megimeg Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 Hi! What does the phrase mean: "Some girls will always have a thing for the wolf" The ilustrative picture of it is a a girl and a wolf showing his teeth and lookind angry at the girl. Can it be used for someone who is agressive during arguments?
understand50 Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 No, it means some girls always go for the "Bad" boy and wind up hurt. It is a form of self punishment. 2

Well basically what I meant, being hurt in a qay or another. Because I was having a discussion with my friend and she said it means only "loving boys who are wild in the bedroom, it has nothing to do with being hurt"

I usually have heard it more for the "lone wolf" which has more positive connotations or attraction to the strong outsider. As to wild in the bedroom, it isn't just some girls Edited June 3, 2021 by SumGuy

LuckyM Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 Wolf is an old 1960s name for an aggressive man who goes after girls for his own pleasures. Pejorative 1
elaine567 Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 @SumGuy "Lone wolf" now has terrorist connotations. Was he part of a wider network or a cell or was he a lone wolf? Anders Breivik - the lone wolf. 1

SumGuy Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 All this is having me think the expression means different things to different people...so kind of a useless expression unless confusion is ones goal.
elaine567 Posted June 12, 2021 Posted June 12, 2021 He: "On hot summer night, would you offer yout throat to the wolf with the red roses?" She: "Will he offer me his mouth?" He: "Yes." She: "Will he offer me his teeth?" He: "Yes." She: "Will he offer me his jaws?" He: "Yes." She: "Will he offer me his hunger?" He: "Yes." She: "Again, will he offer me his hunger? He: "YES!" She: "And will he starve without me?" He: "YES!" She: "And does he love me?" He: "Yes." She: "Yes..." He: "On a hot summer night, would you offer your throat to the wolf with the red roses?" She: "Yes." He: "I bet you say that to all the boys!"[ The wolf with the red roses. The woman in the tale is willing to give her very self to the wolf with the red roses, only to discover that once done, he won't think much of her and never did - he just wanted what she had to offer.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_wO8toxinoc
