Women are not actually attracted to men. There is a vague idea of what a man is physically, and some are better than others aesthetically speaking, but the purely physical appearance of a man is almost inconsequential unless he is horribly ugly or outrageously attractive.

Women are attracted to status, money, how much a man smiles and laughs, how many friends and resources a man has, how full a man's life is--how many "cool," "exciting" and prestigious things he is doing or connected to.

They are interested in how other people view him--how many people want to be around him, how other people interact with him and whether their interactions convey that he is special and amazing. They want him to be extremely outgoing and aggressive, they want him to demonstrate his status over other people by dominating them in various non-violent ways.

A woman's attraction to a man is a function of her jealousy at the thought of another woman having that man. She doesn't care who he actually is or EXACTLY what he looks like physically, she only cares about the VALUE of the life he has constructed around himself.

A woman basically is a greedy materialistic prostitute. Although that sounds vulgar, it's true. She trades her physical self to buy into the success a man has created for himself.

As a man, I fall in love with how a woman is physically. I fall in love with simple parts of a woman. Like the way her hair falls around her face, the line of her neck, her shoulders. They way her ears might peek from her hair. Her eyelashes. The size and shape of her hands, her fingernails. The way she walks, the way she looks when she is tired or annoyed, the sound she makes when she sneezes, coughs, or cries. The way she sits in a chair. The way she breathes while experiencing different emotions. The way her lips move. A million little things.

Sure, a huge part of my attraction is mental, but the powerful seed of love that builds within me and crystallizes is based greatly on visual things that set off torrents of emotion and need.

It seems to me that women almost cannot think for themselves. Their estimates of worth are based on other peoples' estimates of worth. They don't really find an object beautiful on their own. The object becomes beautiful when other people let her know that it is beautiful.


I'm completely unable to reconcile the differences between men and women. It seems like success with women is equal to spending half of your life working to create a giant illusion, something vastly tiring and annoying, while sacrificing your own true self and your own interests. We construct our lives around nest-building. We're like male birds building nests and showing them off to attract mates. It's pathetic. Everything we do is to get women. It is a fucking shit deal.

Someone needs to invent a drug which has no hormonal imbalance side-effects but is able to erase a man's sex drive and attraction to women. It would increase productivity rates to incredible heights. I'd be free and happy. I'd feel complete. I'd be able to concentrate on my biochemistry studying.


Source: Just google "Women aren't attracted to men"

Anyways I feel this persona hit the nail right on the head. Every part of it could have come straight from my mind. Except you'd have to replace biochemistry with bioinformatics.

It put a lot of things into perspective. Chivalry IS dead, and rightfully so.
Not much else to say, just read.

Edit:
Okay, I didn't think most of you would take this thread 100% literally. While it's all up to our perception, I don't think the author is 100% serious. I posted this because whether you agree or disagree, whether the message, in your opinion, is sexist or not, I found it to provide limitless food for thought. A good article is one that has you thinking about it after you're done reading, whether out of distaste or agreement, if it leaves an impression on you I believe it was generally worth reading.

+ Show Spoiler +
The Emperor of Ice-Cream
Call the roller of big cigars,
The muscular one, and bid him whip
In kitchen cups concupiscent curds.
Let the wenches dawdle in such dress
As they are used to wear, and let the boys
Bring flowers in last month's newspapers.
Let be be finale of seem.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.

Take from the dresser of deal,
Lacking the three glass knobs, that sheet
On which she embroidered fantails once
And spread it so as to cover her face.
If her horny feet protrude, they come
To show how cold she is, and dumb.
Let the lamp affix its beam.
The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream


has nothign to do with ice cream, but life in death (amongst other things).

What im trying to say is don't take it too literally.

Of course it's radical; that's what makes it genius.

People thought einstein's early work was radical, pick up a northrop frye book and he'll make just as radical statements, read chompsky and youre headed for a world of controversy. It makes for good reading, see a pattern?

a lot like that article somewhere that says starcraft was created to be a sexist game.

The writer only judges women in terms of their looks, and can't comprehend that women instead often use an entire series of criteria, including physical attractiveness.

In his confusion, the writer mistakes his own issues for problems with women in general, being highly insulting while he does so.

Radical? I'm pretty sure misogyny has been around for over 1000 years. What's been radical is the changes from might = right in technologically developed cultures that has allowed women to fight for their right to vote, to work whatever job they want (if they're qualified of course, and at least in theory), and just generally not being thought of as immediately inferior for no good reason (by at least the male population that isn't sexually frustrated).

Though the point about obsessive nest-building and productivity is interesting, and alot of it may be true, i still think it's very wrong rationally to presume all of these things we observe about women are biologically based when there are such obvious social explanations just as easily as biological. Yes we had seperate roles in life when we were evolving, and it makes sense that we could've picked up distinctive traits as genders during that time that persist today. But if you look at the way we encourage each other as friends, the way traditions get passed down by family structures, the impact of the media on our behaviour and our sense of identity, how can one begin to say without hard evidence whether any one trait or the vast majority of traits that seperate the genders are due to biology, or just a matter of the fact that for centuries men and women have been living in seperate social spheres, criticizing each other and creating an identiy in comparing to each other, and perpetuating all the "values" that we should have seperate roles because that's the way god intended it or it's only proper or what have you.

This thread reminds me of a certain song:
+ Show Spoiler +
You'll have your looks, your pretty face.
And don't underestimate the importance of body language, ha!

The men up there don't like a lot of blabber
They think a girl who gossips is a bore!
Yet on land it's much preferred for ladies not to say a word
And after all dear, what is idle babble for?
Come on, they're not all that impressed with conversation
True gentlemen avoid it when they can
But they dote and swoon and fawn
On a lady who's withdrawn
It's she who holds her tongue who get's a man

Guess which Disney film that's from!

This sounds like it'd help out society so, so much. Especially in certain nations with a massive gender ratio imbalance.

It's true. They may be attracted to your physical appearance at first, but when she found out there's nothing special about you she will back off.
