AGAIN, this is NOT all about sex. I have many other interests, and when I'm old and useless in that regard something else will take it's place. Everyone in this thread seems very sex focused to me. Bizarre.
Kid? If I can be called a "kid" in this thread, then I see no reason why I can't call you one either. Little boy. I'm older than you think. How does it feel to be wrong at every turn of this discussion? Young man.

not a fan of country music in general. couldn't get through the first minute. keep tryin though, keep trying to make me into something that's easy for you to deal with....keep trying to make me into a fat old pizza boy who lives with his parents, that will make everything I say that much more credible. Your tactics are a joke. And deep down you know that.
I think his fustration is perfectly reasonable for the situation he is in. Old soul who are too far gone to conform to the box but have not awoken yet (from my guess). He wants the ideal and get upset that life on earth is not ideal. It is true that he should work on himself but that do not mean that he is not 100% wrong in his assessment of his surrounding. This is a problem of the spirit from my point of view and he has used a lot of key words that show his way of thinking very far outside of the box.
You have a weak frame. I can assure you that if you're out in a scene and exhibit this lack of value, whether primary or secondary, you will not be successful; women will smell this on you a mile away. You also assume that women want a continually loud, brash, and overzealous male. This is not true; they want versatility. You need to be able to gauge when to be sensitive, funny, aloof, assertive, and passive. Your problem seems to be not understanding this dynamic. Women will test you, always, consciously or subconsciously, and you will only pass by understanding the dynamic of attraction and where you are within it. If you continue to be funny when she wants to build rapport you will lose her, if you show disinterest in her as a woman when she's opening up you will lose her, if you attempt to build rapport before you have shown value you will lose her.

Also, do you realize that women are constantly PREYED UPON by men. They are smaller than men, less violent. Women are looked at like prey, all the time.
If you were constantly being eyed, being played, being deceived by men who just want to screw you, you'd want someone strong around to get your back. This is why good looking women like men who can protect them. Because losers and creeps and players and lonely perverts are everywhere all trying to get into this woman's pants because she of how she looks, not WHO SHE IS.
So a woman finds a boyfriend or husband who likes her, not her body, and protects her, by "bullying" men who just want to have sex with her, and your blaming her for this?

Confident males are inherently bullies because they marginalise weaker more passive males in social situations so in this respect women are indeed attracted to bullies.

I think the premise here is flawed. To start with one equates brashness with being an "alpha male"? People of both sexes have different personalities. To think that a quite man isn't an alpha has been the detriment to many a loud mouthed individual.
We are all different and want/need different things. Characterization really doesn't work.

Confidence is important in social situations to the point where it is oppressive. However confidence is external and sometimes not who we really are beneath this exterior. So for women to ignore men who do not have the confidence to function in social situations or any confidence at all is unforgivable.edit on 19-5-2013 by fadedface because: (no reason given)

you stated that people aren't using confidence correctly, and then didn't explain how. I'm curious how confidence can be used incorrectly.
Your post is awesome, I like the part where you say that alpha's promising alpha offspring is a thousand year old conspiracy. If anything ever deserved a thread of it's own that's definitely it.
Confidence is surely a leadership quality but is it not what comes with doing anything well?
That's what confidence is, knowing what will work, now.
....I'm assuming you're a young person. I hope that's the case, because your posts are rather...juvenile. Don't take that as an insult, because we all have been there before.
People ALWAYS assume that about me. I'm older than you think. I've been warning you guys about assuming too much. I won't fit your stereotypes.
The fact is, you've decided that love doesn't exist and that anyone who states otherwise is either a liar or deluded. In other words, you're so positive of your opinion that you've completely closed your mind to the possibility that you just might be wrong.
Correct in my assessment, incorrect in how it was reached. My mind is closed to nothing and all my opinions are liquid, meaning they can change at any given time when faced with enough relevant information. Attempts at seeing yours and the point of view of many others in this thread has resulted in severe inconsistencies. Therefor, you are incorrect.
Personal growth and maturity can only occur when you realize that maybe...just maybe...you don't know everything.
True, perhaps you should take your own advice, then again......People in love know nothing of personal growth. Like I said, your ideas of love and relationships are crippling to the individual spirit.
Perhaps people assume you are young because your responses (in this thread) are rather childish. Just saying.
So, you're like a computer that shuts down instead of processing information? Interesting.
Wow, your absolute arrogance astounds me. What do you know of my personal growth, or my life since marriage? Nada. Since I've met my husband, my life has gone through profound changes. The death of five family members in less than two years, a pregnancy never thought possible and emergency cesarian, raising a special child, growing as a person and as a family.

Please.....look at the responses of Nenothtu, and Aussie Dingus and then tell me who's childish.
I can't even respond to them anymore.
I'm presenting a point of view that can only be understood by an adult, of which clearly I'm the only one in here.
I'm being attacked for like 6 pages for no other reason than most of you posters don't find my words pleasing to the ear. So what?
None of you have any argument for the actual content of the discussion.
You just keep going back to pointless statements about who's childish and who isn't, and how I'm gonna get mine.
You guys want me to be a total failure so bad, for no other reason then you just don't like my opinion, one of which I'll remind you no one has put up any kind of reasonable argument against.
So, you're like a computer that shuts down instead of processing information? Interesting.
I think that description fits everyone in here BUT me. Would love to hear how you reached this conclusion.

Okay thanks for your advice and being bullied doesn't bother me so much as being denied the things that other less deserving people in life have had and take for granted just because they are popular and socially accepted.
No need to be so alarmist and hysterical and try to make me out to be some kind of nutter I'm a loner because people (mainly women who shape the social behaviour of men) have excluded me from sociality because I am a quiet, passive, uncompetitive and timid male (also I might add a pacifist) and women instinctively distrust males like myself because they don't consider us to be normal and women expect males to conform to a certain masculine stereotype.
