Am I a chauvinist piglet? I have been asking myself this question all week.
Why is it that when a man calls me, I will look at the number and allow him to leave an answering machine message at least once before picking up the phone the next time he makes contact?
Why is it I am not as picky with women as I am with men?
Why must most men be a perfect 10 before I will give them the time of day, whereas with women I will give leeway due to emotions? I'm not a perfect 10. Why should I expect those traits in someone else which I do not possess myself? I mean, do emotions really matter? Are women really such complex creatures so I tell myself it is okay to treat them differently?
I am honestly the type who can completely disconnect from men without batting an eye after a friendship ends (yes, I'm horrible. *gasp* I even forget names.) but is it really fair of me to not act the same way where women are concerned?
I was watching a movie a few months ago. I can't honestly remember the name of it now, but I did remember the following Michael Douglas line:
"The person who is in control in any given relationship is the person who cares the least."
What a brilliant fucked up analogy. So true, don't you think?
I just wish I was the type who didn't give a crap at all. Life would be so lovely!
I was told the other day I am a perfect contradiction. Someone who hides her feminine side but who, in quite a few ways, is actually very feminine. Someone who at times can be very sexual but who constantly suppresses her passion. Someone who writes a serious blog, but who in real life is actually the complete opposite.
Just where am I going with this?
I think there is a part of me who no longer wants to hide that part of me most people don't get close enough to ever see. I think I need more men in my life. I want more friends.
I definitely don't need any more whack jobs!
Yes, I see a new me in the works.
Times are definitely changing.

Well, if we're voting on what your new blog theme will be, I vote a delightful potpourri of your interesting RL stories and you releasing the comediene in you that you're holding hostage!
You're a natural born storyteller, you know. :)
Oh, and Mummy should get a cameo every now and then.
signed,
Top Dog
:)
Just because you have high standards and want to hold men to the same does not make you weird. We men too often want a woman that's a 10 when we are only a 5.
Uber- Do you realize by claiming mummy status you would have had to give birth to me at the age of 4?
P.S.- Nobody will ever come between me and my top dog ever again. :)
Liam- I'm confused. Lol.
So are you saying it is okay for me to want somebody who is a 10 because I am a 5?
Ha! Let's see how well you answer that question!
I can understand what you're saying..I think you feel that way simply because you are more attracted to women. I know bi women who only like very gorgeous women, but men they are not so picky about, because they are more attracted to men in the general sense.
I have heard that line from Michael Douglas. So true..so true. The key is ACTING like you don't give a shit. lol You are definitely very funny and should explore that side on your blog too.
Jlee- *Ponders over what you just said*
Wow. Sounds like I'm fucked.
Excuse me while I consult the psycho dictionary so I can turn into a sociopath. :)
You've got a great sense of humour - I'd love to see more of it here:)
As for the men/women thingy...I'm a bit like you in that men have to work harder with me to get recognition.
I keep a lot of the real me hidden, too. (Unless I've had a drink or three, then watch out!) x
LOL
I meant cameos for your mummy as in YOUR mother[not me!] hahahahaha
I love it when you talk about your Mummy-she sounds delightful and should be making regular appearances on your blog.
* waves to Leech* :)
* I love you two bitches btw
Now outta my way,bitches.
Who is Liam?????
Elaine- I know what you mean. Once I went out to some bar and a very nice man told me he wanted to buy me a drink because I was the funniest person in the bar. Because I had a few beers under my belt, I looked at him and said ," I can only take you up on such an offer if you also buy my friends a drink." I don't think he was laughing when he woke up the next day and checked his visa card bill. There were about 15 of us who went out together that night. :)
Uber- I think I've scared him away. Why do all the nice ones always leave skidmarks?
Don't be confused I am agreeing with your right to be a chauvinist. You mention that you want a ten when you don't feel that you're a ten yourself. Well every man wants a ten regardless of his number.
Liam- I am confused though. That is the reason for the post. I'm not like most women I know. I'm like a hunter. The chase is what turns me on. If I get what I'm hunting, I become unsatisfied.
I like the chase more then the capture. Is that normal?
A lady I once knew made a really accurate statement about how I feel about love.
"The minute a person has no fear the person they are with will not be hit on by someone else, the passion dies."
So true, don't you think?
"skidmarks" lol
Hi Ubermommy! ha
You're type O+ right? My favorite.
I know what Liam is saying..that there are a lot of men (I work with one) who want a supermodel but they are Humpty Dumpty. Even tv shows and movies often have shleppy guys with the hot wives/love interests.
I am not the mummy! Godm this is how rumours start. :)
I know what you mean'L', or movies where the guy is 67 and his love interest is 23.
Don't worry Uberboobs! All secrets are good with me.
I won't tell Jlee you are on your period right now either. :)
You bitch!Just announce it to the whole WWW.
Have I told you I love you today mummy?
This is kind of off the topic but when you get a chance Shelly check this woman out , I think you might like what she has to say ..

I think life is looking up for you - by the way I am a clear ten in most womens eyes ... ;-)
You could always set your fire alarms off. That would bring more men into your life, Shelly.
;-)
Xena- I haven't seen you around in ages. Thanks for the link. Where have you been hiding?
Mutley- Kind men are sexy Mutley so I'm certain it does make you a 10.
Kevin- I don't know that would work so well for me since I'm an ex-firefighter. My luck, I'd be turned into somebody's soap bitch in prison. :)
HaHa .. ;o)
Looking into breeding birds imagine that ..
Why aren't you allowing comments on your latest post?
Xena- don't make the same mistake I did. You can't just put two birds in a cage and make them love on another. The little bastards are picky!
Liam- To be honest with you, I have a psycho who has been stalking my blog. For some reason, this person is arrogant and assumes that they are so significant that I would waste every word on them when I could honestly give a flying fuck anymore.
So I shut down comments because I knew this person would assume the post was about them when it actually was about my ptsd being triggered. You see, this glorious asshole now likes to read my blog and then use my name on their blog because of their own psycho issues and bullshit.
Thanks for commenting btw. I'm okay. I just need to catch up on my sleep. I'm all out of whack!
no wonder why I'm always leaving messages and never able to talk to you....... huh.
Cunning- Well if you changed your name from cunning linguist to cunnilingus perhaps I'd pick up the fucking phone!
