i could blog about the tooth i had pulled yesterday but thought you would find this more entertaining... please note that i am on another planet today due to the painkillers... I read Greg's blog regularly, he has very interesting and amusing thoughts on how to take over the world in general... but honestly... the guy is really intelligent and has good insight and an interesting view on most issues... he is quite genius in some ways but like all men always likes to have to last word...
he left a comment on my MILF post yesterday... a very Greg like comment .... so here goes... it's a really long, I've broken it into segments and answered accordingly....
"woman, they stick together... we don't turn on our own..."You really don't understand your own kind do you? Men get a really bad wrap because we are too often open and honest about our reactions.
Woman: Honey, why are you looking at her?
Man: Because she has really nice tits.
My answer: hmmmm... mostly us girls tend to stick together, men have nothing on us girls on that level, sisters really look out for each other... but like any theory, mine is flawed, we are all human after all... yes you guys are "open and honest" to the point of being ridiculous, and yes I see where you're going with this... but have you guys never heard of the word "tact"?
Granted our brilliance doesn't always shine. We objectify women in the open, all the while women objectify men, often to a higher degree, in secret. Maybe you left something out. Sure women who stare eye to eye don't turn on each other. But watch what happens as soon as one turns her back. Still don't believe me? Then let's have a little test:
1) When a heterosexual couple has an affair, without thinking too long about it, whose fault do you think it is, the man's or woman's? Every man or woman reading this will think man first, even if they write something like, well we need more information.
My answer: no i will admit, it will be the woman's fault. i'm speaking for myself here, not for womankind, not for woman in general, but only for myself. i have been in a few situations where a affair was blatantly on the cards, an affair being a sexual relationship with a married or involved person. i thought every "offer" through, analyzed my motives and in only one case was willing to go ahead and do it... to me having an affair is wrong, sure lust is overpowering beyond belief but i've been on the other side, i know how it feels when your husband dips into the lake of lust... so to me jumping into an affair isn't that simple, men still feel sex is just sex, and although a lot of woman also thinks that way, you have to admit that on some level it's more than just sex... so i think men are more open to affairs yes, but it's the woman that calls the shots, being yes or no, let's go for it or no go fuck yourself you have a wife and kids at home.
2) Read a copy of Playboy magazine and then read a copy of Playgirl magazine. Which spends more time objectifying the opposite sex?
My answer: i have to be honest, never had a copy of either in my hand. and if i google playboy or playgirl i'm sure to pick up a virus of some sort so...
in general: greg... naughty naughty... you read playgirl? hehe... ok if you buy literature of that nature both sexes are objects, no depth or no character or no substance are given to either... if you are in that magazine you are an object... pure and simple.
3) Thought experiment: if a handsome, wealthy man has a casual (no sex) date with three women who happen to be friends, and then the man tells them all: "I know you are all friends, and I like each of you but don't feel right dating all of you. So I'll leave it to you three, since you are friends and know each other well, to figure out which of you should continue to explore a relationship with me." What would happen?
Greg's answer: two women would turn up missing or dead.
My answer: if i was one of the three I would have waved the other two goodbye and wished them luck, if a guy can't see what he's got it me... well his loss ;) moving on...
Greg says: Women are much more competitive and ruthless when it comes to the opposite sex.
My answer: Yes I have to agree on this one, woman have become very ruthless and aggressive, a mistake I think. Woman tend to struggle between the difference of equality in the workplace and equality in relationships. Relationships aren't supposed to be a competition, and to me equality does come to play in certain aspects of a relationship but somehow I think it's not really even supposed to be an issue. Personally I like a man to be a man in the relationship, I know a lot of woman like to be in control, but to me it's a natural process of complimenting your partner, it should be fun and rewarding, not a constant battle to see who's in charge.
Greg says: Men share more of a camaraderie and will often sacrifice his own blue balls so that at least his buddy will get laid.
My answer: you're kidding right? really? wow... if that's the case... well those blue balls have to be mounted and ... ahem... let's leave it at that shall we? I have to explain here that girl friends can be competitive amongst each other... and as we don't have any blue balls issues so we tend to be quite possessive and overly jealous at times, yes... i have to admit.
Greg says: Men who seek sex become stupider. Women who seek sex become smarter. This is why we get all the blame.
My answer: it takes a man to admit that Greg, well done ;) as you said in the beginning... "granted our brilliance doesn't always shine"... too true ;)
15 COMMENTS....bite me!:
I love it!!
Some very interesting theories here sweets!
Point though, women who seek sex will get laid. Women who wait for men to seek sex will end up with genital herpes. Despite the stereotype, men are generally monogamous, hence why they are so often boring in bed. When you meet a slutty man, you also guaranteed some fabulous sex as well as the clap if you're stupid.
My goodness...I think I am actually speechless.
However, my best, best friend is a bloke and, as far as I know, he's never, ever given up a woman so one of his (male) buddies could get laid.
Wow, talk about food for thought! My brain is now officially on today, thanks. ;-)

hahahahaa. you replied twice. classical.
i have a crush on greg as of today.
"but have you guys never heard of the word 'tact'?"
Tact? As soon as we use tact the question becomes about honesty. "Why can't you just be honest with me?" or "Why don't you tell me what you are thinking?"
Yes we have tact. That is why a man doesn't usually point and say, "Hey, Honey, look at her tits." But if you ask, you must deal with the answer.
My theory is that since Walt Disney, most women have come under the Cinderella spell. They think a Prince Charming actually exists, when in reality, we are all flawed human beings. Many women want honesty and tact so long as it maintains the illusion that they are a princess. Many have the illusion that the rest of their life with a person will be just like the first date, the first month, or the first year. It won't. People who don't grow together become bored of each other.
By age 30 or 40 a man will fall into one of several categories:
1) The "Yes, Dear drone." Relationship will be extremely boring. Shallow women will be happy with this man. Others will either dump him or have an affair. He'll become a dreamer.
2) He'll pick honesty over tact. If he's good enough in bed, she'll overlook it. If not, then the relationship won't last long. Women don't want honesty, they only say they do.
3) He'll open up his other options.
"men still feel sex is just sex, and although a lot of woman also thinks that way, you have to admit that on some level it's more than just sex... so i think men are more open to affairs yes, but it's the woman that calls the shots, being yes or no..."
A cigar is just a cigar and sex is just sex. It is people that make more of it. And it is religion that has made sex (especially in our time period) something other than it is. The problem here is this culture of guilt people have a hard time avoiding when it comes to sex.
Sex isn't some bad thing you hide away and do. As long as people are responsible, there is absolutely nothing different about sex versus anything else you might share with someone. Religious and cultural hang-ups turn it into something else. (I've got a lot to say on this, but I'll save that for another time).
Men are not "more open" to affairs, nor are women "more open" to affairs. There isn't really much difference between us. We are human and we are drawn to excitement equally. As individuals we find different things exciting, so that is where we differ, but this isn't based on our sex. As far as calling the shots, I disagree, we are equal here too. People often have the illusion of power, but this is only an illusion.
"naughty naughty... you read playgirl? hehe... ok if you buy literature of that nature both sexes are objects, no depth or no character or no substance are given to either... if you are in that magazine you are an object..."
There is the cultural influence coming out. Playgirl is a magazine like many others. It makes just as much sense to feign shock at someone reading "The Economist". There is nothing wrong with sex. And as far as objectification, I've read both. Playgirl is nothing but sex. But with Playboy, it is one of the few magazines that I've maintained a subscription to because it is substantive.
We objectify everything in our lives, so why not sex? This is the nature of how our brains work. We create generalizations that keep us sane. We start with base desire before discovering details. If men and women did not objectify each other they would never get together to fuck, make babies, and find more meaning in life.
The only reason we have the illusion that men objectify women more is because a woman will generally know for certainty if she will get laid on any given day.
"if i was one of the three I would have waved the other two goodbye and wished them luck, if a guy can't see what he's got it me... well his loss ;) moving on..."
Ok. You go on believing that. That works fine if you have no interest in the guy. If all three women have some interest in this guy, then it won't matter if they are best friends, sisters, or lovers; the knives will come out as soon as one turns her back. As a guy, I've personally experienced this more than once.
"Woman tend to struggle between the difference of equality in the workplace and equality in relationships."
I have strong feelings on this one, and will only briefly comment. Women often want anything but equality in the workplace; they more often want preferential treatment. Men cannot treat women the same as they would treat other men or else they will be charged with sexual harassment or discrimination. Men are brutal to each other in the workplace. Our comments are raw, sexually charged, and confrontational. We often treat each other less than human. That is the nature of the workplace. Yes, there are examples of guys taking advantage of women, but in most cases these advantages aren't too different than the treatment men face too.
And with women advancing to positions of power, the sexual advances are starting to balance out between both sexes. As I've said before, sexual harassment only applies to ugly people.
"you're kidding right? really? wow... if that's the case... well those blue balls have to be mounted and ... ahem... let's leave it at that shall we?"
Among friends, no I'm not kidding. Yes some guy you know from the office or from playing basketball or baseball with, probably not. But your friends, hell yeah.
sheena: he is defininetely an aquired taste, but so glad we have the same taste ;)
greg: did i say something wrong? :) interesting thoughts as always.. you are still wrong on number 4 sorry greg ;)
Wrong? I don't think so. I'm difficult to read/get sometimes. Which is number 4? And Wrong? I don't think so.
"if i was one of the three I would have waved the other two goodbye and wished them luck, if a guy can't see what he's got it me... well his loss ;) moving on..."

my answer: you're wrong. I wouldn't do that, fight over a guy like that!? maybe when i was 16 but now...nope...never... men generally have bigger egos than they realise... in afrikaans there is a saying that goes like this "jy sal jou wat verbeel" meaning roughly that you convinced yourself something that isn't true...
you talk a lot of sense greg, but this specific one, no way :)
globus would like to meet some of these wimmin.
Gosh, Sheena, I'm flattered. You and Sweets will have to work out which of you gets my attention.
Sweets, my ego takes a lot of hard work. In American I have a saying: The most powerful force in the universe for which no one can escape is statistics.
globus: i'm sure you would grrrrr ;)
greg: LOL i'm sure we'll come to some sort of satisfactory arrangement...
and for the rest... touche' i concede, but don't tell anyone ;)
very interesting indeed...
