Women

[Torrid]

[quote name='future girl][size=1'] My advice is keep your dick in your pants and everything else is forgivable. [/size][/quote]


Couldn't say that better myself. I'm not big on physical attraction, nor do I want a boyfriend. I've been cheated on three times and I've had enough. I just want a friend that makes me laugh once in a while and is fun to be around. I don't give a **** about relationships anymore.

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][SIZE=2][COLOR=RED]LETTER FROM GOD TO WOMEN,

When I created the heavens and the earth, I spoke them into being.
When I created man, I formed him and breathed life into his nostrils.
But you, woman, I fashioned after I breathed the breath of life into man
because your nostrils are too delicate.
I allowed a deep sleep to come over him so I could patiently and perfectly fashion you.
Man was put to sleep so that he could not interfere with the creativity.
From one bone, I fashioned you. I chose the bone that protects man's life.
I chose the rib, which protects his heart and lungs and supports him, as you are meant to do.
Around this one bone, I shaped you.......I modeled you.
I created you perfectly and beautifully.
Your characteristics are as the rib, strong yet delicate and fragile.
You provide protection for the most delicate organ in man, his heart.
His heart is the center of his being; his lungs hold the breath of life.
The ribcage will allow itself to be broken before it will allow damage to the heart.
Support man as the rib cage supports the body. You were not taken from his feet,
to be under him, nor were you taken from his head, to be above him.
You were taken from his side, to stand beside him and be held close to his side.
You are my perfect angel.....You are my beautiful little girl.
You have grown to be a splendid woman of excellence,
and my eyes fill when I see the virtues in your heart. Your eyes......don't change them.
Your lips - how lovely when they part in prayer. Your nose, so perfect in form.
Your hands so gentle to touch. I've caressed your face in your deepest sleep.
I've held your heart close to mine. Of all that lives and breathes, you are most like me.
Adam walked with me in the cool of the day, yet he was lonely.
He could not see me or touch me. He could only feel me.
So everything I wanted Adam to share and experience with me,
I fashioned in you; my holiness, my strength, my purity, my love, my protection and support.
You are special because you are an extension of me.
Man represents my image, woman my emotions. Together, you represent the totality of God.
So man......treat women well. Love her, respect her, for she is fragile.
In hurting her, you hurt me. What you do to her, you do to me.
In crushing her, you only damage your own heart, the heart of your Father,
and the heart of her Father.
Woman, support man. In humility, show him the power of emotion I have given you.
In gentle quietness, show your strength.
In love, show him that you are the rib that protects his inner self. Love GOD.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

So women exist solely to "support" man and practice "humility"?

Well, that's [i]one[/i] way to get your windows smashed in, I suppose. *disapproving eyebrow*

[Kamuro]

luckily I'm not retarded enough to tell a girl shes only on this earth to practice humility lol, I appreciate the poem, however, someone could definitely take it the worng way, good intentions, bad result

[Gelgoog Pilot]

Well...I can see how you would THINK the poem means that...but it doesn't...only fools would actually take it the way. No offense to those who have though. I said long before the humility bit, that they were made to stand beside us. I believe this also, and hell I think my g/f is stronger than me and supports me...she'll say the same about me. Thus the term better half is used when talking about them.

I think, what the poem meant by humility was that it was intended to be the opposite of pride. Which of course is humility or humbleness. Don't think because you support man that he doesn't support you back. Or Don't think that you are better than him because you are equal. Not, humiliate yourself to support your man...that would ruin the entire poem up to that line.

Sorry, although I found your comment funny Godelsensei, its basically just you adding some remark to which you know nothing about or just breifly read the poem. Read it more carefully next time before you chose to interpret stuff like this.

Afire...congrates on the poem I loved it...thought it was a bit too long at first but...I did actually enjoy it...and that's saying alot since I nrmally don't enjoy poetry Thanks for sharing it. :animesmil

[Kamuro]

Gelgoog, narrow-minded... :animestun . The poem was fine, but it was interpreted differently by different people. Just because we thought it meant something different then you doesn't mean we're wrong, your right, and we're stupid for thinking of it that way. Next time, just post your opinion rather then busting on the people that posted before you, sorry, but its annoying to open a post and find more of your opinions on everyone else rather then the actual subject of the thread.

[Torrid]

Sounds like one of those email poems that a zillion people forward to a zillion more people.


Not that it's bad. *tries to stay on subject* There's nothing mysterious about women that someone hasn't allready figured out.

[Afire]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][SIZE=2][COLOR=RED]Humbleness is not humiliation. It is to [B]not[/B] put your importance 'above' or 'below' anothers. True humility is an equalizer in a relationship. Without equality...someones going to pay or get paid. Without equality there is no love. If it's not free...then it's not love.
It takes true humility to give or receive anything freely...especially love. If you think about it; in the consummation of love between a man and a woman; the womans pretty much on the receiving end. Without a receiver for his love a man has nothing to give. With a receiver...he has everything to give.

I don't think the word 'support' in this letter means having a burden. In true humility;
encouragement, help and approval are equal between a man and a woman also. True love creates a balance...not something that spins out of control. God is Love.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

As afire pointed out I was merely trying to give you a clearer definition of humility...since...some were not useing it correctly... I could care less if you saw it as someone putting girls down...or if I was wrong...I just felt that automatically stating a negative opinion would cause everyone else to do the same...I'm sure you're much smarter than that...but I've been here a long time...and trust me there are some pretty stupid people who post here. I do however enjoy the critisism lol you intregue me in that respect.

And going off topic...meh...I do that I'll admit it...but that's what discussion is about...not only the primary topic but somewhat related topics...otherwise discussion wouldn't be as fun...you'd need not return to this tread because EVERYONE would respond to the same topic and most of them would simply agree with others views....

[Kamuro]

The basis of Afire's post was just as I said, an opinion. Did she write the poem? If not then all her comment was was speculation, as was mine. We both did the same thing, except we read and interpreted the poem differently, just like others did. It just got to me that you felt it necessary to ignorantly criticize those you simply disagreed with. I understand your criticism, it just seemed, harsh? I don't know, I just think that if you really wanted to enlighten someone, or express your opinion so that others might understand, you wouldn't do it so bluntly, it just didn't seem necessary.

Anyway, I'm glad I intrigue you lol, and I thank you for your thoughts on the original subject as I do everyone else.

[Iron_Inuyasha]

I try not to get into relations...even though its against my religon to have any contact with girls... :animecry: Well oh well..i try to keep away from this as much as possible, but its interesting in a way... :animeknow

:animeswea Yeah...I do get blunt once in a while...not the best of weeks...anyways...yeah I suppose I shouldn't go ape on everyone who doesn't see it the same way.

It was an interesting topic...I think I made one like it some time ago...eh...I still have problems...not that they are more mysterious...but rather...eccentric...sometimes....very eccentric.... :animestun

Yes! That is Gelgoog's final word on women...and I quote..."Women are eccentric"

[Afire]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][SIZE=2][COLOR=RED]LOL.... I didn't write that, and it probably is one of those internet email poems that a zillion people forward to a zillion more people. I thought it was kind of cool and did have truth to it... that is if you don't change the meaning of the words. Anyone can interpret something another way if they change the true meaning of a word.

It's not narrow minded to interpret something according to the true meaning of the authors words. To interpret something by changing the meaning of words is like handing yourself a lie...or twisting the authors meaning to fit your interpretation.

You'd be better off reading nothing, than understand what an author is truly trying to say. You should read it as it is meant to be read. You can form your own opinion about the content of it after.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[Kamuro]

If you didn't write it then how can you tell me what the true purpose of the poem was? I did exactly as you said, read the poem, and interpreted it as I see fit and because it was interpreted differently then you, apparently I'm missing the author's true meaning? Unless you can find the author and have him tell me the true meaning of the poem, then its open for interpretation, any interpretation. I wasn't even that adamant about the point I made about the poem. If you read my first post after the poem you'd see I was just agreeing with someone else. However, I do defend the freedom to interpret the poem however I choose without someone who didn't write the poem, or have any say in it, tell me I'm wrong. How do you know your not wrong? You could very well be arguing a mute point and putting words in the author's mouth of your own opinions.

[Tatsubei Yagyu]

I don't know why (not to brag :cool:), but I seem to attract ladies quite well. It's not like I do anything forced, or try to make myself look cool, I just do. I was told by a female friend of mine when I asked her, "Why do you like me?", She answered, "I don't know, it's just the way you act. Your nice to everyone, you help your classmates, even if you could get in trouble, you speak what you think outloud REALLY loud, no matter how retarded the thought maybe, and I've never seen you frown the whole time I've known you." I didn't really get what she said, because she didn't really answer me, but I deciphered it in to," I'm a freakin' nice guy, who lives the way he wants.

But, in the end. It's near impossible to know what girls want... inless your the girl... :animestun

P.S., She's not my girlfriend... :animeshy:

[Juu]

[size=1]Well, as has been said, every person is different. One of us female members can't speak to represent all girls on the planet.

Some girls like the arrogantmachomuscularbeachtannedoverconfidentprettyboywithanIQequivalenttohisage type, some prefer the ohhI'msilentstuckupandhaveanemofringeandpretendIhavenoconfidencetogetlaid type, some prefer the whole arrredmeatb33rfootballbaggypantswhereImightaswellwearadressthehelldoyoumeanbyabelt type, some girls prefer the whole oMgImsOPiMPbi7ch3znh03zbLinGbLiNggaNgsTuH type, some prefer the heyI'msexyandIknowitI'llbeyourfriendfortwohoursthenyousleepwithme type, some like the playinghardtogetisfunandi'mreallyficklesogopineaway type, and I detest all of them, lol.

Just be yourself, and rather than going 'looking' for girls, just let it happen naturally. Soon enough, you'll bump into someone you feel really comfortable and at ease with, and those cases always seem to work out better than trying to 'hook yourself up' with whoever 90% of the other guys are going after. [/size]

[James P. Galvatron]

Me myself I can't understand girls that well either its like I'm a good friend or I'm someone you can talk to or share your secrets or your feelings with, but I don't know if I'll go out with you and because I have two sides to me I usually can't show my feelings that well around people I like im nice, kind, helpful, and sweet;although, I'm the exact seem opposite when I'm around people I dont.

I find it hard to show my emotions to some people usually bottling them up or not showing them the only one I don't have a hard time showing is anger and hatred and those won't help me get girls either.

[Afire]

[FONT=Trebuchet MS][SIZE=2][COLOR=RED]The only way to take that letter the wrong way is to take things completely out of context and re-define the word humility. This whole poem/letter actually glorifies woman and the whole male/female relationship. If someone wants to form their own opinion of that or not; it's fine with me. I won't argue. ;)

And back to your original question... I think that what women are looking for in a guy is balance. Every girl is different. I believe there are things seen and unseen that attract us to people. I think it's the unseen things that screw up relationships. For example: the girl that has low self esteem being attracted to the guy that will abuse her or the other way around. Love can't be a one sided thing, and if it's a lopsided thing, it probably won't last. If a girl and guy both have good self esteem, I think their relationship has a much better chance of survival. So to like yourself first; that's the main thing. Girls that like themselves will be attracted to you. If it turns romantic...great! If not... you'll have a new friend who feels your equal.[/COLOR][/SIZE][/FONT]

[Kamuro]

yes, it turned into more of a discussion about the poem lol, but I agree with you, although I'm not a women, I know a lot of girls it seems that they're looking for the things you mentioned, some are different, but most have a lot of common interests that look for in guys, hopefully I have some of those qualities and I'll attract the ladies like Tatsubei Yagyu ;)

[Guest ShadowCat3021]

How interesting...a forum about girls. Are we really THAT hard to figure out? Hello everyone! I'm a new person...which my info would probablly tell you.... BTW what religion are you Iron_Inuyasha? I didn't think there were any religions existing today that discourage interaction with the opposite sex.

[You Don't Care]

OH, GOD NO! :animedepr Not another subject matter turned into a religious one?!

He probably wasn't entirely serious about what he posted. (But what if he is?! May his god(s) have mercy on us all!)

"That guy over there is touching her ever so slightly! [I][B]Smite him![/B][/I]"

[Kamuro]

Only extremely strict religions are like that. I won't mention specific ones because I don't want to insult anyone. But some religions don't even like to acknowledge that sex exist, let alone admit that people falling the religion take part in it. Its very unrealistic and stupid of any church that practices this belief. Now, the idea of waiting till marriage is a commendable one. I would never bash on anyway who felt it important that they wait. But saying its bad and you'll go to hell if you do it, is crazy and completely out of line. How dare people call themselves advocates of God and judge other people as well as tell them what to do, whats right or wrong. Luckily, I'm an athiest so I don't have to worry about such things :p

Anyway, no this wasn't really meant to be a religious post, but some religions do relate to the treatment and/or behavior of women. In the middle east women are looked down upon and thought to be not near as important as a man. This definitely influences the way women act and speak to other people. Its a shame because here we've realized what an asset women are in almost every aspect and I believe it helped us become a greater country. Everyone is equal.
