Guys can never understand why girls insist on traveling together everywhere they go. Women always seem to feel the need for company when walking to the bathroom or any place at all. Men constantly wonder why this need exists as men are more solitary beings requiring less companionship.
There are a few practical reasons why girls travel together everywhere they go. First, I believe safety is a reason why girls go places together. When women are out late at night there is always the fear of some drunken guy acting inappropriately or something of that manner. Security for a woman is very important. No one wants to be the center of attention if they are the only person to get up at a table or anywhere else. They ask their friend to go with them for security.
Next, when girls are out with a group, especially guys being in a group will give them a chance to talk about the night. Girls are able to express their opinions about other people in the group, and see what t heir girlfriends feel about the situation.
The group trip to the bathroom serves a logical purpose as it is a chance to talk about the night, provide security and gossip about what might happen after the night has ended. Now maybe us guys can understand why women insist on group travel to the bathroom even though I personally still do not think it is necessary.
