Victimorthecrime Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Just wondering what thoughts anyone may have if they care to share. I think there is truth to it and maybe some lessons for the guys on how to ratchet up the sex appeal. http://elitedaily.com/dating/guys-who-think-theyre-the-sht/1343953/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Resolute Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 that article was depressing on so many levels . nothing we don't already know, but a painful reminder, nonetheless. Terrorised 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IrmaJean Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 Meh. I like quiet confidence. Cockiness is a turn off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Terrorised Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 The article lost me at "Your line of sight goes right over the shy guy standing with a few of his bros lingering by the wall," because if I did hit the club, I would be the shy guy wondering where that guy got the courage to just walk up to that girl and start a convo from. Also, what is it he said to her that's so funny? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. I read the article again and it doesn't have anything to say about a mans mind. Just looks. Hot looks, and nothing but hot looks.

IrmaJean Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 The entire article and its tone put me off. Have any of you who are seeking a relationship considered becoming friends with women first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victimorthecrime Posted March 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 What appealed to me about the article was it's honesty. I would rather have the straight facts than another fluff piece about how a sense of humor matters. Remember the article is just talking about strictly sexual relationship and is not a reflection on long term relationships. The value I (and maybe just me lol) got was that guys should not be afraid to let that side of themselves show a little bit more. Describing "that side" is the hard part. Words that come to mind: masculine, strong, competent, straightforward, grounded, worldly, untroubled. I get it that for some this might be a case of "yawn, what else is new" but for those of us raised under the "be good, be nice, be selfless, always think always of others" mantra this message resonates.

IrmaJean Posted March 8, 2016 Report Share Posted March 8, 2016 (edited) I disagree with that, but that's okay. We can agree to disagree. Could it be possible that some who don't want a relationship are afraid of intimacy and emotional vulnerability? I'm not suggesting that applies to anyone here. Everyone has different needs and I respect that. I know what bothered me about the article now that I have thought about it. She speaks about men as if they are objects rather than human beings.

No. While you're busy being a friend and caring about her well being during the day, she's out getting banged by Mr Alpha during the night. Possibly all night. Once all the Alphas are done with her and she realises that she isn't getting any younger, only then will you be considered a potential partner.

Just my 2 cents: I think the older you get the more this becomes possible. I can't see it working for too many folks in their 20s. Pride and passion are just too off the charts during that era.

Yeah, Roissey coined it the "cock carousel". It hasn't helped relations between the sexes. Neither has this thing nowadays where guys often get referred to as "creepy" and "stalker" just for asking a girl out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infrared_radiation Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 Have got to agree with Irma in this thread more than anyone else who has posted here.

infrared_radiation Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 My views are perfectly reasonable. Women are not as bad as people here make them out to be, I've dated quite a lot of women and had sex with some. Apart from that, sometimes I just had fun with them and enjoyed their company. Some I dated and never had sex with but still enjoyed the time I spent with them anyway. But never had anything that has really lasted though. Sex is not the be all and end all, at the end of the day an orgasm is only an orgasm and you can give yourself an orgasm if you want.

Resolute Posted March 20, 2016 Report Share Posted March 20, 2016 some of your racial views are hardly reasonable. as to the topic at hand, i doubt that any of us are saying that women are bad per se. i disagree that "an orgasm is only an orgasm". all orgasms are not created equally. furthermore, the issue isn't strictly orgasms, but what mostly attracts women to men. needless to say, certain physical attributes in men account for about 90% of what sexually attracts women to men.
