10 ways to tell your man’s whipped

AS a man’s relationship with a woman progresses, it’s no secret that he’s going to become softer towards her, even letting her slide every now and then when she comes with some ridiculously emasculating requests.

The sad part about this fact, however, is that there are some men who get trapped into routinely performing these tasks and this type of male is what we like to call ‘whipped’. The even sadder thing about this kind of male is that he, more often than not, doesn’t even know he’s whipped because he’s all too glad to do the things any self-respecting man would much rather get kicked in the balls than do.

Here’s a list of things to help tell if your man is whipped, and if he’s doing all 10, then you might as well take all his pants to a tailor and have them altered to fit you.

– Javier

1. He calls you four times a day just to see what you’re doing, even though he already knows.

It’s normal to want to know where your girlfriend is and whether she is fine or not, but when you start wondering whether she’s fine every hour on the hour and call her to find out, then my friend, you are whipped.

2. When he passes up the championship match of any of his favourite sporting events to just talk.

Every sports fan lives for the finals so when he gives up that just to shoot the breeze he’s whipped.

3. If it’s his birthday and he still insists on doing everything that you want to do.

A man’s birthday is the one day that his girlfriend is supposed to go out of her way to make him comfortable, and if on that day he is going out of his way to do the reverse then he is whipped.

4. If he apologises for not being a more sensitive man.

All of a sudden it’s like men shouldn’t be men anymore! We shouldn’t want to act aggressively or avoid talking about our feelings. When a man apologises for doing things like this it’s like he’s apologising for being a man, and when he does that for his woman he is whipped.

5. When he becomes fine with you making him wait on you.

You’d think that after all the years of men getting upset with women for making them wait while they get dressed or whatever, that they would learn how to hurry. In fact, it’s like they get some deranged pleasure from making us wait for them long after we’ve gotten dressed. And when a man starts being okay with being put through that then he is whipped.

6. He stops putting up a fight for the remote.

For men the remote is the ultimate recreational tool. At the touch of a button you can have movies, music, sports, even half-naked women. When he starts giving up the remote to let you watch things like the Lifetime movie marathon then he’s lost the pants in the relationship.

7. He asks to hold your handbag when the two of you go shopping.

No guy wants to hold his woman’s handbag while she walks from aisle to aisle and store to store looking at stuff she most likely won’t buy. And if any of his single friends sees him doing it, he automatically becomes a teasing magnet. So if he starts asking to hold your bag for you then, aww you already know.

8. When his friends call you to see if he is free to go out.

If his friends have to do this it is clearly because he has forgotten that he used to have a life outside of the relationship with you. If he has no problem ditching his friends to spend even more time with you then he is whipped.

9. If he lets you paint his nails.

I don’t think this one even needs an explanation.

10. If he volunteers of his own free will to buy your feminine products.

If a man goes out of his way to but these things without any prompting by you, then I have to say that your man is unequivocally and irredeemably whipped.
