I think it is so sad they people are judged more for their looks than they are for the person that they are. Weight can't be lost , but a cold nasty heart will never change.
Shallowness is getting out of hand in todays society.
Could that be why so many people are whining and moaning about being lonely?



Thank you HB , I personally would not even want to be with a man than judges me on my looks alone.
I was married for 30 years and when my weight went up and down my husband never noticed. He loved me for me.

Now I would not settle for anything less.


Wise words! Wish more people thought like you. The world would be a better place. flowerforyou

What are you expecting from your date, when you find Her/Him. :wink:


Who the hell knows?!? scared

My last date involved a guy taking me out for a steak dinner. Expected to have a nice meal, some intelligent conversation. Until he spit his teeth out on the table and informed me that he didn't eat with them in. Do you know how hard it is to try to have an intelligent conversation while there's a set of teeth on the table staring at you? The dude looked like the cow before it hit my plate when he was gumming his steak to death! surprised ill

Needless to say there was no second date and I have learned to expect the unexpected now. :laughing:

To answer the question, I wouldn't expect but I'd simply want it to go well enough that we'd both want to see each other again. And that he doesn't spit his teeth out. That'd be a good start. :thumbsup:

I notice there are more average/below average looking guys on here than there are handsome ones. So you'd think all the birds would come flocking over to me but the exact opposite is the case. So the question is why? I'm just guessing here but do you think my striking good looks make women feel intimidated?


Well aren't you a rocket scientist to go along with those striking good looks! You're awfully observant to notice that there are more avg and below avg guys than above avg guys (aka handsome) on here. It's that way outside too. You do know how averages work don'tcha? Say 30% below avg range, 40% is the avg range, so 30% above avg. Now avg and below together is 70% so yup, that's more than the 30% above avg range. You're a friggen genius to figure that out! That's probably why the birds are intimidated, not because of your striking good looks. whoa

Whatcha want with a flock of birds anyways? They just rain poop in my experience. But if that's what ya want, good luck. May a flock of birds swarm your handsomeness everyday!! :thumbsup:

I can empathize. flowerforyou

Do not stop caring. The world would be a lesser place, and like you said, it seems these days it's getting harder and colder out there so we really can't afford to lose another sweet person to the dark side. Us caring folk are a shrinking lot. We need you Cali! Don't go! sad :wink: laugh

But seriously. If you were cold, you'd never be able to enjoy those beautiful kids you have that love you so much. Or love anyone ever again. Or appreciate anything of value, and I'm not talking monetary value. You wouldn't be able to live with yourself. You're sweet. Stay sweet and caring. It suits you well. :thumbsup:

I had no clue what to put for the weight question when I saw it. In whose opinion? Mine? Society's? Men's? Crystal Fairy's? :wink: laugh

I've been called skinny, fat, athletic, average, and anything in between depending on who you ask. So I used this for an unbiased opinion...

The Hamwi formula uses calculations based on frame size and sex to determine ideal weight. The Hamwi formula puts the ideal weight for a medium frame 5-foot tall man at 106 lbs. and a 5-foot tall woman at 100 lbs. For each additional inch higher than 5 feet, men add 6 lbs. and women add 5 lbs. Men and women with small frames subtract 10 percent from the calculations and those with large frames add 10 percent. *

*Frame determination: Wrap thumb and index finger around wrist. Easily touch=small Barely touch=medium Not close to touching=large

According to this formula, my ideal weight would be 135lbs at 5'7". If average was ideal, I'm probably a few extra pounds which is what I think I have listed now, although it could be listed as average since the average woman in the US is not at her ideal weight. Plus my weight has varied by 10-15 lbs between average and a few extra pounds over all the years I've been here and I don't know when I last updated my profile. I'll go fix it if necessary after I post. I don't want a personal reprimand from anybody for putting the wrong thing. whoa

I don't know what men judge me as but I do know I have no problem getting laid so I could give a crap what average is or if I'm below or above it in their eyes, or anybody else's eyes for that matter. As long as I'm getting a piece of tail from my man and he's happy, I'm happy! bigsmile

I agreed with Isaac's statement in its entirety, not just that one specific part, although I have to agree with him there too. Biology and genetic studies have shown that men have a higher muscle mass to fat ratio than women, in general. Men have more advanced spatial mapping than women. Women have more advanced sections of the brain that deal with emotions than men. These are facts based on years and years of research, not merely opinions. It was evolutionarily advantageous for us as a species to be this way.

Men were the hunters and needed strength to venture far from home to get food, hence their superior physical strength and mapping abilities 'cause they damn sure needed to come back or everybody starved. There wasn't a McDonalds on every corner. Women were responsible for raising offspring which required her to have larger stores of fat to exist off while sharing the nourishment she was receiving from the man for the child. There wasn't a bottle of formula sitting on the PigglyWiggly shelf next door. Sure times have changed and we are all evolving thanks to technology and modern advancements, but biological changes take hundreds if not thousands of years to manifest over many, many generations.

Men and women are most definitely built differently, biologically speaking. Men in general are build for physical strength while women are built for emotional strength. The attitudes may be changing but the human body will take much much longer to catch up, biologically speaking. Doesn't mean either sex is better than the other. We need both to keep the human race alive after all! :thumbsup:

Yes it's personal growth, but personal growth is part of the bigger picture, a more overall process of change. And yes, everyone goes through this process his/her own way, at his/her own pace. But overall there is a difference between genders.
I don't see how ppl can keep coming up with the argument that one gender is better. Maybe think why YOU interpret it that way, cause I don't.

Judge not ... and in the same breath say it's hogwash, lol

What about this, for ppl who don't agree I'll make it a hypothetical statement:
Woman had the opportunity to grow, evolve, become more empowered, because men helped us do so. While we were/are growing through all these processes, they held the fort, made sure the world kept turning and basically kept a framework intact to keep things stable and going, while we were experimenting, learning, sometimes kicking up dirt to find out what was underneath and so on.
If men hadn't done that, our growth, change, would not have been possible.
Meaning men supported women, it's teamwork. This is mostly not a conscious process, it seemed to just happen, but it's part of this bigger process.
Now roles are (about to) reverse, meaning men will have the opportunity to grow, evolve etc. while we women support them, hold the fort, provide a framework for them to learn.
As we've already come far, we are able to better support them, so men might go through their change much faster than we did.
It's NOT to do with better, superior, not at all. If you can see the bigger picture, it's just a wonderful process all of mankind is going through and men help women and vice versa.
If both genders would have entered this process simultaneously, this would have let to utter chaos and neither would have had a proper opportunity to grow and evolve.

As women were in an inferior position when this process took off, it wouldn't have been feasible, if at all possible, to have men be the first to change.
In the end it doesn't matter which gender was first or last, it's NOT a competition! It is about evolution of mankind and the best possible way to achieve this.
It's quite patriarchal (which is the old way that we've been brainwashed with for over a thousand years) to think one gender is better, that's exactly the way of thinking we need to dump.



In response to the bold statement you made above. Did you not see the space between the paragraphs? huh

I said "Judge not lest ye be judged" in response to your statement from the original post, and I quote: "Many men still have a lot of skeletons in their wake, don't understand the concept of inner strength, or they do understand it but don't have a clue how to achieve it.". You can't judge somebody's inner strength. You just can't so that's why I said that.

The hogwash statement is separate, hence the change to a new paragraph and not in the same breath. That was said in response to your blanket statement that women are, and I quote again from the topic title, "more advanced" when it comes to personal growth and development. Is it better to be more advanced or less advanced? So you kinda implied that women are better than men because they are more advanced, whether you meant to or not. And apparently I'm not the only one that read it that way or you wouldn't be receiving some of the responses you have, from both men and women coincidentally. You didn't really expect everybody to see it your way did you? That doesn't sound like very advanced thinking...whoa

Thanks Missy. flowerforyou

Well said Isaac. I too see that men have had to evolve a great deal, first for the women's revolution to even occur as you stated, and secondly to deal with the consequences of it. Is it harder to learn how to work outside the home or how to nurture a child with love and patience?

Women have come a long way in becoming more man-like if I may, supporting themselves and/or their families financially, becoming physically stronger, and learning to push the limits of what they can accomplish on their own. Men have had to become more women-like, learning to express emotions and become more sensitive and caring towards others while still appearing the pillar of strength. If a woman cries, she's seen as emotionally in touch with her feelings. If a man cries, he's seen as a wuss. If a woman builds a fence, she's a real go-getter. If a man does it, big whoop, he built a fence. Who's got it harder when it comes to change then? Women have grown physically while men have grown emotionally. It's harder to lift someone's spirits than to throw a bag of dog food over your shoulder. Perhaps not the perfect analogy but I think I've made my point.

Why is love so difficult to find,but easy to say?!


I don't think love is difficult to find. Look in any mirror. It's inside you. It's a gift you have that you give to others. It's not something you can go out and search for. It's not rare. It's everywhere. You see it everyday, even if you don't recognize it for what it is. That old couple walking hand in hand down the street...that's love. The mom pushing her child on the swing at the park...love. That guy you see outside working in the heat all day, wiping the sweat from his brow...that's love, the love he has for his family that propels him to get up and go to work that day. Love is shown in so many ways, little ways that we don't always see.

I'm guessing it's easy to say because there are so many kinds of love and we like to express how we feel regardless of the emotion. I tell lots of people I love them...my family, my man, my friends...and I mean it whole heartedly to each although I obviously don't love them all in the same way. Love is too complex and vast to think it's just a word or that it has just one face. I see love everywhere because I focus on loving myself and loving others and I recognize it for the treasure it is. :heart:

Personal growth and development can only be judged on an individual level. Trying to determine whether one gender surpasses the other in the matter seems a bit outlandish. Every person grows and develops throughout their life. Some are forced to start from the depths of hell and rise far. Some are born into the lap of luxury and fall down before learning to rise from the ashes again, if they're so lucky. Some opt to stagnate while others embrace change. Gender matters not. It's PERSONAL growth. How far one has to travel on their individual journey depends on many factors...what life throws at them, the amount of physical, emotional, and spiritual strength of the individual, of their support system in life, and of society as a whole.

How do you judge somebody's inner strength? How does one know whether another possesses this trait without knowing what they have faced in their life? You can't possibly know nor see what they've endured or overcome in their years on this earth. We all must possess inner strength in some capacity or this cruel and chaotic world would eat us alive in no time. Strength, whether physical or inner, varies depending on the individual. The difference is you can look at two people and see which one would probably have more physical strength...a 90 lb female isn't going to be able to bench press what a 250 lb male will in most cases. Try to judge inner strength between the same two individuals...can't be done with a glance. So how can anybody say whether somebody else has or doesn't have inner strength?!?! Judge not lest ye be judged...

My gender is better than your gender at [insert whatever here]...blanket statements like this are just pure hogwash regardless of which gender is speaking or what you put in the box. Personal growth and development isn't gender specific, it's an individual's perspective that can't be judged by others. Just my humble opinion. shades

We are going to have to call you {{{{missrighttiming}}}

"Timing is everything" (I can see in your future)

So missright is sitting at the sox game for
the World series, game 7 a man sitting
close by struck up a conversation,saying
isn't it strange that one of the best seats
in the house is empty.
misswright explained that's where my husband has sat for the last 35 good years but has recently past.
well the man passes on his condolences but has to
ask "it's a shame that you couldn't have brought a friend or a family member. misswrite replies, " well normally I do but they're all a the funeral.
:wink:
Yes timing is everything! The sox won by the way:thumbsup:



Your sight is a bit fuzzy on this one I'd say, except for the Sox winning it all hopefully! :banana: bigsmile :banana:

Mistake number one...you see it taking the Sox 7 games to win the world series. huh

Secondly I've never had a husband, nor will I ever have one. The thought of getting married is as horrifying to me as the thought of Dustin Pedroia in a Yankee uniform! shocked ill And 35 good years? Geez, how old do you think I am?!? Don't answer that! laugh

Lastly, I wouldn't be so cold hearted to skip my man's funeral. I would most certainly put the fool on ice and hold it 'til after game 7 and the Sox victory parade. It's the other part that stops working temporarily. :tongue:

Yup Pony, timing is everything, so time to get back on topic. offtopic oops sorry OP flowerforyou

Timing is everything.

If he asks in the middle of the Red Sox playoff game, well the answer is a resounding no. During the season, it depends on the opponent, inning, score, and who's pitching for the Sox. If we're playing the Yankees...definite "Not now honey, after the game." flowers

If it's during a football game or Bruins game, that's what they make halftime and intermissions for. bigsmile

If we're home, then the answer is generally yes, yes, and oh yes please! (except for the previously mentioned Sox related automatic no :tongue: ) :banana: love

If we're out at the movies, on a dinner date, or dancing in a bar, well maybe not right that second, not going at it like rabbits in the middle of a restaurant, scared ...but I'll give him a raincheck for when we get home, or depending on how many drinks I've had, on the ride home. pitchfork :angel: :laughing:

A "lover" already implies you're engaging in sex with your partner. The only issue here seems to be the "when he/she asks for it" part. For me, it's all about the timing. :thumbsup:

I started getting gray hairs in my early 30's! scared

I thinks there's a HUGE gender difference in the perception of gray hair. Men get gray and they're considered distinguished looking while women go gray and they're just considered old looking.

Proof: hair dye sales. For women, it's through the roof, evidenced by forty-two shelves of hair dye boxes at your local Walmart. Mens' hair dye sales are meager in comparison, mostly one tiny section of Just for Men Touch of Gray. A few vain men might not want to be totally white haired, but they leave SOME grays if they DO dye their hair. Point is, men and women don't seem to mind men getting and looking older, but men and women both seem to mind women not necessarily getting older but looking older.

I personally do nothing about my gray hair. I don't dye it. Did once (on my head only!! :laughing: ) and that toxic crap killed my hair!! Swore I wouldn't do it again. I don't care if I look older, I embrace it. I don't care if some guy passes me up because I have gray hair. I want a guy that's more concerned about what's UNDER my hair than what color it is. I am what I am and I don't try to change that. No boob job, no colored contact lenses, no Loreal "I wanna be a blonde" in a box. I'm not a blonde. I'm an old gray haired chick with blue eyes and little boobs. Take it or leave it. shades

Still thinking about thinking and why I do so damn much of it. I think I got a thinking problem. think what frustrated ohwell

Try Thinkaholics anonymous..
I try to think as little as possiblebigsmile


I'm pretty sure they haven't actually started that particular group yet. They're all still sitting around thinking about it. laugh

I try to think as little as possible too. Except I fail miserably. The only time I succeed is when I replace the thinking problem with a drinking problem. However the thinking problem doesn't land me on my arse with a broken foot so I opt for that choice most of the time. I'm off the crutches now though so I see an end to the thinking problem on the near horizon. bigsmile :laughing: drinks

The Sox game starts in 20 minutes. It's the playoffs. As a diehard fan, I'm going through pre-game preparations. Showered and clothed in Sox shirt and lucky Sox ballcap, check. Also must make sure I have eaten, peed, and walked the dog as I won't be bothered for the next 3 hrs while the game is on. I have warned the boyfriend that if he wants any loving, he has fifteen minutes to get it done. So now I wait...

wow..but u dont wear underwear ?


huh

I have added bold lettering for you, not that I really wanted to highlight this little fact. blushing

Or perhaps you're unaware of what a g-string is?? It's a kind of underwear, so that would be an affirmative, I do indeed wear them under my clothes! Usually...winking :angel: :laughing:
