I’ve Been Thinking About Men and Women …

I’ve been doing some thinking about the double standards and ironies that have to do with the way males and females see each other and put them into statements.

Here is the first statement – When a woman says no she is a cocktease.

There is a lot of truth to that one as most women know. Heck you can’t even put on makeup without being accused of that. However a tranny can put on tons of makeup and not have any problem at all.

When a man says no he has a fear of commitment.

Actually in my experience this is what hysterical women who can’t take rejection say. I think it is a bunch of b.s. to say a man has a fear of commitment. Maybe he has fear of being committed to an insane asylum after being driven crazy by some obsessed woman.

Men never make passes at women who wear glasses.

Writer Dorothy Parker made up this phrase a thousand years ago. Maybe if she looks like ugly Betty but I don’t think women have this problem anymore. I think women are more likely to pass on men who wear glasses nowadays.

The more you call the more he or she will be convinced that you care and that you are the one.

I guess I know a lot of obsessed people and to tell you the truth I don’t really know why people think that calling someone all of the time is going to make them like you more. All they are really going to think is that you are a big pest.

Men are sexually attracted to women who make a nice dinner.

Hmmm. Although this doesn’t hurt it is more likely that men are sexually attracted to women who give great oral sex. The dinner thing is just icing on the cake. Which leads me to the next big misconception –

Women just love oral sex. Ummm…not really. Watching too much porn leads a lot of men to believe this but really it is just yucky and bad for us in every way.

Here is another big myth – A straight woman can convince a gay male that he is not gay. I don’t know how many of my girl friends have fallen for this one. Let’s just say it is a project that always ends up in disaster.

If you are sexually attracted to someone then everyone else must be attracted too!

This misconception which is often adopted by the members of both sexes is crazy and causes more jealousy and competitive behavior than anything. The truth is that just because you like someone does not mean everybody else does too. To think this is a complete delusion! This also causes people to act in haste and ask people out before they are ready, phone complete strangers to check up on what they are doing at all hours of the night and accuse personally innocent friends of trying to steal your man!

 

Oh No, He Doesn’t Do No!

Okay I am still stewing because I am not being left alone by a guy even though we only had one first date about a month ago. It turns out that he was a guy that “doesn’t do no.” You know what I am talking about – the guy whose Daddy told him never to take NO for answer or he is an inferior male or the Guy who spent hours studying the Secret (boy that book sucks) and now thinks that when people say no to him that it is somehow the failure of soul.

I went out on just one little old date with this one guy and it you would think that I have ruined his entire life or something. It was only one single dinner, (if that is what you call Pizza Palace) and afterwards I emailed him and said I just wasn’t interested and thanks I had a nice time. I handled it this way to be polite as a mutual friend set us up and I was trying to nip in the bud before I had a drama on my hands.

Of course the minute Mr. Never Say No got my email he got affronted and shot back an email asking me why. Never one to mince words I sent him back a more detailed accounting of my reasons including the phrase “I am not attracted and I don’t think we are compatible.” I only did this to be honest as we met through a matchmaking friend and I really think it was a fair to say we didn’t click. Isn’t rejection part of dating sometimes?

Well he has been acting the obsessed clown in that Seinfeld episode where Elaine gets stalked ever since. He keeps emailing me and phoning and leaving messages about knowing why and where he went wrong. He’s talking like we have been married for fifty years and like I suddenly decided to blindside him with a divorce.

Well, it has been over a months and the mutual is still approaching me and saying things like, “Do know what you did to Sean? He is really hurt.” I really don’t understand. I am also starting to feel a lot like a product that was sold to someone and then didn’t live up to its guarantee of having sex with him or something.

The really ironic thing is that he is also accusing me, of all things – LYING to him. It’s not like I told him I loved him on the first date or anything. If anything he is lying to himself by making so much of so little.

Isn’t the first thing you kind of learn in kindergarten that when someone says, “No, I don’t want to play with you.” – that you respect it. You don’t make the person play with you! However that is exactly what these two are doing – trying to make me play when I don’t want to! EW!

I am really wondering when all of this is finally going to end. I guess that

some people just can’t take no for an answer.
