What's so hard about that?



Step into a guys shoes for a little while and you'll have your answer.

What does a man have to do to walk into a room and have every woman in the place want to be with him? He's got to be rich and powerful or influential and definately have a lot of money.

What does a woman have to do to walk into a room and have every man in the room want to be with her? I don't know..... her hair?

Try "not being a chauvinistic asshole".
Or maybe talking to a woman before you say "Hey, I like you, we should run away together." instead of expecting to walk into a room and be fawned over. I don't walk up to random people and say "I dig you." but if I get a few conversations going and smile a lot and get smiled at a lot, then I say "Hey, I dig you."
Really. Not. Hard.
Sure, I'm a little nervous about it, but better to know right up front than torture yourself.
And funny enough, I've never gone for a single high-powered, rich jackass.

Missing my point entirely, but that's okay.

It's just easier for girls is all.

No one does. It’s the single high-powered, rich non-jackasses that make dating-life complicated.

Well, I'll re-post what I wrote on the other multiple thread.

Ready for it?

Really ready?


I despise Simon and I wish he had died instead of Wash, then I could have enjoyed the movie more. It's no surprise to some he's my least favorite. How's that for un-popular?

Oh and Kaylee? Sooooo much better than wussy wussy doctorboy. She deserves better.

Begin the flaming.

While I can’t say that I really think Wash’s death was very damaging to the story, since he was a fairly non-critical character, I do think Simon’s death would have had a much more profound impact on the story, and possible provided something interesting to the whole River the Reaver Slayer arc.

Maybe you get the point, maybe you don't. Who can say? You'd have to walk a mile in a relativley unexceptional man's shoes to truly appreciate what I'm trying to say though.

Not to mention, if a guy's ugly, they're pretty much screwed. They better have one hell of a personality and get a lot of laughs if they're not wiping their butts with $20 bills. They can't cake on the makeup to pretty themselves up like a woman can.

I'm not being chauvinistic. What can I say? I'll be the first to admit that it's a woman's world and were a step away from the shift to a matriarchial society.

I get the feeling you're annoyed by my comments here PR. Don't be that way. I always liked ya.

There’s nothing more unattractive then a guy complaining because he can’t get women.

That being said: Coming from a very poor background I had to compete with other men from Middle to Upper class homes in college for the affections of women from Middle to Upper class homes. Needless to say I felt pretty out of place in college, even though few of the men I was competing with were jackasses. Most of it was in my head. Took me years to realize that what really matters is the alcohol, because in a drunken haze social barriers go out the window.

I dunno, I think this fits quite nicely into the whole "Unpopular Opinions" theme. Even though....

You know what? No. I'm gonna sit this one out.
