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?

Damned well reasoned and written. A bit of sanity in the midst of the sexual harassment craze.

All of Life is a, ‘barter’ in one form or another, for men and women. Some are simply dealt a better hand of cards, or are more skillful at playing them. ;)

With a title like that, I can just imagine what this thread is going to shape up as...

Women want all the equality of men today, but also flirt all they want without sexual harassment charges. Double standard?

No one who is rich enough to own a soccer team can be unattractive.

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

As a society, we need to encourage both sexes to become comfortable with who they are naturally and all the messy, uncomfortable, stumbling, tantalizing, and glorious twists and turns that come with it. Men and women need to show each other grace and respect as they engage as sexual beings in whatever sphere they interact.

Men and women need to show each other grace and respect as they engage as sexual beings in whatever sphere they interact.

It would help if we assumed the best of each other instead of the worst. Let men love a woman’s beauty, and let a woman delight in a man’s competence and success. This is part of the dance between the masculine and the feminine, and we’d be miserable if we stopped it.

Exactly. Instead, our perverse, sodomized, leftist culture demands that we all assume the worst of each other.

Here’s a simple reality — large numbers of men enter high-status professions (such as entertainment and politics) in part or even primarily to gain access to beautiful women. Large numbers of men achieve wealth in part or even primarily to gain access to beautiful women. Large numbers of men who enter high-status professions or gain wealth for good and virtuous reasons soon become corrupted by access to beautiful women. As we’ve learned, some men even become so-called ‘male feminists’ primarily to gain the trust of beautiful women.

Very true. It's genetically hard-wired in us.

Women want to get the most "fit" man they can. Men strive to demonstrate "fitness" (as shown by status and wealth) in order to attract the most desirable women ("Beauty" is an indicator of health and physical fitness. Men prefer younger women because they have their best reproductive years ahead of them).

Even in homosexual relationships there are masculine and feminine roles and they too revolve around sex appeal and power. It’s ridiculous to hope, or expect, to quash this dynamic. I suspect the other 57 genders also have some version of this same animation.

Some harlots are day workers. Some like lifetime benefits.

The strong sexual attraction, reaching into unwantedness, impoliteness, injurious force, is because Mother Nature can’t afford for one of her species to disappear because they didn’t mate.

I see it in simple terms. If you do something to someone that they don’t want, that’s a bad thing and you’re being bad. If you seek to attract someone in order to take advantage of them, that’s also a bad thing and you’re being bad.

Having such people in leadership positions is an especially bad thing.

Any man in a position that meets one on one with any woman is in jeopardy at any time in the future. Any allegation presented by a woman is accepted as gospel and there is no defense.

BECAUSE EVERYONE KNOWS WOMEN DO NOT LIE!

Shades of Ben Franklin.

What is missing from this discussion is men. Men who have 100 million "swimmers" in pursuit of one egg a month.

This article rings true with me. I’m 55, divorced, a lawyer. I’m on a dating website. It cracks me up how many attractive women twenty to thirty years younger than me send me messages asking me to text them.

I’m not the hideously ugly troll boy, conversely, I’m also not the bronzed god of masculinity standing astride the harbor of femininity like a huge sexual colossus, but come on - what could they possibly have in common with me that would make me attractive enough to email me their phone number and ask me to text them?

Don’t answer. I already know.

Yep, that’s why I’ve been taking these Salem Witch trials with a grain of salt.
I’m too old and experienced and I’ve SEEN women “ho” themselves out willingly then scream “foul” when things don’t work out.

I’m certainly not going to object, though I do think many men enter high-status professions to best other men in their field of expertise, not just to get beautiful women.

I'm not so sure about that. If the only reward for being the top attorney in town is denting the ego of that jerk Eddie Smith from law school, we would probably rather stay home on the couch watching the Giants. :)

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Even that doesn’t really matter. You can spend years working never to get stuck alone with anyone you don’t trust, and then someone could still claim impropriety regardless. If it’s a lie, it’s a lie either way, whether you were alone with them and nothing happened or if you were never alone with them but they still claim so. At the moment, the standards between the law and the court of public opinion are very very far apart.

I’m not saying that powerful men don’t get taken down by political hitjobs of false claims, nor am I suggesting that rich men don’t get sued for false by false allegations for out of court settlements (legal extortion), because that would be naive. But a lot of these guys currently in the spotlight are there because they have some major patterns... the kind that you can’t fake even with the most well orchestrated of conspiracies. Some men just treat women like crap. Karma takes time, sometimes.

Like all liberals and socialists/communists feminists want all the benefits but no responsibility. That is called selfishness.
