"The word on girls" (warning: long)

[Malus 12:9]

A lot of people here seem to like to share what they recieve in their junk mail. I
decided to sign into a hotmail account (oh the trauma...) and this is funny ****.

Anyways, for those of you that remember member "HelpMe", well he forwarded me
to some guy that gives emails out with "advice on women".... I know this stuff is
pretty much useles crap to buy the guy's "dating tips cd"...but hey here's one of the emails I got.:biglaugh:

THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN WORDS AND THE REAL
WORLD...

Have you ever heard a woman say something like:

"I want a guy who is sensitive."

"I want a guy who's in touch with his feelings."

"I want a guy who's a good communicator."

"I want a guy who is strong."

"I want a guy who is sexy."

...?

Of course you have.

Women say this stuff all the time.

One of my favorites is:

"I want a REAL MAN."

I love that one.

In the past, when I'd hear women say, "I want a
REAL MAN", I had NO IDEA what the hell they were
talking about.

It almost didn't make sense.

But keep in mind, even though these things
don't always make sense to us guys, they make
PERFECT sense to women.

Here's the problem...

When a woman says one of these things, she
actually MEANS something that is different from
what a guy would mean if he said the same words.

Let me explain.

If a guy says "I'm going to stay home and relax
today", he probably means that he's going to stay
home, watch some sports, drink a beer, look at
pictures of women on the internet, and order a
pizza.

If a WOMAN says that she's going to stay home
and relax, she's probably NOT going to watch some
sports, drink a beer, look at pictures of women on
the internet, and order a pizza.

IMPORTANT NOTICE: If you are reading this right
now and you are a woman who watches sports, drinks
beer, looks at pictures of the women on the
internet, and orders pizza to relax, then contact
me immediately at the email address below. And
send pictures.

Back to what I was saying...

Women are DIFFERENT from men. And the words
they use often don't mean what they SOUND like
they mean.

So, the FIRST thing that you have to get
through your head is that just because a woman
SAYS something to you, doesn't mean that it means
what you THINK it means.

Catch my meaning?

THE BIG SECRET SHE ISN'T TELLING YOU

There's a little secret that women never happen
to mention when they're describing what they want
in a man.

Unfortunately, for all of us good guys who are
trying to be what women want... and hoping that if
we try hard enough to please women that they'll
like us... this little secret is causing us a LOT
of trouble.

The SECRET is that women ONLY want the things
that they're asking for from a guy who already has
about 100 other qualities that they never mention.

In other words, if a woman says, "I want a man
who is a good communicator", what she REALLY means
is:

"I want a guy who already has his life together,
is interesting, unpredictable, dominant, funny,
healthy, charismatic, confident, and loyal... who
is ALSO a good communicator."

The REALITY is that when a woman says one of
these "I want a guy who" statements, she actually
has an IDEAL guy in mind, who ALSO happens to be a
good communicator.

She's NOT imagining Homer Simpson sitting on
his couch reading a book on communication

you should get gmail. i have an invite if you want it.

 

[Hope]

I don't think men will ever truly understand women.....we're too complex. More brain cells, perhaps?

I jest, of course....

 

[Shadow Wolf]

Women are DIFFERENT from men.

Does someone really have to point that out to someone?

I don't think men will ever truly understand women.....we're too complex.

I challenge any woman out thier to try to figure me out.

Sadly, I get those same emails to my netzero account. And there all basically saying the same thing, which is mainly, women don't mean what they say.

 

[The Black Whirlwind]

women are enigmas. the man who figures them out should win the nobel prize for psychology.

 

[Jaymes]

Actually, they're really not that different.

 

[Ryan2065]

I've got women figured out...

=)

And yes, I give lots of guys dating advice... Its just because I have tons of girl friends and chat with them all the time...

 

[Quoth The Raven]

It's not that women don't mean what they say, it's that "YOU DON"T BLOODY LISTEN PROPERLY!!!'

And of course, all you men are just looking for some baggage laden frump with a psychotic ex doing time in prison for trying to kill her last love interest, and a pathalogical fear of commitment. As long as she has a nice personality, everything else is irrelevent.

 

[Malus 12:9]

But keep in mind, even though these things don't always make sense to us guys, they make
PERFECT sense to women.

Frubals to the emailer.

"YOU DON"T BLOODY LISTEN PROPERLY!!!'

It's hard to listen to what they want, because it is added on to every five minutes,
and usually changes therin. On the spot decisions are usually difficult to fulfill.

I think I will stick to the game girls, less hassle

Yes, probably a good idea. They don't have a problem with misogyny for a start. But I reiterate, you don't listen properly, because you're too busy whining about how hard we are to understand and how wrong it is of us to have any sort of desire that may result in us getting fed up with your lack of interest in fulfilling it.

 

[Malus 12:9]

Of course, it's all the male's fault as usual. And all males are the same, aren't they?

They don't have a problem with misogyny for a start

If I have stated a hatred for women in this thread, I do apologise. It wasn't my intentions.
I wanted no debates; I merely wished for people to have a laugh at that email, myself included,
because frankly, as I stated earlier, it's a bull**** email.

I jest, of course....

Women are not complex. They are rather simple. What is complex is figuring out how to both be what we want to be and what women want us to be; of course, that is if we accept the largely ridiculous premise that we SHOULD be what women want us to be in the first place.

Truth be told, the kind of women most men want are the kind of women who want a mature, responsible, successful, intelligent, motivated, social, wealthy, attractive, healthy and unpredictable man... A Man's Man, so to speak. Now, these kinds of men can have almost any woman they want, so women, finding themselves in a position of having to please him and jump through hoops for him, often refer to him as arrogant, selfish, stuck-up and mean. Why? Because he doesn't want them! He wants a woman who is attractive, sexy, good in bed and who doesn't cause him very much stress.

Now, because most men can't get the kind of woman they want, they have to get the kind of women they can get; i.e. women who aren't as attractive, who tend to be emotionally demanding and who just want to settle down with a "nice guy". Except, it is this emotionally demanding nature that makes men feel as though they have to be something that they are not and it is this emotionally demanding nature that confuses the hell out of men and gives them the impression that women are complex. They are not.

Most women are emotionally demanding because the men they are with are not the men they are really looking for. They are having to settle. Just as the men are settling for her. Therefore, if you are not the exciting, well built, wealthy, liked-by-all-her-friends kind of guy, you at least better treat her as if she is a queen. Of course, in order to do this you have to basically sell your manhood, give up your personal liberty, buy some matching sweaters and learn to live without much sex.

The real trick, if you are not a wealthy and attractive man, is to be 100% true to yourself. Women don't want a "nice guy" until they feel they have to settle for one. So, if you aren't the wealthy and attractive Man's Man, at least be confident, motivated and demand the very best for yourself in all things. Women will respect you for that.

If a woman doesn't respect you, if she is not impressed with you, your sex life and your romantic life will suffer greatly. Remember, she is settling for you. So, the moral of the story is, be yourself, don't be the "nice guy", don't lower your standards and be 100% genuinely self-assured. That way, you'll get the type of woman that is right for you; one that will respect you, desire you and will want to please you. What you have to give her in return is love ,loyalty , time and compassion. That is how you make it work.

 

[Malus 12:9]

I concede. I'll say what all women want to hear from me: You are the better sex.There ya go.
I withdraw from this thread. You win Lady. Females are superior. Men are ****. I don't care anymore....

ohhh c'mon, don't cop out now... it's just getting interesting.

I don't know if I should be amused or saddened that my link to that study that says men and women really aren't that different was ignored in favor sitcom-style of bickering... :areyoucra

I didn't ignore it Jensa, I thought the article very interesting.

I do wonder though if things haven't changed in the last hundred years (a kind of mini evolution). Certainly roles of men and women have become much alike. My father never knew where to look for a plate or a cup in the kitchen, just as my mother couldn't change a light bulb. I honestly believe that our society has developed our abilities to take on each other's roles (with some exceptions, of course) - I will never be able to iron a shirt............:biglaugh:

Tsk tsk, I pride myself on my ironing skills, and I can change any number of light bulbs, find plates and cook meals, but girls are simply irreplacable.

I don't expect "girls" to be any less confused about what they want than "boys".

 

[Faint]

I read it. It was interesting. For all our differences, we do have a lot in common. But I think our differences (many of which are probably just conditioned) cannot be ignored.

For instance, take the typical first date scenario. A guy and a girl describe their ideas of a perfect evening:

The girl says: "He shows up on time with a single red rose, and a smile showing that we are going to have fun tonight. He tells me I look great, and even my dog seems to like him. We go to his car (which is nice, like a BMW or something) and he opens the door for me. Then he takes me to a nice restaurant and we have a great conversation. I offer to pay, but he insists. Then we go for a nice walk in the park, and when I get cold he gives me his coat to wear. Finally, when he drops me off at home, we kiss and he tells me he can't wait to see me again."

The guy says: "Show up naked. Bring food."

 

[Jaymes]

Do you honestly know a girl or guy who would say exactly that? That's just stereotyping.
