Well, then by your standards - I have even MORE real world experience so my opinions should count for more than his!

lol....no reason to get your panties in a bunch. You guys have nothing concrete to debate or talk about, so lets leave it for that occasion. When once again you are left with no rebuttal and proven wrong for the 1000th time, you can go back to talking about what i do or what i dont do.

It's more of a "birds of a feather" issue. Conversely, the clean-cut guy riding the Metro dressed in a suit hangs with the much more presentable wife.

So, "bad boy" and "hot" (which I consider more of an insult than a compliment; ~ cheap) get together, all over the world, it seems.
Riiight because none of us could pooooossibly be HOT . Not that it matters--but come on dude seriously. There is also a difference between just being HOT and being HOT, with values,intelligence, independence...etc. I am not looking for a man to only have the skills to get my panties wet and leave me daydreaming about the night before. I also need you to be a a positive model for the kids we will one day have. That equals being polite and having some respect. That man and that man alone will walk me down the aisle. Everybody won't get a full package deal, but I know I can bc I know my worth. Next.

To be frank, we're talkembout "foot in the door" stuff...recognize that the way people dress and the resultant affectations...well, effect how others perceive them...for good or ill.

...and that can change over time.

Personally, I've drastically modified the way I dress simply because I recognized that it was sending out the wrong message.

So sad. Deep down, you're only saying these things because you dislike the player lifestyle and wish you could just settle down, get married and have a good life...but you can't because good women see right through you so you're stuck with the 'easy' ones. I actually pity you.

Meeeee is the only example I have to reliably work off of. I'd like to think I know myself pretty well and using myself as an example makes the most sense. I'd rather not bring other women into it because I'm not them and I'm not claiming to know how they feel, unlike some posters here.

The same way the OP has called you out on some BS, you might want to stop and think if there is some truth to what he said that caused your feathers to be ruffled.

Just saying.
OP didnt call me out on any BS. His reply to my posts, which he decided to hand pick was "i could agree with you, but then we would both be wrong". How do you debate this type of reply? He provides nothing to really talk about, agree with or challenge.

You aren't talking about anything concrete - you are saying stupid stuff like women don't like polite men, you know what we like better than we do, players are really good in bed, etc. And then you are saying that these are facts! We're just making fun of you because it's easy to do! If you can't laugh at yourself - well, then - not much I can say to you!

Those are the ones that stand out, not the ones dressed 'normally' as most people glance over and ignore those women in favor of the shiny pretty ones.
I hear you, but ON AVERAGE, I would say most women tend to dress provocatively. Let's just look at the amount of women who feel the need to walk around in spandex alone. Why should I be subjected to looking at tight buns when I'm, say, in a restaurant or at the supermarket?

I'm not trying to control how women dress, but if women chose to dress in revealing ways, then don't get mad when guys look. I will also take it further and say that MOST AMERICAN guys are well behaved so there is little worry about guys doing anything inappropriate so I don't understand all the fear and paranoia. It's overblown.

exactly but the biggest difference (about over there) is that the bad boy and the garota aren't heavily in denial about who they are or their value as a mate. What's relaxing about life there is more about putting things (and addressing) into proportions.

I can't say the same for the homeland.
