QUESTIONS MEN ARE TOO SCARED TO ASK WOMEN ... BUT WANT TO!

Men just don't "get" women, and instead of talking things out and asking questions about female behavior that seems to boggle their minds, they stay tight lipped and confused.

A few brave boys spoke out to bloggers at Redbook magazine about some of the questions men are too scared to ask women, but really want to!

• "Why do women have so many shoes?"

• "Why do women talk to their friends about their sex life?"

• "Do women think we don't know they are wearing a padded push up bra?"

• "Why do women hold it together for complete strangers but totally flip their lids on their boyfriends or husbands?"

• "Does size actually matter to you?"

THINGS THAT WOULD BE AWESOME

A man's brain is always working and thinking of new things that would make life better.

Anytime you hang out with your buddies, someone will always ask a question that begins with, "You know what would be awesome ...?"

The answer to that question could be something like, "A comfortable chair that's also a toilet and a beer cooler." Or maybe, "A girlfriend whose friends don't hate you."

Whatever it is, guys are always thinking about awesome things that don't yet exist.

Here are some awesome things that men would love to have in the future:

• A shaving device that shaves your face instantaneously by using lasers.
• Alarm clocks that wake you up with the smell of sizzling bacon.
• Cars that drive themselves so that you could drink all you want or sleep on your way to work.
• Eye implants that help you spot fake boobs.
• Light sabers. (Star Wars came out in 1977 ... You'd think these would have been invented for real by now.)
• Alcohol with no hangover. (Guyism)

SURVEY SAYS: SOME GUYS ARE PARANOID

The annual AskMen.com "Great Male Survey" asked guys about their views about snooping on women. Here's what they found ...

Have you ever read your partner's Facebook messages, email or other electronic correspondence?

• 38% -- No, I respect her privacy.
• 29% -- Yes, but only with her knowledge.
• 15% -- No, but I would if I suspected she was up to something.
• 12% -- Yes, but only because it was open on her desktop.
• 6% -- Yes, I broke into her email or messaging account.

Are you comfortable with a partner "friending" her exes on Facebook?

• 43% -- Yes, absolutely.
• 33% -- No.

5 OUTFITS GUYS SECRETLY HOPE YOU'LL WEAR

We all want to look our best and dress to impress that special someone in our lives, but even if our wardrobe is at the height of fashion, there are 5 simple outfits our guys secretly hope we will wear. Can you guess what they are?

• Jeans and a Tanktop: Simple, right? Well, most guys think this is super sexy -- casual and looking beautiful without a lot of work.

• The Librarian Look: Nothing says naughty like a form fitting pencil skirt and a tucked in blouse. Throw your hair in a bun and don your reading glasses for the full effect!

• Strapless Cocktail Dress: Don't go with trends -- guys like classic elegant when you are getting dressed to kill.

• A Fitted Sports Jersey Representing His Favorite Team: If he's a sports nut this is a must, and if you don't have a fitted shirt of your own, borrow his oversized jersey and knot it in the back for a sexy, midriff revealing look.

• Tight Yoga Pants: A win for us -- these are super comfortable! (Yahoo Shine)

4 PLACES NOT TO GO ON A DATE

When you just start dating someone and you're in that getting-to-know-you stage, it's important to choose a place that's conducive to promoting communication and a comfortable atmosphere. When planning a date, be sure not to choose ...

... a loud club or bar: If you can't hear each other speak, how will you get to know each other?

... somewhere you went with your ex: Why would you want the reminders or the possibility of running into your former beau?

... somewhere you aren't comfortable: If a fancy restaurant isn't your thing -- don't subject yourself to it. You need to be in your element so your true self will shine through

... a party with people he doesn't know: This isn't the best way to introduce him to all your friends. Get to know each other first and then slowly introduce him to your best gal pals -- it's much less intimidating. (SheKnows.com)

MOST GUYS ACCEPT THAT THEY HAVE TO PICK UP THE CHECK

According to the annual AskMen.com "Great Male Survey," here's what they found about guys -- and their views on picking up the check during dates.

How many dates should a man pay for?

• 42% -- The majority of them until the relationship is established.
• 16% -- No more than the woman does.
• 24% -- The majority of them for the duration of the relationship.
• 17% -- All of them.
• 1% -- None. The woman should pay for them all.
