    Wtf is this doing on the list? This is in no way an oxymoron.

    While the word male can be used to refer to non-female children, it is equally (and more commonly) applied to adults.

    I think the concept here is that “men” are perceived to act more immature than females by exasperated women who are in relationships with them. Ever heard the joke “What’s the difference between a stock bond and a man?” Bonds mature. The battle of the sexes is still alive.

    I think rather than coming from a linguistic perspective, it is coming from the sexist view that males are never adult. You’re quite right, it is by no means an oxymoron.

    Isn't today's society great? If a man makes a funny sexist comment he's fired from his job and kicked in the crotch by the entire female staff, but when a woman makes a funny sexist comment she's being celebrated by the entire staff, gets a promotion and is published as the greatest creative mind in the history of time in all the major newspapers.

    Sure, sometimes light sexist jokes can be funny (if in the right crowd), but let's try to keep it on equal terms (now that's an oxymoron).

    The whole “pms”ing thing is only getting old because it happens for two weeks every damn month! And you don’t need to diss that, because obviously YOU’VE never been there.
    You think it’s all, “Oh, I’m bleeding, oh well, life can go on?” Nope. It’s more like:
    “Ugh! I started again… I have to make sure I stay near a bathroom at all times, can’t go out if the cramps and headaches are bugging me…”
    Then we get all pissed ‘cuz no MEN really care! You think everything is all fine and dandy…

    P.M.S is Pre Menstrual Syndrome… it happens BEFORE, AFTER AND DURING a girl’s period.

    May I refer to you a book titled Men Are From Mars, Women Are From Venus?

    Ladies, it is true that on average, you mature first, but from years of observing adolescent dunces (with occasional decents or talents), I must note that the way the males act is below human. Is it any surprise that the perverse pregnancy rate is rising? It will take a human level of morality on the part of the male and a high sense of barriers for the females (although my wife would rephrase that so that the ladies look even better!).

    Just because girls have there periods every month doesn’t mean shit. Your not the only ones with something going on. Guys have stuff going on in there life too, sometimes that shit is worse than your fucking period. Your just a masochist bitch bent on being sexist to men. When do you ever see a guy complaining that he was dumped or some other shit. Thats because were not assholes that have to make excuses to act like a douche. Periods aren’t the end of the world. Go complain about something that matters like your parents got shot or your getting divorced. Also girls complain way to much about shit that doesn’t matter. I’m fucking tired of all you stereotypical Hippocrates. If men had periods you’d complain that it gets old too. so fuck off and stop being sexist. You say your a nice girl but you’re just like all the other sexist bitches out there. go join a feminist party and wonder off in the desert and die.

    The phrase “adult male” is summed up in one 3-letter word:  ”man.”  And this perspective as men being the “kids” of adults is reversing the idea of females being the “fairer sex.”  I don’t know though.  They both have mature qualities of their own.
