Men and women. Friends or foes?

Speaking of preys, my female friends and I go hunting on Saturday night.blue
Whom do we hunt? Men, Male preys.

One of my favorite groups, and that also includes another Swedish group ABBA. My maternal grandmother was Swedish, and I always related most to that side of my family.

BTW, my appearance is quite Scandinavian with my blue eyes, blonde hair [when I had some], and my build. When traveling in Sicily, I attracted attention because that combo is so rare there.

In Western Sicily there is a little bit higher percentage of blue-eyed and green-eyed people because they had the Normans and the Swabians.
Frederick II of Swabia was a redhead with beautiful blue eyes. Described by historians.

My wife's mother was of Moorish ancestry, which is common with a great many Sicilians. Her father's heritage has a very long history being in Sicily.

Trapani had a substantial number of Jews living there, and when I found that out, I realized why my mother-in-law often used Jewish techniques with food preparation and diet in general. Couscous was and is very often made and used, and I love it! Salting & draining meat before cooking is called "koshering" in Hebrew, and my mother-in-law did that all the time.

In Sicily all Mediterranean races are condensed in one: Jewish, Greek, Castilian, Catalan, Saracens.
It's like a Russian salad: so many ingredients merged into one salad. :)

"Nice guy" is usually used as a polite way to suggest that someone is an obsequious milquetoast.
I have heard that in the US there is this idiom Nice guys finish last.
Quite the opposite, here. The nice, shy, tidied guy, is so appealing. As you saw in the video...she eyed him and caught him like a prey.
Lucky her...

Or as an excuse for someone who can't get laid because their standards are too high or they're jerks (likely both--see "incel").

The incel phenomenon is very interesting.
It may be one of the results of the widened distance between the two sexes...but not necessarily.

Honestly, with all the single women here, I guess they do have high standards. :)

With all due respect...but I guess I have the right to think that a certain president (the 45th) is not one of those.
:)

"Right to" and "being right" are two different things. ;)

I have the right t think that he is a walking, talking sack of trash that is popular only because you can't ignore walking, talking sacks of trash.

It is admittedly interesting, as well as frightening. From what I understand, they lament not being able to have sex and blame this on being "nice guys" without investing any time in improving their ability to form positive relationships.

I don't know...it seems strange to me.
Because at least here Italian girls go crazy for kind, nice guys. Looks doesn't really matter.

Maybe American women do prefer the tough ones...I don't know (I am just guessing).

No, I think girls enjoy kind, nice guys here as well. But we also have a lot of guys who get into the "manosphere" subculture which is frankly toxic and controlling and they become "not nice or kind" guys.
