The male mind, or what men really think about

When he does happen to use it, its a completely different ball game.

so you want to take over the world...

This is so sad. Men are not playthings, nor are women. The perceived "control" you have over a man's sexual desires are still *entirely* dependent on his attraction to you, not vice versa. This, IMO, is not much control at all. At the same time, you are sacrificing your own body (as well as time and energy) just to have a little control over another person - that's really sad.

I agree with the statement that if they aren't pleasing, they should (most likely) go, although I probably agree for different reasons.

By the way, not every man can be controlled by sex.

The rest of this thread is so sexist it makes me nauseous. The main problem is that these ideas that men are one-dimensional and women are irrational keep being perpetuated in the name of humor but are actually quite demeaning to both genders and allow people to feel it's "OK" to fit into certain stereotypes. In some cases, people think it's OK to emulate them.

I'm aware that I can be a bit idealistic about gender relations but I think changing ones perspective is the only way to begin gaining true equality - the problem is, despite what some people say, they don't actually want it.

Crazy, if a relation comes down to controlling the other person. I think it is very shamefull behaviour and degrading. I just hate those guys who hang out in bars and are hanging around every woman's neck claiming to be her saviour.

Macho behaviour is the biggest turn off. I like sensitive man, who will cry when emotions run too high. Who will tell me not to be angry, because his bloodpressure just became very high by me being upset. That is what I want, but I guess I'm doomed never to find someone like that again in this society..

I have got this guy who has been trying to win me over for like.. so many years.. his idea of representing himself? Acting like a macho, saying how much he drinks in weekends, how much fun it is to go to beach vacations and hang out all night. Its a nice person, but common!

well I personally think the purpose of humor is to show the bad habits and to allow people to change, not to feel OK with their defects. Maybe you're talking about kind of people who takes humor to... seriously

Humour is cool, nice and needed, if that's possible to say. But some men doesn't take anything seriously. And humour doesn't get fun at all when you find it really disagreeable or tasteless.

I couldn't appreciate Tsunami's Rules from the male side on page 2.. but Zantra's representation of the Men's guide to what woman really want on page 3 was really funny :)

Now this is a more realistic view of men women and sex. Yes there are men out there who will say and do anything to get laid. But I'd venture to say none of them surf these boards (or maybe I'm expecting too much?;). Gale is bottom line, a young person, and will no doubt find the world a bit more complexed as she gets older.

EDIT: I have to admit Gale's statement really bothers me. It's generally false, but the sad fact is that there are actual mature women out there who have this same embittered, sadistic outlook on men and dating. I pity them more than anything, because someone with this kind of attitude generally has self esteem issues. But it is also this kind of attitude which gives the good women a bad name.

We now return you to our regularly broadcasted fun.

Keep in mind that this thread is bashing both men and women, and it's all in good fun. Men and women both have their pros and cons, and despite what gale may believe, no one is perfect. We have to be able to laugh at ourselves occassionally or we loose perspective.

just my 2 cents...

I fully agree with everything you said here, Zantra. We are only having a little fun in an all-too-serious world. With all the cr*p going on out in the world, we need to take time to appreciate the humor of humanity.
Also, as funny as I thought Gales post was (and I'll be the first to admit my approach to humor has gotten me in trouble way more than once!), I have to wonder what caused her (AND others who feel this way - women AND MEN alike) to take this position and attitude.
GALE! There truly are lots of really good men out there! Take the time to get to know them REAL WELL before you jump their bones. O'Tay? It will be far more worth it in the long run. There is absolutely nothing in the world like true love and the expression of it!

It's funny that you say that- I got it from my significant other. Maybe this is a hint? Or just a forcast of things to come?

I agree with you here. While I would not want to put her down by claiming she's immature, the fact is, that kind of mentality is the hallmark of an emotionally underdeveloped mind. How applicable that is to a certain age range is debateable. I've known plenty of so-called adults who think the same way.

I don't really pity them although I do think it's a sad state of affairs. It's a reactionary view of the world and is not actually based on how one wants to really live their life. If you want to just have meaningless sex with people, that can be done without hurting the opposite sex and/or without having to use them or deceive them about your intentions. The same can, of course, be said for men who have been employing these tactics for longer than women. However, I don't think a reactionary method is the best course of action in any situation, much less as it applies to gender relations. I'm hoping it won't last very long since it appears to be women lashing out. Most people can't hold a grudge for too long and that kind of behavior is emotionally draining and not as satisfying as one would believe. It's also bad for your karma, if you believe in that kind of thing.

I don't see why bashing men and women should be considered fun.. I admit to being more sensitive about these issues than a lot of other people, but the stereotypes involved reduce people to nothing.

Ok...

yes it was my birthday, thanks, no I'm not 18, the day i created this sn i became 17 for life...

yes zantra... I'm one of THOSE girls

Galatea:
don't get too upset. Jokes are meant to be funny... as in haha...
i do not sacrifice my body or time or energy or whatever. on weekends instead of playing tag or ring-around-the-rosie, i seduce guys for kicks, just my version of fun. Oh, and yeah, every man my age can be controlled by sex, you just need to make em realize it first...

Monique:
Yes, many of my relationships are about control. But that's just because i have different relations than most. I don't even date guys or have boyfriends, and when i do, its not a control thing. A real relationship is different, and those are few and far between. Until one of those comes a long, i can't taunt, tease, and toy all i want, long as I'm not hurting anyone, or myself. I don't involve myself in serious relationships, just fun one's, so there's no harm in a little power.

oh and zantra- don't be too disturbed by me, yeah I'm just a kid, but I'm intelligent, informed, and i mean no harm promise. I know there's women out there who are that sadistic, but I'm not. Sides, there's pleanty of guys like that too. Everything balances out.

Tsunami:
i can tell you why some people have that attitude. We're hedonists. The whole world is our plaything! I myself think that there's more to life- love or whatever, but right now that doesn't matter. For some though, they're just ignorant, and can't see past their good time at all.

I'm a teenager, I'm not crazy. I know that there's great guys out there, somewhere, and i'd like a nice sensitive cryer myself, (actually i seem to have a think for geeks and nerds...) but I'm just not worried about finding them yet. Love isn't an issue for me, I'm a kid, that stuff's too serious, why complicate things?? right now, I'm having fun, someday i'll straighten up and fly right... and if not... guys beware!

oh, and i don't know if anyone's really said so, but men and women aren't so un-alike anyways. people are people. human is human. i don't actually even see a huge difference when it comes to gender, women are my playthings too! heh... i just don't think they're as fun...pms and all...

I didn't mean to imply that gale was immature(ok maybe I did) I think she's right where she should be for her age. When I was 17 I was immature- I'll be the first to admit that. And I was twice as cocky . God to be 17 again /sigh

And you're right. I know plenty of older men who are just as immature, if not moreso. Point taken.

It's not so much fun as it is teasing- in a good way. I can respect that you're sensitive to these issues, but seeing as how it's a general teasing, and not directed at you, you shouldn't take offense.

Actually you come across as too nice of a person to be one of "those girls". To truly be that way, you have to lack conscience almost to the point of a sociopath.

Yes 17 year old boys are full of hormones(as are 17 year old girls). There's no harm in fun as long as it's in good taste and not used as deception. Galtea says that that's just the mark of a young mind. Myself, I see it as a pattern of a larger problem. I could go into trust issues, and fear of intimacy, as well as trauma induced fear, but I won't.

When I was 17, if a girl played games, I (and all my friends for that matter) would just say not worth it and go after the girl's friend- maybe times have changed *shrug*. But I also would like to point out that while these kinds of games are "fun", it can also be a pathway to getting raped, if you pick the wrong guy to mess with. Weather it's PC to say or not, it's the truth. Just something you should bear in mind..

I didn't say you were a kid, I said you were young- there's a difference. Yes there are guys like that too. That doesn't make it right. I'm all for free expression, and exploring, and finding yourself. But what you portray is bitterness, which is upsetting.

Just make sure you still can respect yourself when it's all said it done. Deeds born out of malice, bitterness, hatred, and deciet may seem rewarding, but ultimately leave you empty. They are negative thoughts, and thus cannot bring positive results.

I live by the golden rule, but then myself I'm just old fashioned

 

[Gale]

oy, so I'm not immature, just emotionally underdeveloped?? on top of that, in the future i may have even worse issues?? Plus I'm bitter, and i don't live by the golden rule, karma's going to come bite me in the ... and everyone is thinking I'm caught up in some sad sort of state... hmm...

ok

let me just say, i do believe in karma, and that's why i act how i do. i do unto others as i'd have them do unto me. And I'm very very very old fashioned. i do respect myself... a lot, there's a lot to repect imo. And honestly, I've barely any negative bones in me. I find it hard to be bitter, angry, hateful, any of that. Life is meant to be joyous, and so i enjoy it, and help others to do the same, nothing malicious to it.


Well i think so far this thread has established that men and women are at least similar in one way... they all think gale's a bad kid, with issues... kidding, but honestly, men and women are alike. There are certain kinds of both, its a balance thing. BALANCE

Hmm.. Ok I can see this isn't going well. *digs hole even deeper*. I'm not trying to insult you, and I'm not trying to be condescending(ok so far that part hasn't been too sucessful). What I am trying to impress upon you is that your view of men as objects isn't necessarily the most positive one. I acknowledge that some men are guilty of this crime as well, and it's not right in either case. While Karma may allow that because some poor girl is being tread upon, you're allowed to counteract it by doing the same to some poor guy with good intentions. Because believe me, some guys deserve what they get, but the guys you will most likely be interacting with will be innocent in their own right. The long and short is that 2 wrongs don't make a right.

Let me try a different approach. What was that one movie with gwenyth Paltrow where that boy grew up with her, became a famous artists, lusting after her, only to be left hanging, because gwenyth's bitter aunt wanted revenge for being left at the alter? In the end, gwenyth hates herself.

Maybe I'm reading too much into this, but people don't develop the philosophy you have naturally. It's learned. Weather through personal experience or being taught by others, it's not something you just know.

But already I've said too much, so we'll let it rest

Nah. We don't thing you're bad. At least I don't. I don't think I (or anyone else, for that matter) am in any position to judge anyone. (There's way too damn much of THAT going around these days.) But, I can't speak for anyone else. Personally, what I know of you, I LIKE - you're a NUT! I have been through my hedonistic phase as well. I think it's pretty natural - especially when you're young. This was way before AIDS, however. And being the intelligent young woman that you are, I ASSUME you're taking the proper precautions! (I've watched numerous of my patients die from AIDS and it TRULY sucks.) Sorry to sound like a mom. I don't have any kids of my own so I have this semi-occcasional need to 'mom' someone - and my critters don't listen to me anymore. They have all discovered the benefits of selective hearing. (They can't hear a loud 'NO' - but, boy, can they hear the fridge open from the other side of the house!) Anyway, be YOU! And as Zantra ('dad'?) pointed out - be CAREFUL!

I guess I can't find a generation to settle into

My personal opinion: Men are playthings. Meant to be toyed with, teased, and used for pleasure. If they aren't pleasing, get rid of him, one women's trash is another's treasure. Sex is the easiest way to control any man, and every man can be controlled by sex. It doesn't matter if a guy has a mind, more often than not, he won't use it. When he does happen to use it, its a completely different ball game.

don't get too upset. Jokes are meant to be funny... as in haha... i do not sacrifice my body or time or energy or whatever. on weekends instead of playing tag or ring-around-the-rosie, i seduce guys for kicks, just my version of fun. Oh, and yeah, every man my age can be controlled by sex, you just need to make em realize it first...

This is soooo sad it is funny. Reality check: Not every teenage male can be controlled by sex (seriously, it is not that hard to get sex). You are not in a position of power in these types of relationships! There seems to be this notion (I call it "MTV Liberalism") that females are challenging the sexual status quo by taking on the cliché male role. It simply isn't true. Progress is not made in so much as changing the way people act as it is in altering the way they view those actions, and believe me (as a male who knows many other males) your mantra of sexual power only fuels male dominance, it plays into the already existing inequalities.

Maybe that says a lot about society's changes that are taking place in regards to male/female interaction. With the advent of the "metrosexual", males are taking on a more "sensitive" role, while "liberated" females are attempting to take on the traditional male outlook. Personally I feel that it's so far been an abysmal failure. Each side is taking these role reversals to the etreme, so you end up with a bunch of pseudo-gay men, and assertive women who end up alienating males with their man-like behavior. I mean, as a man, I want to be with someone who acts like a woman-If I wanted to date a man, I'd turn gay And I'm sure women get tired of dating men who sob at the drop of a hat and have better fashion sense than they do.


Male/female roles have worked the same way for tens of thousands of years- if it ain't broke, don't fix it

I think we essentially disagree here. Sometimes it needs to be expressed harder in order to push things the right direction. But not all men and women are comfortable have things as cowboy and princess Sugartop either.

I see some angry feminists around, but much more I think I see harry guys with all sorts of crazy harry oppinions, only able to look in the newest mech magazines.

I for one, would love to have a g/f that would love beating me in chess now and then, talk with my friends casually when we have gettogethers, TAKE me in bed nowandthen , and give me good advices in all kinds of things.
Oh, and female bosses are sexy too!

Women, as us men, happily takes everything. If a man has great fashion sense, with all the other good sides, get it on! :)

It's had many scratches. And as the liberal I am, I think it's time we try new stuff.

ps. It's strange to see how many female security guards around in my city, it looks like it's becoming more females than men. I guess women feel more social secure than men, and our town isn't very dangerous either.
It's just so strange seeing so many female security guards. It's almost as you want to do a crime just so they're going to come and get you!

In the news soon it's going to stand something like this:

" Strong increase in female security guards "

and some pages below:

" There have been reported 1000% increase in shoplifting. The Major is very disturbed in that seemingly all sorts of men in all ages have begun drasticly stealing clumsily all sorts of small candy bars and newspapers. "
Then there's some picture in action of a guy taken down by a female security guard smiling harmoniously like he won the lottery.

Head for the hills boys! Norway's been taken over by Uberfrauen and her wild-eyed band of femanazis. Pace apparently was one of their first victims.

Anyways, by the beauty of the women here, I wish I were!

But that second one was a joke... ( ^^^^ Joke too!)
And I would love to be as supportive to her as she would be to me.



What sort of woman do you want anyway ?

What sort of woman do you want anyway ?

well, i'd like a woman with a sense of humor and a nice body. intelligent yet playful. a girl i can relate to, but has a lot of new and exciting experiences to relate to. plus it wouldn't hurt if she could work it in the bedroom...

...oh wait you weren't talking to me??
