Question about women

The guy who responded to the girl actually has a really good point. (If you're cold blooded enough to take love and romance out of the equation) Very interesting read.
The story got more interesting this week as they're were trying to pin the guy who did it.

The man who is widely credited with writing the response did not respond to a voice message, but the media relations department at JPMorgan Chase confirmed that he worked there and said that he was not the author. Rather, a company spokesman said, he had forwarded the e-mail message to friends, and the signature setting on his e-mail accompanied the response when it wound up on blogs.
...

“Your workplace computer does not exist as a tool for forwarding jokey things,” said Will Schwalbe, an author of “Send: The Essential Guide to E-Mail for Office and Home.”

"Pin" it on him? What, like he committed a crime?

Personally, I have a moral problem with the idea of being intimate with successive girlfriends, and then dumping them when they get too old, rather than settling down with one woman and marrying her. (Or not getting married, but remaining celibate) But if you don't - well, I see the guys point. From a purely economic standpoint, it doesn't make much sense. (Again, not counting the effect love and life long romance can have....) Very interesting story though, thanks Whomp.

It's not something the investment firms want to have as a reputation.

Maybe you're not understanding his point. She's come out and blatantly saying she's a gold digger. A lease deal for someone like her makes more sense. The point is her looks aren't the whole package. She's got as much to prove in a long term relationship than just asking why she can't meet the average $500,000 guy. How about she steps and does it herself?

hahaha, that's pretty funny Whomp. Thanks for posting it! :thumbsup:
I thought about making a thread out of it but I'm a horrible thread starter. :p
 
Some people call that psychosis.

Let us delve further:



http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Psychosis

Thanks but I doubt your qualifications. Not to mention a few lines of text in the 'net is in no way tantamount to several deep discussions on a couch, with you diligently taking notes. Actually, I just like to expand my mind from time to time... explore new points of view. I've achieved modest success from exploring new concepts, and have no intention of stopping any time soon, just so I can perceived as 'typical'. Because I'm anything but... I like to think of myself as - unrestricted. Pyschosis is losing touch w/ reality. I'm merely probing deep into new lines of thought with the intent of gaining more visibility on reality itself. I'm also baffling you w/ BS - since that's all you deserve at this juncture.


What you're referring to is called the "congruence test." The reason that a woman tries to put down a man is to see if he is man enough to put her in her place, and lead her rather than the other way around. In a roundabout way, it is an invitation.

You're right in that this behavior has been going on since the beginning of human civilization. The only difference today is that women today have far more passes on their behavior than they did in the past, and can get away with far more outrageous comment and behavior which men will let slide because they're too timid.

Wow, a reasonable response. I don't even know what to say. See, this is exactly the type of engaging discussion I was hoping for. As for the 'test', let's forget about the woman herself, and try to figure out why nature -presumably- would place such a mechanism in her instinct in the first place. Anyway, I'll have to think about this, but as far as modern times - perhaps it is the case that this technique continues to operate in a totally unbalanced environment, vs. the past. Thus, it spins out of control and becomes destabilizing. Of course we're talking about courtship, pairbonding - that kind of stuff. But inevitably it's spilling over into other areas. Anyway, I think both the causes & effects are due to a myriad of disruptions in the environment compared to the stability evolution had wrought throughout the centuries before things became so complex.

Life can probably adapt. Wouldn't surprise me. But it's still risky - CHEMICALLY speaking (as in, bio-), to proceed on this course. Granted it's happening in extreme slow motion compared to what the average person's attention observes, but there is a distinct trend to be sure. And I find it concerning.

you didn't answer my question!!!

I see your question as completely irrelevant, unless you can submit/prove otherwise. What was it again, about my employer? Let's just say; I don't work - I just think. True enough, in reality.

Women are smarter than you.

If it is indeed the case, this would be the first time a man has ever stated as such. Otherwise, countless.

It's not deep and profound to try to be all coldly logical. It just makes you a pretentious prick. =/

I think women get a kick out of belittling you. I know I do. =O

Precious. Precious that you can't realize that belittling must be consensual. Anyway I find this all to be... pretty cute. What I am above all, is an analyst. It's in my blood. I observe in detail, and intuitively see how it all works. Here I've just been saying, that there is something concering afoot. But, it's no sweat off me... so, if we can't talk about it, fine. How many times has a woman told me, "I can't talk about this right now"...? :hmm:

Silly. And precious - all at the same time. We really should have volunteered more than a mere rib, though. Then again the blind can't very well lead the blind, can they?
 
Here is a philosphy you should hold to women. The game before a relationship the man is in total control, the relationship is when the man is trapped and in every instance has two options, obey or break-up.

Oh. Well then.

For the record, my guess was USPS.

It's relevant because I was going to angle for some humor in that direction; honestly, if I satirized everything in your 1079 word rant that was worthy of satire (including the fact that you quoted your mother right after the clip from The Office about the guy referencing his mother) I would probably be banned FOR LIFE. :lol: :( You're not worth that.*

*EDIT: yet! Don't be discouraged, I'm not saying you don't have potential.
 
The human race is getting better every generation. To hell with the concept of "Gender Roles" "Masculinity" "Femininity" and everything else to do with gender stereotyping and oppression. It's about time we stopped making so called "Real Men". Because "Real Men" have done nothing more then oppressed women, prayed on the weak and generally made us all more miserable through their silly, rigid concepts. There is nothing wrong with trying new things, having compassion for others and respecting those around you. It is only a recent phenomenom when female independence was recognised as a serious concept. And never should we allow the trends of continuing liberalisation to stop, lest we decend again into more nasty times
 
this is what ill say if a girl gives you a hard time
-slap the b**** tell her to shut up.
-take what she is good for and tell her if she ever leaves you you will kill her.
-tell her your the man and you are goin to sleep around as much as you want and if she has a problem tell her she can join
-if you come home and your food isnt made beat the crap out of her and say it better be ready 2marro
-if she brings friends over tell her if they have a hole between there legs they most meet with you first for a few hours before they can visit, and if its a dude beat the crap out of her
-if she doesnt have a job do what i do! stick her on the corner where she belongs and make her pay for herself, and when she comes home take that money and say its for listening to her b****
-and if she has a kid kick her out and say it aint your baby its that black dude she has been seeing
-and if she talks slap her and say "the only time a b**** should open her mouth is when she gives head"

dont let her be in charge!

and if you cant do that thats straight on you, and thats why women are treating you like crap.

TAKE CHARGE!
 
Sarcasm is so difficult to detect on the internet but still great when used :D
 
it isnt sarcasm, im being dead on with this dude
 
That's some seriously whacked out sexist crap right there.

Barefoot and pregnant in the kitchen, I say! Damnit women, back to your proper place! I'm the one in charge around here! Do what I say! :lol:

You better get a clue, or move somewhere that prostitution is legal.

Emphasis added.
My ex-girlfriend is a prostitute (and yes, she was at the time we were dating as well), and she gets a lot of sexually frustrated men who have simply written off women as something between mystifying and evil. Men like, say, Lotus.

Exactly. Eeeeexactly.
 
"while the man sits on the floor wearing a dog collar, and polishing her excessive shoe collection"

This is pretty funny, because I know a fellow who is probably literally doing that, right now. Well actually at a more civil hour, but yesterday or today for sure.

Lotus, if this is a "why can't I meet a 'more traditional' woman" rather than a general rant about the state of the world today, I'd suggest that you get involved in the D/s community, where you'll find women that will probably adhere better to your ideals. Though if you think that all women should be that way, then the Dommes are going to really tick you off. :lol:

The reason this is so is because that's how evolution has made it. Men were the leaders of hunter-gatherer tribes and the women were expected to follow. The brains of both sexes eventually fell into line to expect as such. Even though we have long since passed the days of hunter-gatherer stone age tribes, evolution has not caught up. Technology and society move far faster than evolution.

If you are faced with this scenario and put a woman in her place, she will very quickly fold and submit (she was, after all, hoping to). I always call a woman's bluff and nearly always get my way in such instances. Think of women as really bad poker players who can't bluff convincingly.

I have managed to evolve right along with the times. Not all of us are neanderthals.

Try giving a woman what she wants, and you might find life more fulfilling. It could give you a purpose beyond self-gratification. It could make you a part of something greater than yourself alone. I realize that most of someone's sexual experience might be masturbation or one-sided sex, but try to see - mutual satisfaction is much better.

I think I'm going to give up on this thread. Let the sexist neanderthals rant all they want. They are a dying breed that offers ZERO competition with me, so what do they matter anyway. I would not want a girlfriend who would be with a sexist guy (low self-esteem chicks are a drag), but sexist's ex-girlfriends (and current girlfriends) make great one night stands. Even if it isn't long term, they deserve some joy in their life and are astonishingly grateful when they encounter a homo sapien.
 
Some women aren't very good at introspection. Everyone (or almost everyone, Igloodude) likes to have a bit more than half the power in a relationship (be it friendship or sexual).
Women have never been physically stronger. They get power through manipulation. They need a hook in you first: an emotion, preferably love for them. But they can deal with jealousy, envy, desire... anything: it's what a lot of women and some men live and breathe. They see emotion in a situation in the same way that I see angles and movement.

Modern society has no use for physical power except in very limited situations. Therefore emotional manipulation is more powerful than it might have become through evolution alone.

However, most women do like a man who exudes power, whether they call it charisma, power, being fit, being the leader of the pack, being a rebel (when a teenager) or any other phrase. The problem comes when a woman who is good at manipulation, either through practise, intelligence or the ability to inspire more powerful emotions (like desire or jealousy) meets a man.

She tries her tricks, and is upset when they don't work. She likes the man, because he seems more 'powerful' than others she has met, but she doesn't connect this with the failure of her tricks. So she tries her tricks even harder. It's a vicious circle (or cycle, depending on how you've been brought up), spiralling into abuse.

The solution is to avoid these women, because although prettier women are more likely to be like this, there are some wonderful women out there. I have been lucky enough to end up knowing one, but I have also been unfortunate enough to know one of the most uninsightful, manipulative and arrogant specimens humanity can have produced.
 
I wish this thread were less full of male chauvinists.
