This "Guy code" crap can kiss my ass. It's just something that lame-ass scumbag guys try to pull on decent guys so we won't rat them out. So they try to play on the manhood of men. It's crap

4. You don't know "the guy code" - I've said too much already
It's this lame "code" that basically says, "You can fuck around or do whatever you want behind your S/O's back, and I won't say a thing because we're both men, so I understand being a scumsucking piece of shit is all about being a guy."

22. That's not the guy code.
That's the a**hole code. No need to follow it, unless you are one. (And if you do, you are.)

7. As a non-guy, I'm guessing that HEyHey is referring to
the idea promoted in the pop culture that men are supposed to be mean and dumb and treat women as disposable and interchangeable.

12. "If you've known a guy for more than 24 hours, his sister is off-limits."
I have a couple fucking friends who don't understand this concept.

13. See, exactly
When you don't abide by this code, you're labelled as some kind of subversive.

16. I don't rat on anybody.
Not because of any "guy code" or anything. I just figure that it's not my place, as long as nobody is getting physically hurt. I've had some female friends that have admitted nasty things that their husband/SO didn't know about, but I didn't go running off to rat on them either. Not my business to interfere in the relationships of others.

17. It's not "running off to rat"
But, if a girl asks me flat out...depending on the girl. I'll tell them.

18. Maybe its a humanity code...
...instead of a guy code. What am I supposed to say to a guy's girlfriend who is screwing around? "oh by the way Jenny, guess where your BF has been dipping his wick?" Its none of my business other than pointing out to the guy that he is not acting in the best way.

20. I agree don't be a fink outta the blue
But the guy code dictates you have to lie for the son of a bitch...I won't.

Unless it's something like.
"Dude tell my girlfriend you saw me throwing up today so she'll leave me alone and we can go get blasted tonight."

21. I would never abide by the "guy code"
Of course, none of my friends would be able to ever score TWO women, much less one.

Shit, I'm lucky I have a girlfriend. Why would I fuck that up by screwing around?

And none of my friends would be so low as to screw around on their girls, and if they did, I'd feel no guilt about ratting them out. I know what it's like to be cheated on, so I sympathize with it, guy or girl.

24. I'm female, and I always abided by "The Code", which is a code for
both men and women. The code said that you don't bang someone that your friend is going out with (or banging). I wouldn't even bang someone that my friend used to bang until a good number of years have gone by and it wouldn't bother her.
