[Mara the Ice Princess]

Honestly I think guys are realy simple!! I have two brothers and there is nothing conusing about them!! And I don't bother with guys my age.... all the guys in my class are jerks... I learned that the hard way....

I don't think it's a matter of gender. I think most people are pretty confusing; very few people present their entire selves to other people, and that holding back is what causes confusion and misunderstanding.

I think it depends on the socialisation.
Girls and boys learn different things what they should be like and what they should take care of. Even if nobody will stand in front of you and say "You have to" you will learn that from your environment, the media, etc. Even if you parents try not to put the typical stereotypes on you, they cannot match the rest of the world who will, even if people won't do that on purpose.

So a girl has a different point of view than a boy and therefore the other gender can be quite confusing.

Most people don't have the ability to have a look on things from a different angle. Btw, I find girls confusing who try to start a deep discussion without proper grammar 3nodding

Understanding the opposite sex is really confusing until you learn the tricks. For one, guys almost nvr look each other in the eyes when they are talking, they almost always look other directions. Girls however, lock eye contact and almost never break it. Anything else is almost like saying that you aren't interested in what they're saying. Guys, it's much easier to understand women when they aren't thinking you're ignoring you.

Guys and Girls want the same thing. Understanding. What they say doesn't change. It's what they mean. Guys tend to be logical, which is why women don't understand. There is no emotional connection with us. Our thoughts tend to be logical. To see a dog that is walking lost, we'd say, "that's not good." and move on. Look at a product designed for men. Take razors, shampoo, cars, anything made for men. Almost all of them continually express what it can do. How much power it has, how advanced it is, ect. We're all kinda like Dr. Spock from star trek. We don't understand emotional impact as well.

Women use their emotions when talking. Which is why guys don't understand. Women like things like cards, flowers, ect. Not all, but many gifts if not all gifts designed for women have emotional impact. Watch an ad for womens perfume, shampoo, ect. It's all based on feelings. Guys, if you want to understand, look at what they are saying from an emotional standpoint.

Girls like to feel, guys like to think. This doesn't always hold true, for i know men who feel, and women who think. But 90% of the time this is the tried and true formula. and if you're wondering why, i'm majoring in advertising. I have to know this. Good luck to you all.

OP, your spelling, grammar, and typing are nothing short of murderous-rage-inducing.  

[anime_freak_kouga]

I don't think one gender is confusing, it's people in general.
My own Mom confuses me a lot of the times, the decisions she makes, the reasoning behind them etc.
My older Bro is not confusing at all, I totally get him and his ways. I know why he does what he does, I know why he feels what he feels.
I don't get my Grandpa very much, why he favors one child over another.

Every single person is different, most are confusing, like myself. Even I confuse myself.

This is the truest statement i've read. And also think of this: When ever two guys argue what's the normal outcome? A fight then a drink at a bar or just a laughing fest of how stupid they were. With girls (This is my own opinion) they either: settle it with three or four conversations or fight and never talk to each other again until they realize that the fight was stupid. Anyway, Girls are truly confusing to me for the fact that they want the guy to express how he feels, and 9 out of 10 guys normally cant or dont show emotion, because they may have been raised knowing that emotions get people hurt. BUT if they try to express themselves in their own way, the girl may misread the actions and think something completely different. Now im not saying every girl and every guy is like this. I know a lot of guys and girls who hold back or just let their emotions go wild.

So its just a matter of the situation. Girls will normally be confusing to guys for the fact that we dont truly know what to do in many situations, or that we do know what to do but dont know how to procede with it. And one of my female friends told me this: "Guys are confusing only for the fact that they are either simple minded, or so easy to figure out that its frustrating."

Well... It really depends on your point of view. For me, guys and girls are equally confusing; and in that, they are also less confusing.

...That's probably only going to serve to confuse you more, however, so I'll explain:

I'm not a girly-girl. I'm not quite a tomboy, either, I don't think. I don't take forever to get ready in the morning; I take ten minutes, including the eight it takes to haul my butt out of bed. I try not to think too much about people, as it makes them more than simple. Stereotypes haven't been in my life so much. I can as easily talk to a guy as I can a girl. The only thing that changes is what we talk about, and even that depends on the person.

Really, what I'm trying to say, is that girls aren't so different from guys and guys aren't so different from girls; it's simply how we think. People say that girls are more materialistic and guys are all about sex, which--while it can be true--is often wrong.

If you want to get to know someone, don't think about them as a 'guy' or a 'girl'. Ignore that, and anything else about their outwardness, and find out who they are. They may think or feel completely differently from what you first expected.  

[Verderbnis]

It's al a matter of the viewpoint. I don't have any problems to speak with females, but some things confuse me but always get solved. I really do not like "Ladies", "Bitchez" or "Goddesses" or whatever you think off for yourself. I don't what to serve or dominate in a relationship, I want equality. My last few relationships broke, because my now ex's wanted me to lead, which is absolutely not my way, I am more fan of walking hand in hand whereever our ways lead us to.

I am pretty easy to understand, I just love playing with hidden cards and preparing surprises, I am fascinated by almost everything she currently does (even if it's something "boring"). But I am really not into hysterical emotions...  

[Master Bei Shin]

It really depends on the person. I can read people well, and because of that I don't really find people confusing. Guys convey emotions and thoughts more clearly, usually verbally, while Girls use more body language. I noticed that some girls I know can talk for hours, and still not get thier message across. Others can simply establish a point with direct eye contact. I can usually get a point across quickly, as can most of my male friends.

I think guys can be quite confusing at times.. like you said, they say things and mean another, but they also hide emotions well, and you can't really tell what they are thinking..
But! I bet girls are as confusing to them as guys are to girls.
