It's rare for a day to go by where women don't, quite understandably, complain about the annoying, even misogynistic behavior of men.

Addiction to video games, poor hygiene, too much excitement over a football or basketball game, bad table manners.

The list goes on and on.

But men don't only annoy women with their behavior.

Indeed, plenty of other men get equally annoyed or revolted by certain stereotypically "male" behavior, and wish it would come to an end.


Redditor sinliciously was curious to hear the things men want to put a "cease and desist" on which are regularly done by their own gender, leading them to ask:
"Men of Reddit, what is something you wish other men would stop doing?"
