It's no dating mystery: A chasm of behaviorial comprehension exists between the sexes, and men often struggle to unravel the rationale behind the inclinations of women. Many single men say they simply don't "get" the female sex, but what specifically -- besides going to the restroom in groups -- don't they comprehend? I found out.

1. The Shoe Surplus. "Why all the shoes? Really, my sister has suitcases full of shoes that I've thrown aside more often than she's even seen them. It boggles the mind!" -- Mark, 25

2. The Hair-Tie Chaos. "Why, oh, why, can't you create a single, central location for your hair ties and bobby pins?!? And why is there one on the handle of the microwave?" -- Chris, 26

3. The Communication Encryption. "I don't get why women say one thing and mean something different. Like when they say, 'You can watch the game,' and then when you do, you get in trouble." -- Keith, 27

4. The Cattiness. "Why do women not like other women when they first meet? It's as if they have to prove themselves to each other before they'll consider them acceptable to hang out with." -- Aaron, 25

5. The Insectophobia. "Why are women so afraid of bugs but can regularly pour hot wax on their bodies and rip hair out by its roots?" -- Justin, 22

6. The Constant Drama. "Women and drama! It's like an episode of 'Dawson's Creek'! He said, she said... it goes on and on for years. Do you ever get over an argument?" -- James, 28

7. The Hunger for a Quick Hitch. "I don't get why getting married so soon is so important to most women. Is love not enough?" -- Brian, 24

8. The Attitude Transition. "I don't understand their attitudes! Everything is good for, like, the first three months, but after that, it's a whole different ball game!" -- Danny, 32

9. The Attraction to Jerks. "What I don't understand is why women really, really, really want that nice guy, but once they find one, they can't date him because now they need a jerk." -- Rob, 26
