Don't get me wrong, I'm all about chivalry like holding the door open, taking out the chair for her, etc. When it comes to paying for things or giving gifts or whatever, however, it should always be 50/50. A lot of women seem to think that they should be pampered by their man but don't have anything to offer themselves.

Yeah, it's ridiculous. The women who think they should be pampered are usually the same ones who think they are being oppressed by men.

Remember the big scary vultures in Florida. We would walk to the pool and they'd move from house to house when we were not looking, it was creepy.

These birds were black and quite big with massive wings. I actually ran inside everytime I seen them, I thought they'd chase after me. We don't have vultures, it was the first time I seen them.

Lol random story, was just thinking about birds and remembered how creeped out I was.

Exactly!!


And the same women who seem to get with the douchiest guy they can find, and then complain that men are jerks.

Maybe they are jerks because are the most attractive and have an inflated ego. Ironic, considering how much feminists value characteristics of women other than appearance. I guess the same standards don't apply to men.

I guess. A lot of women think I'm attractive and I don't go around acting like a jerk to people. I think women go for jerks sometimes because it gives off a false sense of confidence, while it really means the opposite. People who act like jack asses to everybody do it because they need to feel better about themselves...basically they're weak, insecure people.

I've often wondered about this. I've become a lot more confident in recent years (but not extremely so) and I've noticed that people tend to more attracted to me now. But I'm not sure if there actually are more people attracted to me, or if it only seems that way because I'm more confident.

Women like confident dudes, that's no secret. Also people in general tend to congregate more with people who are confident than not. Who wants to be around someone who's constantly whining that they can't get women or that they're ugly or whatever?


And then there's people who give off a false sense of confidence. Bullies and douchebags are perfect examples of this. They're usually loud and obnoxious and pick on people and it comes across as confident, but it really means the opposite.
