To answer your question, I'm disagreeing with you, and what I posted was not a repeat of what you said. Instinctually you may be right to a certain degree, but a very small one. At least in the dating circles of people around my age, which I consider to be between 18 to 25. I don't know what its like to be fourty, and I don't know how much of a role instinct will play then. However, in the circles I've seen, which most people here on gotwoot should be a part of, the instinct factor, biological factor, whatever, is either negligible, or is interpreted differently by just about everyone. If that seems confusing at all (cuz it does to me) what I"m trying to say is that you CANNOT MAKE A CORRECT ALL ENCOMPASSING GENERALIZATION LIKE AS TO WHAT WOMEN LOOK FOR IN THE OPPOSITE SEX.Originally posted by: el_boss
What I meant by "men are attracted by looks and women are attracted by personality". Was that men go mostly by apperance when selecting someone to mate with. Whilst women mostly go by how a man acts and basically his personality. This is of course from a biological point of view, obviously there are people that look for other traits. But as for natural instincs this is what humans go after.
If you want proof of social programming you just need to look as this thread. As soon as Mae wrote something all the guys were like "omg that's so right, I agree with everything". Eventhough she actually didn't add anything to the discussion.
No one had even mentioned anything about unsafe sex.
The word skank only appered once, and wasn't even meant to explain a "slut".
She's actually refering to sex as something a woman gives to man if he plays his cards right. That sounds an awful lot like prostitution to me.
And the whole honesty bit had already been brought up like three times.
As far as how people responded to mae's post, I don't know if it has as much to do with her being a female as it does that a lot of people felt that her post was an attack of sorts on them, which demanded a response. We can't see her so we don't know if she's hot (you probably are, that's not point). i.e "why're you calling girls whore? you're a whore too if you do this" "I'm not calling the girl a whore...", "wait, girls are whores...let me explain..." etc. Basically its the content of her post, not her gender that caused the responses.

You who have enjoyed freedom, who have done nothing to earn it, your time has come. This time you will stand alone and fight for yourselves. Now you will pay for your freedom in the currency of honest toil and human blood."

I was just clarifying that I don't call girls names unless they really are teh ho's. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-confused.gif[/img]
<@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs
The only safe sex is no sex.
then i guess condoms would be a waste of time, huh?

You can still get vd:s even if you use a condom, but the chanse is dramatically decreased. Also the condom could burst or "leak".
The only safe sex is self sex. Well I guees that can go wrong to, as you can read in this here short-story. It's really funny and disturbing at the same time.

Sometimes it takes a differently placed onlooker's comments to really change the dynamic of an otherwise static, similarly minded group's discussion. See the phenomenon of Groupthink.Originally posted by: God#2

Oh, and, I have a question for a one-night stand thing:
Recently I've been informed that I am, well, rather blessed in the nether regions, and some of the smaller girls (and even some not so small, have complained that this, in combination with the fact that I can go for a really long time in the hay-stack dance sometimes makes a girl uncomfortable.
Long story short, I've been advised to buy a thing of lube to keep handy. And last night I just sorta assumed I'd need it, so I whipped it out and the girl was like "what is that?" And i was like "ummm lube?" and she said, "Why, do you like, have sex alot?" (This being my first time with her). And, I said, so as not to freak her but not to be dishonest, "Well, not ALOT, but I guess I've been around." And she goes, "Oh... well if you have lube..."
And just stops.
And the mood is totally dead now, and I'm cursing myself this morning because I feel like this really made me blow it... So.. so.. I dunno somebody just help!
Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".
Groupthink? oh well.
back on topic: dont use the lube.
Jesus masamune why not just be honest? "My dick is big and I have been advised to use lube, but if you don't want it to be involved then just say so."
She'll either
A) Laugh at the scenario (in a good way)
B) Find you to be thoughtful
C) Freak out because she's fucking dumb and not worthy of your company
As long as we're on this topic, and since I dont have *ahem* experience in this area, i might as well ask. Ive been wondering, and i dont really watch it much myself, but do girls watch porn???[img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-shocked.gif[/img] (No terra, this does not include you)
....why are you asking this question?
LaZie made this...a long time ago.

WTF is wrong with you!? How the hell were we in that topic?!
Stop shit posting when people are having accual discussions
@masamuneehs: Thats interesting. The only girls who really say that are asians, and thier small as hell
to begin with. And if you ever say to some girl that lube is neccesary, they'll proberly just start laughing
(In a good way)
For all you awesome people, it's just Phoenix. The numbers are just the amount of times people misspell it.
All girls who watch porn implode and die instantly. Fact.
Hahaha, silly silly boy, there are no girls on the internet.Originally posted by: AssertnFailure

On the whole "One-night-stand" issue, I still don't get why there are so many responses of "Just lie and run dude!", and that's not solely confined to this board. Maybe I was brought up this way and others weren't, but as far as I can recall, before I do something involving others, I'd put myself in their shoes and see how I'd hand someone else doing it to me. Which a lot of people who go with the "Lie and run" method seem to ignore, whether it be social habit or conscious thought.
Put yourself in her shoes.
You just had a fun night with a girl, and she rocked your world in bed. Part of you wants more. You ask the same question. How would *you* handle your own responses? Hmm? $$ says not even half of you would like/appreciate having the same thing done to you. Even more $$ says you won't admit it.
Of course, thinking that way helps you prevent getting into that situation in the first place, but I'm sure you feel that "s3x>j00". Oh well. [img]i/expressions/rolleye.gif[/img]
Perspective is a key function with any social interaction, whether it is family, work, or intimate. Remember that. Carve it on your forehead. Something. If I really have to, I'll come over and beat it into your skull rapidly with an H-mallet. [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-tongue.gif[/img]
<---guy btw.
Screw that, lie and run. People are shit, if you're respectful to them they'll just put you down when the time is convenient for them.
"They call it 'The American Dream' because you have to be asleep to believe it" - George Carlin
Heretic Azazel, even thought it was put inelegantly, has a point. People are selfish in general. I used to think otherwise, but even people who you think are generally selfless will be selfish given the correct situation, and it'll surprise you. The reason for doing things the honest way is not just because you're considering someone elses feelings(good reason though), or because you're too good of a person to lie (good reason though), but because its the path of least resistance. Takes up less of your time.
