It bothers me, though, that so many smart women say such disparraging things about other women. Especially when I don't see it in practice in my life.

If all of these things are true, there's a real problem.

Carrie, there is a real problem with people in general.

I try not to surround myself with people who I think are problematic/dramatic...but I'd be straight up lying if I didn't admit to being surrounded by and even participating in some of the bullshit that's been mentioned in this thread at some point in my life. My 20s were a mess and I've changed a lot as I have gotten older.

So "smart women" say it because it's what they have seen or even done at some point.

George Clooney ain't offerin jack shit to you ladies.....Johnart is more along his lines....

When we met for drinks that night, I couldn't look into your eyes for more than quick glances. I was afraid of getting cut.

I'm not complex though! Guys just don't like that I don't tolerate their BS.

Mach said:

Great! I thought I was the only one who does not find George attractive in the least.

JerseyKRS said:

thank GOD

JustErin said:

great post!

I've participated in some TERRIBLE behavior in my life, it's the maturity that moves you past such trite actions. Not that it is necessarily "inherent", just easy. Especially when it is swirling around you everywhere.

Listen, that woman almost jacked up an employee at Hot Topic for smiling at me the wrong way.

JustErin said:

so you're hard to please in relationships because
you don't want to lie?

i applaud that.

JerseyKRS said:

He's never been on my cut-a-bitch list, but I'm an open minded person.
Set the scene: How many drinks have I had???

johnart said:

oh, you're well stewed.....

JerseyKRS said:

I was gonna say "pickled", but we all know where that tangent would have went.

JerseyKRS said:

This is why if women ran the world, there still wouldn't be any peace. It would just be worse.


The USA would have went to war with Iraq, and instead of making up a WMD lie, Iraq would just have to guess why.


America, why are you upset with Iraq?
"Oh No reason? Why would I be upset with Iraq? What makes you think that? "

The thing that confuses me the most about the opposite sex doesn't really apply to the entire sex, but just to specific women within it.


I'm referring to women who do not like children or who hate babies.

I don't get it.. I know this says more about my male chauvinism than it does about those particular women, but they just seem so baron to me... I just don't understand women who don't like children. It boggles my mind.

I love children. I could never be with someone, male or female, who didn't also love them.

whistle said:

Yes, I guess you can put it that way. I'm pretty vocal about how I feel about something or what I want or don't want from someone.

Imago said:

I know a couple girls that are of that mindset, and....I gotta tell ya, neither one of them are happy with themselves.


Just sayin'.

Imago said:

I know you're making a joke, but I find that really offensive.

I must be PMSing.

JerseyKRS said:

It boggles my mind. And many of them love animals. So they have some capability of emotionally nurturing something--just not other human beings.

I once hung out with a girl that just despised children. It made her so unattractive to me.

CarrieMpls said:

I'm not joking.

Imago said:

Funny though

Imago said:

Wow.

It was an unwritten rule in the Air Force that girls didn't get roomates, even if they were very low ranking, unless there was absolutely no possibility of finding them their own room.


So almost no girls got roomates. I only knew of 2 girls ever who had roomates in their living quarters in my 8 years in the Air Force. (eventually, they phased roomates out altogether due to quality-of-life concerns).



But the dorm managers would admit that if you placed two girls in a room together, they would eventually hate each other, cause too many problems with dorm management, and need to get moved around---that or they would assault each other.

Seriously.


PS: Both sets of girls ended up hating each other.
