the opposite sex

In a nutshell:

boys like food.
boys like sports.
boys like girls (sometimes).
boys like cars.
boys like sex.

They watch ESPN like it's going out of style.
They speed and think they won't get caught.
They play video games from the time they are five to sixty-five.
They are maturely-disadvantaged compared to girls until about college, when they learn to work up "to their potential" and surpass us all.
They have a dating disease until they get married.
They leave the seat up.
They can get ready in five minutes.
They play computer games when they are not playing video games.
They have penises.
They lift weights.
They are domestically challenged (sometimes).
They help make a baby.

These are some generalizations about the male sex, and they might be a little stereotypical but you kind of have to make sweeping generalizations when trying to talk about a large group of people. Stereotypes are not always true, but they also don't come out of thin air. I know it's not good to make assumptions about people before you know them and it's bad to stereotype, but sometimes you see individuals who complete fit and behave in ways that perpetuate stereotypes. I found some exaggerated stereotypes of certain kinds of boys/men; yes, they are dramatic but you have probably seen these guys out in public.



These guys are loud and persistent.



My new haircut is one big parade of profanity, but guys quote it nonstop. And if you have ever been to the Jersey shore you have definitely seen these guys.

Still, guys will do nice things for girls they like. Really, the only relevant part of this SNL skit is the beginning when the guys start answering their girlfriend's calls. The rest is funny too, but it shows that they can make sacrifices and commitments when it's important.
