Men vs Women – Punctuality
Posted on 12. Nov, 2009 by Gallivanter in Gender
This is one of my pet peeves – waiting for a woman to get dress. It’s difficult to blame them, as I think it’s in their DNA. Men tend to be on time, or at least within 30 minutes. However, I dislike being late as I think most men can say the same.
Women on the other hand, NEEDS to be late, as late as possible! I’m not sure if they think it’s some sort of fashion to be late, so all eyes are on them when they make an entrance. This will always be one of the mysteries of life.

I don’t really blame the women. LOL
I am the one who always waits for my wife. There was this one time in university where I waited her for 2 hours.

Men was created to wait for women, and thats that, haha. I meant it in a good way. Guys don’t like to be late, and women on the other hand do not want to be late also but their priority is NOT TO LOOK UGLY! They always thought they could get ready in time but there’s always last minutes changes, to the cloth, the matching color, hair or whatever. Haha I dont mind actually.. which guy do not want their partner to look gorgeously beautiful ^^

Fool her into believing the event starts an hour or two early. PROBLEM SOLVED.

For me, it really is depending on the event.. If I were the hostess, I’d be the first person to arrive.. If not, I usually arrive within that 1/2 hour timeline, so when we’re there, everybody’s there already… easy to spot your flock!
On the waiting part, I know it “hurts” but bear with it.. You don’t have to put on make-ups & choose jeweleries/accessories.. right?

It’s in their genes to be late buddy. I’ve never heard of a woman who is every punctual. Is she is, she’s probably a shemale … hahaha!

i beg to differ! im pretty much an ‘on time’ person and i dont like to keep people waiting, coz i hate that too.
but i do know some girls that just cant help being late. it’s either some things come up to make them take extra time to fix or do, or they just dont respect time and the person in waiting.
Some, i know too, PURPOSELY keeps the guy waiting just to show that she owns his balls. which i think is despicable. u can own a guy’s balls other ways, but not like that.
but on behalf of these unpunctual girls, i guess they don’t like to be the ones who wait for they find it humiliating perhaps. even appearing on time. they don’t want to look ‘needy’ and ‘desperate’ to meet u guys.so they make the guys wait instead. jual mahal maa…

That’s utter rubbish. I have always been punctual (except once because my train was late) because I think time is precious. I know a few people who are always late and there are men included in that list.

Nick, so that’s makes me a shemale? o’ow..:D cause i’m a pretty punctual person. Most of the time, always right on time…it’s actually me that do most of the waiting. my bf prefer me to look natural with minimal make up so i don’t really have to spend much time on make-up-ing…hihihi

I like Daniel C & Mimi’s comment too! He,he,he…
We are late because men always informed the girls on the spot that they are on the way to pick them up or suddenly say “Get ready we are going out for dinner”… so kelam kabut la getting ready… we have several clothings to put on… you guys 2 piece pun bole jalan mah… ;-p

Thanks for your thoughts, some feedback do contradict others, so it looks like there are 2 school of thoughts, women who defend the right to be late, and women who denies being late.

My thoughts on this is this – when you are late it shows you don’t respect other people’s time.
But this is Malaysia! We follow Malaysian “rubber” time. Meaning time is elastic! Plus 30mins Minus 30mins! Hahaha!

Fara – Yup, an excuse.
foongpc – Agreed on the respect part. Still, interesting to see 2 school of thoughts from the women – one being defensive about their late habits, and the other, probably denying that they have late habits.
