20 Things People Think All Men Do But Actually They Don't

Some of the biggest myths about men are so common that people barely question them anymore. From hygiene habits to car knowledge, the assumptions can be wildly off once real stories start coming out.

That is exactly what happened in a Reddit thread where one user asked what people once thought all men did, only to learn otherwise. The replies quickly turned into a mix of awkward, funny, and surprisingly relatable confessions about the things people had completely misunderstood.

The answers get more specific, and a few of them are a lot more revealing than expected. Read on. JizzusChristopher

Oh, the world of drinking is a lot more interesting, my friend

That assumption did not last long.

If that were true, it would be pretty weird

Some of these replies get very specific, very fast.

Oh no, who did this to this poor mom?

The car stereotype takes another hit here.

This is similar to the woman who refused to let her teen brother sleep in her bed while she was away at school.

It's up to them if they don't want to age like fine wine

We cannot stress this enough: please wipe your ass

Foamyferm

We have to say, we're kind of surprised by some of these, especially the part about not washing or wiping butts properly. Still, it's nice to gain a little perspective.

Apparently, some things men do with themselves remain a mystery to some people. What are things you thought men did but don't actually?

That question is doing a lot of work here.
