Personality is good and all. But you can't wank at personality.
There's a reason men feel excited about beautiful women. Usually a beautiful woman is healthy. Clear skin (no diseases), red lips (good blood flow), long hair (general health indicator), breast size (been said to collerate with man's requirement of having a female to feed offspring - though other species don't exhibit this sexual correlation) and so on. Different cultures have different preferences (possibly due to different environments and norms) but you can almost always see what is preferred is actually geared towards health. Recently media fucked things up, but a hint of the natural past still strives unshaken.
What's wrong with getting laid every night?
Here's a more elaborate reply to Jennie
I haven’t been participating actively in this forum for a long time, but as I inadvertently stumbled upon this thread, I couldn’t stay silent.
Classical case of provocation vulnerability.
Come on guys, some of your comments are obscenely hypocritical!! I’m even more revolted because, somehow, for an obscure reason, I’ve always considered geeks to be a (slightly) “superior” breed of men, but I’ve just been proven wrong. And come to think about it, my assumption was completely unfounded.
Having preconceptions about geeks is more like the generalization that the guys here were making. It still also horrifies me that you see us as "geeks" and just that. I've reviewed your post history. It seems, you like all the simpleton girls I've known, would rather make stereotypes to simplify your life and think less. It may work well for you (just as a cat's undiscriminating fear of large moving objects works well for it to survive more). I wouldn't call a cat really smart though. Instinctive and programmed.
Lebanese girls have been denigrated to the core in this thread, and quite frankly, I do agree that the superficiality and the “silly-cone” are getting way out of proportion. But this is not the real issue.
It’s very easy to blame one’s failures on the “other”. God knows men have been doing it since the beginning of time (metaphorically). Remember the apple?
What were you trying to say over here? So you agree that a lot of girls are becoming superficial. Doesn't that grant a lot of the guys here the right to assume that recipes would work for them. Going back to the previous point. Why shouldn't
geeks here not fascinate about stupid girls and want to have fun with them. Just because you have superficial thoughts about noble geeks?
Those of you who were admiring the openness of western women, and going on and on about London and Germany, where “you’ll get laid more often than you change your underwear”
It seems you have decided that people were getting laid when the guys were only saying girls outside are more approachable.
seem to forget that the hard-to-get-attitude many Lebanese girls exhibit are merely a reaction to their own attitude, which is, the least to be said, unworthy of praise.
Such a large phenomenon can't possibly be pinned down to one side of the other. It's as if we have two leagues. One for men and one for women, and they're in some kind of secret delibrations, each of them. Wake up. It's more of a social reality more than anything to point fingers at. The real cream here is the fact that people tend to be vindictive here. We are in a masculine community. Even the women here think in the way a women thinks in a masculine community. They marry for power. Their security is mostly ravaged through if 1) they risk their virginity or reputation and hence lose possibility of getting married 2) the social and monetary status of their candidate partners greatly affect the rest of their lives, as such they are very cautious in their choosing.
Let go of the Madonna-whore complex!! A western woman on the horny mode is sexy and knows what she wants, but a Lebanese woman with a libido is a filthy whore, and therefore, all your friends should know that you “nailed her” and maybe try their luck, considering how easy she is!
The above can be explained in terms of the previous comments. Men are sexually starved. We have excitants going everywhere. A whore literally short circuits the brain of a man on a need. You wouldn't really understand as female urges are not calls for action, males' are.
I do not wish to generalize, like many of you did, but you have to acknowledge, if you have an ounce of objectivity, that this mindset is pretty widespread, even predominant among Lebanese males.
You did generalize, you did stereotype, and you were even
disappointed by us. You were having expectations for us. You expected us to be different. Shame on you.
Now on a lighter note, I would really like the people who are trying to find a scientific approach to dating to stop doing so. We (women) are not programmed to respond in a uniform fashion to your “moves”.
The really safe move to do in this country is get a job, make some money, look for a female in a family similar to yours with similar financial status. Works every time. That at the very least proves that there does exist a scientific approach.
As I've also included somewhere earlier, women do respond to excitation. Be it a laugh, social awkwardness, power, ambition, wit, sexual attractiveness.. It has to be something, and it usually works.
And confidence when approaching a girl, in my opinion, is overrated. Alpha males (or guys pretending to be alpha males) do not appeal to everyone. I, for example, prefer shyer men, and would be much more likely to respond in a positive way to a guy who tends to act goofy in certain social settings, than to the Lamborghini-driving, cigar- smoking idiot with an ego bigger than Russia! (Plus, I do believe that men with expensive cars are trying to overcompensate, and the wise Mrs. Doubtfire puts it very well)
I know for a fact that a girl/woman that says this kind of thing is especially susceptible to being attracted to the guy with power. It doesn't have to be that idiot who has his daddy's car but a real man with work off his forehead. While females might feel comfortable around socially fun people that lighten the mood, the one that will catch her from the neck and make her heart pound will usually get the cream.
I write because I care.
