| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/20/2005 3:12:29 PM | "Strength doesn't have to flex, flaunt, bully or impress, doesn't even have to speak. "
...In the past, intimidation, impressing, and to flex or flaunt power over another person or group was a very MALE thing to do. The business of intimidation and flaunting the power that came from overcoming rivals was a key determinant of attracting females. This age has passed or changed in form, sports team do try to intimidate their opponents and men love it. Women just love the winners. They say they are not impressed but this is Not what women do.
"Someone intimidated by that would not interest me."
It amazes me that for so many picky women who say they won't tolerate this or that about a male, they are left so totally alone at sites like this. With a divorse rate of 50% and such a demending nature, its a wonder that women find mates at all. All you women need to get real. Just because men have the desire for sex that is so strong, don't think that means you can just pick any "perfect" selection of a man and hold him with sex. Sooner or later, this perfect man that loves sex will try for another younger woman and leave you cold.
Go ahead find a good man here.....get started now. | |

We never argue about who leads. I know I do.
Don’t walk in front of me, I may not follow, Don’t walk behind me, I may not lead, Just walk beside me and be my friend.
All you women need to get real
Thanks for the tip.

For the record - need is NOT permanent.
Needs change far more easily than wants.
When I was born, I needed oxygen. That is still true today. I still need food and shelter. But in the mean time, I've been through a long list of different wants.
You have needs and wants mixed up. | |

alllivealone, u sound "bitter", if all a man has 2 offer is just sex there's a problem right there, I doubt that every woman on this site is "lonely", I'm not...just like it's untrue that every woman is tryin 2 hold a man with sex, did u know that women r more likely 2 be offered sex on a daily basis than males r?????, as a matter of fact, u may not know this but, women can get it as often as they want and usually from whomever they want, so y hold a guy 4 sex when she can get it elsewhere????? and so what if a guy leaves a woman 4 a younger 1, guess what! older women can get just as many younger males, so what's ur point?????????????????? | |

| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/20/2005 7:57:00 PM | Strong women don't intimidate me. But they do sometimes annoy me if they are trying to be the man on the date, or the relationship or whatever. It is the lack of femininity that turns us off. That has nothing to do with intimidation. But it might be more acceptable to the clueless to think that.
Conversely, you can ask why so many girls are intimidated by nice (pushover) guys. haha..they aren't. They simply aren't attracted. | |

| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/20/2005 8:06:30 PM | | It's nice to hear that there are some men who are attracted to strong women.. I didn't set out in life to be that way, it just happened... I think it's called the "school of life"--where you learn that you're the only person you can ever truly count on... Who knows>? | |

| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/20/2005 8:41:25 PM | | DarkT.. I agree with your last sentence...but does a man really want a needy, clingy woman who can't make a decision to save her life? | |

| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/20/2005 9:03:39 PM | A strong woman never gives them what they expect and I'd have to see IT before I could commit to clinging! | |

Independent women are great. Mentally strong women are great. In fact, only a mentally strong woman with high self-esteem can accept the real process by which she can feel attraction for a man. In a way it's like coming full circle with how you are hard-wired.
A strong woman is one who isn't lying to herself when she looks deep inside herself in order to recognize what she actually finds attractive in a man. IF she's honest she will recognize that she does in fact want a man stronger and more dominant than her, to mate and bond with. It might not jive with what she is told she should want by societies standards, but deep inside that is what she KNOWS she wants. It's the only way she can feel feminine and avoid inner conflict. | |

So sad. To actually hold out the olive branch and get ...... this. Thank you's to Xoticdeeva and Katherine001 for stepping into the breech.
I am a bit confused however. Why would a man take offense at a woman who preceives quiet strength, fortitude, and sterling character (which would be indicative of someone who doesn't need to bully, flex, flaunt or posture)? Not a man who would be interested in a 'picky' woman certainly. A 'picky' woman might actually expect quiet strength, fortitude, and sterling character from her 'man' and then perhaps 'someone' might not rise to the occasion. It's a further caveat that these same "someone's" would have difficulty understanding that there actually are 'strong' women who won't have a man in their life just to have -- a man. Quality over quantity any day - any day. | |

| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/21/2005 8:03:17 AM | strong wimmin are awesome, they tell you what they need, they can sit straight on their own barstool, and they take good care of themselves. a man with the strength an confidence to hold her in his arms and honestly be loved by her can truly fly. nothing can stand in such a parnterships way or drag them down. most importantly, one never has to carry the other. on the flipside, there are a lot of females who label themselve as a " Strong Woman " who are nothing more than some ditzy chics who got kicked around by some jackazz ex. they turn into pushy cracker heads who are determined to run a guys life and lay all their baggage on a mans back cause god knows her panties are a bag of gold. the problem is , its hard to figure out which is what til you invest some time in a girl, and check her out both in your life and her natural habitat. ......... and if you run screaming from some crazy, pushy crackerhead chic wearing combat boots, a "militant femenist" t-shirt, bradindishing a castrating blade, then your just intimidated by strong wimmin. jesus help us all. lol | |

| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/21/2005 8:30:18 AM | | True strength of character is attractive in both men and women. Some people would like to believe they are strong but they are really obnoxious bullies trying to blame their problems on others instead of looking within themselves. Saying "I intimidate people because I'm strong and they're weak -- it's their fault" is not evidence of strength of character. | |
|
| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/21/2005 8:55:46 AM | | What Linguatic said. People with strong characters are not intimidating. They don't feel the need to assert themselves for their greater glory. It's the ones who prize strength for the sake of itself that are repulsive. | |

| Intimidation and Strong Women Posted: 12/21/2005 9:03:22 AM | The meaning of strong is being twisted quit a bit here. A strong woman, or a strong man, does not rely on intimidation.
Anyone who uses intimidation tactics to bully people, in order to get what they want out of life is NOT strong. Intimidation is used by people who lack self esteem and feel fulfilled only when they can dominate over someone. A man, or woman who is truly strong knows how and when to be strong, when to be understanding, it also entails being strong for others around you when they may need your strength. Being strong also means allowing yourself to cry on someone's shoulder when you need it. Being strong has nothing to do with intimidation. Anyone who uses intimidation is extremely weak. | |
