You have to consider the source. Regis Giles is one of the daughters of columnist Doug Giles. You’ve probably read his stuff here on FR from time to time. He is one of the ‘good guys’. 99% of the time (IMO), he is dead on target for conservative and/or Christian viewpoints. He has said in his columns that he raised his daughters to demand respect from the young men in their lives because that is what HE demands from them. Not only that, he has raised them (according to him) to be the kind of young women you WOULD respect.
Oh please. Females full of self need not apply.
Katniss Everdeen's temperament was probably choleric. A girl with a different temperament might be attracted to a different type of man than mentioned in the article.
You forgot to add the bastard children.
Women want a guy who can make them laugh and shiver when kissed on the neck. Everything else is gravy.
Something always bugs me when a woman says “respect she deserves” or “respect I deserve.” Simply being a woman does not deserve respect. As with all people it is earned.
Wow—I guess hell hath no fury like a male Freeper scorned!
As are the men. I CANNOT tolerate these new "metro sexual men". You are MEN, act like one. We are girls....WE are the "pretty" ones, NOT you!
I am turning 43 this year and took myself out of the dating game about 4 years ago. I am DONE. I'M the supposed freak because I won't sleep with you on the 1st or 2nd date? I'M the freak because I think you're more girly than I?
I must say, I am a happier gal now since I have taken such drastic action......and I'm "clean" and know it.
Oh, and to all you fellas out there.....LOSE THE SKINNY JEANS!
Later
Don’t get me wrong, I gave up on those types at an early age. Of course, I had to look overseas.
I like men with long hair. It’s very 13th century.
Yes there seems to be some subliminal messaging going on here:
"Ive decided to throw these guys a bone, and any others who need help"
Men want physically attractive women.
Women want men with a substantial financial larder and security.
Both are equally shallow but it always has been and ever shall be.
Wow—I guess hell hath no fury like a male Freeper scorned!
backfired only because of elaine and jerry. “i’ve got hand”
I agree on the proclivities, but think women being drawn to good providers to help raise their familiea is actually the less shallow.
Your probably right.
Yep, even if true it’s not something to put into a column.
It’s not shallow. It’s how life has been, to genetically eliminate the undesirables. Too bad government welfare interference gums up the gene pool, but left to its devices, nature has a way of restoring balance eventually.
Those who consider the above to be unreal are merely in denial of life and natural selection, even among us human - we still share the biology of animals.
