What kinds of things do guys do that make you feel good?

This is what I loved about being a teenager (well, I didn't REALIZE I loved it back then -- just compared to now, in adulthood). When you're a teenager, it's easier for girls and guys to just look into each others eyes, and consider the most simple and mundane things about each other to be enchanting wonders, while dismissing literally every other thought.

There was this girl I *almost officially* dated when I was 19 and she was 17. I had just moved out of my Dad's house, and was living "on my own" for the very first time ... ah, what memories...
The girl was stunningly gorgeous. And she didn't care that I had a messy, 275-sq-ft (one room) apartment, a messy '79 Pontiac with no air conditioner (in Texas, where the summer reaches above 110º ), she didn't care that I was poor ... it was just incredible. I was a poor slob, she was a stunning goddess, and she was head-over-heels in love with me. We even alluded briefly to having children one today together. She would just beam from ear to ear at me, as if she was off in another world.

And then she was gone. Ah, such is life. C'est la vie!
I told her about Jesus, and she left me.
But I'm very loosely in touch with her on Myspace -- she has a boyfriend. Truth be known, I wouldn't really want her anyway, in a relationship, because I don't think we're truly compatible. But that's the kind of comfortable illusion teen romance can bring... and that's why I liked that simpler version of romance more than this $$$-centered, nit-picky-out-everything, "grown-up" version. (Why do we get more immature in some ways as we get older?)

Ah, the memories...



Just kidding, that's just the new Ben Stiller movie.

Heh, I'm still hoping to fall in love just like you almost did in highschool. I wish I experienced that growing up.

I just need to find someone wallowing in arrested development like I am.

I hope LPP continues to be just as openly bitter and hateful towards women as he is now.

That way, they'll all run when they see him coming, and none of them will have to put up with his misogyny.

Did he say he hates women? Or, does he directly imply that he hates women?

If not, you can't rightly call him a misogynist.

If someone said that I was so materialistic that nothing else mattered to me very much, I would assume that they hated me.

If someone said that to me, I would first consider whether it's a true statement. If I concluded it was, or saw exactly why that person would think that, I would conclude they were just being frank with me, but not that they necessarily hated me. I'd then seek clarification from them on that point.

well, according to wikipedia misogyny also means "strong prejudice against women", if that's the case, it would mean the level of prejudice could go from sexism to misogyny, it seems.


Take a look at this, I couldn't resist

*gasp*
Someone might have viewed it differently than you did! I suppose we should inform them that that was the wrong way to approach it.

Well, according to the Greek etymology -- a slight step up from Wiki -- it means hatred ---> "misein", of women ---> "gynē", just as I said.

Yeah. The good ones would probably do that.

His words are pretty indicative of
a generalized bitterness towards
women.

The works. I'd also please my man, by giving him the works.

What's the works?

That's just warming up.

Ah, I see!
