Why do women repeat themselves over and over

Because they're nasty dirty whores!!!

Self-Hypnosis?

:sarcasm1:

Because you don't acknowledge them. Just say, "I heard you." Be careful not to add, "But, I don't care," or "Who gives a shit?" though. That would defeat the purpose.

Most of the people I know that get stuck in repeat mode are men.

And yes, it's annoying

Cuz maybe they know that you're not listening the first few times?

?

This makes the most sense. +1

Just stop what you are doing and listen for a minute...then huff the second she goes over

Why do dolts like the OP lump entire groups when describing behavior that might (or might not) be exhibited by some percentage of a population that might (or might not) be exhibited by a percentage of any other random population?

This.

Seriously I think some guys just find it annoying every time a woman opens her mouth, even if she doesn't repeat herself. In my line of work the workplace is mostly male and it's nearly impossible for a women to speak two sentences without being interrupted. Add to this the fact that a man -- usually one or two -- dominate the meeting droning on and on and yes repeating themselves, and no one interrupts them even though we all want to!

It's honestly quite weird but after observing this for about 30 years now I've concluded that there's something about a woman's voice that inherently irritates men and they just have to shut it up or they'll start screaming or something.

Sorry guys. I love ya one to one, but to be a female in a group of men can be very unpleasant.

I don't know why. I don't know why. I don't know why. I don't know why.

One female in a group of men is without any doubt very annoying!!

Good one.

I hate when you ask them about something they refused to shut up about and they resond, "I don't remember saying that."

:Faceplant

She thinks you are an idiot.

Women nag
men rant

sometimes it's because they are not being acknowledged

sometimes it's a control issue

and sometimes it's a pressure release of something that has been bothering them

then there are those that have just plain lost it

My wife explained it to me in this way


"If you don't repeat what I said then I don't believe you were listening"

Just say back to her what she said in your own words and she won't mention it to you again.

Because, They know we men don't listen!

Well, she might think that, but she certainly sounds like it.

Obviously....because men don't listen. And they don't answer us the first time.

I was born with the gift and curse of remembering everything. I can listen to women talk all day long and somehow remember everything they said even though I don't really care.

LOL, at last....an HONEST man!!!! Thanks for admitting it!

I think it's because they're still breaking away from mom and they suspect that mom still lurks in every woman they meet.....

Yup. My stepmother is one. She is in her early 60's and over the last 10-12 years she has repeats what she says, almost as if she's unsure she said it right. I know she's seen a psychologist and has abused pain meds over the years, so something is amiss. We don't talk about it. She did have an aneurism over 20 years ago, but for the longest time after, she never did that. We know our dad was verbally abusive to us and both mothers - but we all turned out well. It seems to be an underlining confidence issue. It's annoying as hell and very imbarrasing. She'll even do it while leaving voicemails. She'll say something (a sentence or two) and then repeat the how thing three or four times. It's not a stutter.

What say you?

^ "embarrassing"

That's almost as bad as the generalization that all women repeat themselves, over and over.

All work and no play makes Jill a dull girl.

Women are just stupid emotionally immature children. It is almost impossible to find a woman who can control themselves.

Working men just have no tolerance for useless women. They know that if they give women an opportunity to talk, then nothing will ever get accomplished. They have to put up with women because of affirmative action, but they want to minimize the damage that women are able to do by making sure they contribute as little as possible.
