to most of TranceAion's explanation. For being an 18yo
male, he's got a lot on the ball for his age.
Here are some additional observations from your favorite MT
pontificator.
* While it's not very scientific, you can learn quite a bit from John
Gray's "Men are from Mars, Women from Venus," especially when it comes
to the chapters on communication -- how men and women communicate,
where they differ, and what a particular communication style can mean.
* Some studies have suggested reasons for why men are wired for visual
stimulus and women are wired for societal stimulus (wealth, stability,
socially prominent). Most of this has to do with reproduction and
survival drives. Many guys are off drooling at babes who appear
good-looking (thus healthy, not marred by disease or malnutrition, and
able to successfully produce viable offspring) and girls are off
drooling over the young Adonis, the rich dude, or the sports stud (thus
likely to be a long-term successful provider for the raising of
offspring and protector against others). This doesn't make current
social behavior acceptable, but understanding where it's coming from
helps you recognize it for what it is and perhaps avoid it if you find
it unappealing.
* I find a lot of both male and female behavior to be shallow,
ridiculous, single-minded, and selfish. Being Neandertal isn't limited
to just one of the sexes. Women dwell too much on image, appearance,
and how they look to others both externally and with societal
interrelationships. The women I've liked are ones who are highly
intelligent and don't really give a hoot what other people think. They
don't wear a lot of makeup and don't have acres of closets filled with
clothes. These women are grounded, real people. They were worth
searching out.
* As for the girl-on-girl action: yes, I find it sexy. A threesome is
also sexy. But I've never had one, and I think the reason it's every
guy's fantasy is because it's so damn hard to get even one of you into
bed that getting two of you is like dying and going to heaven. XP I
suspect that the threesome also plays into the aforementioned
evolutionary trend: with two women, the man is much more likely to
successfully spread his genes around. The opposite appears to be true
for women: though two men increases the chances of providing for
children, it decreases the chance for any single set of genes to
succeed.
I respected TranceAion's reply the most, because his is the most approachable answer -
even I - Celessa, would have to agree with him, and he's quite an individual for someone his age. I'm glad to
have seen his point come across, and its one of the best posts I've seen in quite a while. That's why I'm
taking some high consideration to his post - his words are right on the ball indeed.
And again - oh wise miketo, your answers seem to absolutely shine. lol
Men are hard to understand, and yes - women are hard to understand as well. But one of your points prove to be very
striking, yet true.

Please miketo - that's the reason why I find some girls a little narrow-minded as
well. I'll admit, some girls are just plain shallow - I'm a person who believes more in personality than
looks, and although I hardly wish to acknowledge having both - I know what you totally mean.
People say I'm different because rather than being the darling, model-look-alike who pretty much scoffs at men and
go for rich sport cars and daily shoppings at the mail, they like me - in which I can't hardly believe myself - it
took a lot of realization to see what they were talking about - a fun, laid back personality. Someone with humor,
someone with a sense of intelligence. A person who is not afraid to stand for what she believes in, someone who picks
her battles well and is serious whenever she needs to be, while at the same time, wishing to goof off and have fun as
well.
I'll admit, as bad as guys can be, girls can follow the same line as well. If you've ever seen two girls
hating each other... yeah, you know what I mean. lol - Plus, some girls aren't that talkative, and more selective.
Their arrogance is kind of their own downfall, really. Even I would have to admit to some girls and their flaws. Unique?
I may be. I just wish more girls would be open and talkative, really. Grounded, down-to-earth ladies - we need more of
those. lol
