A day in the life.




The sad thing is, it really works that way, doesn't it?

Can I come to your planet? Or can you import some of your females to this world? Because that's the way it works down here in Jesusland.

The sweet, intelligent, caring, guys get laughed at, ignored, or get phone numbers to the local delicatessen while the woman goes off with the guy who has the nice hair, the nice car, the fat wallet, or the bigger bible who will then beat them, rob them blind, knock them up, screw around on them and then leave.

I can't tell if you're suffering from "nice guy" syndrome or if you're generally concerned that women only go with assholes.

First off, women really don't choose men that go against their best interests. He's a jerk? Yeah he can go somewhere else thank you.

The reason that women get stuck in relationships where they're forced to tolerate scummy men is because of a culture that says that that's all they're good for. The more educated a woman is and the more open the society is, the less likely they're going to settle for some jerkwad.

And we're also sick of men who play "nice" just to get in our pants. Perhaps the "asshole" is just looking for a lay, but at least he's honest about it. I'm tired of guys who say that they were nice and they bought me drinks and so I should go home with them. If I wanted a lay, and if you wanted a lay, then treat me as a person and be honest about it. You may just get lucky.

As for my "planet" you should visit Toronto some time. All my friends like cute nerdy guys, and don't put up with assholes. Of course we also demand to be treated like people.

what is this toronto you speak of? i've seen lots of bright people of both gender (dsiclaimer: ahem...myself as well) make bad mating choices. some of it cultural conditioning, insecurity or what have you but i also suspect that crotch activating hormones make us stupid. there is a good reason that people know pretty much exactly what you mean when you mention testosterone poisoning.

Well everyone makes bad choices sometimes (myself included), but the thing I'm arguing against is that women ALWAYS go for the asshole. Which is not true.
