Guest American Woman Posted September 30, 2012 Report Posted September 30, 2012 So even if I'm living with a woman I'm single, eh? News to her, I bet. If you haven't been living together for at least 12 months in a conjugal relationship, then yes, you are single - which would be good news to her, I bet, since it would mean she's still single, too.

Moonlight Graham Posted September 30, 2012 Report Posted September 30, 2012 Lol, you guys rae hilarious. What do you think men should do stare at their feet or at the cieling for fear of glancing at a womans chest? This is just silly. I take a split second to check out her chest when she's not looking and when she walks away I check out her ass. Who cares. We all do it it's human nature. I catch women checking me out all the time. Like I said it's human nature to desire attractive people. Exactly, that's what I do too. Nothing wrong with a quick glance and then looking away. Everyone does it. Argus still brings up interesting philosophical points that should be discussed. This isn't some trivial matter brought up by some perv. We are sexual beings, the instances in this dilemma (looking at the opposite sex sexually) are confronted almost everyday by everyone. We should question what the appropriate acceptable behavior should be rather than blindly accepting the norms society has brought us up to believe. Maybe Argus is the Martin Luther King Jr. of men looking at breasts? Quote "All generalizations are false, including this one." - Mark Twain Partisanship is a disease of the intellect.

Moonlight Graham Posted September 30, 2012 Report Posted September 30, 2012 Women love to be stared at. But only by hot men, or men they may be attracted to. That is the problem. 1) Be Handsome 2) Be Attractive 3) Don't be unattactive It's been confirmed on many occasions through various discussions of women. "I hate when guys just stair at my breasts... unless I like the guy." "It's so creepy when guys stare at me, unless I think he's hot" This is true, and it's why women can be full of it sometimes. How can a woman be angry or offended when they dress sexy in order to attract cute guys but instead also attract ugly/creepy guys? No it's not fun, but unattractive/creepy/gross men have every right to look at a woman who wears obvious cleavage and short-shorts in order to look attractive. Want it to stop? Wear something less provocative instead of playing the sexual harassment card. Quote "All generalizations are false, including this one." - Mark Twain Partisanship is a disease of the intellect.
Moonlight Graham Posted September 30, 2012 Report Posted September 30, 2012 Oh, this is hilarious. The reason there are so many single women in their 30's is that they choose to be single - because they have more options available to them than women have had in the past. Women are marrying later, having kids later (or choosing single parenthood if they don't want to automatically marry if they become pregnant), building careers, traveling - ie: living their own life before they choose to settle down and live the married/parenthood life. In other words, they are single because they like it. There's lots of reasons why women are single in their 30's, same as there are many reasons for men being single. Some are divorced, some maybe had a long relationship in their 20's and recently got out of it, maybe they're too busy with their careers, maybe they're not a "1 partner for life" type of person, maybe they don't like the concept of marriage, maybe they're unattractive/ugly/annoying and can't find a mate, maybe they're too picky, maybe they have attachment/commitment issues, maybe they're complete a-holes to the extreme, maybe they're sexually attracted to children/animals/inanimate objects, maybe they're too shy to meet people, maybe they aren't allowed to get married to the gender of their choice by law in the area they live in, maybe they travel and move around frequently etc. etc. Quote "All generalizations are false, including this one." - Mark Twain Partisanship is a disease of the intellect.

Well, you said (in the post I quoted) that women choose to be single, and are single because they like it. I'm saying that isn't necessarily the case.

cybercoma Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Are you for real? Nobody is talking about guys shoving their faces into a woman's cleavage. They're talking about noticing an attractive woman, and being condemned for it. Sometimes I wonder about the social skills of some of you people... See. This is what I'm talking about. How would anyone know the guy has "noticed" an attractive woman? If he merely "noticed" her, then she would likely be oblivious to it. If he's being condemned for it, then it certainly went beyond "noticing" and into the realm of making her feel uncomfortable or worse. Quote
Michael Hardner Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 How would anyone know the guy has "noticed" an attractive woman? If he merely "noticed" her, then she would likely be oblivious to it. You know, it strikes me that we have an opportunity to use the forum's featured anonymity to ask questions we couldn't ask in public. For example, would the ladies of MLW mind if they were secretly being 'noticed' at work ... as long as it wasn't noticed that they were noticed ? Otherwise, should we all be cleansing our minds of all inappropriate thoughts or can we still be humans ? Maybe this question isn't even appropriate, I don't know. In any case, I'm wondering how you feel about this... would you rather just have men put their thoughts away, or merely hide them ?

Notice the guy glanced down for a fraction of a second. However, the woman noticed it. Putting aside that it's a satirical video, what is your opinion of that particular situation? Quote

Guest Manny Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Well when I talk to people I don't tend to keep my eyes constantly locked on to theirs. I glance around, occasionally making eye contact but also occasionally looking elsewhere. This is in fact normal behaviour. Problem is if she's really hot looking, it's hard to keep ones eyes purposely away from those areas. Everywhere else is allowed. There's places we cannot look. Quote

I'll never forget the time I was driving down the harbour with a boat load of tourists. We were driving past two bustling fish docks amidst a good flow of vessel traffic when a sailboat skippered by a late 60 something gentleman motored on through. On deck were two matching blonds in matching bikinis busy readying the boat for sea. It was like one of those pregnant pauses in which time slowed...deckhands and shore-workers alike stood and stared...other boats barely avoided colliding with things and the seeming spellbound silence was only broken when someone had the presence of mind to yell out, "you lucky bastard!", to the grinning skipper in the cockpit. I felt compelled to suggest to the ladies standing beside me that "maybe they're just his grand-daughters" but "no" they replied, "he's just a lucky bastard".

Probably just some guided sailing adventure. It's always like that, a grizzled old guide showing some young people a good time, for a hefty price. Hardly out of the ordinary. Quote

It seemed too staged, the ladies were clearly putting on a show, bending and stretching in ways that were as unnatural as unnecessary on the deck of a boat, as unnatural as the poses scantily clad 'mechanics' assume on greasy calenders you see hanging out in the back of a shop. It was most definitely out of the ordinary. Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

And then they post the pics to facebook too. But yeah I wasn't there I suppose it could have been "something out of the ordinary". But there's literally dozens of boats with attractive young women in bikinis meandering about in the harbor outside my house all summer long. Quote

I never thought of men putting their thoughts away as an option in order to speculate what my answer would be. K, no I don't mind the thoughts as long as they don't infringe on my life. But in a perfect world, and completely within the context of this question, if I were the big "Creator" of this earth, men's fantasies about women would be based on mutual respect and esteem. Unfortunately, I don't think there is enough of that. Just answering honestly. Quote It's kind of the worst thing that any humans could be doing at this time in human history.

Mutual respect and esteem are what a lot of real relationships are based on. People fantasize about what they don't/can't have. That's true of women as well. Why do you think books like Fifty Shades are so popular? Quote
Guest Manny Posted October 1, 2012 Report Posted October 1, 2012 Actually women need to respect themselves a bit more. That's where the real problem is. Quote
