Men lie for no reason because women make them

Do you want to know the reasons why men tell lies? Those reasons are asking to be seen.

First off, a man lies to a woman to gain her approval because he simply cannot do without it. Second, he lies to prove that he can really stand out in a crowd, and therefore he deserves to find favor with her. And last but not least – he lies to her because it is easier for him to cut corners that way. Telling lies also helps him to get off scot-free when problems arise.


Men lie because of their women

And you can always trust that we’re telling you the truth when we tell you that ‘size doesn’t matter,’ and we like you all the more now that you’re balding, but mysteriously gaining more hair on your back. :)

Bwaaaaaa-Haaaa-Haaaaaaa!

Well, fortunately, only the jerky guys lie.

I'm making turkey jerky as I type.....No lie.

Wasn't tioga referring to women?

Prolly better than this one.....

Wife modelling new blue jeans for hubby. “Honey, do these jeans make my ass look like the side of a house?”

“No, honey, they don’t.”

“Are you sure?”

“Yes, honey, our house isn’t blue!!”

Rosie certainly is a strapping example of womanhood.

Another prize-winning headline. Isn't "because women make them" then a "reason" why men lie?

THATS BS!!

If a woman wants to know the truth, I tell her the truth.

If she wants me to say something, then she should just tell me to say it.

If you ask a question, you’d better be prepared to hear the answer.

I posted that as written at the website. I even had to delete an extra "TO" at the end of the sentence. This was from a Russian newspaper and the translation could be the culprit.

I've been told NOT to change headlines... so that's how it came out and that's how I posted it (well sorta).

“”SCOTT FREE””

Is that implying that a grown man can somehow get in trouble, otherwise.

I don’t understand how grown men get “in trouble”

I know...my comment was directed at the source, not at you. I'm Russian myself (moved w/ parents to the US at age 6), and familiar with the various grammar errors and mis-translations into English.

Even funnier than the headline about lying...it came from PRAVDA!! Don't care who you are, that's funny right there!

Woman: "Do I look nice in this dress?"

Man: "Yes, you look great".

It's the only possible answer........

Suggested alternative:

Woman: "Do I look nice in this dress?"

Man: "What do you think?"

Woman: "I'm asking your opinion."

Man: "My opinion doesn't matter - it's your own opinion that counts."

Woman: "I'm afraid it makes me look fat."

Man (taking her by the shoulders and pointing her toward the nearest mirror): "Look, you need to fall in love with that woman right there. No external validation can ultimately make any difference in how you feel about yourself."

Such questions are a sign of immaturity and low self-esteem - the man should try being the grownup (for once) and helping her grow past this instead of ducking the question with some stupid white lie.

No, I’m just saying, when I was ten years old I would try to lie to my mother to stay out of trouble.

I am not ten years old anymore and my wife is not my mother, so I cannot relate to grown men that feels the need to lie to stay out of “trouble”.

Wasn’t there a time when women liked men that were, you know, men.
