Cracker Jack Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 I don't have any complaints about the other gender. I prefer to view people as individuals. Best post in the topic.
hikaru Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 Thank you... and I anticipate that you will have a much easier time finding compatible people (for both love and friendship) in the future because you have identified the qualities that made them unacceptable to you... rather than whitewash an entire gender. I really hope you're right! Wish it was acceptable to have people read a disclaimer before you start seeing them.
Negative Nancy Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 - men only want young women - men only use and want women first and foremost for t & a - men are shallow - men are so desperate for sex that they would risk everything in life just for a couple mins of ffffing - men never appreciate what they have and will even in a long-term, good relationship turn their heads for other women and look at porn, thus making the woman by his side feel less desirable - men leave their wives that stuck with them for 20 years, gave them kids, made him a nice cozy home so he could work on his career for the young secretary - 99 % of men would cheat if it's with an attractive women and if there was a 100 % guarantee that no one ever found out - men can't live in peace, there's always a war going on somewhere in the world started by a stupid male moron, be it for money, power, fame, ressources or women - men are always overgrown children, when observing men in an all-male profession, you feel like you're watching kids in play school did i forget anything?
cerridwen Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 There's so many of them. And so little time.
ptp Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 There's so many of them. And so little time. lol...I hope spending all that time in the man cave isn't giving you a bad impression.
cerridwen Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 lol...I hope spending all that time in the man cave isn't giving you a bad impression. *sigh* The man cave's sadly empty these days isn't it, PTP? It's usually just me sitting in alphamale's recliner eating pork rinds.
Feelin Frisky Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 If I had to pick something it would be that I don't understand why women are often so intelligent and responsible but at the same time incredibly ignorant (wish there were a better word). I don't go out of my way to learn everything there is to learn in the way of common knowledge and what goes on in the world and who is whom, but I constantly find myself alone in knowledge of names, events, meanings etc etc. It doesn't piss me off, I just don't really get that women's interest can be so different. I don't believe myself to be so freaking brilliant or "with it" that I'm a trivia engine but, holy smokes, I'm gob-smacked by how little females I know (with few exceptions) know. Doesn't mean I don't love 'em though.
grkBoy Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 I dunno. I think with the feminism debate there's several types of feminists: a) Those who simply believe they want more in life than just being a housewife, but have a respect for men who respect them. b) Man-hating women who simply blame men for everything bad in their lives, even their own bad decisions. They see men as the enemy and thus feel men should apologize to them for any feelings of oppression. c) Women who simply feel that power comes from being able to manipulate or control men. So they feel if they are hot looking and men want them, they can have anything they want in this world. Thus they feel men should worship them simply because of how many who desire them. I keep it simple. I date the (a) women, and not bother with the (b) or © women. This is what any guy should think in terms of. If you meet a woman or women who have an attitude you don't like...don't date them. It's not that hard. The trick though is you need to be able to be happy alone...so if you find ALL the single women in your neck of the woods are man-haters or lipstick feminists, then you choose to be alone until you find Ms. Right. Some of you might want a submissive classic woman. No problem. Go for it...just bear in mind that her "traditionalism" thinking might also include YOU financially supporting her in life, like men did in the past.

Imajerk17 Posted November 14, 2011 Posted November 14, 2011 (edited) My list... full of shameless and sometimes inaccurate over generalizations. So if you are female and you find yourself offended, don't worry, I didn't mean you! LOL (1) Their crazy screening mechanisms. Women, many of them anyway, have for their potential partner a list that's a thousand items long, and yet they will throw away that entire list for some dirtbag who doesn't meet any of the items on that list, if "The Chemistry" is right. (2) The way they don't take responsibility, especially in their communications. They drop hints and think they are expressing themselves clearly when in fact they are not. It also seems to be a very feminine thing to say that "it just happened", especially when cheating is involved. (3) Their sense of entitlement when it comes to their dealings with men. They expect men to put themselves out there and deal with rejection, and yet they feel that they shouldn't have to deal with this themselves. A recent quote on the forum: "That's why I'll never ask a guy out, I'll never know if he is with me because he really likes me" ... (Huh?? We guys ask you out all the time.) Also, many of you expect men to plan and pay for the first date, but then if you decided you aren't interested, many of you don't even bother giving the guy the courtesy of a response back. Look, I know it is uncomfortable of you to make that phone call or send that text, but if the guy put in the effort, it is on you to do so. (4) Their sense of anger towards any guy who points the above out. Instead of just disagreeing with the guy who expresses something like what I wrote, many women will instead also make some ad hominem attacks on the guy. I can already see the responses now: "You must hate women" or even the meaner ones "That's why you're so bitter. Women don't find you attractive". If you are going to write that to me, save your time! I already said that when I was writing this post, I didn't mean you. Edited November 14, 2011 by Imajerk17

I imagine that's one of the hardest things about dating for a male--facing rejection but having to risk it nonetheless if they hope to date. It takes a thickening of the skin for sure. I don't envy you.
El Brujo Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 1. Hypocritical irony Women say they want to have all this equality with men (some of them sound like they just want to dance but not pay the piper), yet most women STILL won't make the first move, because they don't want to face rejection. As far as some women care, getting rejected is still a man's job. So much for equality. 2. Saying one thing when they mean another 3. Dropping hints Most of us men are not Sherlock Holmes. Sometimes you have to cluebat us fairly hard. 4. Schadenfreude Women are expected to have a bit of mean-spiritedness, or else they're not real women. OTOH if a man exhibits schadenfreude, people think he's an evil b*****d.
KathyM Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 * Too many men out there willing to throw away their marriage, their family, their reputation, their career, for a short little roll in the sack with some floosy. * Too many men out there ready to behave like old fools trying to chase after 20 somethings to recapture their lost youth. They don't have a clue how rediculous they look, and they don't seem to mind that the young woman is only after their money. * Too many men out there taking their wife for granted until they lose her. * Too many husbands out there thinking they can treat their wives like crap, but she should always be ready, willing and able to jump into the sack regardless.

I don't want to incite another gender riot here, but that is dead on... And you know the ironic thing about this? Women who have the cojones (figuratively, because there are some who have them LITERALLY) would be shocked at what their success ratio would be. I have seen average to decent looking women go up to really good looking guys I have known (thinking mostly of coworkers) and score those guys most of the time. A few have turned into relationships. The guys liked their confident, brash, trashy attitude.
chrissylee Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Men are shallow Men think big boobs are better than small ones
betterdeal Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 There seems to be a common theme in a lot of women in that they have an absolute inability to appreciate most men do not want to raise another man's child without consent. I believe that's why men generally do not care about a women having emotional bonds with other men so long as it doesn't get physical, and vice versa, women are more likely to not care about a man having sex outside the partnership so long as they don't care about the other woman.

The guys liked their confident, brash, trashy attitude. Uncanny. All the women I know who are happily married or in solid LTRs are the ones who made the first move and picked their man. OTOH the wallflowers just keep getting hit on by guys who are jerks. Go figure. This isn't the 1950s.
El Brujo Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Men are shallow Men think big boobs are better than small ones Those of us who have low IQs think so, anyway.
betterdeal Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Men are shallow Men think big boobs are better than small ones More than a mouthful is a waste
monkey00 Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Here's another one: Going on dates with a woman and paying for it. Then never hearing back from her again. The worst part is during the date she knows she won't see you again, but lets you pay for everything.
oaks Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 More than a mouthful is a waste Handful, surely? And if they're too big she'll be complaining about back ache, which just isn't sexy.
monkey00 Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 I hate it when women **** test you, even when you make it completely clear that you are not interested in them sexually (even though we are both straight). And they absolutely not say what it's on their mind unless they think you are gay, because deep down they think that even though you are just platonic friend ... the fact that you are straight means you are a possible mate and she doesn't want to lose her chances on you. Makes understanding them a bitch, as you have no 'neutral' to compare reactions of women you are really interested in. I hate tests too. I especially hate it when SO's do this just because something doesn't go their way or they have failed expectations. Then do something foolish to see if you still care or what you're willing to do to make them happy again.
betterdeal Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Handful, surely? Have you seen how big my mouth is? And if they're too big she'll be complaining about back ache, which just isn't sexy. I'm not a fan of big uns and I know a lot of men who aren't either.
oaks Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 I'm not a fan of big uns and I know a lot of men who aren't either. Me neither. Moderation in all things. Well, in this thing anyway.
betterdeal Posted November 15, 2011 Posted November 15, 2011 Me neither. Moderation in all things. Well, in this thing anyway. Get in the way of hugs, for one thing. Mmmmmmmm, bamjammers.
