In my experience a woman wants a partner who is honest, faithful, hardworking, and adores her. I want the same thing from a woman.

Ringo says, “Men and women are different, individuals are different, this stuff is complicated, and *nobody* understands it, not even about themselves. All we can do is to be respectful of each other and of the differences and hope for the best.”

IMO that is not mundane, it is wisdom.

I find they like having their hair pulled. Not too hard, but with an accompanying thrusting action.

I think the clue here is that these women are responding with what they *think* they want, or what they *want* to find exciting.

From which point, some men are leaping to the conclusion that they they either must want the opposite (fallacy) or that men know better (fallacy again).

Two rather mundane observations:

1. Novelty plays a role in romantic interest. Some people can, apparently, make obnoxious attractive. Nobody can make boring attractive.

2. It is not necessarily so that if some is good, more is better. Try doing ALL the house work all or almost all of the time and you’ll find interest approaches zero. This is a difference. At least some men seem to have a thing about maids. Women don’t seem to.

Men and women are different, individuals are different, this stuff is complicated, and *nobody* understands it, not even about themselves. All we can do is to be respectful of each other and of the differences and hope for the best.

I organize my books by genre, subgenre, and then book height (when book height is equivalent, I go by author).

Should I be advertising this in a more public way?

Men are different. Men do tend to find the equivalent naked pictures of women titillating. When they send women photos of their genitalia, they are engaging in a sort of sexting golden rule: I think it’s hot, so you should, too.

And men, the corollary is, if you think you are hot, you are NOT.

Seriously, the whole “look at my package” thing is so junior high.

So we can conclude most women want a butler with an incognito penis that might get used if he’s engaged in enough feminiine activity to make him not want to use it.

I’m most apt to get lucky after I’ve changed the oil in the wifes car but at fifty miles between changes it’s getting kinda spendy.

Artfldgr: generalize much about women? Plenty of women and men want mutually exclusive things. Plenty of men and women are realistic about what they want.

now that they are having a problem with having families, which was no problem when they were told they cant work.. they now want to have both… work and family.. nothing makes them be the moth to the flame than a mutually exclusive thing.. tell them an impossibility like “you can have it all” then watch them lose it all trying to have it all.

[and don’t let them in on this and the social engineering stuff, they just get angry at you, not at their reflexive responses (or even take a look at themselves honestly). which is why being a player works… ]

What do women want?

what they cant have…

if they couldn’t have tons of pictures of them at will, they would want them…

look to history..
emperor could only have long nails painted red…
only men could wear pants
only men could die in war
only men had to work and not be with family

its easy to control them..
just tell them they cant have it..
then they will go out and ignore things like STDs, infertility, that people don’t want to drink from a dirty glass.

heck.. goes back to the garden, when god said, you can have everything here BUT that fruit…

want them to give up no their families, tell them they cant have something else… or that people are stopping them. etc.

take the time and you can see the great sweeps of womens history is basically wanting to do whatever is forbidden… and damn the consequences for them and everyone else if they can get to it..
