Well, its official Im now a single dude. Had a nasty fight with the girlfriend and we are no longer together. At least I still have my true love (The Yugo). Anyways, Im curious, what do women really want from a man???
A big penis, Lots of money, Educated with 3 HARVARD Degrees, A brad Pitt look alike, a six figure inconcome, A gym head. Are looks really that important, or is a "heart of gold" more important??
And why is it that some of the ugliest guys have the hottest girlfriends?? Ever notice that when you're at the mall or walking down the street? These goober looking dudes have a beautiful chick on their arm. SOMEONE PLEASE EXPLAIN THIS TO ME!
Discuss!

GREAT women want someone to be nice to them and show respect.

If you're the kind of guy that notices "goobers with beautiful chicks", GREAT women don't want you.

If you're the kind of guy that calls women "chicks", GREAT women don't want you.

If you're the kind of guy that refers to your girlfriend as "the" girlfriend, GREAT women don't want you.

I'd say you're tough outta luck so tune down your level of expectation.

Check out Tom Leykis's rules for meeting women.

Justin, You have no chance of getting laid, UNLESS you get rid of the Yugo. Women don't like yugos, Hell, I don't know of ANYONE who likes Yugos.

Justin: Women are looking for all the things you listed above. If you have some of these qualities, that's a plus but you're still not their perfect Male.

They want to change and mold you into the Man they are looking for. You'll have to do away with some of your manly traits, making you into a boring person! A person they also find boring now! And that's when they leave you.

They want a "Silly Putty" man. One that they can crush, smash, and mold into any shape they want and also one that will transfer the image of who they want them to be.

I agree with Beano though.....YUGO's ain't chick magnet's! Even a goober with a corvette can score. Think of it like cake, women want a good cake and one with great frosting is more eye catching than one that looks like a three year old made it!

Edit Add:
You need to get yourself a stylin VW Bus with Cowskin seat covers, (they help it Moooove on down the road)! Right BRIAN? Maybe even a Gremlin with the denim interier package, or a John Denver "Oh God" Pacer X! Speaking of John Denver OPB is going to have a special on at 10:00pm this Saturday I beleive if anyone is interested, Check your local listings for the date and time!

So much for the saying, "Yugo, Girlfriend!"

What really worries me here is that if there was an ultimatum as to either her of the YUGO and the YUGO won.....i'd be a little concerned about Timberfakes mental state! You got .25 cent vibrating seats in that thing or what dude?

Nice!

Well, I know my wife wants a partner. That, sadly, means give and take. Yeah, I give and she takes! (both literally and figurativly --however it's spelled)

Seriously, it's all about finding that person that fits. Both have to be willing to accept the strengths of the other.

Honestly, I'm still figuring out things my wife wants! She forgives me for it though. Guess some people have that spark --and it's more than sex. Has gotta be because we all get old and cruddy at some point. There had better be something there when that time comes.

Good luck man, and do lose the Yugo --or at least get a different car to pick her up in!

Thats a good point Missing. We all grow old, and turn into a wrinkled mess with sattle bags galore, droopy boobs on a woman and a non functioning penis on the man. Old age is a bitch, thats why you should marry someone with charector, not a big busty bimbo,OR a brad pit look a like. Looks fade as we age and we all turn SCARY LOOKING!

Agreed 100 percent!

What you probably need to get is advice from a woman. Nothing but men here telling you what a woman wants.

Sorry men, but we are not the experts.

But one bit of advice I will give. Listen. 19 years of marriage has revealed over and over again I have one mouth and TWO ears.

If you want further information there is a fee.

You said it quite well. Open mouth insert foot. In other word's just listen and keep quiet! An occasional grunt so she know's you are there! Oh Yah......you are never right on anything and the sooner you realize that and accept it the easier it will be for you. Resistance is futile....you will be assimilated by the female collective!

I'll make it even simpler. The 3 "A's" I call them.

1. Be Attentive
2. Give Attention
3. Be in Attendance

Here's the short breakdown

Attentive- when you listen be an active listener, ask questions let her know you're listening (this is by far the hardest one)

Attention-do the little things she likes, you'll know what they are because you've been attentive.

Attendance- Don't be afraid to just hang out. It's not quality time...it's simply time together. You can't foster a relationship if you're not there.

Enough of my preaching.

The good ones want the same things men want. When they find each other, it's awesome. It can take some time thogh.

One day, you guys will meet my wife. LOL - oh boy. That'll be interesting for you.

Speaking of that - I may have a plan for the next meet up.

It's getting time...

Chris Taylor hit it on the head, again. I've been married to the same woman for 32 years, and it took me about 1/2 that time to figure that all out. The key for us is we enjoy being with each other more than anything else. I know it wasn't the money, that's for sure.

Thanks Warner.

Justin - many years ago I worked with a guy who told me: "Any woman who meets me and doesn't immediately fall in love with me is a damn stupid woman.........unfortunately, there's a lot of stupid women out there!"

What he taught me was to never attempt to guess "what a woman wants." Just be yourself.

Meet enough people and eventually you'll find a woman who likes the person you really are - and maybe you'll like her, too. And if it doesn't work out, just keep on doing your own thing - be self sufficient. It worked for me - my wife and I have been together for 20 years. And no - long term relationships aren't easy - be forewarned. But don't be afraid. Just enjoy your life each and every day.

Oh - and when the two of you are lolling around in the sack - get up and step outside the room when you need to fart...even if you've been together 20 years. Trust me.

a sense of humor, a nice smile, and about a minimum 17 cm. How many guys will get out their metric equivilants? (I'll guess about 90% reading this)...and most will come somewhat close, if not quite there!

Justin - my wife says, "Even if she told you what she wanted, you wouldn't listen anyways."

(Ok, she's mad at me right now, I admit!)

I swear, we can't win for losing.

Ms. M - yer the resident lady in here, what's your opinion?

There is no answer to this question, all women are different, and on top of that, what they want changes, hourly it seems like.

But hey variety is great.

"But hey variety is great."

You know, I could never get my wife to agree to that concept.

Stop Right There....Go No Farther. You are right on the edge of "To Much Information. Step back away from the edge........don't JUMP!

I think that this is one of those "the grass is greener on the other side of the hill" type questions. I will confess that over the last several years, I have wasted hundreds of dollars on Internet dating sites and "speed dating." The worst was eHarmony, from which I never had a chance to meet any of my matches in person, despite being a paying subscriber of the site for well over eighteen months. The last disappointment was with a lady I met on Match.com. She was a nice, intelligent person, but things just didn't "click."

I think that there are four things that might explain my current situation:

1) I don't have this mysterious thing or things that women are looking for
-or-
2) I just suck at writing personal ads
-or-
3) There is some unattractive aspect to my personality that comes across when I fill out information on personals sites but that isn't obvious to somebody I met in a social setting
-or-
4) The psychological pressure of meeting a woman specifically for the purposes of dating makes me act in a way that is unappealing

For now, I've decided to suspend the Internet dating indefinitely and go to meetin.org events instead. That is not a singles site; rather it is a free web site that lets people organize social events. The stuff on their events calendar is just for fun, and there is no pressure to try to impress anybody.

That eharmony guy in the ads makes it sound like it's almost "foolproof". I thought some of those companies had some sort of guarantee, where you could get at least some of your money back.

Darko- I was kidding, buddy. No, really.

Ya Sure......you were teetering on the edge there dude! You never took the plunge though!

Alfredo, since I've met you, I can say that #1 and #3 are not valid reasons for you. You strike me as an interesting, warm, funny, attractive great guy. I just don't think you've met the right person yet. Maybe I'll bring a friend or 2 to our next meeting...or have a party.

I have a friend (CJ and Missing have met him) who did lots of meet-in events in SF when he moved there, and met tons of great people and had a blast!

Don't ever tell Mr. M that I told you, but I answered one ad in WW that really spoke to me... Thank Gourd it said nothing about "walks on the beach"...the rest is history. The funny thing was that we already knew each other, and were friends from 14 years earlier. I assumed he was gay since he wasn't interested in me when I was a hot thin tan lifeguard. (jk!)

Maybe look at the Nerve personals, they have more music-interested people, it seems.

I thought women liked BAD BOYS with a soft side not noticeable to the general public but behind doors. Not an A-hole, just tough and confident. No holds barred don't give a crap what you think about me kind of guy. Ready to take on the world and kiss all the ladies on the cheek while stepping on the backs of losers.

Or not.

Hey Man....you are who you and and you can't force it. Like "M" said (sounds kinda James Bondish there ay Merkin) the right person has not crossed your path just yet. I was lucky when the right girl crossed my path 22 years ago and that I grabbed hold of her and never let go! It's ben a roller coaster ride for sure but that makes it all the more interesting and exciting as you go!

Forget the personal's, just get yourself a teacup poodle, go to the grocery store, put it in your cart in easy view, and begin to troll, I mean stroll through the store! Women adore a cute little puppy, just make sure if they don't see you to accidentally on purpose bump into their cart!

A tiny dog? I'd run.

Alfredo, I thought you were a really cool guy with a great deal of insight. When we were waiting for the MAX, girls were definitely checking us both out, and you more often than me, so don't feel like a leper. I would be willing to bet that the right combination is out there and not far away. One thing this town has in abundance is beautiful and intelligent women. I mean, we are a well stocked pond. Keep the faith my friend.

Justin. You need a woman with a classic Fiat. Seriously, go find a hot greasemonkey who knows Italian and drives an X1/9 or a Spider of the 850 or 124 varieties. This is the kind of girl who looks good in coveralls, and believe me, if that is true, it only gets better when she grabs a sundress. Ciao Bella! She will help you rod out that orphaned Balkan beasty, and you can cheer her to the checkers out at SCCA meets. Get an Abarth sticker in your window and she might start a conversation at a stoplight tomorrow. Who knows? She could be here already: http://www.mirafiori.com

"Seriously, go find a hot greasemonkey who knows Italian and drives an X1/9"

You've got that right. You needed to be a mechanic to own a X1/9, even when new. We used to put "Lemon" stickers on our co-worker's Fiat. Eventually it was reprocessed from the employee parking lot. Heh.

Screw the pay dating sites.

I've had good luck with Craigslist personals... well, "good" considering the extreme gender imbalance.

Tadc- Which one?
personals (15428)

strictly platonic?

women seeking men? (looking)

men seeking women? (advertising)

misc romance?

casual encounters?

Inquiring minds need to know!

barter?

Believe it or not, all of the above, and no I'm not talking about call girls.

I actually ended up with a LTR from the strictly platonic section... some girls don't know what they want I guess.

Personal ads suck. Warning MAKE SURE YOU READ THE FINE PRINT!
Was on my way to meet a girl who sounded like she had a lot in common with me. I was so excited to meet her. Right as I was about to leave the house I glanced closer at the ad and at the very bottom, (AND I KID YOU not) the bottom of the article read
"Controlled herpies". OH Ok at least her herpies outbreak is controlled. Now I feel much better!

I have never, never understood why people advertise that! I think it's weird.

If you never get close to being intimate, or even having that second cup of java, it's irrelevant and waaaay TMI.

If you do end up starting a relationship after a few dinners, etc., or are just contemplating jumping in the sack, then isn't that the time to make an informed decision about having sex? I mean, if it's a hetero boink, you're already discussing birth control, right?

You can probably get Herpes faster and easier from somebody who doesn't tell you...or they may not even know themselves yet.

And like they say, if you've ever contracted an STD, you just as easily could've been infected with HIV.

Condoms, people, condoms!

Ive seen HIV postive Ads for an HIV positve person, wanting to meet an HIV positve partner. But boasting to the world that you have controlled Herpies is a bit odd. Its almost like she is bragging!
"Hey Ive got herpies but guess what, they are CONTROLLED!!
If you're meeting someone from a personal ad, make sure that you are planning the first date.
How about Dinner and then a trip to the clinic for an STD test?
How ROMANTIC!!!!!

There are two times when a man doesn't understand a woman - before he gets married, and after he gets married. Today, men are more confused than ever about women. In my dad's time, if a man was a good breadwinner, if every night he came home, had a martini and watched TV all night, then went to bed, he was fine. He would have been considered a real "catch".

Man is no longer king of his domain. He's now supposed to be an equal partner -- and a good listener, too. He must to be strong and sensitive at the same time, an impossible task. Admit it, guys, you've been in this double bind. If you cry, you're a wimp. If you don't, you're an insensitive jerk.

Blindsided by the escalating emotional demands of marriage, we guys wonder how love became a no-win proposition. Come with me on a journey into the murky waters of modern male-female relations.

The guidelines for being a good husband used to be simple: provide a good income, protect hearth and home, maybe mow the lawn now and then. Now wives still want all that in a mate -- and more. Today's wife wants a confidante and soul mate, too. Now the job description has been expanded to include listening and that least measurable of skills, empathizing.

Men have long wished that relationships came with written assembly instructions, complete with a parts diagram (like those that come with your kids' bike or swingset). Insert part A into slot B, and there you go! Intimacy achieved. Done! Let's have a cold one and watch that NASCAR race.

If only that instruction manual existed. If you are serious about your desire to be a good husband, you have to start attending to the "little things". While they don't mean much to men, they are very important to women. A first-rate marriage is like a first-rate hotel: expensive, but worth it.

If you have been married for even a few years, you should have the most basic of little things mastered. There are certain things that a good husband must be able to do without fear, like opening jars, killing spiders, and mowing the lawn. Some common "little things" that many women appreciate include:

Don't Wash My Sweaters.

You know where the garbage can is, please use it.

Please brush your teeth, women like that.

Never say "no" to your wife.

Phyllis Diller appreciated this: Never go to bed mad. Stay up and fight.

These details are the baby crawl stage of the "little things" women want today. But women want more. Remember, in the world of romance one single rule applies: Make the woman happy.

If you really want to put your wife first, then you have to talk about the things that interest her! What's that? You don't know what her interests are? You're catching on!! You have been so self-centered that you don't even know what your wife is interested in. Shame on you!!

Special is how your wife should feel, and it is your task, as a good husband, to make her feel special. Don't forget her birthday. And - just as important - don't forget your wedding anniversary. Don't buy her a vacuum cleaner or an ATV for Valentines day.

To help your wife feel VERY SPECIAL, pretend you're not her husband, pretend you're her best girlfriend (in text messaging lingo, be her BFF.) When your wife tells you her problems, she isn't necessarily looking for a problem solver. (Insert A into slot B, and there you go. Intimacy achieved. Done! ) She wants someone to listen to her and empathize with what's going on in her life. She'll tell you every detail, every nuance of her life. You need to just listen. And empathize.

A husband who hears about his wife's problems instinctively wants to come to the rescue. But most of the time, this isn't what your wife is looking for. You need to fill the role more of a therapist than that of a problem solver. Listen to her problems; show concern for those problems; show that you have empathy; but don't always reply with, "Here's your problem, here's the solution. Honey, what's for dinner, anyway?"

Women, I beg you for patience with your husband when they try this empathizing for the first few times. You know how, during the day, when you sometimes think about certain deep, complex "issues" in your relationship? Then when you get home, you want to "discuss" these issues? And during these "discussions," your man sits there nodding and saying things like "Sure, I understand," "That makes perfect sense" and "I'll do better next time"?

Well, we don't understand. It doesn't make any sense to us at all. And although we'd like to do better next time, we could only do so if, in fact, we had an idea of what you're talking about.


At the end of the day, remember this: Wedding rings don't come with magic powers.You don't need magic, to have a long, fulfilling relationship. To keep out of the relationship muck, just remember this: treat your "significant other" with love, respect, and unselfishness. It doesn't hurt to read insider tips in Psychology Today, either.

My X Wife was a wretchid old hack. I tried to be a good husband, I tried to understand her feelings and all that CRAP, but after a while I got so damn tied of it. She was so needy it drove me against a wall.
It was all about HER and HER feelings. Getting rid of her was the best decision I ever made.
Getting a divorce sucks! To all you guys out there NEVER GET MARRIED!! ITS NOT WORTH IT!

Hey buns, if It makes you feel any better, You probably have a smoother "Hair free" set of legs than SHE does.

I saw a middle aged guy driving in a red Mercedes convertible today, with the top down. The vanity Oregon license plate said "NO WIFE" LOL!!!!

Andrew

NEVER married and NEVER will.

That road does have a lot of bumps and curves in it for sure! Sure beats the flat and straight road. It's always more fun to caress the curves and wander through the mountains whenever you want! At the end of the trip it's always pleasureable to finish up in the Valley!

Now There's A Hallmark For YA! HA

Roger.....you got that written down? I want a commission on that one dude!

I didntmarry until I was 30, but I wouldnt trade my kids and grandkids for anything. Sure I could have a lot more personal toys, but watching my kids on Christmas morning beats heck out of my owning a corvette.

Wobboh, BINGO!!!

Did Mrs. W sneak on here and write that? If not, she's a lucky woman. You've answered the thread title question better than I ever could.

I just forwarded it to Mr. M., so now I feel like I need to forward you a check or some flowers or something...I think that was worth more than a few sessions of marriage counseling or reading a Dr. Phil book.

Now Im curious, Ladies, does package size really matter on a man??? Does Bigger mean better????
Id love to get some feedback from Mrs. Merkin, Djsheryl, and other ladies on this board.

"Does Bigger mean better????

IMHO, No.

It's not the size of the ship it's the motion of the ocean!

Jeff Foxworthy

Good to know Merkin, I'm glad there are women who don't think bigger is better!
Djsheryl whats your take????

Justin- I'd be a bit surprised if DJsheryl will answser that question.

Mrs. Merkin: When Mrs. W. saw what I wrote (I wrote it as a speech for Toastmasters a couple weeks ago), she told me, "You're kidding me! You don't do ANY of those things!"

She thought I should have stayed with my original speech theme: "How to be a jerk". But that speech draft was boring, irrelevant and immaterial. . .

package size does NOT matter

I don't care how great you are in bed
If you're a DICK, your tool will be left high and dry by me

Women THEMSELVES don't know what they want. They will tell you they want someone who's home every night, makes a good income and then jump on the bike of the nearest badboy AND when it goes wrong, of course it isn't THEIR fault. They will tell you looks don't matter. This is an outright lie. The only difference between men and women on this one is men are honest about it. If looks don't matter, then why did so many of them pine after JFK jr? This is why I gave up on women, I just got tired of them saying one thing and doing another.

Women are Hypocrites! Sorry ladies, ITS TRUE!!!
Anyone who says looks don't matter is FULL OF SHIT!
LOOKS ALWAYS MATTER!

Women want a good looking Badboy who will rough them up, smack them around and Knows how to please a woman in bed. MOST guys are Clueless on how to please a woman in bed.

beano, you're finding your women at the bottom of the gene pool. take your head out of the dumpster and look elsewhere.

Beano.....was that you I saw on the way to Cougar the other night.....you on the way to Tanya's place or what? Hey....I need a hub cap for a Chevy....she got any to spare?

Beano, you're wrong; a GOOD woman worth getting to know doesn't want that at all.

Of course "Looks matter", but everyone has their own idea of what "look" appeals them. I personally always had a thing for big guys with receding blond hair, and/or nice big thighs, which I never noticed, but a friend pointed out. I ALWAYS have a thing for guys with nice long hair (not WITH the receding blond hair because that would be a mullet), like Sayid on "Lost", I told one of my friends that I thought he was the hottest thing on TV and she about gagged. The McDreamy/McSteamy dudes do nothing for me, as did JFK Jr. My friends and I used to call ourselves the "Chicken Club" because we all liked different parts (and looks).

I have so many single friends (women) who are smart, active, interesting and fun; but they're not hot 23 year old babes. (OK, a couple of them ARE) None are even chubby (uh, like me). Most are in their 30's or early 40's. They all have great careers, travel, and own homes, and are into all kinds of cool things. One likes short guys, one likes golfers, they're all into different types.

And yet they never meet anyone great, and I just don't get it. Maybe I need to have a party?

Mrs_M, I'll bet you could charge $20 a head for a party with this crowd and your friends!

Andrew

Oh that reminds me - Merkin - I owe you 20 bucks.

No, you don't. Eddie Izzard makes us even!

Oh yeah.

Cake or death?

I'll take cake Sir.

(owner of 5 izzard dvds here!)

You're lucky I'm Church of England!

That pretty much describes most of the 80's and 90's hair band members and how they look today!

Besides the "music", The eyeliner, collagen pouts and tight pants with codpieces kind of make me feel all sick inside. But I have this friend...

And big thighs? I thought all those guys had skinnier thighs than most 12 year old girls, I can't imagine a single one of them wearing shorts or even swim trunks.

Do you have a flag?

We're out of cake. Death?

I have invented a manuever.

This would be a pretty good deal, considering that admission to a Cupid.com speed dating party is $35.

On a slightly related note, two weekends ago Dr. Dean Edell made a brief mention of a study wherein single women were asked to rate their preferences for men based on the career fields in which these men worked. They were also asked to describe why they preferred men in one career over another. The women in the study ranked carpenters and plumbers over accountants, lawyers, and doctors! Some of the women indicated that they perceived the accountants, lawyers, and doctors as highly stressed, committed to long working hours, and conceited.

"What do women REALLY want form a man????"

I'll get back to you right after I figure out what came first....The Chicken or the Egg!

Anyway is there really an answer to either.....take a litte read and see if this makes sense:

What Do Women Really Want?
(Sshhhhhh! Come closer... this is a Cosmic Secret)
by Dana Peach

I am now going to reveal to you what women want, have always wanted and will always be looking for in any man with whom they become intimate. It is a "Trump" attribute, which means that its presence is a more powerful influence than others and can tip the scales of emotional acceptance in your favor immediately.

Be advised that I will be dealing with a monumental but accurate generalization which is not meant to apply to every female who ever lived. I bow to the variability within and between the sexes. Nonetheless, you will see that my assertion has the undeniable thud of the obvious.

If you feel the cold chill of disbelief or the fever of indignation rising in you at these words, please consult with Woody Allen, a cunning expert at attracting beautiful talented women on the sheer force of this "Trump" attribute which draws women like... migrating butterflies.

What women want from men is confidence. The Trump is Personal Confidence.

Confidence... not arrogance, not dominance, not one-upsmanship, not useless bravado, not macho heroics. Women just love truly confident men.

Now as you know, confidence is an attitude thing. In particular, male confidence frequently manifests as an "I-can-handle-it attitude". This does not mean that feelings are denied. It doesn't imply an absence of doubt, fear, or vulnerability. A delusion of total self sufficiency is not required.

Confidence simply says: "I can deal with it... somehow... well at least I'll do my best". The attitude of confidence doesn't even have to be constant, just generally present in the face of most life challenges.

For hundreds of thousands of years of human development, a confident attitude was much easier for men to gain and display than it is now because it was required for survival. There was hardly any choice. Until recently, the demands of physical survival were the primary issue in pair-bonding and confidence-building roles for both sexes directly related to survival were far more apparent. I am not talking about survival in extraordinary circumstances, either. It could be as basic as steadfastness in getting the crops in out of the rain.

In the smaller communities in which we used to live, everyone could see the skilled hunter, the dedicated farmer and stockman, the courageous protector, the skilled artisan, the accomplished leader, the sage teacher, the men who didn't give up in the face of threatening set-backs.

Why hell! There have been times and cultures where a women wouldn't even consider a man who couldn't claim to be a good carpenter or a competent dirt mover. These roles, decreed by harsher realities of life than most of us now experience, were obvious advertisements for male virtue, i.e., "I can handle it".

Unfortunately, the signs indicative of genuine masculine confidence are confusing today and gender roles are a chaotic mess. The external demonstrations of natural confidence have become confused with the poor substitute of consumer status symbols. But... women instinctually look for clues to a man's level of confidence... and test it to the limit... but not in the old-fashioned way.

Now for the good news! Since confidence is primarily an attitude toward meeting life challenges of all kinds - and there's no shortage of challenges in the world - the essential attitude can still be cultivated and demonstrated. But it cannot be faked with money, looks, or possessions.

Willingness to face important struggles is still the ultimate key to a woman's respect. In contemporary times, a man may express this dynamic in many conventional ways. He can show his confidence integrity through competence in his work, education, sports, hobbies, child rearing, or doing home improvements. Actually, we can include here any thing which involves mastering a new learning curve and overcoming ego uncertainties.

Now, if a man really wants to do some crash confidence building these days, he can try still the old-fashioned approach - and many do so.

He can expose himself to more risks and bigger risks: jump out of a few airplanes, compete at martial arts, skiboard off of snowy mountains, lift weights, climb sheer cliffs with only the strength of his fingertips for security, take on dangerous political controversies, start an unusual new business with more enthusiasm than capital, confront and influence provocative teenagers, or spend days in the wilderness with only his tom-tom for company.

But we all know perfectly well that these are methods not character outcomes. It is not the specific activity that matters, what matters is what goes on in the man's head that makes him feel some sense of Mastery.

Or... a man can cut to the bottom line, avoid physically and financially dangerous experiences, and go for The Really Big Risk... the ultimate emotional challenge. He can work directly at becoming more confident with women themselves. That's riskier than cliff climbing, anyway!

Although a woman likes to believe a man is willing to deal with a lot of things, what really counts is that he is able to deal with her. A healthy, mature woman resists impassioned commitment to a man who is afraid of her sexuality, her intelligence, or her emotions.

This means gaining confidence and empathy (unavoidably stuck together) in approaching and relating to women on many levels, in the face of rejections real or imagined. And since this is the riskiest venture of all, the pay-off is, appropriately, the biggest: the devotion of a loving woman who can make your life extremely pleasant on a daily basis. Confidence with women in general - beautiful, plain, smart, nice, mean, old, young - every kind of woman - is an unavoidable social skill which can and must be learned if what you want is the greatest intimate relationship of your life.

I thought this a very interesting article. Heres the source if you want to explore further:
http://www.sosuave.com/articles/want.htm

Hmmm.

And I was going to say that women really want a man who could spell the word "from" as f-r-o-m and not f-o-r-m.

HEY! That ones not my fault. I copied and pasted the thread title. Blame Timberfake for that one!

GREAT! According to Darktempers article, Women like us ONLY FOR OUR "Tools". WELL, I've got a big one, Time to whip it out. LOL!!!!

Too bad you have no nuts with that tool Timberfake! (cue rimshot)

What do women really want from a man??

SPERM, that can actually SWIM! We're sperm donars, thats all we are.........(sigh) I feel used!!

I heard the craziest ad on the radio the other day, it was saying how boys might become obsolete, and women will only be having girls! YIKES!

I have it...the answer to that age old question...."Which Came First, The Chicken or the Egg"

Well Duh....the Rooster had to CUM first!

Is Dana Peach a man?

(S)he lost me at Trump and Woody Allen. Barf.

You know....it's to bad women don't have rattles like rattlesnake's! You hear that sucker going off and freeze in your tracks. Danger Will Robinson, Danger, Danger, go no further!

Duck and Run!

Seriously, sadly he shot and killed a UT cop today while he was taken to a MRI appt. Why do prisoners get to have MRIs? Then he went to Arby's (!?!) with the cop's gun where some hero tackled him after he took another shot.

And the community was stunned, there were no obvious indicators that this man would become a problem to society! Friends and neighbors said he was a quiet neighbor.....always building things late at night in his shop. They thought he may have been into metal sculpture as he worked with pipe a lot!

Denny, I just KNEW you would take the case!!!

I would make a terrible attorney. I would not get along with those I knew where guilty.

When the judge would say for the defense to present opening argument's i'd say: No argument from here, guilty, he did it, please proceed to sentencing!

Does size matter? Here's the answer: (PG-16)
