Guys vs. Men-Barry

Barry makes some very comical points about how guys are considered guys and not men. While I read all these comical facts about "guys", I thought it was ironic that a guy/man wrote this. It made "guys" look a little stupid and very egoistic. When I read about the business guys who decided to go down to the park and race eachother, I literally pictured all of this. "Which they did, a bunch of guys taking off their shoes and running around barefoot in a public park on company time." I pictured middle aged guys in suits or work attire racing eachother and one suddenly tries to hard to win and hurts himself. Guys have the biggest egos and I should know I have two brothers and a dad who always thinks he is right or better. They fight about being right till you just give in, its what they do. Barry also explained how guys buy such powerful computers that can probably do amazing things but they just simply type on and do absolutely nothing else. This was a very funny statement about guys because my dad buys many things that are usually the most powerful or have the most functions to them. He tells my mom that he will get good use out of these things, and years later he still just uses the damn thing for one use. Guys also have trouble communicating their intimate feelings as barry says. Women will talk for hours about a fight they had with their husbands but the guys will just watch the playoffs together. When Barry wrote "This is a book about guys. It's not a book about men," you have to believe him. Their is a huge difference between the two and usually, their is a "guy" in every man. At least every man I know.
