Don't say "yikes"! I have feet like Michalengelo's David. In fact if i had take of my shoes in the center of city and start to swing my feet every single woman would get so affected.

Btw, i saw your car, you must be really old to use such a car! Hahahaha that must be a classic!

Seee... I knew you did. That's why i said she must have at least 5th degree dan so she will be able to protect herself!

Haha! So what!? I saw your picture, you can't even hurt a shy Panda in China (though i could keep punching that peaceful Panda's face). If you are not even able to punch a peaceful Panda, what's the meaning of having black belt? Point of black belt and all dans is having a prove of that you have the ability to beat people better than cops.

Oh please do, I'm curious. That seems like a good discussion topic. It should have its own thread though. This thread is more for kidding around than for serious topics. :)

Don't blame me - y'all (I'm learning southern talk) are the ones that brought it up!!:lol:

Im 50 years old, yea I know I'm old. But I must say that my opinion of what makes a woman beautiful or sexy has changed over the years. As a teenager it was very superficial and over the years it has morphed to something that still amazes me to this moment. Confidence, freckles, a woman that puts her children first, no make up natural beauty, a woman that likes being a woman, caring.

I agree

I also posted in the "feminism" thread that supposing that feminists don't like being women or don't find joy in womanhood (or being a girl, whichever) goes against the whole idea of what feminism really should be about...that there is nothing intrinsically wrong with being female...that being female doesn't have to be "fixed" by acting like a man. Wanting equality is not the same as wanting to change one's gender. If a Black person wishes to be treated equally, would you tell them they just want to be white? Yes, poor analogy, I know. Still, people are discriminated against because of their race and also their sex.

I think there are certain ideas (misconceptions) that people still hold about feminism, so despite whatever I say...it doesn't matter. I am a feminist...I don't hate men...I don't want to be a man...I like jewelry, shoes, lipgloss and my favorite color is pink! For real!

Self sufficiency is an adult quality....as in the ability to take care of oneself. Wanting or needing a man should be seperate from that...for romance, companionship, and so on. Isn't that why men need women? Or do men not need women?

Virgil is right, this should be a seperate topic of conversation. I won't intrude here again, just wanted to put my opinion forth.

Something for the guys (no girls).... :lol:

I've seen the no guys allowed posts too.

It's titillation (sp?) n'est pas?

I almost feel like I have to apologise here, but loved the car pic.
I've got a 2.8litre golf 4-Motion, that goes from 0-62 mph in 6 seconds. Okay, showy, showy, showy... but I love that car. Have always been a petrol-head and always been female. ;). Sorry, might not be up to date with post threads... saw the car pic and oh, yum! More sexy cars please. :)

nice car Kiobe!

I appreciate your thoughts. Yes, women should be able to take care of themselves - but sometimes I think they forget that its OK to "need" their man - because as much as a woman likes to be told that she's beautiful and that she's loved, a man likes to hear that he's needed, that he's important. That's all I'm saying. A man who said "What do you mean? I married you so I must love you and think you're beautiful! Why do I need to say so all the time?" to a woman would not be looked upon kindly (even if what he's saying is true). Do you see what I mean? I think sometimes both men and women forget how much these little things mean. We like to feel needed, respected and admired just like women like to feel beautiful, desired, loved.

That sounds like something I would say. lol. But it obvious if the guy married her he must think she's beautiful, otherwise he wouldn't. People who like to compliment too much are annoying too.
