Do single women exist on wrong planet?

Post Reply New Topic

I'd accept that for porn value?

I'm the kind of guy who doesn't mind being "the boss" in the house if that's what a woman needs. And that's how it is in my relationship. But if I'm being honest, a woman who can assert herself, put me "in my place," and take the initiative in a relationship is a huge turn-on for me. I can't help it?I have a thing for older women. And if I see too many older women standing next to big red trucks preferably big red trucks they own and might potentially offer me a ride in, I'm going to have to step into the other room for 5 minutes if you know what I mean.

I have a thing for men who drive older, full-sized beat-up pickup trucks (providing they're not plastered with NRA and/or NASCAR stickers). I don't really care what they look like (the men or the trucks) so long as they are mechanically well-maintained and in good running order.

Well, you must admit, you make a pretty ugly woman.

Well, I can't change my personality, nor do I want to. *I* like my personality, anyway. It's different, and I don't BS people. What you see is what you get, and I'm damned proud.

Pretty ugly? Oh you women and your contradictions.

I just joined a few days ago, but like many others I would imagine there are a fair amount of single girls here. It just probably comes down to the fact that irrespective of the context, girls tend to be shyer and more ?cautious?. Not everyone of course, but on average. Girls are probably less likely to comment on the threads so it can seem like they don?t even exist, even if they are active. Like silverfish, but in a nicer way. Then one day you come upon one (or a lot more) and realize they've been there all along.

Has nothing to do with personality. Some women actually WANT to be single, or they are uncomfortable cultivating relationships with the opposite sex for whatever reason. But more so than just wanting to be single, they want to be left alone about it. "Single" does not mean the same thing as "available."

Smudge, the thing is you're still here. If I or anyone else disagrees with you, you don't automatically treat it as hostility and act ugly towards whoever said what they said. Others will get sick and tired of not getting their way and ultimately leave WP altogether. The seething, man-hater is a rare creature here, and there are only one or two still hanging on. You don't strike me as the sort of person who'd judge me for not accepting the world only as YOU see it. The seething man-haters seem to mostly drift away from WP, and it doesn't have to be that way.

They don't its all a sausage fest here on WP!

^Amusing comparison

Don't wish to perpetuate gender stereotypes, I just can't help but to acknowledge them in this.

One will find plenty of males in certain types of threads, and females in other types of threads.
Of course there are many threads that interest & elicit responses from both genders, but oftentimes we self-select
(women may tend to answer ___ threads and men may be more likely to answer ___ threads).
It's sorta' like the advice given for meeting people offline:
if you're looking for men, go do "stereotypically male" activities (rock climbing, carpentry)
vs. if you're looking for women, go join a knitting or book club.
^I'm not saying these stereotypes are good or bad, right or wrong, just that they exist/are a factor.

I think it's hard to say that either gender is more likely to draw attention to themselves-maybe in different ways ?
In mixed company, who speaks up more ? Does that play out the same online compared with offline ?
I would think that on the one hand, single women want to be noticed-yet on the other hand,
not all attention is wanted, and that sense of potential threat can cause a person to self-censor, hide, avoid drawing attention.
Animals in nature: the male is more often the one making a spectacle of himself, attempting to show off-translate that into behavior of human males.

But yes, I agree that apparent absence (or dearth) of women on here may not be proportionally representative of actual membership.
Don't know that there are any stats (other than voluntarily self-reported ones) as to what % is whichever gender (let alone rel. status) & also active here.

i'm single with female sex organs, but with all the mental/health issues i have i don't think i'm much of a "catch". i do however get catcalled by the possessive objectifying meathead type

Yes, but let's put it this way: unless I could date an Aspie girl who came off as pretty NT, I'm not sure if I could date another Aspie, no less have children with another Aspie. I know that Aspies have kids together (it's not common but it's happened before) but it's a real struggle. Raising children in general is a struggle, but children are a challenge when they are younger.

I would imagine there are single women, but don't want to state it.

From various women I've either played with in an online game, spoken to on a dating site or another forum, they usually get an influx of creepy messages from guys.

If you are a single woman you should send me a message. That should be a rule.

speaking of creepy messages, here comes wowiexist with a helpful example.

Women on this site, yes. Single? I think very few. Then narrow that down to location and there are even fewer. I have never met an aspie girl and also have never seen anyone on here in my area. It would be nice to meet someone, but I won't hold my breath

Belfast: I?ve had a few silverfishes in my apartment and even though I haven?t seen any for a month, I?m still a little paranoid that they?re out there somewhere so have been checking for them, hence the analogy. It would definitely be interesting to see some statistics on the percentage of males and females, age ranges etc.
