Apollo List 23: Why do normal girls travel in packs?

Apollo Sharp · Post by **Apollo Sharp** » Sat Nov 17, 2001 5:06 am

I guess they're afraid of guys. but they even ask each other to go to the bathroom with each other. i asked one why and they said they talk to each other. even while they're on the toilet.

*raises eyebrow*
are you saying i'm not a normal girl? grr....
btw, i like my bathroom privacy, i hate going in public ones. i refuse to. the only time i bring someone with me (who will only be kathy) is when i throw up....er.....i have Social Anxiety Disorder....dont ask.
But anyways. I prefer to not travel in groups. i'm one of those who slips easily through the crowds, and talks to loners. Otherwise, me and kathy make a big scene *grin*. play fighting and me singing her love songs.

It's called "hive" mentality.

1.) Guys aren't as social and verbal as girls. You know, if a girl decides to go to the bathroom, by the time she's at the doorway there will be 5 or 6 people tagging along with her. While guys, on the other hand just say something like "Man, I gotta go whiz like a racehorse" and take off. Wouldn't it be strange and.. not right if a guy were to say, "Hey, lets go to the men's room! We can chat there! Come on, Jake! You can use the big sink!!" (o_O)

We just like to talk! God, it's not that hard to understand. We have more fun in groups. No one really like to be a loner, it's no where near as much fun!!!

Actually, I've always been somewhat mystified/annoyed by the phenomenon, myself. I have to agree with Anillenium on this one, I like my privacy. I find myself feeling just about as insecure and uncomfortable in a group of girls as I do when I'm alone... I do best traveling in pairs. I need one other person with me when I'm in public or else I feel nervous, but if I'm in a group (especially an odd-numbered group) I tend to feel like I'm either imposing or being left out. So... I dunno. this is just speaking from my experiences so far, and, really, it depends on the people I'm with. <P>Yes.

I don't do well in large groups either. I can be in a conversation with two other people, possibly three if I'm really awake, but any more than that and I just drop out. I don't do groups. And I've never done the group bathroom migration thing.
I'm most certainly an introvert and a private person. But nobody ever said I was normal either. Heck, many people think I'm a guy. But they're wrong, silly people. Erhum...

I'll agree with Ironpaw. o.o

O.o odd, I've always wondered about that myself ^_^;; and I'm a girl. I prefer to basically be on my own, if I do hang out with friends then usually only one or two. Eh, but I guess you can't really call me normal.

Well, I'm a pack girl. I like to travel in groups of 7+. More people, the more fun! If you're in a big group, you're almost never bored, because there's almost always someone to talk to. I just like being with my friends, at all times if possible. It's just more fun that way!

I'm that girl who always has like 10 or 11 girls in a pack at the mail shopping with her! I like it- the more the merrier! Plus, more people to get extra $$ from!

YEAH! Me and SDB are soooo together all the way!

Crazy, I think there are a few differences. Anyways, I got this hat that's really pretty and it has a POM-POM on the top!! I love pompoms! plus, the hat's from Aeropostale, so it's really fashionable

Well, for us who aren't ms.popularity, we pee by ourselves. it usually doesn't require spectators.
