How many times do I have to try to convince you of this, before I can have you, Minxy? I'm BISEXUAL! Some people never learn.

 

[MissTaken]

Geesh! Minx!


When you put it in that perspective,

what is left for us?

Who understands men?

Those women with the patience to get to know them as individuals.

Thanks, I'm really depressed now but you also forgot to add:

The men who think we are beautiful, that are heterosexual,somewhat nice and have money don't like us if they think we are smarter than them.

 

[estevie]

I understand my man! good enough for me!

Believe me, STG- I try, and continue to try to get to know individual men, with little luck. When I DO get to know them, something about them totally turns me off...


Ayaka, another good one! Let's add that to the list.

I like that answer

But in my experience the more you get to know them as individuals the more confusing they appear to be!

Bah, not all of us, intelligence is a Very important and Good quality in a woman.

 

[Ayaka]

In theory that's correct but sometimes with some men it isn't the case.

Just because a person is smart in one aspect, doesn't mean it's applies to everything.

 

[Rubyfruit]

Men are like a fine wine.
They all start out like grapes, and it's our job to stomp on them and keep them in the dark until they mature into something you'd like to have dinner with.

Which is sometime around age 50.

That's even more depressing.

Some men I guess *shrugs*

Heh.. actually.. I've never been in a romantic situation with a woman smarter than I was.. But then.. I live in an area overrun with rednecks and general stupid people, and I've never met a woman noticebly smarter than I was..

But, the woman who I've had the strongest feelings for and been most attracted to ever has the exact same IQ as I do... so *shrugs* Happy middle I guess?

Never lost interest.

If I've been at all interested in someone I haven't lost interest when they made the first move. Most of the time the 'first move' was mutual and on one occasion actually discussed beforehand. One time though, a woman clearly made the first move. I was in college and there was this girl I'd been hanging around with in classes, meals and parties for about a month, and she called me up shortly after lunch one day and said,
"Could you come over here now?" It sounded pretty urgent so I said, "Sure" and headed over. When I knocked at the door she was there and opening it quickly, and without a word or greeting grabbed me by the hand, pulled me into the room, pushed me up against the wall and started kissing me. I could describe myself as flustered, surprised and even disconcerted, but I was not at all unhappy and I was put off by her aggression not at all. (That's not *exactly* true, as there were ways it made me uncomfortable, but there were other, more important ways that I really liked it). Nothing much more happened that day but we were together for two years. We gave each other a month to get to know each other better before we had sex. She is now a lesbian living in San Francisco.

Wasn't that a nice story? It seems like enough information that a good psychiatrist could probably psychoanalyze me completely. lol


By the way, I would love to find a woman smarter than me. That would be so fucking hot!

As it turns out, the least intelligent women I've been in relationships with have been the ones who understood that I thought of us as equals. The most intelligent women I have been with always felt like they had to earn my respect, even though they already had it. Maybe it's silly, but I still look for the smart ones.

Hmm Now that is an interesting point.

Just like women, men are NOT all the same and can't be understood as a group. I have enough work trying to figure out one husband and two sons...I haven't got any more energy for any more men!

Damn! Two years and 7 months to go!

Seriously, if a woman feels she needs to "stomp" on me to change me into comething acceptable to her, then keep on walking by my door; I do not need anybody coming into my life and thinking they are going to change me in any way except minor little things.

 

[Shy Tall Guy]

Malachi brings up a very good point that is quite an astute observation. I wonder what makes more intelligent women more needing of acceptance by men once in a relationship.

Maybe the intelligent women you have been with are simply pessimists or cynical. Intelligence does breed cynicism and cynicism breeds a lack of contentment or feeling as if contentment cannot be attained.

Another factor could be that society as a whole, is not very accepting of intelligent women, and this is especially true of men. This is changing for the better, but many intelligent women have probably had to prove themselves many times, and this may carry over into a relationship.

I value intelligence, but I value wisdom a lot more, and while these personality aspects often can be found in the same person, you don't have to have high intelligence to be wise, and if you are intelligent you can be unwise - so give me a woman who is wise any day, but intelligent would be nice too.

9. The men who think we are beautiful, that are heterosexual,somewhat nice and have money, are cowards.

MS.



However, and almost unbelievably, last night i met a handsome, nice, straight, single, solvent, outgoing, intelligent Dominant who not only thought me very attractive and told me so, but asked for a hug at the end of our time of talking and then offered me the choice of a kiss if i would ask for one.

Oh yeh. He's a good kisser, too.

 

[lilminx]

Cym- I'm so happy for you. That's great that you're going out and meeting people again. I just find that almost any man I go on a date with, I have no desire for a second date with, and the one man I really wanted was unattainable to me.

> 4. The handsome, nice and heterosexual men are married.

Women look in lot's of the wrong places to catch this one before he get's married.Think back when you was in high school,who was the best prospect to become this man.They aren't alway's
handsome,nice,possibly even heterosexual.You find a man you can work with,and help mold him into this husband you want.
Then you get married.
Simple!
