Complaining is so ingrained into our 21st-century mindset that oftentimes we are not even aware when we are griping about something. It has become so quotidian, which is so ironic. Don't we usually relegate complaining to things/people that are different or who see things differently than we do?
Do men complain more than women? Perhaps not, but we certainly complain for different reasons. Alina Tugend writes in "Complaining is Hard to Avoid, but Try to Do It With a Purpose," that women, "...are more likely to complain rather than request an action. Men, on the other hand, tend to complain more to bolster their egos."
There is a new website devoted to encouraging us to complain less every day. Check it out. It is http://www.AComplaintFreeWorld.org.
