Not science. Not true. Not news.

SCIENCE CONFIRMS: WOMEN FIND MOST MEN 'CREEPY', BUT RICH MEN LESS 'CREEPY.'

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Additional Studies find the word "Rich" least creepy of all, but increases in 'creepiness' when paired with the word 'Man'.

Maybe I'm in the minority but I've always preferred people that I can have a intelligent conversation with regardless of gender. Means a greater chance of being challenged and becoming a better person for it.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points4 points 10 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Yes, you're a minority of one. The girls ladies strong intelligent businesswomen in the office here tell me that your post is causing quite the stir on the Female Grapevine. They've never seen anything like you. You've been identified as a Keeper. You've set yourself apart from other men, those strutting boors with brittle egos who fear and hate Uppity Women.

No, you're not a minority. I've said that sort of thing myself, in the same oh-so-modest tone, and so have an awful lot of people here. You're entirely typical of men born after the 1960's. You're not a rebel against the system, you're a product of the system.

Boys growing up until the 1960s were able to honestly say that they wanted to marry someone like Sandra Dee and not be accused of being a misogynist with a brittle ego. During the boyhood of most of the men here, the only socially acceptable answer has been to say that when you grow up you want to marry someone like Sandra Tsing Loh.

I should clarify intelligence is important but not everything. I recall one brilliant creative woman that declared that men at a basic level were rapists and that only current social mostly feminist conditioning kept this evil nature in check. She tried to support her position by talking about the mating habits of various types of monkeys and suggesting human males were on the rapist side of the scale. Suffice it to say that we strongly disagreed about where humans fell on this scale.

The conversation challenged me and made me a better person but I don't associate with her anymore as the thought of being around someone that thinks I'm evil at some basic level sickens me.

Of course men scared of planning a date with a smarter woman more successful woman when most women answer when asked directly that they want a man who is smarter and more successful than they are.

Biased reporting. Looking at the original article the scientists state the the diminished masculinity is pure guesswork. Other than that this is just another in a long line of "statistics" which are reported on before the numbers come out to create a buzz. 105 men? Such sample, much wow!

Other than the obvious white knights and ideologically driven feminists they're not fooling anyone.

Oh wow, I'm shaking in my boots over your P.H.D. I think this may be one of the dumbest things I've ever read.

[–]GenderNeutralLanguag 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Yea, lets get some actual responses, then completely ignore them to get the conclusions we want.

I personally am much less likely to ask out someone significantly smarter than me. It's not because my masculinity is threatened. It's because my experience with smart women is that they have never been trained to treat males with even basic human dignity.

I'm not going to waste my time pursuing someone that I doubt will even treat me with basic human dignity, let alone as a peer and equal.

[–]ThePigmanAgain 1 point2 points3 points 10 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The usual feminist/SJW claptrap. By their own admission the men were going on about women who were smarter than them, not merely smart. Perhaps these men were wise enough to know that the woman already has a lot of power in the relationship -- even without being the smarter one.
