[LondonS]

I agree what she says about Facebook. I think it should apply to both sexes. Classless.

[a_woman]

it's kind of whiney. I'm always uncomfortable when people make a post in my name (ie open letter to men by 'women'). why use 'we'? why not 'I'? I only agree with about 20% of it

[jamesum]

It sounds like an article written by a 16-year-old who suffers from chronic Cinderella Complex.

[Cracker Jack]

I only kept my browser on that page for more than a min to stare at her boobs.

[GorillaTheater]

I don't know; it didn't totally suck. A few valid pointers on winning brownie points with your woman, particular proving that you did in fact hear and remember some reference she made a few weeks ago.

 

Personally, I think any woman with cleavage like that deserves a listen.

Behave, it's a social networking tool and that's what I use it for.

 

This article is whiney and I have heard it mentioned a thousand times. It is what she likes, not what women like in general.

 

Opinions are subjective and are continuously taken as fact.

Yep, infantile. So what if you are jobless and stupid, you ordered SCOTCH and smell good!

[meerkat stew]

YES, that makes you look fat!

[Knittress]

Whenever I see her I wonder what shapewear she's using and what she looks like on a normal day.

[runner]

the scotch comment made me

 

i can now hear the sound of a thousand metro PUA type guys ordering a scotch at the new hipster club (and pretending to enjoy it)

[tigressA]

:lmao:

I remember reading that article and I didn't like it very much.

Have become a total drink snob over the years, and will hold forth as so many people need some edifying in this regard. Not talking wine, just booze drunk out at night in public.

 

There are only a few things that can go into a cocktail out at night without making you look like a goober to cultured people, male or female:

 

1. Liquor that is either brown or colorless, not green, cream colored, orange, black, or any other color... brown or colorless. And said liquor shall not be of any other flavor than -liquor- flavored, not orange, peach, mint, raspberry, kumquat, banana, pepper, melon, licorice, etc... liquor flavored.

 

2. Water, either in liquid form or frozen into ice cubes (which may be crushed). Water is optional, and drinks with no water at all rule the roost of coolness.

 

3. A mixer, which shall either be club soda or tonic water... NOTHING else (sorry, soft drinks and fruit juices, you don't make the cut at night, tomorrow at brunch, maybe). Like water, the mixer is optional and drinks with neither water nor mixer (they are called "neat") rule the roost of coolness.

 

4. A single olive, lemon or lime wedge consisting of at least one sixth of the whole fruit. Most puny "cheap bar" lime and lemon wedges get disqualified here. No other vegetative matter allowed during the evening, but you may use a cocktail onion instead of an olive behind closed doors if you must. NEVER a cherry. The less vegetable matter in your cocktail the cooler you are, none is coolest. Fruit must be completely fresh, no brown spots allowed or you lose all cool and may as well do kegstands.

 

5. If you drink your brown or clear liquor "neat," you may also have another glass of water or mixer, but only if you are sitting at the bar, you may not walk around with this. You may order this as "Maker's Mark neat, water back" for example, or "Absolut neat, soda on the rocks back." Ordering something "back" diminishes cool slightly, but not so much as to void it from what is permitted while remaining cool.

 

6. Shots are not allowed. Sorry.

 

7. Beer is not allowed. Sorry.

 

8. Body shots, test tubes, jello cubes, etc.... you already know the answer.

 

Your welcome. Carry on.

[MrNate]

I guess I don't say it enough.

 

 

 

Panties.

 

 

 

Are the women here yet?

[Woggle]

It's a shame when you find out that a really hot woman is a male basher.

[carhill]

Makes me glad to know some exceptions to those assertions. Somehow, I doubt she wrote the 'letter', but did take some nice photographs.

Clarifications and translations:-

 

We love your body.

As long as your potbelly is the same as Brad Pitt's

 

Speaking of your body, you don't understand the power of your own smell. Any woman who is currently with a man is with him partly because she loves the way he smells.

That is on the outside, the outside, not the inside!

 

 

We remember forever what you say about the bodies of other women.

 

But cannot retain information relating to the workings of the internal combustion engine.

 

We will file the comment under "Women He Finds Attractive."

 

This file's full path name is c:\\Things_I_Can_Be Annoyed_About_In_The_Future\Women_He_Finds_Attractive\Skanky_Byotches

 

It's not about whether or not we approve of the comment.

 

Because we DON'T

 

We also remember everything you say about our bodies

 

This line is supposed to have the music to Darth Vaders March in Star Wars playing behind it.

 

Those things you say are stored away in the steel box

 

Iron maiden.

 

We remember what you were wearing and the street corner you were standing on when you said it.

 

For targetting purposes.

 

 

Never complain about

 

anything, at all, ever, never, ever, ever.

 

Remember what we like

 

Clowns, apparently.

 

We want you to order Scotch.

 

For me, I want to get drunk and fight that byotch you said was attractive.

 

Stand up, open a door,

 

and leave, how dare you say my friend is a Scotch soaked whore? You come on a date in long baggy shorts and a TANK TOP! And who have you been talking to on Facebook? (A clown wig would have made the ensemble work presumably)

 

You don't know this, but when we come back from a date, we feel awkward about that transition from our cute outfit into sexy lingerie

 

After drinking all that Scothchshsh and fighting that worman you were eyeing up my sushpender belt has shnapped and I'm too drunk to fixsh it.....

 

Panties is a wonderful word

 

Where did my pantiesh go?

 

There are better words than beautiful. Radiant, for instance

 

eg You are radiant tonight, radiating fumes like a rusty old still in a broken down hillside mash house.

 

Marriage changes very little

 

and don't you forget it bub. Where's my Scotch?

Well so what, I wasn't going to look at all until you mentioned that she had boobs to stare at.

ceremony, of course

[callingyouuu]

I don't know, I don't think it's so bad. I don't think the editors actually meant the article to be indicative of the opinion from every female. They're just giving general life/relationship advice to men in a way that they'll understand.

 

1. Don't be so insecure.

2,3. Your words have a bigger impact on your girl than you think.

4. Girls vent a lot. Supporting her = good. Adding to her complaints = tacky.

5. Be observant; it's romantic.

...etc.

 

Outside of the scotch comment, which I think is kind of stupid, it's pretty good general advice. Maybe you can disregard the tank top one, too, if you're into the whole rugged look, which some people find attractive.

[BS76]

Sigh. Typical junk. This is why men shouldn't take dating/relationship advice from women.
