Girls vs boys!

Boys eh? We just don't understand them and they say the same things about us. To clear up the boy vs girl mystery we asked SMTV:Live's Ant, Dec and Cat some tough questions...
Why do girls snog a bloke then flirt with their mate?
Cos a smart young lady would keep her options open. We don't like to put all our eggs in one basket and anyway, blokes are just as bad.

Why do girls complain about their hair not being right or their figure not being the right shape, even when they're gorgeous?
Everybody has a bad hair day, but us girls still like to be told we look nice even if we don't feel like we do. So a girl's got to do what she's got to do to make somebody pay her a compliment and if that means moaning 'til the cows come home, then so be it.

Why do girls moan about period pains?
Cos they hurt! Some people get it a lot worse than others and I think I'm quite lucky in that department. If it's not happening to you it's very difficult to understand the pain. Boys are always the worst when it comes to pain - they moan so much especially if they've only got a cold.

Why do girls gossip with their mate on the phone for hours even though they left them an hour ago?
Probably cos you forget to tell her something as you've both been yacking so much, trying to cram in as much gossip as possible. Then, when you've got home, you suddenly realise there was something else you forgot to say and it's a life or death situation cos you've got to tell her immediately.

Why do girls spend all their spare time shopping?
Cos it's brilliant! I'm the worst actually as I don't shop because I need something, I just shop for shopping's sake. But a top tip is when you're out shopping and you can feel your money burning a hole in your pocket, don't buy clothes. Buy a bag or a pair of shoes cos you can bet that the top you bought for the sake of it will never be worn. Whereas your bag or your shoes will always go with something but an impulse buy will never leave your wardrobe!

Why do girls fill their handbag with rubbish?
Boys always have a go at girls for this. But the thing is it's just in case of an emergency. You never know when you might need that last bit of Twix that you've wrapped up or that that extra bit of gum that you have to pick the fluff off. And the chances are that when you ask me if I've got a plaster or a tissue in my bag I'll have one. Boys moan about the bag thing, but they're pretty quiet when they need something.

Why do girls need so many shades of lippie?
Your lip colour has to be just right and it depends on so many things like whether you've got a tan or what you're wearing. And if you're anythin like me, you need to reapply. I go through lipstick like there's no tomorrow!
