I don't understand women who say "I don't get along with other women".


I'd certainly say I don't get along as well with other women.

Women, *in general*, tend to be more passive-aggressive and conniving than men. I don't know why.

Many women find me to be threatening, abrasive, and offensive. I just think I'm direct and honest.

I don't really get it, but it's certainly a pattern in my life.


I don't get how people find men "loveable" who are direct and honest, but a woman is a bitch for the same thing. confuse

I lost a few good friends and in danger of losing a third because I keep seeing the same pattern.... these women run themselves ragged and fall into deep depression being mistresses to married men.

One was a god-mother to my daughter. She started stalking the lover she had and his wife, when she did it with my daughter (who at the time was two) I had to keep my daughter away from her, she got angry and stopped seeing us.

I miss her, I hope she's OK.

But why must some women always think that you have an agenda, when you are only want to help?

Why is it that some women love to help you out but can never accept help in return?

Why do some women hate you just because of the way you look? Not prettier, or anything, just different.... why hate at all?

Why is being emotional, thoughtful and sensitive considered less than masculine? I don't like that.



That particular line of thought only goes so far until you step up and beat the living shit out of someone who takes those qualities in you as being less than masculine....

...and I say that because I'm in the military and if you're not a gung-ho neanderthal 24/7/365, some idiot will try you....(and I speak from the experience of being 18, 5'8", 130 lbs, and not exactly what you'd call a bruiser the first time I was stationed in Germany....)

I think because women's shoes are devices of torture


then foot care products should be packaged like sex toys, and that way it will appeal to the woman's masochistic nature, and it will appeal to foot fetishists of either gender, and if it's packaged to look like you can have sex with it, then men will feel comfortable buying it too.

wait, i kinda forgot the point i was trying to make. redface

I want everything packaged in a functional unisex manner with no frills, like myself biggrin

I will never know why some men don't understand pursuing women like mere pieces of meat is 1) savage; and 2) rarely gonna net them any meat worth having.

Fellas, treating women (most women, anyway confused) as something other than prey can go a LOOOOONG way. Just notice the droves of amazing women hanging out around any given homosexual. lol

I don't understand why other men don't enjoy strutting round the house while their wife is out in just her underwear and a bit of lipstick.


Shit, did I just say that out loud...?!

Well there is plenty I do not understand about my female ilk! lol

However, I just go with the flow for the most part except if somebody is in trouble.. asking my advice or talking about being in trouble.. and through the course of conversation I just give my opinion.

I guess, I look more at things on individual basis rather than collectively, then based on gender.

But for sure, there is plenty I do not understand about a lot of things. lol

I don't understand women that preach compulsory marriage for all women as if it was the panacea for the challenges that life presents to everybody. Ironically, they don't look and sound too happy with their choice of having gotten married and having had a couple of kids.

I don't understand the preference for romantic movies such as The Titanic.

OK!!

Why a bitch gotta give me her menstrual symptoms? I was fine before I met certain women... then one gets cramps between her cycles then the next month BAM! It happens to me too. WTH?
One friend farts uncontrollably during her cycle, then guess what happened to me when I got mine? LAWD!
And don't let us all get together too often, we'll start getting our cycles together. Its crazy.

Women please stop sharing your weird menstrual symptoms through the power of psychosomatic osmosis with other women who don't suffer as you do.

Nothing wrong with loving your kids, Paintedlady. Do you preach marriage to single women?

I don't understand why some women carry purses like this one around:



Look at the woman on the left side with her shoulders tilting to the right. The weight on her left shoulder is molding her into bad posture. Add some high heels...and I wonder if this is some form of torture. confuse
