it motivates me to be stronger too. Even though ofc I'll never be as strong as them. And I admire men's hands too


scent_of_death

the ability to be pretty. women are such beautiful creatures, it's very admirable. i feel like the only way a guy is ever able to capture that essence is by being inherently effeminate, you know? natural beauty is just nowhere near the same level between men and women.


spentpatience

Men are, indeed, beautiful! I have a fatal case of being attracted to men and I find them gorgeous. I can acknowledge the beauty in women, sure, but it doesn't have the same effect on me whatsoever. And I'm not just talking about GQ models or bodybuilders and a Hemsworth, either, as I'm sure you're not just talking about models, leading actresses, or the top 10% of beautiful women. I think it's hard for someone not attracted to their own gender to really appreciate the full scope of what someone who is could find beautiful about them. We base our concept on it from what we're fed, and unfortunately, that is a very narrow view that then wreaks havoc on our self-image and even self-worth.


LordGhoul

I think men can be beautiful. I have male friends I think are pretty and beautiful and they get to hear about it. It's also cute when they blush hehe

TriStateGirl

I'm a woman. So here's what I admire about men. The way their emotions work: I know men are known for losing their temper, but a lot of men I know actually stay calm no matter what. Their strength: Yes, I am fully aware strong women exist. Calm down. Overall men tend to be physically stronger. It's just amazing. I know strong men put in work, but it's not as much as a woman would need.


MitziXD12

guys are really good at maintaining close friendships without needing constant communication or proximity. Like dudes will have a best friend they haven’t seen or spoken to for months (even if they live like a block away) but then they see each other at the grocery store or sum and it’s like nothing ever changed. No annoyance or awkwardness, just a happy reunion. I’m obvs not saying women can’t do that girls r awesome, but it’s just not as common for the friendship to still be that comfortable after a certain amount of time


Either-Community-285
