Men are sharing their dating icks on Reddit and it proves why women always choose the bear

Men’s dating icks all give me the ick for men


A load of men have shared their dating icks on Reddit and their responses are so alarming that I now want to live on a dessert island with only cats.

Who knew that women were guilty of repulsive sins such as travelling, voting in elections and wearing high-waisted jeans?

I will warn you that after reading these responses on Reddit you may want to delete Tinder and Hinge, throw your phone into the ocean, and never interact with a single man again. I wouldn’t blame you.

These are the most disturbing icks that men say they have about women, according to Reddit:

Well, I have no attraction to men who get the ick from shoes

“I have no attraction to a woman that wears flats.”

Sweetie, did you forget what century you’re dating in?

“Politics. Like shut the f**k up about who you voted for and your views. I literally don’t care about politics and I’m not going to comply with your political dictations. Like I just wanna know what your favourite colour is and if you like pizza.”

God forgive a woman goes on holiday

“When they mention guy friends or ex-boyfriends. When they mention all the places they’ve been. I’m just thinking how much d*ck she’s had.”

Don’t worry, Mr Reddit user, Keir Starmer will fix the females for you!

“Smokers. Not only do they smell bad, but it makes me question their intelligence/judgement. There’s also the logistics of them taking smoke breaks while I am supposed to just stand around idly.”

Ick

“My icks are women like this who define feminism as “men should be slaves so I can do whatever I want.”  Start acting like an adult, and stop being a lazy gold digger.”

Oh I’m so sorry for asking whether you like me. Didn’t realise that wasn’t needed for a relationship

“Oh, and can’t forget the hardcore aversion to rejection. It’s disturbing the number of women who want to know, with 100 per cent certainty, who likes them and why. Anything less than that stings and they refuse to tolerate it, so they just push it on the men.”

And what’s your hobby other than complaining about women on Reddit?

“A lot of them have no hobbies, a cell phone isn’t a hobby. Do anything! Knit, draw, checkers anything lol….”

God, women are just so selfish for wanting to sleep with me

“When they don’t care about you – they care about what you can give them. Most of the time it’s sex. People are so selfish nowadays.”

This comment is a crime against women and against denim

“High waisted jeans. Ick. Get rid of your Mom jeans and just wear normal mid-rise with a belt. Way sexier, in my opinion. To me they look as ridiculous on a woman as they would on a guy. Ick.”

No, please don’t keep adding to this list

  • “Lack of accountability and victimisation
  • Unable to improve herself
  • Ungrateful
  • Risk blind
  • Self-centered
  • A radical of any type
  • Lazy
  • Prideful
  • Unable to take rejection
  • Childish in a bad sense
  • Chronically online
  • A “Feminist” who cherry picks which parts she agrees with. You either in or out.
  • Misandrist
  • Very promiscuous

I’ll keep adding once I can come up with more, but any of these are absolute dealbreakers to me.”

‘Appealing to the senses’? I feel ill

“Offering it up on the first date. Bringing up marriage on the first date.  Being ‘too’ perfect. Asking me what I do for a living right out the gate. Negative talk, about self or others. No willingness to meet my needs.

“Lastly, but not least, hygiene. A woman should demonstrate that she takes care of herself, but most women do. Seems you all have a knack for making yourselves appealing to the senses. Keep up the good work!”

Maybe you could listen to what the pretty face had to say?

“I mean honestly, give me something interesting and deeper than a pretty face and makeup.

“I have reached that level where I’d rather dated someone with too many hobbies to get her hair done or shower daily.”

Valid

They don’t like dogs.

Well, you’re radiating ‘Creepy and Sexist Man’ energy

“They radiate ‘Broke and Narcissistic Woman’ energy.

Oh excuse me, I must apologise for wearing clothes

“My ick is girls that dress up too much. Or more precisely, girls that only post pictures of themselves dressed up.

“It’s an obvious attempt to give off a false persona. Because when I meet those girls in real life, if they’re not absolutely trashy, they’re just basic.”

You’re definitely nothing of substance either

  1. “Female narcissism
  2. Loud/shrill/obnoxious behaviour
  3. Centre of attention
  4. Nothing of substance going on in her life”

Oh, I’m so sorry for wearing wide leg trousers while I listen to Chappell Roan and drink my Blank Street Matcha 

“Kinda conformist to whatever’s trendy, which is a big turnoff. It’s usually walking red flags who specifically choose to use it. It shows low-intelligence, lack of empathy and low maturity/self-awareness.”

I’m sorry that we’re all too stupid for your Einstein-esque brain xxx

“When the internet is her personality. A lack of ability to critically think on her own. Also talking about her ex.”

This floor mat comment makes me realise that the bar for men is on the floor

“Being called a misogynistic pig because you don’t want to be a floor mat is laughable. Moral of the story is that any women who says anything remotely like that into a relationship should probably not be in a relationship.

“Yes, there are even guys or white knights who will call other guys misogynistic as well, which once again is laughable because they’ve also been brainwashed to believe they should be a floor mat for a women, even to the point that they tell other men the same lies to make themselves viewed better by said women.”

I really hope this guy doesn’t meet women at a pub then ask to inspect their feet

“Long toe nails. Greasy hair. Dirty feet.”

‘Being overweight even a little bit’?!

“Materialism, flakiness, fakeness, too much makeup, being overweight even a little bit (I’m very fit), attitude problems, sense of entitlement.”

Yes, because if girls keep telling you that you’re not mature enough, the fault is clearly with all womankind, not you

“The ones that are the first to criticise “maturity levels” in someone. I’ve found them to ironically be the most childish. They desperately need someone more mature than them to continue raising their childish asses.”

You impish knave

“Women referring to themselves as ‘goddess’ or ‘princess’.

Erm, I’m pretty certain that the NHS web page on psychopaths doesn’t mention ‘wants to go on a date to have fun’

“Dating to escape boredom. If she thinks the relationship is a tool to escape boredom, she’s probably a psychopath.”

I would not feel lucky to be on a date with this dude

“When she acts as if she’s some sort of prize to be won. Like I should feel lucky to be on a date with her. That’s when I typically place my hand on my chest, throw my head back, and have a hearty laugh.”

He clearly doesn’t appreciate true art

“Fake nails. Ick. To me they might as well be fake toenails. Ick.”

I bet he’s an Aries 

“Passenger princess is a big one. Super into astrology is another. A height requirement, even if I meet it, is no good. Smoking for sure. If they’ve got one of those copypaste profile lines (where do y’all get them from?) Being into Harry Potter.  I can’t f*ck a HP follower.

“Any kind of psychological game-playing or manipulation. I’ll pay attention to how you talk about other men the same way I would how you treat service staff.”

And complaining about women on Reddit is such a good use of time…

“My biggest ick is lack of effort on dates. Like please stop wasting my time. Either improve your social skills or don’t go on a date with me.”

You could just… not say anything with weird connotations?

“I’ll add girls that want to have delicate conversations over text so they can interpret the connotation and possibly start an interstellar war.”

*Gasp* not the hip hop!

  • “No long term goals
  • Doesn’t take health seriously
  • Fights with their friends all the time
  • Doesn’t Like Hip Hop”

Oh, I must apologise to you that strange creepy men objectify me on the internet

“When on her socials 99 per cent of her followers, likes and comments are random men. Especially if her profile is private.”

i don’t know what to say to this… 😭😭 #ick #icks #redflags #redflag #icklist #guywiththelist #fyp #viral

Damn, I wonder why some women might hate men

“Girls that aren’t good at having communication. Inconsistent girls like they said one thing in person and another one through text. Girls that are impulsive. Girls that try to make me jealous and get piss off if I play the uno reverse card on them. Girls that comment on how much they hate men. Girls that said that men are dogs. Girls that judge me without knowing me. Girls that jump to conclusions. Girls that believe rumours about me without talking or interacting with me. Girls that accuse me of things without confirming anything.

“Girls that go sleep around with other dudes. Girls that talk and sound like they are commanding a group of soldiers. Girls that talk ghetto, Girls that don’t care around their surroundings like they want to do the deed in front of a restaurant at Saturday night when is full of people coming in and out. Girls that insist that they want to see my d*ng when parking in front of a restaurant and having people looking at us on the each side of the parking lot. Girls that claim they only thought of me as a friend when they had confessed their love for me a few weeks ago and only said that because they are mad that I didn’t reply to their text. The list goes on.

“Things that I don’t mind are girls that are clingy. If they are toxic, I tend to be passive and talk things with them and see how it goes.”

Please/just/stop

“Materialism/vanity/shallowness.”

Dear God

“Almost any mention of God – there are so many ways in which this exposes how insane someone is. I’m glad when they reveal it quickly.”

I think my ick is excessive sexist list making

  1. “Rudeness.
  2. Misandrists.
  3. Extreme tardiness.
  4. Lack of interest.
  5. Lack of effort.
  6. Smoking.
  7. Drug addiction.
  8. Alcohol addiction.
  9. Lack of impulse control.
  10. Lack of accountability.
  11. Uncleanliness.
  12. Entitlement.
  13. Superficiality.”

I’m scared

“Cherry-picking feminism.”

Oops.

“People who use the word “ick” to describe non-attractive qualities.”
