Women are crazy

[Weevil]

Why is it that women, well mine anyway, want to push their idea of what an attractive woman is on you, with little or no regard for what you actually think constitutes an attractive woman?

Especially being as they should have some respect for who you find attractive being as you found their ass attractive?

Jeez.

I'm in the doghouse again, if you couldn't tell.

 

[Weevil]

Still better than the alternative though.

[Weevil]

You made a stupid comment watching TV didn't you?

Yeah.

 

[lavender]

 

[Juspar Emvan]

The alternative being what I have? No partner?

I know your issue though bro, still rather be in your shoes . . . I think.

IMO--- it may be because there is a preconcieved notion of what beauty is. Look at the media... Look at TV... Pick up a magazine...its hard not to start to think that this is the only way someone can be beautiful (for me anyway)....

Hope you get out of the doghouse soon!

 

[Juspar Emvan]

You made a stupid comment watching TV didn't you?

Yeah.

LMAO, how the fuck did you guess that Lavy? Damn women.

 

[Weevil]

Would you like to share?

Not really. It's a longer story than that though. She is in the process of trying to fix every single one of her friends up with my friends, she didn't like some of my comments about her friends. She thought I was crazy and stupid. Then I made some off handed lewd comment while watching MuchMusic about Shakira or J-Lo I can't remember. That confirmed it for her.

It doesn't matter.

You mean my size 16 shoes?

(I'm mentioning that once a day from now on)

The alternative being a Friend of Dorothy.

And I've dealt with way too many men in their 20s.

Haven't we all?

 

[Ice Cold]

I go bye a simple rule of thumb... stay quiet and don't comment to much... keeps me out of trouble most times... except for the direct question of "Do you think she's cute"

Always the death knell... nothing good ever comes from it.

That's essentially what she asked me about her friend. I replied honestly(Which I maintain was a good idea)

Oh well.

I can probably just smooth this over with a Matt Damon movie and the words "Oh. Yeah. Right. Sorry"

Sheesh.

 

[Svedish_Chef]

She's ugly isnt she.

Oh and get Rounders or dogma... they aren't bad.

you (and men everywhere) should know better than to answer that type of question.

It's a given that if some man says... "Oh, so-and-so is hot!" they will immediately begin to tally up how they compare and/or fall short of said woman. If they do not in anyway compare, then the woman's insecurities will surface and multiply until finally... you are forced into some huge romantic display to tamp down her feelings of inadequacy.

If you think men are any different, you're dead wrong.

 

[Laurel]

She's ugly isnt she.

What's wrong with ugly girls? We make the rest of you chicks look good.

 

[sigh]

I replied honestly

weevil...when commenting on the appearance of other girls to your girlfriend, honesty isn't necessarily a great idea

because we ARE crazy

but you seem crazy about her, so i'll bet it'll all come out fine in the end...good luck

 

[Svedish_Chef]

Hey.. I'm not a chick

I mean I donlt look good
I mean... ah hell

 

[Laurel]

I was yolking. A funny. Yeesh...tough thread!

 

[LukkyKnight]

Nah, not so tough a thread:
Women are so superior to the alternative it's not worth digging your hole deeper by opening up a thread like this - word gets back on the old girl network and the next thing you know you're dating the guy who works at the convenience store.

It's simple, really.
Honesty is the best policy. When it seems to not work it's illuminating something that desperately needs discussing.

 

[hatara]

Ah how many men over time have gotten into trouble with this one. LOL

Fortunately I got over my insecurities about my appearance that if someone I am seeing says they like the looks of someone else it doesn't bother me.

However I find that the best policy is not to ask them what they think of someone else's looks!!

 

[Mischka]

I am absolutely not understanding the "female" perspective here. If a man finds a woman attractive enough to date/marry her, why would she be upset if he thinks another woman is attractive? Why does that have to do to his attraction to her? Are people only supposed to find one type of person attractive?

And conversely, if a person asks a yes/no question, on what grounds can that person be upset with the response?

 

[Weevil]

She's ugly isnt she.

Oh and get Rounders or dogma... they aren't bad.

I would but she won't let me watch any more Kevin Smith. And she considers Rounders a sports movie.

But just so there's no confusion, here's what happened. She was trying to fix up her Friend(person A) with my friend(person B) she mentioned this to me and asked me a couple of questions while I was trying to fix my lawn mower

"Don't you think person A is cute? Don't you think person B would?"

my answer was as truthful as could be

"Not really honey. And I can tell you for certain that person B wouldn't."

"You don't think she's cute?"

"No. Not especially."

"Why not?"

"Couldn't tell you. She just doesn't do it for me."

"Because? Is there anything specific?"

"Honey, I'm really trying to fix the mower. Is there anyway I could explain why I don't want to have sex with your best friend a little later?"

So we dropped it. Then as I said I was watching TV made some comment about Shakira's butt.

"You are such a superficial bastard. All you think about is some bullshit hollywood conceptualization of what beauty is."

"Well, that's why I married you, sweetheart"

Then she got ticked.

But it's all better. And we even got to make up last night. Which is why there is such a spring in my step today.

Mischka, this is unbearably reasonable.
