What you wish your Japanese boyfriend/girlfriend would quit doing

Today?s goo Ranking silliness is a look at what guys wish their girlfriend would quit doing and what girls wish their boyfriends would quit.

Demographics

Over the 25th and 26th of November 2011 1,074 members of the goo Research online monitor group completed a private internet-based questionnaire. 57.4% of the sample were female, 11.6% in their teens, 14.7% in their twenties, 26.9% in their thirties, 25.0% in their forties, 11.1% in their fifties, and 10.7% aged sixty or older. Note that the score in the results refers to the relative number of votes for each option, not a percentage of the total sample.

Wifey tells me that the main thing she wanted me to stop when we were dating was farting?

It?s interesting that it appears that women have more complaints, and complain more about the same things, regarding their boyfriends. Is spitting really that common on dates that it gets to be the fourth most popular issue?
