Women understand fully what they do and why they do it. My distaste, as far as hanging out with them, is just the constant drama. There is always some huge issue in their life that is causing a twinge in their nasal passages.


they must be so spoiled sometimes, can't accept any frustration...

so, would it be less trouble and less expensive to just pay prostitutes?

In england yes, hence why business is booming.

Here women measure your love by how much you spend on them, ask any englishman, and they all say the same.

My general opinion of women is that they're sweet, considerate partners as long as you pay attention to their needs and encourage openness (openness. te he he). I think duets that end sourly are often the result of mutual failings, rather than one person being R2D2 and the other person being Sauron. Otherwise, they either prosper or they at least come to a close with reduced & manageable pain involved.

I'm sorry you've developed such an immensely negative opinion Violent Flower. You might want to consider flocking with birds of a different feather.

It is a very negative and rather biased opinion, which is sad.  You can't base an entire sex on the attitudes of a few idiots.

Stupid, infantile, shallow, selfish behavior is not the sole preserve of Men.  Swings and roundabouts, we like to say.  Good and bad on both sides.

And as for men being dumb regarding being manipulated.  Men have happily played their part in that age old game since time began and most enjoy it.

It's ok to have a negative opinion, as I don't feel that way about all of them I have not meet every women. These are experiences that I have had and therefor make them factual encounters. I feel men usually provide me with less drama, more activity that enlighten me, and they are so easy to read I don't have to guess what they are thinking unlike the tampon comity we call the female gender.

I have to agree with you that Oh so many females are as you describe, or better yet. Being manipulative snows with a broom handle up their rear. Luckily i have always been able to steer clear of these female seeing as their manipulativenes seems to be oozing from them in a rather unattractive way.

And you have no idea how often i hear from women that they dont enyoy the company of other females. Because of the way they think, the way they behave and the disturbingly cruel things they talk about when they are without any males within hearing distance.


But in the end you dont have to assosiate yourself with these people. Yes it can be aggrivating to hear all the crap they say but they dont know any better and you should feel sorry for them for that.

It is simple. Men, when aroused even slightly, make poor decisions. Literally thinking with the little head.
Like it or not, that is the way it is.
Women, whether they know it or not, are playing on this fact to get what they want on all scales.
A wealthy man, with a big house and nice cars, or a free drink.
Whatever it is, we fall for it, mostly because it's nature. The more testosterone flowing, the worse our decision making.

I have been manipulated, through the implication of sex many times.
I have also been taken advantage of because of altruistic ideas and personal values.
I have put up with a lot of **** to try to keep a relationship in tact, only to realize later, that I was foolish for even trying.
But, at the core of it, we are horny bastages (hope that's an acceptable word here).
Females want for things from us, and we want sex (usually more than our female counterparts.
Some women do it for fun. Because they can. And, why pay my own way if I don't have to.
Some do it out of necessity. Gotta have a place to live.
Some do it on purpose. A lot more than would amit it, of course.
And some, just because that is the way things are.
It happens with younger people more, I believe partially because as we get older men's stock goes up farther into life (higher pay, greater status), and they wise up and obtain more self confidence. They've been through some life and know what manipulation is. And, they understand that they don't have to put up with it.
On the flip side, women's stock, for these purposes (Looks, sexuality)peaks earlier, and then, goes down with age. They start to not have as much desirability as they did when they were younger. They have children, a history of exes, etc. (not that men don't have these things, just that it isn't as much a factor).
I don't mean to come off as sexist, this is just the way things seem to work. Not always of course, nothing is absolute.

I agree with everything that you noted! It is rare that a female just really falls in love for the sake of love without some manipulation process. Furthermore it is the same with the male gender only becoming involved for the sake of sexual gratification.

The hard part to swallow, so to speak, is that women feed off the idea that they know what men will do for this uncontrollable need. That is the part that is frustrating. Then they all go to the bar with their tampon comity and make light of the man they just completely screwed over.

This is not just my opinion, it is a simple fact. I guess nature is sexist.
Just the first article I found with a little info on the subject.

Having looked at the actual study, it only shows that men who were exposed to pictures of women were willing to accept a lower minimum in an ultimatum game. I don't see how this proves anything except that many men (like women) are sometimes influenced by irrelevant factors. To say they're influenced to make "poor decisions" is a stretch.

I don't need a study or report to tell me this is true I have witnessed it first hand. There is an animal instinct in men and they do not only let their light sabers control there decisions but they loose rational thought process. If you need study's to prove that they are there they are put there. However I will not be searching them out you can do that. I will be busy picking out which skirt I should wear to my pool game, slight bend over always throw the guys shot off. Just kidding!

Oh look, here is another similar one...
[url]http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/23961406/ns/health-behavior/t/sex-brain-watch-your-wallet/[/url]

And another...

[url]http://www.psmag.com/culture/sex-on-the-brain-proves-costly-for-men-39091/[/url]

Here's one that has to do with gamers...
[urlhttp://www.psychologyofgames.com/2009/12/just-one-more-level-decision-making-under-arousal/[/url]

If we make (we'll say) 'poorer' decisions when not even thinking about  sex, but just a female name, when it comes to money, sexual behavior, and video games, why wouldn't it also be true that we make poorer decisions elsewhere?

Here is a page with links to references to info on this subject.
[url]http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/bdm.528/references[/url]
And remember... You can't fool mother nature.
It's just the way we're made. Like it or not.
Men get influenced by the naturally occuring reactions within the body. Similar to when women are influenced by naturally occuring reactions within their bodies during, say, their menstrual cycle, or pregnancy.
It just is. Females have a real excuse for some of their, less than perfect behaviors, and men do, too.

I'm not denying that many men are affected by thoughts of women. What I'm saying is that the general statement that men are driven by sex is both stereotypical and untrue. Some men are affected by thoughts of women significantly, some less, and some not at all. For example, I'm a man, and no woman could ever manipulate me with sex. I know many guys for whom this is also the case.

some of what have been said makes women look like robots. but they have their own vulnerabilities. seriously, women seem to always be upset about something.

actually, it's rare that anyone just falls in love. I mean, most of the time it involves more egoism than love, and I'm not even talking about manipulation. you could really care about the other person, cherish her, etc... but at the same time, you are not doing it for her, but only for you, because you fear you'll feel bad and empty if ever she goes away.

are those relationships ever based on love? or do we always expect something from the other person? would you stay with someone, if you didn't need anything from her?

The thread was about why and how men are manipualted by women.
I mean no disrespect toward women. It just isn't the topic.

@MV  Unless you are asexual, or homosexual, or you are a virgin that for, whatever reason, has never been attractive, or attracted, to any women.  
I don't believe you cannot or have not been influenced in some decision or other, by the implication of getting sex from a female.
Guys will make a decision to be late to an appointment, or work, or school simply because they thought of a female and decided to pound one out before they leave. Especially as a younger male.
In fact, I would, if I knew you, call you out as lying. If not to everyone else, to yourself.
I don't know if it's a pride thing or what.
Or, maybe I, along with most every guy I know, am just weak.
Or... Something.
