Many people think that women in the United States weren't allowed to vote until 1920. This is not true: women could always vote, they just never did because they were too busy putting on makeup and thinking about boys.
I love it, I leave the men's thread for a moment and I come back and the main topic is high heels!
Oh, gosh, is that you sis? I still don't know why the Vans were such a horrible idea, I mean, at least they were the color of the dress! :pQuote:

If Night is correct in saying that women get their ideas from us men, then perhaps she would not to do well to bash us further. :p
[QUOTE=AimusSage] I have to disagree with virgil. Most women wear what they wear to impress other women more than they care about attracting men. We men just reap the benefits. Although no doubt there are women that wear the clothes just to attract men, but these ladies probably do it because it's their work.[/GUOTE]
I also disagree with Virg,not neccessairly we wear high heels to attract men! One proof(if it really counts as a proof:D) yesterday I attended a gathering only for females and I wore high heels?why coz: 1. the kind of cloths I wore match more with heels(as if men can understand this :lol: ) and 2. because I knew that there is no going to be lots of walking! So, I wear heels for conditions as such!!and so do women. But ,yes,there are women who wear them to attract men, remmebr ,no generalization.
Agree with Aimus, yes many women wear them to win over anothers ,remmebr again, no generalization.
Imp . question:
What do men wear to attract women??:lol: jeans?! Poor they! If someone is n't handsome or doesn't have a charisma ,how can he find his way!:lol: ,kiddin , I know all the blablabla about it depends!
Here's my model for the extreme handsome man: (also my fiancé (if he by any chance checks this page) what do u think ,girls?

Men certainly do not physically force women to wear high heels, but the society which first encouraged women to wear them was a patriarchal one, and therefore the standards of beauty came from men. This doesn't mean that men force their wives to wear high heels, it simply means that, by virtue of patriarchy, girls are taught from birth that in order to look beautiful they must wear a certain type of uncomforatble shoe and wear make up and things of that sort. (Radical feminism is the norm among my female friends, if you were wondering where I'm pulling these ideas from.)Quote:

i love wearing heels, i wear them at least twice a week. when i first started wearing them, they were a bit uncomfortable, but now i am completely comfortable in them. i don't wear them for men, really, i just am a petite girl and i feel a lot better about myself when i'm taller. so i guess my point is that not all women wear heels to feel sexy for men.
sorry guys, i just wanted to weigh in on the debate about heels. i promise never to post in this all male thread again! :p
No no, by all means, do. Feel free to pop in from time to time.
In heels. :D
High heels reminds me of the ancient Chinese custom of foot binding. Of course it is not so severe as that but still...I am sure many women did not choose that path as it is started when an individual was a child. Standards of beauty (and also class...only the wealthy families could afford to bind a female child's feet...as that child would then become unable to walk without assistance) dictated this custom. I am sure there are folks with more knowledge of this issue than I so I won't go into more about it.
Yes, I used to like heels when I was a teenager because similiar to some others around here I am pretty short and liked the extra height. Now I just appreciate comfort. I also am not a person to like chatting on the phone...and I like videogames. Does that make me seem "manly"? :D Grunt, grunt grunt.
They've taken over, this is dreadful. What the hell is wrong with you lot? They pretend to joke about men inventing High heels and turn it into a discussion about clothes and a place to post pictures of guys - who are neither playing a sport or blowing something up!
I usually let the girls do most of the talking. It leaves me with all the time in the world to focus on more important things, hence it is only natural for women to take over.
While we men change the world, women talk about how it changes. :D
Don't look at my number of posts. It is all sorts of gibberish, and doesn't count.
Hey, I too have some pairs of heels (dont remember exactly how many), I dont wear heels often, but Ilike to keep some, and think that I too have some fabulous pairs of heels, and I can wear them whenever I like, which has never happened actually. :rolleyes:
Kath, I did see a program on Discovery about foot binding, it was a custom then, that the women having short feet (not more than 4 inches) were the most sought after, and it is really a painful process, as it actually stops the natural growth of feet. I could not take it as a fashion statement of yesteryears, it appeared to me more as torture. :eek2:
Well, I think it was more than a fashion statement...it was a custom and was to make the girl more beautiful physically. But I digress.
While Aimus was busy nattering on about something (you know how boys are) :p I decided to do something useful and post some pics of guys playing sports and blowing things up....;)

It is indeed a nice shirt...The young man wearing it is quite attractive, but he is just way too...pretty for my taste. No offense intended, but if he was my boyfriend I would be afraid of getting his hair messy or spilling something on his lovely clothes. (I am quite clumsy...) :lol:
Hair's already messy, clothes aren't that lovely. I'm PERFECT!! :lol: :goof:
Hey no fair, you ladies are posting pictures of guys on this thread....why exactly I do not know?
now Kathy on the other hand is hitting closer to home...sport, blowing up stuff, thats the idea.
10 points to Kathy;) , Minus 20 points to Miss T:p
Ah, what the heck, I'm already taken anyway! :lol: Could have been me 25 years ago, perhaps. Hee. At 46, things go different. ;)
sorry, Pen . . . i think from now on we're all going to have to be faithhful to Miss T's picture :p
Bah, I am prettier than that "man" and I have just woke up.

kilted exile-y do we have a picture of u from thewron angle, i can see into ur nostrils. i tink it needs cleaning! :-))

PLEASE PM me, partly cos iv accidentally deleted the 177 messages in my inbox so i feel llike 'shyte' (there, thats a nice way of getting round the problem of not being allowed to post swears-they come out as ******************************8 anyway! how dull!)) and partly cos i want to see who cares (no one) but also cant be bothred to find this thread, track down this post and see whose replied to it, much easier heading for the inbox. come on people, im ill. have some pity! i dont mind pity! pitys more than welcome. in fact i prefer pity to sympahty, with sympathy all you get is 'awwwww.' but with pity people act.
love u all lots (wow, i really do sound like im going to be executed)

So, Robin already has messed up hair, and Kilted has that morning look....see, no need for "too pretty" boys. Gosh! I feel better already, I would not like it if I thought a man was going to constantly use my hairstyling products.

But I just had football practice in the pouring rain!

Back to matters at hand, enough of this banter of pretty boys.:sick:
I was thinking we need a CODE OF HONOR on this thread, to govern the guys.
Chivilry, justice, honor...
*notice the structure and organisation the guys on this thread.....leaves some rather green in the face , I'd say *
check out the attachment
Do you think such guys even exist, who follow these rules :rolleyes:
WAKE UP!!!!
Ahe-he-he-hem!! :mad::cool:
Quiet the contrary my dear Maddie, its is this very 'waking up' that leads me to believe that there is still a remnant around, albeit a dying breed but a remnant non the less.
Chivalry, justice, honor.....
You tell her Robbin......:pQuote:

Note to self: walk around half naked in the winter more often.
As the ever-wise Dave Barry pointed out in his book Dave Barry's Complete Guide to Guys, there are actually three genders: male, female, and guys. We happen to be male, not displaying the lowborn immaturity of the "guy", which may be male or female. We are just extraordinary gentlemen, with special talents often mistaken for immaturity. Where else would you find a nobler group than us? We are all so unique.Quote:
