There is no shortage of good, masculine men who have stellar character and morals. No need for women to look in jails or put up with player types to find a good man.

Betamanlet - I apologize, I meant no offense when I stated that you were feminine. Given your screen name, I had assumed that you agreed with my perception and were even proud of it. Again, I apologize if I insulted you.

The player type, however, is the sort who aggressively hunts for females. THAT is why women often end up with them. They don't want to take the initiative and want to have the guy do the work, they come across a suave, confident man who's telling four other girls the same thing he's telling them.

Then you grow up. Find out how THIS particular guy is--and you get cynical and apply it to ALL men. Because, after all, the kind of guy you're used to is the kind of guy that approaches YOU. So all guys must fit that bill--even though if you approached more guys, your likelihood of finding a "nice guy" is higher.

But, you know, they're kind of boring.

Message boards are for seeking advice, with that advice comes attention. Yes, I have questions and I want them paid attention to. I guess this is attention seeking.

Thats good, I would never be attracted to a Woman who's femininity is so lacking she thinks of men as being a set of "balls". What a perfectly nasty way to refer to some guy that you disapprove of because he does not meet your standards. But perhaps thats is why you refer to your balls. You are not a women you are a guy. Real women do not attack a mans masculinity over whether they ask her out or not. Sounds like a spiteful child being "me me me".

She's the norm though. Most women expect men to do all of the work. She's allowed to have all these standards for what she considers to be a "man", but heaven forbid, you saying anything like "women should be like..." you are a sexist pig.

A sin I have been indulging myself recently with the hot weather forcing me indoors *alas*. Though I selective pick the attention I seek. Hey, you sound like a nice kid so do not take my attention too badly.

So it's completley okay for you to say "men should do the asking out, men should do this, men should do that" but if some guy says "women should make dinner for men" then suddenly it would be sexist?

Not like I'm saying that's what I'd even want, it's just an example, of the many double standards there are.

Message boards are for attention hogs. Who types so no one can listen?

Stupid statements generally do. And what could be more stupid than insulting someones masculinity? People have been hurt bad for doing that to the wrong individual. It is not something that anyone should indulge in.
