what do men think of men who don't drive

Postby minigirl on Wed Mar 19, 2008 10:01 pm

hi guys.

a while ago there was a thread started off in which it was asked "what do women think of men who don't drive" and there has been quite a variety of responses. after contributing my bit to that thread, i had this thought that it would be more interesting to ask the question "what do men think of men who don't drive".

so, what do you think of men who don't drive?

the original thread is here:

My instant reaction when I learn that someone can't/doesn't drive is the thought that they must be banned for drunk driving or worse, and this gives me a immediate dislike of them.

This is despite the fact that as a then urban dweller I didn't feel the need to learn to drive myself until my late twenties.

I don't drive, as I never passed my test. I tend to daydream quite a lot and, obviously, this does not make for a good driver.

I can walk fast, though.

why do people always say they DONT drive? They never say they CANT drive. Even though its moire accurate. Its like if they said I CANT drive it would be admitting to a failing even though its the truth.

People who cant swim dont say "I dont swim" they say I CANT swim.



always struck me as funny that

I can drive and I do. Im bot bothered if other men cant drive but I do wonder why they never learned....

men need to learn to drive and stop relying on others to ferry them around. They expect everyone else to foot the petrol bill and dont appreciate how much it costs to run a car. Then when you ask them to learn to drive they make excuses about global warming and car pollution, yet they'll happily accept a lift when they cant be chewed to get the frickin bus. Learn to drive and help yourself to help others.

Who the f*ck cares what a woman "thinks?" They typically don't, the narcissistic materialistic twits. Enough f*cking people drive their gas-guzzling, earth poisoning cars. Let them walk or take mass transit and save a future generation or two.

It always seems odd to me when I find out a bloke can't drive. For most boys learning to drive is the second most important thing to achieve!

Obviously there's nothing wrong with it really - it just seems ... unusual :?

I'm qualified to drive lots of vechiles, even tanks :)

Such good fun!

I don't understand why people don't drive (male or female) you can't do much without being able to do so nowadays.

Sadly, some of us are too dumb to drive! It's just something I've never been able to grasp! Still, you can give me a lift to the shops in your tank!

why do men react so badly when asked to learn to drive. Is it because they feel threatened? When a girl says to her boyfriend they arent saying it to bully or threaten anyone, theyre saying it to help and get you mobile.
