The poll surveyed 2000 millennial women to find out which daily annoyances wound us up the most.
Be prepared to eye roll really hard...
Being sent explicit pictures, when you didn’t ask for them
Being charged VAT for sanitary products
The notion that women are bad drivers
Being asked if it’s your time of the month
Not being paid as much as male colleagues
Being approached by someone in a bar just because you are alone
Being chatted up on LinkedIn direct message
Being told to cheer up as “it might never happen”
Being told to calm down
When someone talks to your breasts rather than your face
Airbrushed images of women
Being wolf-whistled at
Being told your biological clock is ticking
Being asked if you plan to get pregnant
Tradesmen insisting on talking to your partner rather than you
Being asked why you do not have children yet
Having your right to choose debated by male politicians
Being mansplained to
Being called “love”
Being ghosted by someone you have been dating
People assuming you’re not the main breadwinner
Being bought household appliances for your birthday
Being asked if your breasts are real
The view that you should not have long hair over 50
Being told you have childbearing hips
Being described as a housewife
Being told you look good for your age
Being left with the wives of your partner’s friends at dinner
Waiters assuming the healthy meal or salad is for you
Anti-aging adverts
When the barperson assumes you want a half pint, not a pint
The waiter assuming your male companion is picking up the bill
Being chatted up in the gym mid workout
The assumption that you’ll change your name after getting married
The assumption that you look after the family calendar

After several years of backing the grey ones, Ms M eventually decided it was best to have her tenner on my own selections when we go to the racing. That counts as an admission in my book. |

At least she did not mind you betting mouse
I remember back in the past trying to persuade someone to move in with me, I had good win on the horses, and I said we can a good night out...She went mad because I gambled. Anyway she never moved in with me, she said I only wanted to get my leg over and then I would dump her...a bit hard I thought although possibly not untrue  |

I was thinking that there is something wrong with me as almost nothing on the above list bothers me in the slightest, then I looked at it again and of course the clue to the silly 'daily annoyances' is the fact that they surveyed MILLENNIALS who are aged between 22 and 37!

Everything upsets women under a certain age. And you'll never know exactly what - you're just left with some serious amount of detective work, which you just have to get on with.
You'll rarely solve the case with any concrete evidence. |
