  1. Thanks JJ, I was about to give up on ET - but if I can post such stuff and not get hammered then I know I am in the right place!
    Cheers!

  3. Where the hell does volente_00 live? Canada? (sorry J...) Some women are just snotty bitches. Period. Doesn't matter which gutter they came from or which hill Daddy's home sat on, some women are sharks. But seriously, can we blame them? We look at a nice, well mannered, Very Good Looking poor girl that doesn't wear fashionable clothes, designer shoes, chic purses, nor does she have the latest hip hairstyle or a hot new ride. We look at her and what do we see? "Cute, but too much Sarah Plain and Tall." But then we look at a rude, bitchy, Decent Looking poor girl who maxes out her credit cards, lives outside her means, buys designer clothes, fashionable shoes, hip purses, gets the new chic hairstyle, and drives a sleek European sedan, and what do we see her as? "Hot, spicy, sexy?"

    Why is this? I think I have a pretty good answer, but I'm curious what everyone else thinks.

  4. Because most people care too much how they look to other people. Society will look at someone walking down the street with a hot chic as a winner and if he is walking down the same street with plain Jane - he's just a Joe average. Notice how when you see a hot girl walking down the street with an ordinary looking guy - isn't your first thought something along the lines of "that guy is rich/powerful" or something like that, it makes you notice the guy as well. The reverse of that reminds me of the time I was in the passenger seat of a V8 twin turbo Lotus Espirit cruising down Sydneys inner city; My mate turns around and says "the guys look at the car, the girls look at the driver". It is so true.

    It's the subsconcious primal mating instincts. It's why we like chics with a 4:3 hip:waist ratio. Why we like big breasts. It's all about the mating game.

    Same reason chics are attracted to tall guys, or guys with pecs & 6-pak bellies.

  6. Oh, hey NZDSPeCIALISt (if you're this spot-on with our mating instincts, your trading must be off-da-hook!)

    You're 100% right bro.

    Chicks who would screw their faces up and turn away from me (I'm african-american living in the USA, go figure), bat their eyelashes and smile when I walk into a restraurant/theater/party with an attractive woman on my arm ... and the guys try to give me the stare down.

    It's hysterical. :p

    The same when I'm well-dressed ... , my next big goal is to get an apartment in a really nice area. :cool:

    Hey, don't fight it, it's the way we really work.

    Just a bunch of animals, I say.

    Later,

    JJ

    P.S. No matter how enlightened we think we really are!

  7. Well, I 've dated someone who was unemployed - but the unemployment was temporary - and during that time I'd pay for both of us 75% of time. I've never dated anyone who didn't graduate college, as I mentioned before, I have relatively high standards when it comes to education. Regardless, no janitors/garbarge men or grave diggers for me!

    Well from all the 'disconnects' with women posted so far, this thread shows that everyone, men that is, know something about trading and little to nothing about women.

    No, you like big breasts.
    Apparently those that like big mammaries are longing for the childlike whereas power/success men prefer sleek females but with medium or small breasts. So that admittedly is some psycho-babble with which I do agree.

    I don't like huge plonks of tit flowing everywhere.
    But its down to personal choice, huh?

  10. do not buy chicks gifts, then you'll know where you stand with them. take them to the movies, take them to dinner, take them on boat rides, all of that. but no gifts, no roses, and no loans. a chick comes asking for a loan after two weeks of dating is a character red flag.
    a chick must like being with you for no other reason than being with you.
