Rampant issues with feminism....

LKL:

That may very well be, but that does not keep abc from being important.

Come to think of it, I've heard many women claim the same thing, society molding them to be smiling, self-effacing angels who're always there for their man...or am I wrong?

^^^^^"Stand by your man syndrome".I always hated that song.

This doesn't seem like typical, generic advice. It sounds more like it might be aimed specifically at you. Is there some reason for your female friends to be concerned that you're going to hurt someone? And what do they mean by "hurt"? There's a big difference between saying something thoughtless and punching someone in the face, for example, but both cause "hurt".

The " 'nice guys' aren't as nice as they think they are" part of this already got discussed so nevermind that. But I think there is a lot of truth to the "'bad' guys aren't as bad as you think they are" part too. I have seen (ok, read) many shy and introverted men equating shyness and introversion with 'nice' and also equating raucous extroversion as 'jerk' or 'bad boy'. Then when the women go for the loud extrovert man, they say "women claim to like nice guys but only date the jerks". In reality, many of those loud and raucous extroverts are nice. Being an introvert is not inherently nicer than being an extrovert. So when women wind up with them, they have in fact gone for the nice guy, he just is a loud nice guy.

That sums it up nicely.

Being a loud alpha-jock is not the same thing as being a "bad boy," and being quiet and shy does in no way equate to being "nice.

Several of my male acquaintances and fellow gym-rats are loud alpha-jocks who happen to treat their wives/girlfriends like gold.

Most men aren't even millionaires, let alone billionaires.



Women do spend huge sums of money on cosmetics, makeup, breast-augmentation surgery, cosmetic surgery, hair styles, hair colours, nails, dresses, accessories, shoes, etc. etc. Some women spend hours preening themselves in the mirror. Many even remove the hair on their legs, armpits, and other bodiy areas. What is the point of all that? Is part of the reason to make themselves attractive to men?



That's what women are for.


They're called sybians.


Don't hold your breath.

They're called sybians.

Well that's a fancy word for a dildo.
I thought you meant something like Commander Data and I was going to make a joke about where to get one,thank goodness I looked that word up.I can only imagine the photos you would post of "sybians".

You sound like you're as down on men as radical feminists are.

I just strive to be somewhat realistic.

I hope they used Lysol if other people sat on that sybian thing,that motor noise would really get on my nerves.
I guess it explains the attraction some women have for guys on Harleys,they say they vibrate but I don't like motorcycles either.

Some of those extroverted men actually are *nice*, but for every nice one there are plenty who Aint. LIKE I SAID: What makes those guys attractive to women is not their dominant, pushy, dont-give-a-f*ck (and sometimes chauvinistic)attitude towards women, it is their social savoir faire and their street smarts which make people look up to them and give them a lot of status. Having bulging biceps and washboard abs on top of it certainly doesn't hurt.

If you lack these traits and you're introverted and socially inept, most women are going to be turned off to you unless you can figure out a way to make up for it that garners status. One of the best ways to do this, if you're lucky enough to be born with the talent, is ARTISTIC EXPRESSION. That's right, if you make art, particularly Music, you can vastly improve your sex appeal to women no matter how bad your social skills may be. Humans are one of many different animals that use art, be it auditory(as is "mating calls" and "songs"), visual(like the Bowerbird which builds a snazzy nest to impress the female), or physical(like most birds and many mammals which do a mating dance and the male with the smoothest moves gets to mate). In the words of a iFriend of mine, "not gonna lie-guitar players make the panties drop".

No, "women" do not do that. Some women do that; sometimes it is because they, like a professional football player, won the genetic lottery for the physical attributes considered 'ideal' for their sex, and they can hit the financial jackpot by capitalizing on that; some, because they've internalized the idea that looks are the only way a woman can achieve social status (similar to a male gym rat).

Most aspie women, like aspie men, care less about clothes and makeup and more about study.

No. That's what brainless bodies are for. That's my point.

Thankfully, I know enough men IRL (and have even overheard a few of them saying rather humane things to each other when they didn't know that they were being overheard) to know that most of them are not like you. If I thought that most men were like you, I'd be one of the separatist feminists that AspieRogue rails against.

Well, I can't lie: really good male dancers - breakdancing, dancing in sequence - definitely turn my head. It's too bad that most male dancers these days seem to be gay. Oddly enough, the 'Chippendale' guys don't do a thing for me; it's too much 'display' and not enough 'art,' I guess.

Wrt. singing, at least with birds, a lot of male song is actually the establishment of an auditory boundry with other males.

So is the man who does not get married the bad man?

No. Marriage is not required to be a good person.
