Trialbyfire Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 What do you mean by that?As a female executive, you don't last long in that position...many times never getting there, without strong personal discipline. This means you learn to step back from your immediate wants and needs, to view your work environment and situations in a rational manner. If you lose your cool, lust after line staff, etc, you're going to get yourself into deep kimchi...STAT! You also have to think in long-term goals, never "now" thinking.

A woman in a position of power would not want to date a bouncer because her lifestyle requires a much HIGHER level of control; being around someone who values doing whatever the f he wants all the time would endanger everything she has worked so hard for. My point was that it wasn't dissimilar interests / lack of stuff to talk about (as you mentioned) so much as differing values which would lead to incompatibility.

No, no one can affect you unless you allow it. You also never control your partner. If he's not the right fit for your lifestyle, why get involved in the first place? For example, I'd never date someone who's heavily into substance abuse or dependencies of any kind. Your body should be treated with respect, including no steroids. Eat healthy and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
spookie Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 If he's not the right fit for your lifestyle, why get involved in the first place? I see what you're saying, but that's my main point. Those types of women wouldn't get involved. Not for a lack of common interests, not for a lack of attraction cause bouncers have no money like vonerik would like to believe, but because of lifestyle incompatibilities.
vonerik012 Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 It's all very silly. As I said, many men become powerful later in life. 40-55. Often times they are already married for many years. So, now that they are "powerful" they can no longer have conversations with their wife? Or relate to her? Thats just silly. They married young, and she might be a housewife, or a teacher, or just any other regular job. Works out fine. It seems "powerful" women just want an excuse for being a "golddigger". "Oh I must be with a powerful man because he can relate to me". It's only a job, and it should not define all aspects of your life.
sweetbutcheeky Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 I don't know if this was touched on cause I skimmed. But who you date also makes a difference, certain races or personal preference appreciate curves or "thick" woman (black) vs others want thin and trim (white). Also woman are more forgiving on that category then men. Yes I know that was a lot of generalizations but we know it's true!
spookie Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 http://www.skinnyvscurvy.com/category/skinny-versus-curvy-battle Personally I think the curvy women are way hotter in every single case, but what do the guys think? And the other girls?
vonerik012 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 The problem is "curvy" women in the photos are skinny compared to the American population. if a woman describes herself as "curvy" typically she is obese.

I couldn't have said it better myself. All those women pictured have hourglass figures and small waists (relatively speaking). Women who describe themselves as "curvy" in real life look nothing like that.

Women who describe themselves as "curvy" in real life look nothing like that. Fair enough, but I'm still curious: who is hotter? The curvy women with the bodies that, while awesome, are still IMO attainable (and fairly average). Or the crazy skinny girls.

I don't care for skinny women unless they have really big boobs.

The curvy women with the bodies that, while awesome, are still IMO attainable (and fairly average). Or the crazy skinny girls. The "curvy" women have skinny ankles, skinny arms, and an hour glass shape. I doubt most men would have a problem with the skinny Eva longoiria, or the curvy Kelly Brook. All of those women have great bodies. Look how skinny the "curvy" Kelly Brook is. The curvy women in those pics weigh far less than the average American female.

The curvy women with the bodies that, while awesome, are still IMO attainable (and fairly average). Or the crazy skinny girls. Hotter to me personally? J-Lo's way too skinny for me. She photographs curvy but the camera adds inches (in candids). Here's a personal favorite of mine when she was skinny: Liz Taylor in "Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" Then, later, when she was "curvy": Candid personal shot Though her clothes hide things a bit, you can see her fuller face and hints of a thicker waistline. IIRC, she's an apple shape, so gains weight in her middle but still has a relatively flat butt and thin legs. Although the former picture is very beautiful, I find the latter more attractive. It's personal preference. I just dealt with this on a recent trip with my wife and her girlfriends. One of them has worked out at the gym for years and was always very fit and thin. The last couple years she's "let herself go" and let her natural curves evolve. She mentioned something about going back to the gym while we were driving, to which I retorted "oh, so you can look like a man again?"....that earned me a wasabi peanut in the head But, if you read my journal, things got a bit interesting later. That's what I'm talking about. I personally think, since she's gained her curves back, she's sending out more female attraction pheromones. In any event, I saw a quantum change in how I viewed her. It will be interesting to see, if she goes back to the gym like she said, if that vibe dies.
sweetbutcheeky Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 Skinny, curvy, thin, thick ... I think there is someone out there that is attracted to every type, so I don't think it's a problem. Myself I don't like a guy that is too skinny. I remember a guy I dated, we were laying on the couch watching a movie and something was sticking in my side. He thought it was his belt so went and changed into jogging pants, turns out his was his hip bone!
Lizzie60 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I agree.. there is someone for each type.. I also don't like skinny men.. eewwwww... I don't find skinny or fat people attractive..
vonerik012 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 I think the point is men are not that picky, lol. If those were average "curvy" women we would be in heaven. The "skinny'" are beautiful as well.
vonerik012 Posted September 5, 2008 Posted September 5, 2008 As an example, that same site is calling Gisele Bundchen "curvy". Yes she does have curves. But she is 5" 11, 127 lbs. The average American female is 5" 4, 163lbs.
