Well, the add worked the second time.
The movie screening is only $5, and the restaurant where we're grabbing dinner is pretty reasonable from what I hear; this have an effect on the landscape for you? Costumes/T-shirts aren't a must-have either. All you need is an unflagging love of the 'verse and all who travel it. 
Creative Browncoats tend to be amongst the shiniest, and it surely sounds like you fit the bill.
Having a worthwhile pastime is always gratifying.

VerseExplorer, I did not mean to take over...there were shiny new people here, and you weren't about! Sorry!
Not sure about the stereotype...but I do have my Captain tightpants shot somewhere...
No need to apologize. I was joking, and I am assuming you were to since you added the BigGrin.
I agree stereotypes are bad. I don't generalize people, I think there are men that are looking for relationships and not just sex. I do believe that men think of other things besides sex. Although, if a girl approached you and asked to take a photo of your butt, wouldn't you be thinking she's got sex on her mind. Now whether a man would react to that comment depends on a lot of things, but don't you think (if she's at all attractive) most men would be thinking, "She wants to have sex with me."
Well, I think most of the men I know would. I just thought it was funny.Well, atleast you are still willing to share your photo. You didn't misplace it on purpose, did you? We are anxiously awaiting the pic.

Yes, VerseExplorer, I was kidding. But I really am wary of stepping out of line or offending anyone; so I do try to be careful.
As to the taking a photo of my butt...it depends on the situation. If I were dressed as Mal, I would know why they wanted the picture. If it were in "normal" life, I would joke and play along, but would not think they wanted sex unless they either flat out stated that, or were heavily hinting toward that outcome. I am not a first-move-maker anymore...I like to know where I stand with a woman and not jump to conclusions.
As to the photo, I did find it, (actually a back shot of my Mal outfit) but I am not sure it's something that needs to be posted in the Singles thread...

I'd like to defend my sex, but there are alot that give mixed messages. So do you think that's Mal's problem? He's not reading Inara's signals. Is he waiting for her to make the 1st move? He did respond to YoSaffBridge and Nandi's direct approach. Hmmm, maybe.

Actually, yes, I do think that was Mal's "problem". I never saw him as a very subtle man...not that he was brash and unthinking...but he did like to have clear indicators. Inara dod not give him clear indicators, while YoSafBridge and Nandi (*sigh*) did.

So any speculations why Inara didn't? Being a companion she should be able to read Mal, and making the first move would not be a problem for her. Hmmm, was there something in her past? Not mixing business with pleasure? I'm hoping for a sequel in order to get Mal and Inara together.

Wow, I'm liking this discussion!
I fully expect to get jumped all over for this theory (not necessarily by you), but here goes:
I really think Inara does care for Mal, but her "job" as a Companion meant she was able to remain emotionally detached from her clients. I believe she truly loved Mal, and giving in to that love would undermine her control over herself and her future.
I would also love to find out how it ends!

I agree with you. I don't remember the exact quote, but when Kaylee asks her about dating, she said, "It's complicated." There is a BIG control issue in her profession. She needs to be in control.
I know several woman with executive positions where they are in control of everything all day long. These friends have sexual fantasies that are more submissive.
I think she is just hoping that Mal will sweep her off her feet. I almost think that's the way it will have to happen because if she does the initiating, it will feel like another job.

"It's complicated" about sums it up! And I agree, it is about control. I have also heard about women in power with more submissive fantasies...I think the same may go for males, but having never been in a position of really high power, I can't verify that. I never thought about it feeling like another job for Inara...huh! Thanks for the insight!
...I think our discussion may have hijacked the thread...sorry, everyone!
Thank you for that, VerseExplorer! I must be off to bed, though. Hope to talk to you again soon!

I'm 17 single college student, as I've been told about my looks and maturity, "your to young to act that old", I've also been compared to jayne in looks and shepard book by mind. I've only recently come to the knowledge of this site.
