>I missed coming home to postgame my bad dates with my roommates over a cup of tea.
For whatever reason, I think men are a lot less likely to engage in this kind of social behavior, even if they are roommates. They're also a lot less likely to engage in spontaneous dance parties or enjoy group hip hop twerking exercises. Basically, a lot of the benefits of having roommates that the author describes are experienced far less often by men with roommates
We just do it differently... "postgame work over several beers" is the norm in every house I've lived in, even when we didn't know each other well.
Perhaps experience varies, but I've never talked about specific dates in any detail with even my close male friends (let alone roommates)
Pretty much. And I'm not even remotely saying it's a good thing. This is one of a myriad reasons men objectively live shorter, less healthy, and lonelier lives. You can speculate a million more reasons as to why, but it's just the reality of life.
