An Australian woman has left thousands in stitches with her lengthy list of things men do that give her the ‘ick’. 

Popular satire account Miss Double Bay, run by Sydney woman Claudia Bursill, shared the 50-plus-point list which included when a man whispers, runs with a backpack on or still uses a Hotmail email address. 

Also considered a turn-off is when a bloke doggy paddles, starts a conga line during a night out, drinks from a straw or waits for the green man at a pedestrian light. 

The micro-influencer’s tongue-in-cheek ick list amused many of her 56,000 followers who were quick to share their thoughts on the things men do that turn them off. 

Blokes who introduce themselves as an ‘entrepreneur’, make their golf hobby a ‘personality trait’, have a ‘signature scent’, bring a speaker to the beach and have Burning Man photos on their dating profile also made Claudia’s ick list.

Other icks were just plain bizarre including a man finding shade when feeling hot, travelling with a soft shell suitcase, saying the word ‘froth’, running after the bus and bending over to pick up dog poo. 

‘When they can’t find somewhere to put their bag in the overhead locker on a plane,’ the list continued. 

‘Budgie smugglers with fruit or animals on them – STICK TO THE CLASSICS.’

Some men’s food and drink preferences were scrutinised with the inclusion of taste testing ice cream with a baby spoon, drinking milk or ‘sippy yoghurt’, ordering a take-away espresso shot or Bircher muesli at a cafe and liking craft beer.

‘Standing there naked waiting for the shower to get hot’, ‘losing their footing on the bus, resulting in quick steps’ and ‘talking about their gap year after the age of 21’ also made the list.

Men who use lip balm, drink from a bubbler, wear sockettes, use emojis during an argument over text, don’t rub their sunscreen in properly on their face, go rock climbing, or drive a Hyundai Getz were also seen as irritating.

There were some Sydney-specific icks including finding men who went to Sydney University or live at Bondi Junction a turn off.
