5 Guy Things Girls Don’t Know About

Ah, the age old toilet race we hold with ourselves. It sounds a little odd, but the concept is completely simple and something every man does. I'll explain...

Men are naturally competitive at just about everything. Even when we're alone, we'll compete with ourselves. In a toilet race, when a man begins to relieve his bladder, he'll totally flush the toilet mid-pee and race to finish before the flush is complete...

See, that wasn't gross. Now, if you're man says "that's stupid, I'd never do that..." he's lying. Every man, and I mean every single man on this planet has, at one point or another, started a race with a toilet.

It's true, while a man may only take a few minutes to get sparkling clean (it can be done ladies) it doesn't mean that we don't waste a little time in the tub.

Shower rituals, much like religion, vary greatly between individuals... but there's one that remains the secret bond tying us all together.

Men, for whatever reason, will cup their hands, hold them to their chest, let the shower fill it up, then proceed to dump it to the floor in a splash of ancient glory.

No idea where it came from, it was probably an early sapien tribal tradition a million years ago that has somehow transcended through time. It's in our DNA because every man does this same thing. (chances are women do the same too)

I noticed this for the first time years ago in college. As I would sit on the balcony, I would see dudes headed to their apartments randomly throughout the evenings. All of them different, all of them varying in background and personality... but there was one thing they all did the same.

Men, when alone, will totally enter 'Beast Mode' on any staircase that gets in their path. That is to say, a man will start hopping two or three stairs at a time to ascend a flight quicker.

I noticed too that I did the same thing. It has to be another DNA based trend of bro-code because it doesn't matter if fatty is quad-quad and a half... he beasts on the stairs.

Every guy knows what 'The Nod' is. It's that look we give all other men, and occasionally the more 'handsome' women. Add in that there's two distinctly different 'nods' and I'll explain.

I think this trend is something that was picked up centuries ago from somewhere in the Roman Empire. It stuck through the dark ages, showing up everywhere from polite European society to the hard trails of the Wild West.

You've probably seen it yourself. Two dudes will lock eyes (one usually catches the other veering at him) and instantly they'll both lower their brows at each other. That's nod number one.

Nod number two is where both guys will 'pop' their brows up at each other. Also known as the 'sup'. This nod is a true sign of a douche.

Most men have at least a few female friends. Friends, aquaintances, coworkers, friends mom/sister, other bro's girlfriends and wives, ect... Every single man, at some point in a friendship will fantasize about their chick friends.

There's no harm in fantasizing I suppose, we've all been told it's completely natural. But at the end of the day, that dude you threw into the friend-zone is only staying there in hopes of escaping one day.
