I hate people who always complain. I complain rarely or if there is a valuable reason to complain. The house owner of my apartment visits us once in a month and there will be a meeting. We can talk about our complaints in that session. I felt that some women purposly come up with some complaints for the sake of complaining. I never raised a complaint there. Once I found that the cleaner lady was not doing a good job, so I direcly told her to concentrate on cleaning (instead of complaining to her boss) and I got the result. Do you think women complain more compared to men?

i think yes,more women are more sensitive than guys and they complain a lot than boys.this is because one factors is their hormone,environment changes,mood swings,more irritable..and etc.men are more understanding and are more patience that is why they mostly our shoulder to cry on.

I think that will be a reason. It is true that women are emotionally weak and they express their emotions more compared to men. I have seen that women cry more compared to men. So,if they have a complaint against soemthing, they would like to express it out rather than keeping in mind and keep worrying about it. Thanks for the response.

hi daliaj yes maybe we do as we are so often thrust into 'having to do just that when something in the home goes 'wrong, we are the ones who are there so we get the dirty jobs. are we the complaining type not anynmore than guys because they let us handle all the messes' while they are at work. we have to call the various] companies when something does not work and make our ]complaints about it. I think in a residents meeting 'here that it is the squeaking wheel that does get'the grease.so if we do not voice our complaints nothing will get fixed at all. so yes we do complain more but mostly 'with reason.

Wow, nice to hear the 'woman' side of the story. I do respect all the hard work you put in on your part and after watching my mother for so many years I know how difficult it is to manage the house, specially those which contain pests like me.

I agree with you, and they are never satisfied with what they have. They simply wants to comes up with something to whine about, and never stop. I just hope that they would be fulfilled at least something, and keep on what they do daily. I just tired of it sometimes.

hi,daliaj.I don't like to complain,either.boring and helpless.why do this? but I see the women's compaining in another way.sometimes women use complaining as a way to communicate with other women or to attract the attention of their husbands or boyfriends.not really nagging.

no i dont think women complain more compared to men.. it is a myth i think.. there are only two types of ppl in this world complaining related.. namely those who complain and those who do not complain.. if a woman complains it is not the problem in her sexuality...

I have to admit so... Generally women do complain more than man. I guess it may because of women are like talking and pickly... One of my colleague just mentioned to me yesterday, that one of her female friend keep complaining with her for every little things she met. My colleague feel tired of hearing that... Thank you for your question and have a great day.

Yes its true for me though I'm a woman. I admit that woman complain more than man because I've a lot of woman that are complainers and I really can't take the way they complain! They're so irritable and sensitive. I don't like to talk to them. I have a schoolmate who's my co-member in our organization here and I really hate the way she complains because she's so affected by everything. I just hate the way she speaks when she complains and that girl is so moody so we have to adjust for her. Who does she thinks she is? She complains even about a simple matter like time, clothes and EVERYTHING. its hard to talk to her. Even to her boyfriend? She always complains about what his boyfriend is doing. I wish she could realize what she is doing to us.

I am a girl, but I absolutely hate the complaint or gossip there. Some of my colleagus like to judge others from the back or sometimes they like to complain for the triffle things. Every time when I happened to this situation, I would like to escape from the gathering. Everyone has their advantages and disadvantages, just talk to the guy you are not satisfied, I think it would be a great solution for those who like to complain. But some people did so just because they did not have important things to do, or maybe they just want to kill the time there. It can not be denied that women complain more to the men, assumed that women are more sensitive. But that is not a rule, it depends on the personality. I met some of the guy who like to complain also. Happy mylotting.

two reason comes to my mind, being more sensitive and more emotional. As woman are more sensitive, they tend to react to anything (and complain) they see is not right or good or fit with taste. Being more emotional, they tend to be more attached to things and hurt if they see somethings bad. And most of the time their complain is valid, but sometimes its just way too far. And you are right some women complain for the sake of complaining. Simple mistakes, small dust in the house, dirty laundry, etc.

Not really. I'm a guy and I once had a reputation as a complainer. It was really because I used complaints to start conversations or to attract interest. I think guys can be just as bad as women when it comes to that. Its basically a lack of thinking of interesting things to talk about or a certain negative attitude. You're right, too, you have to make a decision not to complain. I did.

I too dislike complain and I always tell to my companion if you like to stay on long on your job done it well with no complain as in complaining it result only on delay affecting the productivity. So it someone do not like her work she should get out so she could no longer whine. Thus, complain may only be necessary if their are some conflicts on someone schedules or if she notice some flaws in the products or services. Both men and women complain but most of the times the scenario goes to state women are great complainer. I see for myself women are a bit radical and emotional disturb in some sense that they could not keep calm unless they voice it out. While men complain but not really emotionally that they would not brag about it as I could see men as a silent operator if they could solve the problem on their own way they do it on their own style without becoming too noticeable.

I have a different opinion. I always argued with people that women do more work than men and they do it silently. WOmen do 10 jobs and tell none. Men do 1 job and tell 10 others. I know women can sometimes me a bit chirpy and talkative. But when they complain we must remember that she does only when she has crossed her limits of sustainance. Otherwise she is happy to carry on her duties without the next person knowing.

I don't think that women necessarily complain more than men do. I just think that women are more apt to express their complaints. Men will pout and brood about something. Women will vent their frustrations. Sometimes expressing your opinions is the only way to get results.
