Shallow love

So someone dislikes a particular type of body part. Big fucking deal, I don't see what the problem is. Someone else probably has a fetish about it. How on earth could anyone get offended by an individual's tastes?

As for judging people on what they've said here- bullshit. Clearly some of you need to be more discerning and develop some petty preferences. You know what I hate. People's knees but particularly fat, flabby knees but who the hell cares, there's probably someone wanking over them right now. I'm not wrong because I dislike those knees and quite frankly if my saying that offends you, you've got a problem. Go see a therapist and tell them about the imaginary friend who criticised your knees that she's never even seen.

mean-spiritedness, condescension, scornful sarcasm

Good sex though.

Hey, it's not like I'm saying this thread should be locked and deleted. People can feel free to wallow in their own crapulence, it's all fine by me.

Ha. I think that's exactly what you're saying. The moderator's on this board clearly have too much power, especially Flyboy, who has clearly abused his power in this thread by suggesting that it should be locked or deleted.

...i believe that was Deva you were meaning to address about gay men.

Look! Yayy me! I haven't even posted to this thread and people are hallucinating me! I exist again!

Though, for the record, I don't want to have sex with gay men. Occasionally I want to have sex like gay men, but that's different.

partners who are only horny when they are drunk or high.
although this perhaps says more about me.

Other petty traits I find wholly undesirable: Sharon Watts.

I've got a feeling that you have some major Sharon Watts hangups Bobossboy would you like to chat about it?

Bear

11:11 / 07.10.03

Does this help?

Spaniel

11:15 / 07.10.03

No, it really doesn't.

Bear, you love Sharon, I'm telling everyone.

Na, he just fantasises about running his own seedy club in the East End. Bear's Beers and Barbie. Spearmint Panda. Grizzly's Den (Smart casual only, Ladeez free!)

That's why you're off to Croydon, innit? On the run from one side or t'other in the Vauxhall Club Wars.

Bear

14:13 / 07.10.03

Gotta let the heat die down a little, get my face of the streets for awhile.

Grizzly's Den sounds quite good actually I might av a word with some of my gangster contacts that I seem to be making quickly...

You aint seen me right...

Gingerbop...you have large breasts, red hair and are Scottish? Why aren't I stalking you yet?

At the gym last night I discovered one of the things that sets my teeth on edge and drives me mad with rrage:

Instead of saying "He said" or "She said", the person says "I go" or "He goes" or "She goes."

I don't care if you are Parker Poesy, if you talk like that, I want the mute Indian from "One Flew Over The Cookoo's Nest" to shove a pillow over your face while you sleep and then toss the sink through the window so I can run away in case you survive.

Cherry Bomb

10:20 / 08.10.03

Hmmm. Well, first of all I would like to say, "don't be afraid of big breasts! They just want to play!"

Second, xoc, of COURSE breasts of any size can be aroused when touched. Maybe manboobs are more noticeable?

Third, in regards to flux comment: personalment, I think one has to remember that beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder. You know, one person prefers really skinny, boyish types, another prefers more bounce to the ounce, one person likes nice broad shoulders, another is a chest person. Still more of us are affected by the person itself.

I say, just let go, man, it's not really personal (if that makes sense).

That site is way off. I don't trust their judgement at all.

Instead of saying "He said" or "She said", the person says "I go" or "He goes" or "She goes."

What about "he's, like," or "she's, like,"?

That site is way off. I don't trust their judgement at all.

I got 7 out of 9 by their standards! WooHoo! Damn I LUV dykes and deutsch women. One of my favorites (IRL) is both.

Instead of saying "He said" or "She said", the person says "I go" or "He goes" or "She goes."

What about "he's, like," or "she's, like,"?

Yes, worse.

And Cherry Bomb, I questioned the relative responsiveness of breasts, as well. Seems like any nipple that gets licked, blown on and perhaps bitten will exhibit SUM measurable reaction.

Haven't yet decided who likes it best, though. Usually it's fairly obvious. Rarely by sight, of course.

At the risk of being pedantic, what strikes me about all of this is that our likes/dislikes are based on:
aesthetics >> style, looks, etc.
ideology >> tolerance, kindness, etc.
perception >> intellect, humour, etc.
base instict >> height, build, etc.

The thing to bear in mind is tolerance. Be tolerant of the fact that not all people will appeal to you or that they may have habits that annoy you.
And be tolerant of the fact that you will not appeal to all people or that you may have habits that annoy people.
But more importantly, don't take it too fucking seriously, I mean come on....
There are enough of us to go around for all of us, if you know what I mean

Nice of you to solve the whole issue for everyone. If only you'd been there at the beginning...

Aesthetics are undeniably important, but I've found sometimes people's attitudes have far more effect on their attractiveness. Things that particularly grate me are:

Deriving opinions from the media or society in general (ugh).

Inability to see the relevance of any academic subject to our everyday lives

Excessive focus on who they know rather than who they are/talking about how diverse their friends are

Including clubbing and/or drinking in their list of hobbies

Saying things or people are 'wierd' a lot/ever calling anyone a 'loser'

Any and all forms of unimaginative and generic behaviour

And basically everything about everyone who's ever been on Big Brother

ahhh if it were that easy to solve this problem.... *wry smile*

But you're right, easy for me to swan in after the fact and look at this issue with rationale.... I reckon if I had been involved from the beginning of this thread I would have climbed in with both feet in my mouth but due to timing I was able to engage my brain before operating my keyboard.

But should it ease your mind, I do admit to complete and utter shallowness when it comes to men in gray shoes.... my momma always told me never to trust them (and no advance apologies forthcoming to those of you who actually do wear gray shoes)!

Oops! I'd better not use the word 'wierd' again today, or I may end up finding myself undesirable.
