Close, but not quite. Men and women each have something the other wants. Men want sex. Women want commitment. The more socially deviant (in the past) would trick women into having sex with them, with the promise of commitment. Feminism has told women to be free to give away sex to whom ever they please; however, men still hold commitment tightly, and increasingly so. That's why you hear of women whining about where all the good men have gone. They're all here, but they're having sex without comm…
I think that this mindless push for drone consumers is a LARGE part of what makes for the troubles and depression we see so much of. Research shows depression being more prevalent in urban areas, which tends to be where The Advertisers are most prevalent. Maintaining a more stoic life would benefit men AND women. I'm truly starting to believe that TRP almost would do more help to women then feminism. My aunt and uncle were the ultimate corporate power couple, but they fought each other for years…
Well they called the initiative "He for She". It's still a pro women movement. Better to simply be a humanist and see the best for all people, regardless of gender. I'm not a women, so they're not going to help me.
Hey dude, glad to hear you're doing well. I always enjoy hearing when people can come to this sub and get some value, too many stay away based on the boogy-man stories Reddit tells. What you're seeing is your gf responding when you stand your ground. Youre standing up for yourself, and it's positive. She backs off, having tested you. Her complaining of an attitude is another test, this time a bigger one. She (not consciously perhaps) wants to see if this new you is genuine or if you're still abl…
[Jane] stated that she had learned that 90 percent of rapes are done by repeat offenders. She stated that another reason she decided to report this incident was because, based on what Jane Doe was told by Professor Dirks, John fit the profile of other rapists on campus in that he had a high GPA in high school, was his class valedictorian, was on [a sports] team, and was 'from a good family.' This is what gets me. The guy has a great life, so time to totally FUCK HIM OVER. I thought being an upst…

Here's the answer. You're very right. It's sickening to see what happens when you trust this girl. Not that I can't be trusting, but she should earn that and she's done nothing in the past to convince me that she should be trusted.
I'm stating my feelings and asking for help. No she did not cut off my balls... You may be right, maybe it's time to move on. You grow attached to people on some level though, you know?
Honestly, women get more vapid every day. Before I used to be able to find interesting girls at the rock climbing gym, or at the race track. But now there are either no girls there, or the dumb ones are coming to meet interesting guys. It's so frustrating, there's nothing to keep me interested.
There I was, an avowed feminist, suggesting that my husband should manage my finances for me. I find it strange that feminist ideas prevent her from asking for help when she needs it. I bet her spending wouldn't have got so out of control if she was able to seek out assistance earlier. ALSO: Here's the link to not improve their search engine rank: http://www.donotlink.com/bcux
I have a buddy of mine who is short, a little over weight and definitely older. However he thinks he's a mob boss. He carries this air of authority and power, and it's palpable. What comes out of you is a well-spring of your inner thoughts and "heart", if you want. If you can truly believe you're a powerful person who deserves respect, you will find that this attitude will leak into your reality.
Treat her like you'd treat a younger sister sibling. Poke her, tease her, challenge her to a dual. Shit like that. Things that you do, unapologeticly, because you like who you are and don't need her to think you're cool.
Well no, they want people to stay where they are. When they say just be yourself, it means the Alpha type with no approach fear should be himself and walk up and ask her out. It also means that the Beta with a thousand insecurities and self diagnosed "social anxiety" should stay in the corner and out of sight, so no one has to deal with his awkwardness.
It's never too late to correct something in your life. Your brain can be trained to do anything, so challenge yourself. Think about the millions of people who have lived before, and how they and their actions have been forgotten. Think about how insignificant your fears of rejection are.
Hm. I think I'm more the type that steam boats ahead through my life, where woman are not really that important. Or no one is yet. Build race cars, sail my boat. I'll just keep all the ones who are around as FBs, who are free to have boyfriends or other relationships as they please.
I'm wondering, I sleep with women, and I find that since I don't really care if she's had prior partners (as I would be a hypocrite to be annoyed) the anti-slut defense doesn't come up much. Do we want girls who will sleep with us? Or do we only want chaste types? (I want pornstars only.)
I have no problem with marriage. Knowing what I know now, I wish I could have a "do over". I so do want to share this stuff with people, but you're right that most people are not ready, and some (like the guy I messaged) will fight for the status quo. You're probably right though, that I should just leave these people to their own devices.
I suppose. I just see his 5-6 posts of him whining and I start thinking about I wish I could have not been such a fucking puss in my marriage. Live and learn though.
His reply was "you type of people make me sick. get fucked." Now I wish I hadn't spent the 15 minutes on this lost soul. Experience is what you get after you need it, it's too bad this guy is going to have to learn the hard way, rather than from the experience and wisedom of others.
I agree. It is very refreshing and they totally stand out to me, even if they have the most basic shit going on. Anything beyond FASHUN and "i love travelling lol" is amazing. I also find that the girls who have interests are far easier for me to pick up, since I excel at being able to make conversation about nearly anything.
I've been wading through the murky water that is Tinder and it's...eye opening. I'm quite attractive and as of this moment I've got 261 matches in the past 2 months. It's hilarious though, as soon as you start talking to these girls, they're a myriad of social and mental issues. No interests, no passions, nothing they're excited about. I am constantly forcing them to qualify themselves, but so many are unable because their personalities are so vapid. That being said, I've also met some refreshin…
Cutting through the scathing sarcasm in this thread, /u/Manuel_S makes an interesting thought. Everything a man does is an endorsement of rape culture. Honestly though, if we're all serious for a second here, it does often feel this way. I can't discuss the issues (cuz I'm a man and my opinions are invalid) and I can't take action to help women (cuz that's men taking over again). So we're left with women helping themselves. But here we see women don't WANT to help themselves. They want to talk a…
I have found that some of the most engaging and interesting women have been ones that were very overweight, but lost it all. They were forced to become confident in things other than their looks, but now they have both.
I have found that getting into something slowly is often better than jumping into it and "learning while drowning". I thought for a while that to get better with girls I should go out, alone, to a club and approach 100 women. I did this, but at the end I was totally burnt out and had learned very little. I stopped and took a different approach. I simply walk up to someone, male or female, and ask them for the time. Then I ask them for the time and "How is your day?" Then I ask for the time, how …
