This defense shield is "evolved" to combat unwanted advances, usually in urban areas. Men wear it too, on the subway or on the bus when there's that strange homeless guy talking about flying llamas to himself sitting near them. Modern, urban society just isn't conduicive to people going around being open.

Yeah, I figured as much, but it doesn't help the approachable factor and with most men including me being scared of rejection from the start, it makes it even harder for us to put in the first attempt which is what most woman want more of from men which they arn't getting, then they get confused and mad at us and etc..etc..etc...

And people wonder why online dating is more popular, it bypasses all this

Maybe those guys are really women who are pretending to be men?

But when it comes to committing..................they go back to the POF and the BBPM.

Maybe that's ALL you want? A live body sitting across from you over at Vinnie's Pasta House? A pretty girl to be seen with? A handshake or a peck on the cheek is fine with you? Maybe one of them throws you some free sex once in awhile? That's ok with you?

I want a wife and I'm not finding a wife in this sicko town.

try being honest-its a virtue woman look for and appreciate

I just dont understand any guy posing as a woman on dating sites


you cant be a snake, and expect to attract a butterfly

To those slamming us for 'experimenting', it really was out of curiosity but out of desperation. Fake profiles are annoying, but there's a difference between those who get their sicks from it and those who just do it as a one off for awhile. Not that I need to justify myself anyway. I've done it and don't need to do it again. I just needed to see it for myself.

That's what the face is for. A woman who is wearing that face does not want to be approached at that time.

Adding: Some women do seem like they never take it off.
