Do you really think women are that shallow?
Some are and some aren't. Asking about someone's in depth employment history in the way that Defiance describes is a prime example. And that's up to you if you think that's 'shallow'. To some people it's a legitimate concern. Maybe they've had lots of failed relationships because they are that sort of career orientated type and they don't think it's a good match or maybe they are simply shallow gold diggers.

If you actually took the time to read and digest his posts you'd know that wasn't true because it's pretty apparent he is looking for something more serious and he's said many times that personality makes a big difference.

I took from that because he's a young black male who is being stereotyped as a player when he acts a bit more confident. What's to wonder about? Defiance can correct me if I'm wrong.

Well if you understood anything about PUA you'd know it's very much about treating women as human beings. The whole point is that a lot of guys go wrong because they put women on pedestals instead of relating to them as human beings. If it takes a logical reasoned approach by using science to get these guys to be able to change their bad habits then what's the harm as long they aren't hurting anyone in the process?

It's pretty obvious you have some warped ignorant view of PUA and what it entails. Next time why don't you actually spell out your specific criticisms rather than just typing some trite mindless insult?

More complete crap! Absolutely not! If a PUA'er treated every woman as the same they would get absolutely no where!

This seems to be a very commonly propagated myth about PUA

Actually a mutual friend used to purposefully tell girls that he worked in McD's or KFC and his job was to put the cheese on top of the burgers. He had an ok job but used this for a laugh. The girls would ask him and he'd drop this and they'd laugh while trying figure out if he was serious. And if they asked again he'd stick to it. It worked really well and always got a good reaction. Exaggerate and make it comical. Tell em you have to stick the sesame seeds on the big macs with tweezers or something

Incidentally the job/employment questions never came up again and often it would become a running in joke. If you get a woman that turns her nose up at that then she obviously has no sense of humour so that's no loss.

Default Re: Do you consider yourself attractive & sexually desirable to the opposite sex?

these analogies amuse me, i shall now pretend i dont have a clue what your on about so you have to keep thinking more up!


-anyway

it seems in my recent hibernation ive returned to 5 pages of if you dont have a job thats another minus point to being less desirable (scribbles down on paper)

I suppose if a woman is looking for a proper relationship, something that they want to last for years then i guess its nice to know about potential partners career/job status....however ive never ever considered it myself, if i was interested in a girl i wouldnt care if she was unemployed either (well unless she was proud of scrounging...) , i think for me i would currently say im doing some freelance design work...while looking for a job (which is true tbh, although ive worked out im on about 10 pence an hour so if they are gold diggers they came to the wrong place )

also easily impressed 18yr olds..local college , right! what do i do, flash them my JSA papers? my learner drivers licence? or perhaps my very low limit/very hammered credit card?

tho honesty, although i guess it makes sense, the fact some people out there consider jobs such a huge thing (actually..the woman i used to work with who was obsessed with money ditched her ex because he was only on 16k a year..so yeah) well they are not the people i want to be with!..bloody..harsh though

wizard sleeve

'The inner labia of a vagina that protrude well beyond the outer labia. So called because they are large and stretchy and flap in the wind like the silken sleeve of a wizard's garments. The presence of a wizard sleeve gives the vulva an appearance quite different than a coin slot and usually means the vagina is not a peach.
I went down on her, which was nice, but her freakin' wizard sleeve kept getting in the way!' - urban dictionary

I have a problem with the use of such references on this forum. This is supposed to be a supportive forum where we can discuss our anxieties, many of which concern body image issues, not a place where people carelessly use cruel slang that pokes fun at perfectly normal body shapes and sizes It is a sad, sad world where women need to worry if their labia are the right length or not

I remember watching a documentary in disbelief, it was about some silly boot getting surgery to get hers reduced
Apparently her friends teased her about it. Do many girlfriends show each other their pussies then ?

I am very sorry If I offended anybody, it was merely a throw away remark and a joke about Harry Potter which went a little too far. The last thing I meant to do was upset anybody.

Oh, I wasn't saying you had, just saying a lot of people do. I don't mean it in a particularly shallow way, but for example, older men messaging young women and expecting to get somewhere.
well, i'm only interested in older men. any guy under 30 messaging me would probably be wasting his time..

It's true that on dating sites older guys message much younger girls who aren't interested. I remember dating girls in their 20s and they all said that even though they might have their limit set at say maximum 30 odd (on their profile) they'd still get a shed load of unwanted messages from guys 40 to 50 plus.

Don't take it badly mate. It's a very very common experience for the average guy (regardless of SA) on internet dating sites. You have to realise that you are 1 in a 100 guys chasing one woman. To be frank internet dating sites are useless for men, just imho obviously

A 50 year old winning the lottery would certainly get a lot of attention from under 30s

tbh I don't think they expect to get anywhere, they just live in hope and don't really care. And some younger women will date older men, so maybe that's another reason they chance their arm?

Yeah well that about sums it up! They don't care, they are just trying to act out some little fantasy thing. They see the Ronnie Woods of this world hooking up with 19 year old cocktail waitresses and they want a bit for themselves! It's so easy to do on the internet.

Don't know about that. Depends how they get rejected too. If someone's rude to you then I could see that being a factor, and maybe they don't care but then their egos can't handle the rejection. It's happened to me before, I got rejected by someone I wasn't even really that into but it really bugged me in a 'How dare they!' sort of way. Stupid but then that's human nature

Who's they? All older men who go after younger women? I'm sure plenty do move on to someone else, I'm sure many are going after as many as they can at once, mass emailing the same copy and paste message to each and every one within a 100 mile radius.

And your example was of married 40 year old men who contact you. Do you think they are after a long term relationship with you or a bit on the side? That's what I meant about don't care. They don't care about you as a person, they get annoyed (if they do) because they don't get what they want.

Ok I'll agree that they do care, but I guess we'll disagree on how much they do. I honestly don't think that the majority are all that bothered. I'm saying that because I know as I have myself got older I'm far less bothered by what others think of me and I always wondered why it was that naturists always seem to be wrinkly old people and came to the conclusion that they just don't care any more. Same with swingers

I just find the whole thread anxiety provoking. The question it self is something I feel people with SA should avoid bigtime. I guess at the moment I am just trying to enjoy life and if someone notices me, or catches my eye then so be it. Having SA, of course I have anxieties but Im trying to focus on the ones I can influence and bin those I have no control over. Its a struggle I admit. Think I will postively avoid this thread from now on.
