What's the point?Page 2 of 2    (1, 2)

MysticalM wasn't at all being rude... it's not her fault if you misconstrue what you read, try to twist it to suit your purpose, and end up looking like an ass. I'm afraid you did that all by your lonesome...


Mhm, just like I'm sure 'end up looking like an ass' isn't rude at all either right?
Please....the arrogance of some of you people is amazing!
You are actually telling ME that a comment directed towards ME wasn't rude, that I didn't comprehend it, what my motivations were AND how others perceive me?

Don't let the FBI get ahold of you, they've been looking for someone with your telepathic powers for decades!


On topic: Just as many men must pretend not to want sex to actually get it, many women pretend to want sex when actually they don't.

Anyway, Its all a chess match. He put down dating because if he put intimate encounter he would not be allowed to message a good percentage of chicks who dont allow messages from people looking for a intimate encounter. Dating gives him the best chance of finding what he wants.

Exactly!
If a man is honest about wanting to get laid he is immediately disqualified in the eyes of most women because wanting to have sex as you get to know someone translates into "sex is all he wants" for most women. Just as men have real trouble understanding the female perspective on sex and love, so do women misunderstand men.

I didn't mean to stir up so much dust earlier, but I just wanted the women here to understand that they really do force us men folk to lie. Any man that claims he isn't after sex is either a liar or a freak of nature.

It was the whole tone, and the generalizations in your post Deagleninja.. if you re-read it, I think you'll find that it would certainly offend most women that have an IQ higher than their shoe size. In pointing that out, you took it that MysticalM was being rude to you, when in fact you were also being rude to any self-respecting, sexually confidant woman.
I do agree that many women play games, and many women use sex as a "power" tool.. There are also many women that don't. If you were a woman on this site, I'm willing to bet you'd be disgusted with many of your own species in their approach. The OP wasn't about the dynamics of sexual clashes between women and men, it was asking why people don't use the term Intimate Encounter if that's what they're ultimately seeking, and whether or not sex itself was dead....

YOU SAID IT MY MAN! So apt. Let me also add that they want their "knight in shining armor" complete with a lance, shield and a horse, but they can be whatever? And whats with the shoulder strap down,the hanging by the bed post and the on-all-fours- pose for huh? Those are the REAL "GAMES" they get to play but won't accept any from us. WOW!

Any the same can be said for women.We just have the stigma of being considered
"s l u t s" if we are honest...,like you guys are "players" if we are honest.So we ALL wind up playing games. I know men well enough to realize,that sex is a priority.What men need to realize is that women sometimes need an emotional connection, before they put out.But we enjoy sex too and it is a part of any healthy realtionship. I don't feel like all I am good for is sex.And I would assume, men don't feel like they should have to "pay" for sex by dating.
So what's the happy medium?Honesty always helps.
Honestly....if a man was upfront about JUST wanting sex...I would not want to get involved because, I for one...need more.But alot of women don't...and they are not morally bankrupt for not needing more that instant gratification.
So....whatever you put down as your "goal" it's inevitably going to involve sex, it just depends on how long each person is willing to wait...isn't it?
I like to connect emotionally thru sex....some people don't need that to get off.
And that goes for BOTH SEXES.

The category is being intentionally phased out but it's goal is to used to primarily boost the friend count for new profiles of women. The trick is that they initially list it under intimate encounters, then they shift into dating/long term after being favourited by enough people.

Actually, I agree with this statement and this is something I've learned. I may not understand it, but I realize it. Many women for years have been going on about how "men are pigs" etc. I'm sure I could come up with a different issue for what men say about women too.

For many women it's not the sex part but rather the way many men go about it asking for it. I see no problem with just sex, but both parties NEED to be clear in their words and THEIR actions. If a man is up for some fun if that happens, he should state that in his profile or in his communications with a woman. If said with tact, I have no problem with a man asking me that. I won't be interested lol, but I won't be offended.
