I don't like how sex obsessed most men are. It's sad that they measure their self worth by how much sex they get. Really sad. I don't like male aggression, because it's usually unjustified. I don't like how men are more prone to stereotypes, such as acting out the role of a man instead of being oneself.
But some women measure a man's "worth" by how much sex they're prepared to give him.Either way, its just a game- they prove, women think they "award". Its amazing how much women seem to be impressed by how much a guy canfight.And sometimes the fights are for some bimbo to live in a nicer house. Hmm, I think men are less prone to flashy materialism etc amongst close friends, than say feeling they have to do it for women's preferences.
Well, at times women mistake aggression for confidence. I think that it takes a whole lot more balls to step away from a pointless fight than to engage in one.
I've found that the most vermin-like scumbags who'd glass their supposed friends are loved by women. Many women strangely treat confidence and a snidey type of violent mentality as the same thing. But I grew up in towns full of scum. Separately,I've always felt that hitting *some* people is doing society a favour.
Other than batty boys,I don't think I've ever met a guy who'd say he preferred female to male company. But many girls prefer male company. Case closed
Most of my husband's close friends are women. His best friend (besides me) is a woman. Some men just love women and can't get enough of their company.
Actually I've been thinking about that. I'll tend to spend time in bars,football, going to sports events and stuff.Very "male" things. But male friendships I find are often extremely shallow.In the past, they've come and gone and I often haven't worried over them. Whereas with my female friends I actually talk properly with them.And feel more connected with them, closer in many ways than my male ones.Altho I spend less time with them.Even tho in say a club, I might spend more time talking to them than the guys. What I should've said is that its unusual for a guy to just have a main female circle of friends and no male friends.Whereas u often see girls with a male circle and next to no female friends.Dunno.
Plus my female friends tend to be exes of some sort, or often girls I would've had a relat with them but for some prevailing factors. Girls there is sometimes that "unfathomable" factor.Maybe their new boyfriend wasn't happy with our friendship, or something else.Any fading of a friendship with a girl, I've always taken to heart, much more than with guys. Guys are very predictable.But I've seen girls seem to get icy overnight, in comparison.
I love female company for some things and male company for others. Just depends on what it is i'm in need of.
Yeah my work is very male orientated world. Sometimes I think of Friday night and its "nope I don't wanna spend all night talking about boxing, football and all that work stuff". Male circles, particularly in big groups, the culture can be sthg I need a regular break from sometimes.
i don't agree with that. guys just don't realize how competitive they're being with their toys, appearance, stance, attitudes. i think mainly they're just not very self-aware.
Maybe I'm just not as good at turning my brain off as you I agree, and really, this should be the ideal of manliness a father(or mother) teaches his(or her) son. However, I'm going to have to agree with the guy with the complicated name that women perpetuate the stereotype by going after those sort've men. In both sexes there are the people that are their own, and the majority that tries to act like and like the things their sex is supposed to. It seems to me the best way to change things is not to work through the majority, but to teach the new majority the new ways. So, all we have to do now is become media moguls =D
That's because confidence = conceit. I think confidence is a harmful concept. Much like self-esteem. It's usually confused with the lack of insecurities and a compensational demeanor. We're social beings therefore insecure and self-aware. End of story. I like self-respect better. Self-respect implies a certain unconditionality toward oneself. And it implies that you respect even your flaws and insecurities. Anyway, that's why I always say --- confidence is just a cute apologism for social manipulation. And social manipulation will get you pussy; much like illicit activities might make you rich. But what if what's most authentic in you at a given moment is fear? Or nervousness? Who gives a fuck what women without self-respect (the ones that like "confidence") want?
I'm going to go off topic and say that I think men usually have far better taste in music than women do. (and I know I'm a woman... jeez)
