Cheese Tue, 10 May 2011 10:36:51 +0000 http://www.verysmartbrothas.com/?p=2699#comment-279371 "also, ladies, i need to know: why are you all so damn cruel? is it our fault, or did God just make you that way? is it nature, nurture, or the alcohol?"Re: #2 and 3 Because after a certain point when we become confident with ourselves, we stop giving a crap. We stop trying so hard to be nice because it just really isn't worth the trouble most of the time. We accept that guys can be just as cruel, are mostly just trying to get into the panties, and will lick his wounds for two seconds before being distracted by the next chick. Ya'll will be alright.Re: #1 I do not advocate #1. The FZ shenanigans sabotage our collective hope of developing a relationship with a man. Doggish men are enough of a problem. Creating jaded men will only make things worse. I opt for the mercy killing...just telling a man you aren't interested in anything with him, even if he offers to place himself in the FZ. “also, ladies, i need to know: why are you all so damn cruel? is it our fault, or did God just make you that way? is it nature, nurture, or the alcohol?”

The other thing is that some guys just can't take no for an answer. And I can speak from personal experience. You try to tell him no nicely, but he acts like you're just playing around or something instead of taking you seriously.#2: Guys really need to listen up on this one. Yes, "Do I look fat?" is a loaded question because WE WANT YOU GUYS TO SAY SOMETHING NICE TO US! Yes, it is a bad way to go about it, but we want you guys to say something romantic like "It doesn't matter, you always look beautiful to me." or "Big, small, you're the most beautiful woman in the world." Why is it so hard to get romance out of you guys, anyway???#3: Women don't conspire to flirt with taken men, men are just horny. A sweaty woman in a sauna suit could bump into him by accident and the guy will feel tested. ESPECIALLY if it's between 12:25 and 12:50 in the morning and the guy has some alcohol in him.#4: Yes, flirting hard with a guy when she already has a boyfriend is almost (almost) as cruel as pretending you like ballet, romantic comedies, cats, and poetry just to get into a girls pants. And once you do get there you treat her like crap afterward breaking her heart, making her feel cheap, and ruining her reputation. I think the sexes should just call this one even.It's true that not all women are the same but c'mon, you men have a rep for getting hurt by one -ONE- girl and then taking out on every other girl you meet after her. Tell me that's not childish. And so, you run into ONE gold-digger or ONE conniving skank and now you men are ready to write songs and blog posts about how all women are shady. Guys, put on your big-boy undies and stop sulking so hard just cuz one girl hurt you. You know, if women acted like you guys the population would be, like, half what it is now. #1: There are two answers to this, the most obvious is that she’s just using the guy, and shame on him for being too in love/horny to pick up on that.

And (I think) most women would agree that it would trigger some sort of "I have bad game" insecurity and we would be wondering why he didn't ask for the digits for days. But that's how men should play it... Introduce yourself, let the charm marinate, and then (somehow) make yourself visible to the sister again sometime in the very near future. This would work best in a regular happy hour spot, FYI. It's how I met my husband.

Honesty is the best policy. There is always a difference between being rude and being real. As such, it's best for both men and women to keep it real with each other. Ladies, if you have a b/f and you're out at the club, be real with a guy who is clearly interested in getting to know you. The first words out of my mouth after giving my "name" are "I have a b/f". Most men don't even care. I have heard "what your man got to do with me" more time than I can count. Men, stop lying to women and telling them that you are interested in a monogamous relationship when you know you really just want to sleep with her. The world would rotate a lot smoother if people just kept it real. (SN: "name" is in quotation marks because I do NOT need stalkers looking me up on Facebook after I told them that I was not interested. lol.) Very interesting topic. Honesty is the best policy.
