I'd like to think that someone who helps crippled children isn't just doing it to impress a woman with unrealistic standards. Just imagine, all those crippled kids are just props for facilitating attraction. I wonder what all those crippled kids would say if you told them that.

Maybe there aren't enough guys working with crippled kids because there aren't enough crippled kids to go around. Surely every guy would take care of a crippled kid if he could find one, and thereby get into your pants.

If only there were more crippled kids...

And more astrophysics jobs for aspiring astrophysicists, and money grew on trees then we could all be rich. Take it from someone who's been there, there just isn't enough money to make all the aspiring physicists rich, nor is there enough to do so that they can earn it. Not even if they're willing to work hard.

Well, of course, but that wasn't the point of my post.

You need to seduce your target man in order to have a chance with him, he won't pop up from thin air.

You're clearly not trying hard enough. Try harder!

i never thought to read the wikipedia explanation of jokes before. i have never really been interested in them, but i became interested when i read (in the linked article) about the history of jokes, and i started to wonder what sort of jokes were around in antiquity, and i found a few ancient roman jokes that i thought were very funny, but the funniest one is the example wikipedia gives:

A barber, a bald man and an absent minded professor take a journey together. They have to camp overnight, so decide to take turns watching the luggage. When it's the barber's turn, he gets bored, so amuses himself by shaving the head of the professor. When the professor is woken up for his shift, he feels his head, and says "How stupid is that barber? He's woken up the bald man instead of me."

i have to say i find that funny, and i have an indescribable feeling about the fact that the person who thought of this joke is unknown, and will never be known. it is hard to imagine i could laugh with a person 2000 years ago at this joke he thought of.

it is hard to imagine that all other evidence of his existence has been obliterated over so much time, and that the body he lived in is cast so widely to the sands of time.

i also have started reading ancient stories as a result of your link.

dust wrote them. i want to hear what dust said before it was dust

Perhaps someone can provide me with a logical explanation as to the utility gained by proliferating seemingly unprovoked and unwarranted nastiness? What is the point - does it make one feel better to strike out against someone - especially under the guise of anonymity afforded by the auspices of the Word Wide Web?

For me, it begs the question - would they do it in real life if they were face to face with someone?

i know that all aspie guys don't believe this, and not even most. it's is only a vocal few, but those vocal few make it very hard to be a female on the site. it is extremely discouraging to hear the sexist remarks again and again. sometimes it gets better on the site, and other times it gets worse. right now Who_Am_I noticed what i have also noticed... it's a bit of a low point.

i am not a fan of sarcasm, but i think that her thread kind of highlights the general climate here at the moment.

please report to a moderator if you see any posts that cross the line into actual sexism (or that break the rules for other reasons too). and to people posting, please stop and think before clicking "submit" to reflect whether you are generalising about an entire gender with your words. thank you.

Well, first of all, you need to get a real world education in dating and the first lesson of it is "Location, Location, Location!". It's not our fault if you're spending way too much time in the music department with fellow destitutes.

There are plenty of charity organizations and people in need to be helped, especially amongst the elders there always seems to be a lack of volunteers. It's very different to actually conretely and actively work with a charity than just to say that you appreciate a cause. A lot of people choose not to take the step further.

I've worked with a number of charities, it takes time and effort, but people employed by the organizations are usually very welcoming of the newcomers. Talking from experience, though, it's not a specifically good way to try to impress somebody. People don't seem to think that young adults and charity work sincerely go hand to hand together and the time and effort it takes one has to be genuinely motivated, not just to get to say "Oh by the way, I help crippled children".

Please don't mock the charities... All people, crippled, AS and anyone else, deserve to be treated as human beings, not props or tools.
