Can We Be Honest About Women?
The Federalist ^ | 12/12/17 | D.C. McAllister

Posted on 12/13/2017 6:54:00 AM PST by x1stcav

When men are being their sexual selves, drawn to a woman’s beauty, they’re not exploiting women. They’re responding to them. The women are the fire, drawing a man toward their feminine heat.

This is true even for all those beautiful women who hook up with rich, powerful men—the “arm candy.” I was watching a Premier League soccer match the other day, and the camera focused on one of the rich owners and his wife. He was short, old, and terribly unattractive. She was a foot taller than him, with long blond hair and legs for miles. She was dressed in a fur, and diamonds graced her fingers. She didn’t look miserable at all. In fact, she looked like the cat who ate the canary. One has to ask, who here is actually exploiting whom?

“The women are the fire, drawing a man toward their feminine heat.”

As the moth to the flame.

Thanks for posting it. I very much liked and agreed with the article.

I wrote this post just yesterday regarding a liberal feminist who said: "...At bottom she views people as biologically equal..."

This is at the root of much of the insanity, stupidity, and unhappiness we see in society today. Men and women are so different in so many respects, not just biologically, but intellectually and emotionally as well, that if aliens came to earth they might well see us as different species.

This is not to say men are "better" than women, or women are "superior" to men, because each sex has their strengths and weaknesses. It is the one of the wonderful things about men and women, that we compliment each other so well. It encourages union and propagation of the species, and is meant to do just that. Together, the union of men and women make an entity far more powerful and emotionally satisfying than either of them can achieve separately.

Worse, to adopt this view that the sexes are biologically equal, one has to discount the power of sexual urges and attractions, which are perhaps two of the most powerful driving forces in nature. It is INSANITY to discount those, and damages both men and women and fills us with a cognizant dissonance when we try to pretend it isn't so.

“The mods banned one of them this week - a poster I mean, not a thread. I can already see this turning into a hateful thread. It’s not that women are perfect or anywhere near perfect. It’s about disgusting comments on women in general that repel me. The mods are so slow to wake up to this (as always). I get so many private messages from women about this and yet they’re reluctant to complain.”

It’s like hating on all of the cops because of the actions of 90% of them.

It’s because he’s a lawyer. And he knows it. If I were to go on there I would get no play at all from the gold digger generation of today.

It’s not the article I mind. It’s the future responses.


Right?

There is a THICK RED LINE between normal flirtatious human interaction between people and ABJECT SEXUAL ASSAULT.

I’m sick of normal men thinking they will be accused of something horrific and end up in jail for 50 years from saying a woman looks nice in that dress.

Geez Louise. If you aren’t whipping it out and showing how it works in the boardroom, if you aren’t holding your employee against the wall and forcing your tongue down her throat, if you aren’t petting with middle schoolers, YOU’RE GOOD!

Everybody uses their tools, no doubt about it.

Women use their attractiveness to open doors, there is no doubt about it.

But don’t discount that in men. Men use their physical appearance where they can to advance their careers, it is just that in a man, how he might use that physical appearance differs from how a man might.

I see it from both sides. I don’t see it as bad, nor good. It is. It is better to be handsome or pretty in sales than ugly or homely. Because this is how humans operate.

Well, yes, there are cop haters here, too. But how many cops contribute money here compared to women?

Explain why super duper rich “Chaz” Bono (who tweeted a congrats to Jones) is crying in its coffee at not having a love life.

I was at a business Christmas party last night. A female friend greeted me with a big hug. I quipped that we’d better stop or I might be charged with sexual harassment. She smile and said “I certainly hope so...”

Traps...are...everywhere...

With men it’s height. The top dog is always the tall dog. If the top dog is short they say he has a Napoleon complex. And silvery, executive style hair, as Scott Adams once put it in Dilbert.

He didn’t say “offended”, he said amused. And it was perfectly reasonable. He said he was in his mid 50s and had women in their 30s throwing it out there on the website.
He said he was ok, but not some greek god...so he knew exactly is attracting them.

No need to be obtuse toots.

“Well, I guess you know yourself best.”

Oh, how original! A put down on the guy when he shows he understands the chick game. Typical.
You do realize men laugh at little snarks of disdain like that in response to calling out the female mercenaries...right?
