Current Events > T/F: Men don't truly speak frankly with women present.

(+) Yeah! (+)

vs men among each other. I bet women don't have a similar problem. CE is a testament to this idea, so is Lord of the Flies.

False.
Less vulgar, perhaps.

True, and it very much does work both ways.
---

Depends on who the woman is. Female friend, yeah the same. A friend's girlfriend? Hell no.
---

I certainly drop all the locker room talk . You know, "Grab em by the pussy", or "lock em in the basement", or my personal favourite "follow her home and record her eating habits through a gap in the window".
---

Depends. Most people don't as peak frannkly ever, though a few always do.
---

Like you mean sexually? Cause I sometimes think women sometimes don't get the degree of perversion in men. Like if they could be inside our head and know how it really is.
---

Cause like I feel they would have a constant look of horror on their face if they really knew what we were thinking. Maybe run away in terror too.
---

It depends on how much I respect the other person.
Annoying ass bitch who I work with? I swear more than usual out of frustration.
Brunette Boss Lady? I've yelled at others for swearing around her <_<

I try to speak the same way with women around but sometimes it takes effort

Kinda this.

Although I'm still vulgar as fuck around my best friend's girlfriend.

But he's my best friend and we have similar senses of humor, so I figure if she puts up with his fucked upness, anything I say should be relatively fine.

False. Sex has little do with it.

However, I will speak less frankly if there is a stranger/new friend present, and I will speak less frankly the more people I'm around.

With two close friends, one of whom happens to be a girl? I rarely hold back.

I dunno, poll results disagree.

I answered the question personally. Generally speaking, yeah, most guys do hold back. That's what the term "mixed company" is all about. Let's not be uncouth and all that.

True.

Why do you think this is?

True, with all the feminazis, SJWs, and with how sensitive people are nowadays it is difficult to have a frank conversation like that of the 80's or even early 90's. Men have to be careful on what they say or some special snow flake will be offended and make it a big deal.

Why do you think this is?

Probably because most people are raised to not be foul around mom, and that shit carries on for life.
---

I think that women appreciate the fact that I don't speak differently around them
---

I dunno. It's a bit more complicated than that. How I speak to my wife, my close friends, my wife's friends, my co-workers, my family etc. are all different for different reasons.

Like what my friends find funny is different than what my wife finds funny. Likewise what I find funny from them is different. I wouldn't say one is more frank than the other.
---

I speak frankly around both.
