Well put.

Along the lines of what you said, an unadorned woman in her natural state is one of the most beautiful things in existence. They can add things like nice clothes, jewelry, makeup and so on that sometimes enhance their beauty, but a feminine woman in her natural state can be be heartstoppingly, achingly and wonderfully beautiful, especially if the inner workings of that woman radiate outward.

Those inner workings, the head on her shoulders, can take a plain looking woman and make her brilliantly attractive, and can make an attractive woman a magnet for men...we can see that radiating outwards in them, sometimes more plainly than the outside forms of their bodies. Ever see a woman at a party that the guys have gravitated to? It isn’t always because she is drop-dead gorgeous or easy to get in bed, it is often because she simply likes and understands men, and our antennae pick that up and are attracted to it.

I have always viewed women as a civilizing force on men. Call me old fashioned, but many guys have an inherently primitive, un-commonsensical side to our composition.

I guess it has to do with testosterone.

Most honest guys can watch a movies like “Jackass” and acknowledge that deep down inside, we have all had at least some element of that stupid recklessness inside of us. Whether it was one crazy thing we did at eight, eighteen or twenty eight, or a series of things in your life, it is often a miracle any of us made it to adulthood. Sometimes, when I tell my wife about some of the crazy, stupid things on my journey through life, she exclaims she never did anything like that, and very few of the girls she knew did.

So I have always appreciated the role that women have always had in making us better men. They do. (at least the GOOD women)

Nowadays, women seem to want to demonstrate that they can be as stupid and reckless as men sometimes are. They want to show they can be mean, brutal, promiscuous and venal just like men, and often in the same ways. We all know they are capable of it, but the concept of consciously doing it to show some kind of twisted, perverted equality is disgusting. I find it appalling.

I blame it on the feminist movement.

I see this tattooing, piercing and mutilation of their own bodies in this same light. There are exceptions, of course, but I don’t think any of it is good in the long run.
