The Last Psychiatrist: "We hear the refrain that media images create unrealistic expectations of women to be hot, etc, but the flip side is that some men can't understand why everyone else seems to be able to hook up easily, freely, fun-ly, while they're in the corner all boiling rage."

Although I'm completely unable to pick girls up (19 year old virgin), I have never ever blamed it on the girls. I'm just a mule for genetic code and I have got the wrong code.

Society sells us delusions in all shapes and forms: From beauty queens to rock stars. Accept the reality that TV shows you and you'll find yourself lacking in almost every way. There's no soundtrack to your life and you don't always get the girl. Sometimes you're the villian and sometimes you don't have what it takes.

But the answer to this is to not sit idly by and make commentary on how things are dissapointing and fucked up, the solution is to do what you as a man feel is right, regardless of what other's say. In the end all we have is our integrity and what we symbolized to those around us. Do not let them label you as they do the rest of the commercialized goods flooding our senses.

That's the flip side? One would think that body-image problems for boys would be the flip side. There are male anorexics, you know. And there's tons of steroid abuse to fit that big muscular masculine ideal.

"The part that interests me is that society is organized in such a way that the natural instincts of men are shameful and criminal while the natural instincts of women are mostly legal and acceptable."

This is so true. For thousands of years, males have looked for young females. They did this because the younger the female, the longer she has to bring more of his offspring into the world. Males have also mated with multiple females to bring about this same effect. For thousands of years, females have looked for a strong, older, wiser mate that could provide for her and her offspring. Here we are, thousands of years later, civilized people. The only problem is that we have thousands of years of instinct behind us, and we have only become "civilized" within the last few hundred years. And yet, men are vilified for looking at, and thinking about young females, and multiple partners. However, women are applauded for going after a man that makes a lot of money so he can provide for her and her offspring. How is this even fair? Short answer, it isn't; and, I would LOVE to know how this came about.
