Young men...go south And leave Yankee crap at home....we will embrace you

You must mean South of the border or as in South America?

Some of the Southern states have the worst divorce rates in the nation, and that is what men should be avoiding.

I believe your point of view is typical for men. I hope you’re up front with women these days.

Not long ago, a man who behaved like the perfect gentleman asked me out. I was not interested at first, but he came across as a nice guy. He called constantly, and he led me to believe that he was a trusted friend and a serious man. Then, one day, he admitted what he really was after... The most insulting part was when he told me he doesn’t want to have to “go to a prostitute.” :-0 Needless to say, I told him I did not want to talk with him again. Later, he acted as if I misunderstood what he was saying in that last conversation, but I understood perfectly. (lol)

This is why nice women sometimes don’t want to date. Men who are looking for one thing should do us a favor and leave us alone.

Well, I had to do something to overcome my delicate good looks and sensitive manner, to impress girls, deciding between a better cologne, or spending a couple of grand on a jack hammer and accessories, I figured the jackhammer would send a stronger message.

Yeah, women often wish their husbands would screw prostitutes.

“Human relationships and interactions are complex, not simple...which means the shortest distance between two points is not a straight line.

IOW...giving them what they say they want is not a way to build a relationship.”

And with that, Gogeo, I believe you are the thread winner. I ma a logical person. Point A to Point B represents the logical resolution to any problem When that equation gets infected with emotion, well, it’s no longer equatable.

Screw me. I need to spend the money on hookers and strippers. And the rest of it on firearms and ammo.

I can’t help but notice in many of your posts, that you seem to think men are just icky and repulsive, even disease ridden.

Perhaps in your universe, STDs do not exist, but I don't take needless chances with my long term well-being. Where did I say men were icky and repulsive? Do you have a problem with women? Do you have problem with projection?

It is good to learn that you are comfortable carrying 100 pound bags of cracked corn and soy bean meal.

I didn't say that, either. The task was left to me. It was not easy.

There are a lot of men and women in this world of such nature and character that I don't want them around me. As a straight woman, I specifically do not want lousy men around in my personal life. Perhaps you don't care what kind of company you keep, but I have standards.

In just about every one of your posts, you have described men in ways that sound like you see them is icky, repulsive, or diseased in some way, embarrassing in public “I never have to share the embarrassment of someone else’s poor manners in public”, as not worthy to be around, because “the chance of them trashing my personal life is not one I am willing to take”.

“I prefer my own company. There is no risk of acquiring some vile disease”
“Men are fine, just not in my personal life.”
“And yes, there are men with STDs. I don’t need that. Does anyone?”
“Perhaps in your universe, STDs do not exist, but I don’t take needless chances with my long term well-being.”

Your personal life is “with no crazy mood swings (because my life isn’t fraught with nuttiness in my personal zone)”
“I’m just not looking to introduce craziness into my personal life.”
“As a straight woman, I specifically do not want lousy men around in my personal life. Perhaps you don’t care what kind of company you keep, but I have standards.”

((Standards in your case means no men.))

“Maybe other women wouldn’t mind such things as a disinclination to bathe regularly, or not knowing basic table manners, or not getting Mystery Science Theatre jokes (it gets tiresome explaining 70 % of them)”

((you do seem fairly comfortable hauling 100 pounds bags))
“or their sitting at the table sipping coffee while I unloaded 100 pound sacks from the car, but my patience was not infinite.”

If you said all that dear then how can you deny it?

If a man here said such about wimmins... the female wolf pack would be on his butt...and with reason

I find women wonderful but frustrating

But never vile or disease ridden or icky

In fact...cooties are my friend

The forum has a lot of lonely resentful folks....I hope someone falls in your lap and changes your perspective

We all need someone ...

I don’t mind that you have man issues..I detest all that labeling crap

Misogynist and all that PC terminology

Hell...I love women but even great ones can irritate like a bad toothache

Such is life

Sex makes girls worth it....I think God knew that.

Actually, I live in Texas.

I would recommend any man looking for a wife to expatriate.

I don’t.

Southern women...are fine....worlds best

I’ve had plenty Texas women....no complaints.....Abilene.....Beaumont....Park Cities.....Lufkin.....Dripping Springs.....Lumberton....Corpus.....God bless Texas women

Was married to a Brazilian.... beaut but crazy

I prefer my own culture

BTW...you said you live in Texas....not that you are Texan

Telling.

Texans...God love em...are like marines about that.

I frankly am at a loss for words for a man who disparages the virtue of southern girls

You may need a metaphorical exorcism Clayton

Might I suggest the bars along lower McKinney on Friday nite...bring yer wallet...its a cornucopia of great Texican DNA

Not at all, but as my one sentence first post to you, #149 showed, you are clearly obsessed.

Sounds like a potential money making web dating service
BUNDLING.COM
After spending a night talking to someone in bed without sex being an issue, a potential couple could really get a feel for compatibility

Half a sandwich LOL

I agree but unfortunately our society isn't set up that way. We have brutal, winner take all society, even in men - women relationships...

I feel sorry for young men. Today’s “womyn” want to be treated like men, and then get offended when they’re not treated like women.

I feel sorry also for the few remaining women who know they’re women and want to be treated accordingly. They’re also abused by the “womyn.”

The ones that wasted their 20s dating the "bad boys."

Some maybe, but I think at least several of them were "feminists" because no man showed any interest in them.
