Men are visual,
women are imaginers....

IOW, you like to see the movie,
they'd rather read the book so they can imagine.

If they can ogle while they are with us

If the two of you are together as a couple then he better not ogle. HUGE breech of protocol and incredibly poor manners. Of course most men have incredible perpheral vision for this sort of thing but that just can't be helped.

[John O]

I can agree with that. (From what I've seen so far)

[najida]

Depends on how many margarita's I've had....

I do remember when Jon-Eric Hexum died and I remarked to a boyfriend that he was too gorgeous to bury, they should send him to a taxidermist (I think it was beer I was drinking).

My poor date looked like I had slapped him with a dead fish.

[HairOfTheDog]

Agreed. Congrats on getting yourself in shape... I'm still tryin'.

A good looking butt in a nice pair of Levis turns my head everytime. I don't think that has anything to do with "status".

:-)

I meant the comment about a nice, expensive suit, made earlier.

I have no prob with women ogling men. I actually like it! Pretty much all the guys I know feel this way.

I would have no problem if my wife wanted to go to one of those male strip clubs. I'd even find it somewhat intruiging!

[John O]

got stuck at 13 lbs down for two weeks. Finally figured out I was trying to go too fast. Slacked off a little and the weight loss continued

[CindyDawg]

No offense intended but maybe you should accept your wife the way she is. Trying to change her personality is just going to make you both miserable. IMO, anyway.

[don-o]

If there were rules and she agreed to them she should have tried to get changes but not have broken them.

Evidently there are no rules; just opinions being subjectively applied.

You expect us not to look - but you look?
Well, isn't that special.

[Dashing Dasher]

He was a beauty - wasn't he. Truly a tragedy.

The only pix I could find with his shirt on...

[CindyDawg]

I watched a training session of the Dallas Cowboy cheer leaders. They were looking for sex appeal. These costumes aren't any worse.

[najida]

OK,
I'm going to confess a BIG weakness...
Light eyes (blue or gray) and dark hair....DROOL!

He shoulda been taxidermied.

[Dashing Dasher]

About the taxidermy idea....I'm starting to agree with you.

I have a thing for unusual eyes - blue, green, hazel, yellow/green, grey/blue....

Hair is not important - as long as it's real - no plugs or roadkill for me.

Butts are also important....biceps.... jaw line......

.

[najida]

I hate those outfits....
I mean, the bras have to have hydraulic lifts in them, I've never seen puppies jacked up so high!

[Monterrosa-24]

I agree with you and furthermore I take offense at calling the waitresses at Hooters "skanks". If they are not modest enough that is still not near the sin as is calling them trash.

To me the Hooters girls seem like good patriotic All-American clean types. A bit of under wire support and cleavage showing should not single them out for abuse. Any woman who wears make up is ... walking past where some say the Biblical modesty line is drawn. I don't think the Christian should condone face painting and condemn practical swimwear and a bit of cleavage. In the current world situation I think practical swimwear including bikinis illustrates a tremendous advantage of Christianity over Islam. Pride over wealth, expensive clothing, jewelry, mental quickness and many other boastful sins should weigh as heavily as the pride in the curves that God provided (or even the surgeon provided).

As Rush said, "Beautiful women serving tasty animal flesh....what could be more politically incorrect?" Right-o Rush! Most of the soldier boys here at Fort Benning like Hooters and vice versa and I'm all for em.

[Dominic Harr]

No offense intended but maybe you should accept your wife the way she is.

Oh!

I didn't mean to suggest I try to change her! We've been married 20 years, we just talk about everything. I love her the way she is, and thank GOD she still seems to find me sexy, even tho I've gained 50 pounds since the good ole days!

[John O]

Well, isn't that special.

Perhaps you didn't read what I wrote or we misconnected somehow. Let me try again:

A man on a date (out as a couple) MUST not look as it is horribly rude. That is not to say that he won't see the person in his peripheral vision. He's not required to hide his head under the table just because some sweet young thing walks through the room but he also shouldn't pay any attention to her. Same goes for a woman looking. (Is this any clearer?)

I brought up the peripheral vision in the first place because by design men are incredibly visual. We are hunters and when something which is normally hunted shows up we naturally take notice.

I don't think this will be the last we've heard on this story.

There are still some missing pieces to this puzzle.
