    AW Nightie, I forgot that you had those special powers!

    So where have all the men skipped off to? There are questions here that need answering!
    I'm weary with right-angles, abbreviated daylight,
    Waiting for a winter to be done.
    Why do I still see you in every mirrored window,
    In all that I could never overcome?

They tend to bring out the male protective side which can be a very strong attraction; unless you are in favour of the big brassy type of woman who is always trying to impress with masculine qualities which, I think you will agree, should be the province of men.
    On the other side of the coin, the same goes for those effeminate men who try to behave like women.
    Ahhh... short tall, I've had 'em all.

    One of the advantages of being 6'3" is that most women like to have a boyfriend taller than them, which tends to open the field up to any woman not playing professional basketball!



    Other than grotesquely skinny or fat, body shape isn't high on my list, but I do like those tall slim ones.

    Agree. I find that sickening, actually.

    One does not "yell" in a quality establishment. One never needs to, and it disrupts the string quartet.

    You're in the wrong forum.

    I'd lay enormous odds that no participant in this thread would ever do such a thing. Now, if you want to go to some forums where the males do carry on like that, I can direct you to ask the question there.

    (The answer as to why they do it, is because they're a sub-species of humanity which hasn't evolved past the cave-bear mating ritual yet.)

    Prefrences of body shape are cultural as well.
    In the Iliad I notice that the women of Troy were "deep bosomed", which is still the preferred body shape in that area . Then on the Greek side of the we have Queen Arete of the "slim ankles". denoting a slender ideal.

    Has a Gentleman's preferment with regards to breasts anything to do with the size of his Mother's bosom? Or is that a "don't even go there" scenario.

    Looking at the size and extent of the recent invasion by girls, I would like to quote an earlier post of mine in this thread:

    I am a little embarrassed that some (will not name names but I am sure they know who they are) are claiming to be men and post in this thread pretending to be men! That is very disappointing.

    Why, oh, why would anyone to pretend to be men? Want to be a man?

    We have to give it to the guys that even if occassionally they post in the Coffee thread, none of them come in high heels and say things like "Why do my nails keep chipping? Should I have caramel or light blond highlights? Does my bum look big in this?"

    I might even propose that those who have made that unfortunate choice get banned from the "girls-only" thread for a week or so!

    I'm told Parker is so concerned at the Swine Flu pandemic that he has brought a full crate of Macallans from the cellar!

    Oriental vs Occidental Women

    Over a long and misspent life, I have had the good fortune to know women from Oriental and Occidental countries. I have always had a soft spot for the Madame Butterfly delicacy of Japaneses women, as well as oriental women in general, who seem to be more subtle than their western counterparts.
    Given that many members of the Bloke's thread are too young to have experienced the Lotus Blossom effect, are there any of the more experienced members who are able to put forward a personal opinion on this issue.

    I agree some of them do have a china-doll quality, but it's never attracted me.

    I have a couple of mates who will only date Asian women.

    The thing with Oriental women is that they are incredibly sexy to begin with, but as soon as they hit forty they have a tendency to transform into Yoda...

    They can easily go from this:



    practically over night to this:

    "I should only believe in a God that would know how to dance. And when I saw my devil, I found him serious, thorough, profound, solemn: he was the spirit of gravity- through him all things fall. Not by wrath, but by laughter, do we slay. Come, let us slay the spirit of gravity!" - Nietzsche
