Why I like [insert gender]

RangerAidan · 06-13-2004, 07:33 PM

Instead of focusing on one breed, let's expund upon why we like other people in a way that's slightly more than plutonic. Keep it clean, folks, her's an example:

I like girls. No, I love girls with every ounce of my being not already devoted to my family and my computer. There's just something about them, that when I noticed how delightfully different they were from me in say, 5th grade, that they just jam up my cranium with all sorts of mischief. It's in the gracefully articulated walk that involves everything from the slender heels up through shoulders drooping ever so slightly above the blade waving just below the skin like a restless sleeper under satin sheets. It's something about the tone of the voice, from high and cheery, to husky and sure, to the irresistible slight rasp, like honey-coated sandpaper. I could go on for days on the voice alone, the body, the smell, the everything, but the attitude and the expression of femininity just kills me. Look, I'm dying....blarg I am dead.

so, why do you like who you like? All sexual orientations welcome!

I hate boys because they're stupid and stinky and smelly and dumb. >=(

IHateMakingNames · 06-13-2004, 08:07 PM

Women. Boobies.

MP37a · 06-13-2004, 08:11 PM

I love girls because:

1.) They are nice
2.) They are typically more intelligent than guys not always though
3.) More intelligence means they are more interesting to talk to
4.) If they aren't intelligent as least they are nicer to look at when talking to them than guys
5.) They smell really good
6.) They are clean and neat
7.) They do stuff for me more often than guys
8.) They have good fashion sense and I can get good opinions from them
9.) They are more sympathetic than guys
10.) Which means I can get them to give me stuff more often like food....mmmm
11.) They can produce children
12.) They look better in a bikini than a guy
13.) They are very understanding
14.) They are hilarious to tease
15.) They are the best people to have for company
16.) They are my best friends

Yep I LOVE women. I couldn't imagine a world without them.

Dragonsbane · 06-13-2004, 08:13 PM

butts, boobies, and legs.......not to mention the fact that I need to reproduce (I'm not as poetic as RangerAidan).

why do you hate boys now, Pretty?

Royalspork · 06-13-2004, 08:28 PM

god there are so many burks here!

I like/crush on girls, but I don't show it at all.

Why you ask, " 'cause I got them hormones"!
edit: ok,what I mean is that I don't find boys any better than girls or vise versa. just I got hormomes that make me crush on girls, and I just like girls who are like me as most people do.

Funka Genocide · 06-13-2004, 08:36 PM

well, thats quite a question, its hard to generalize something like this, so I will say what I would like to find as opposed to what I should find, I'm not very good with this sort of stereotyping, sooo... here we go!

what I look for in a woman: interaction starts with physical perception, there must be an initial physical connection. I must find a woman attractive if I ever hope to have a romantic relationship with her, physically attractive that is. I find that there are two categories of unnattractive women, those who can't help it and those who can. If I got to know an ugly woman who couldn't help but be ugly, I would probably overlook that fact if I truly felt something for her, a woman who is only physicaly ugly because she has decided to be (ie: overweight because she eats her sorrows away, overly skinny because she starves herself or does drugs, or any other number of self inflicted... inflictions?) I could be friends with, but I would never consider her a romantic interest, I have enough self esteem problems myself, and having to deal with someone who destroys their own appearance would be too much for me. This is not to say that I am some sort of shallow biggot who takes the stereotypical view of physical beauty, I feel that most any woman in the world can be physically attractive, its just a matter of taking care of yourself, and this is not to say that physical attraction is the most important part of a relationship, it isn't, it is simply the first part.

after the initial attraction is present, its like a tingle in the back of my head, it says "find out if she's as beautiful on the inside" and so I must delve deeper in order to ascertain whether or not I'm wasting my time. The next phase is social interaction, observing how one acts in a public setting, more than one setting if I can manage it, work, partying, shopping, whatever. (this makes me sound like a stalker, I so am not, I try to make friends with the women I am interested in first, and before you are friends you must be acquaintances, and so must "get acquainted") you can learn alot from observing how someone acts under the confines of society. Do they rebel against it any time they can? Do they meekly obey without question? are they uninterested in mundane things? Do they find the simplest of tasks to be fascinating? there is a plethora of information to be gained from observation of social interaction.

the next obvious step, if I am still interested, is to begin hanging out with her. So I look for a friend first when it comes to women, and a friend to me is someone who can put up with me for prolonged periods of time, someone who can be honest with me, who I feel I can be honest with, someone caring, in the sense that they are able to consider others besides themselves from time to time. Someone fun who knows how to enjoy themselves, and someone who knows when to quit. there are many other facets to friendship, but these are important ones. After a friendship is made, then comes the romance. I look for a woman who knows what she wants, maybe not how to get it but at least she's on the right track. A woman who does not think in stereotypical gender roles, who knows the joys and pitfalls of hard work. I look for a woman who can express her emotions when she needs to, instead of keeping them bottled up inside. I look for straightforwardness and integrity. If she starts trying to play games with my heart (quit plying games with my heeeaaart!, was that N*SYNC?) I just pick up and leave, I don't have time for manipulative ass holes who think they can run my life just because they have a set of, umm... mammary glands, yeah, thats it... anyways, there are a lot of things I look for in a woman, but no one is perfect by anyones standards, so these are the main ones right here, if through dating I can discern that a woman possesses the right qualities, and that she is attracted to me for who I am, not what I have or what she thinks she could make me into, then its all good.

this seems to have strayed from the topic, but I hope its still an interesting read, this whole process seems like a rigorous interview board, and in a way it is. Women always seem to think (hey, theres a stereotype!) that they are worthy of the best guy in the world, and that if you are not him then they are settling for less than they deserve. Well, I just try and turn the tables, I don't let my, uh... testosterone, yeah, sure... guide me around and make decisions for me. Who I become romantically involved with is an important, if not the most important, aspect of my life. Just because she's hot doesn't make her right, or even worth your trouble. thats my 76 dollars and 2 cents worth, thanks for reading! hope you enjoyed the glimpse into my life!

I like girls because they tend to be nicer to guys then other guys. If a guy hits his head on a locker a girl will feel bad for you...a guy just laughs and makes fun of you in short If you're a guy I probably like them for the same reasons you do.

Aerozord · 06-13-2004, 08:58 PM

Ok now judging by most responces this thread will most likely be closed but I will post out of boredom.

First off I was never one of those...girls are icky types. I always liked girls. Although I am atracted to a good looker brains and personallity are far more important. Now the only real benafit between a girl over a guy would be the "extra" things you could do. Thats about it. What I look for in a girl is about the same as what I look for in a friend. I never believe girls are really any different so sexual things are about the only reason I preffer them. Otherwise its even

RangerAidan · 06-13-2004, 09:04 PM

No, no. It'll stay open so long as the talk doesn't go all stupid.
