\"\"<\/a>Malawian Women can be cruel, and they often do cruel things to men. Despite their reputation as the fairer sex, when it comes to relationships, sometimes women can be downright nasty. It seems like a reverse sexism started to take hold as the feminist movement came about and equality for women began gaining ground.<\/p>\n

Some Malawi women use their girl-power solidarity to come to a consensus on what\u2019s socially acceptable for women to do to men in a relationship. They\u2019ve agreed among themselves that these behaviours are perfectly justifiable regardless of how they play with a man\u2019s emotions or ego.<\/p>\n

With that, we\u2019ve compiled a top 10 list of cruel things women do to men.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

No.10\u00a0They Don\u2019t Pick Up The Phone<\/h2>\n

You convinced her to give you\u00a0her number and you\u2019re feeling good about yourself. Your charm and good looks have obviously made an impression on her. Unfortunately, when you try to call, she doesn\u2019t pick up or, worse yet, she\u2019s given you a fake number. Some women will give you their numbers because it\u2019s easier than trying to tell you why she\u2019s not interested. What\u2019s more, in the age of caller ID, it\u2019s easy for her to avoid your calls. At least the women who give you a made-up number are being more obvious about the fact that they have no intention of talking to you again<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

No.9\u00a0Use Men For Free Drinks<\/h2>\n

Some women go out never planning to spend any of their own money on\u00a0drinks at the bar or club. Instead, they count on their feminine wiles to convince guys to shell out for their libations. Some of these women will take the opportunity of a guy buying a drink for her to begin to get to know him, but others (the cruel variety) will take that drink, flirt a little and move on to the next sucker with money to burn.<\/p>\n

No.8\u00a0Use Men As Placeholders<\/h2>\n

Maybe you\u2019ve been in a relationship for a while and you notice that her eye is starting to wander. She\u2019s starting more fights with you or not bothering to fight at all anymore. Her friends get quiet when you walk into a room. She\u2019s avoiding your phone calls. Her things are disappearing from your place. The AM article\u00a0Breakup Warning Signs talked about all these hints that she\u2019s thinking about putting an end to your relationship and, well, they\u2019re cruel things.<\/p>\n

If she is a decent person, she\u2019ll just get it over with and dump you already, but if she\u2019s cruel, she\u2019ll hold on to you for a while until somebody new comes along. These girls don\u2019t like to be alone and without a relationship, so instead of putting you out of your misery and ending it, she\u2019ll string you along until she meets someone to replace you. If she\u2019s really cruel, she\u2019ll start things up with him before she\u2019s finalised the breakup with you.<\/p>\n

No.7\u00a0Emotionally Manipulate Men<\/h2>\n

Men don\u2019t like to see women cry and some cruel women will take advantage of this fact and use it to get what they want. In general, women are much more emotional than men and it\u2019s easy for some women to use a man\u2019s complete incomprehension of\u00a0female feelings to get something out of him. A few well-placed tears or a temper tantrum and most men will do anything to get it to stop.<\/p>\n

No.6\u00a0Use Physical Violence<\/h2>\n

Men are usually raised with the idea that hitting girls is a major no-no. Unfortunately, there are some cruel women who use this aspect of a man\u2019s personality to gain power over him. In the minds of some women, it\u2019s perfectly acceptable to slap a boyfriend across the face when he says something to piss her off. Knowing that he would never hit her back, this type of woman feels like she can inflict any kind physical pain on him without fear of repercussion. A man is also less likely to tell someone about suffering\u00a0physical violence at the hands of his girlfriend if he believes he\u2019ll be thought of as weak or pathetic.<\/p>\n

No.5\u00a0Criticise Their Men In Public<\/h2>\n

A growing trend in television shows and commercials is that of depicting men as bumbling idiots, while their wives and girlfriends are intelligent, in control and flawless. This may contribute to the real life practice of cruel women who criticise and humiliate their men in public places. Women can get away with this in ways that men would never be allowed to. When a woman pokes fun at her man or even soundly debases him, the group surrounding them is more likely to laugh than to be appalled.<\/p>\n

No.4\u00a0They Don\u2019t Disclose Their Relationship Status<\/h2>\n

You\u2019ve pulled out all your best moves and you seem to be making progress with the cute girl you\u2019ve just met. When you finally get to the point when you feel you can safely ask for her number, she smiles and says: \u201cI have a boyfriend.\u201d That information would have been nice to have\u00a0at the beginning of the conversation, love. It\u2019s certainly not the worst thing a woman could do to a man, but it is annoying when she lets you assume that she\u2019s available so that she can enjoy your flirtation and flattery.<\/p>\n

No.3\u00a0They Withhold Sex<\/h2>\n

This is a time-tested, and frequently used, cruel thing for women to do to men. For most men, sex is as important as breathing, so withholding it in order to get something she wants or simply to punish her man for his transgressions is a pretty low thing to do, even if it is effective.<\/p>\n

No.2\u00a0They Test Their Men<\/h2>\n

You\u2019re all ready to go for a night out with your friends, when your girlfriend calls and asks you to change your plans to be with her instead. She doesn\u2019t have any particular reason; she just wants to see you. She knows that you had plans to meet up with the guys, but if you really loved her, you\u2019d come over to her place instead. If her request comes with an \u201cif you really loved me,\u201d then it\u2019s a test. If you choose anything other than immediately rushing to her side, you\u2019re going to fail. This kind of testing in a relationship is indeed cruel and petty.<\/p>\n

No.1\u00a0They Flirt To Inspire Jealousy<\/h2>\n

Maybe she\u2019s feeling underappreciated, maybe you\u2019ve just had a big fight or maybe she just enjoys the tortured look on your face. For whatever reason, girls who flirt obviously with other guys in front of their boyfriends are immature and manipulative.<\/p>\n
