Posted: 12/7/2007 2:26:46 AM | | I'm not shallow (at least not in my eyes).....I just have my own preferences. I dont replay to someone that doesnt have a photo. They emailed me obviously out of some level of attraction. I think I should have the right to see whether or not I'm attracted to them as well. | |

Oh the topic.... yeah, women are just as shallow... they just get away with it better. Preferences and all. | |

Are you kidding? Women are way more shallow than men. Most average women on here would be getting countless emails and they still remain on this site single.
Put it this way, a male with a certain social status would be getting a lot less emails than a female with the same social status. It has nothing to do with the numbers game (myth) as you have to think about each city or country or geographical location where some places may have more women than men and other places may have more men than women or it may be close to equal numbers for some. But the dating situation is no different in the real world either.
If most men had as many opportunities and options as most women have in this site, I don't think these men would be on this site for more than a couple of weeks. But you see the same women on here for months or years and out of the 1000s of men who approached them, not one of them men met their standards.
Obviously, the average man is less desirable to women than the average woman is to men | |

Nope...he's cranky every morning - and the other 20 hours of the day. So's Xeno. I think they should all start a "women are the root of all evil" club...and take it global. | |

I just wanted to know, are women just as shallow, as men?...i mean i think they are, when you think about all the women that won't reply to a guy that doesn't have a photo, or the women that do correspond, to a guy that doesn't have a photo andthey nd messages and IM, and when the guy eventually sends a photo the correspondence stops onthe females part, even though they both know the woman was interested in the man personalit wise, and o course you have the women that only are interested in a guy that has a certain economic status, regardless of how the guys is, so waht do you think?
It's all about "perspective".
What's "shallow" to one person, is "smart" to another.

There is no doubt in my mind that women are more shallow then men. This shouldn't even be a question. | |

Really? I didn't get the memo.
I guess if your personality is akin to a jellyfish or piece of plastic, you can say whatever you want about some guy.
That's okay. I adhere to principles and values but you can be as shallow as you like. It's your life. | |

Oh p-lease, will somebody get these people to look up the meaning of shallow. Even the animal species look for a good mate, because the whole reason for coupling is succesfull reproduction, it's instinctive, it's natural to look for the best in a partner. It's only the few odd people who claim they are 'beyond' looking for physical attraction, and this really doesn't make sense to me since they are the ones who tend to message all the reasonably attractive people. Shallow does NOT mean not looking to find someone physically appealing, it means not having the DEPTH to see the person beneath the persona. You are probably more shallow than most of the people on here, because you go around labeling people when you know absolutely nothing about them. | |

Posted: 12/8/2007 2:56:00 PM | What does not replying to someone with no photo have to do with being shallow. Do you usually not look at anyone when you are out in public ? Do you let no one look at you? I don't know about you but most normal people with sight enjoy and need to be able to know what someone looks like. I don't want to be on a date with someone who is hidden behind a panel so why would i care to talk to someone with no photo up?
I always wonder why people are so embarrassed to put up a photo on a dating site. Why are you so afraid for others to find out you are dating? If you are single then the likelihood of you dating is pretty high. Most of us would naturally assume that a single person dates , so why the embarrassment ? This is just one more way for single people to meet others to date.
As for whether or not woman are as shallow as men , well some women are as shallow as some men. There is no gender that is better then the other . There are some equally scummy people in both.

Xeno as a poster once told you on another thread you really should bite the bullet and start riding the c0ck. I think that is an excellent idea for you.Why someone who despises and demonizes women wants to date them is beyond me. | |

I would probably have to agree with you on this one, though I'm never one to generalise | |

Perhaps, YOU don't understand what shallow is. Yep, methinks, that's it!
It's ironic that everyone who is always defending being shallow or denying they are, always point out the 'animal instinct' and defend their behavior that way. So, you wake up, look for food, peck the ground and go to sleep after? Interesting.
Shallow than most of the others? Yeah, right. I am conscious whenever thinking someone is attractive and I don't go around defending myself or having pride about it. That is just one difference. It's something you wouldn't understand since where your instincts lie are more akin to creatures in zoos. | |

Lmao, so you are admiting you know when you find someone attractive, yet you are condemning the rest of us for it and calling us animals? I think that spells out plainly who is shallow and who is not. Please, do look up the meaning, rather than basing all your facts on the film Shallow Hal. I think you will find that there are quite allot of deep people out there who still readily admit to finding physical attraction important, and they also have the depth to realise it is natural, and not a decision they make consciously, yes, that's because they have a level of intelligence high enough to want to understand the real workings of people rather than just form their own narrow minded opinions. Ah to be perfect, yet some of us are apparently? | |

Posted: 12/9/2007 6:42:05 AM | | i just think it's rude not to at least respond to someone's email..but that's the same thing the guys do too...everyone has their preference so i wouldn't consider it being shallow if they wanted a pic but the girl as i said should at least respond after that when she received the pic..obviously this girl has a certain look she wants in a guy and it's very important to her..i wouldn't take it personally...move on and find someone who is truly interested..perhaps if you posted your pic on the profile in the first place..it would have spared you from being dropped out of the blue like this. | |

Posted: 12/9/2007 7:36:31 AM | Is this thread deep or shallow?
It bemuses a fellow!
How deep is a creep???
Would a fondness for sheep
named yvonne or
phillipe,
qualify one for the genre?
Well I've wandered and squandered,
I've dreamed and I've pondered,
but one thing I've learned above all.
As a view of the whole
or a description of soul,
well one pic's just one click
in a chorus.
Songs and words charm the birds
and reveal the absurds
or why you shouldn't abhor us.
And adherence to appearance,
is a source for incoherence
as solid as a shade upon a wall.
So if looks are all you've got,
well a lot you have not,
for in weeks you wont see them at all.......
But oh for such sensate baby making weeks which left you both soul sated..sentient.. weak... yet so strong among the memories
Sometimes it's lovely being a genius when the muse wants to play and my soul and I remember why we love her so deeply and dearly
copyright to me 10/12/'07 AESDT don't care what you do with it though as long as I get a mention, lol | |

Posted: 12/9/2007 10:07:03 AM | | Some adhere to that, some do not. I think though that a person that claims they aren't looking at the "looks" get labeled as "must be fat and ugly." Some are too concerned about what others think about who they're with. Some think that if a person chooses to be with someone with a "lower looks level" according to society's standards that they must have a self-esteem problem. Intelligence and depth of character is not something immediately seen. In order to find women that will look for that in you, you need to look for women that have that. As you judge, so shall you be judged. | |

Posted: 12/9/2007 10:51:26 AM | | I won't say women are more shallow, but I will be the first to point out that the fair sex has certainly ratcheted up the requirements for men in recent years, while not offering much in return (in California, so I will always give preferance to women from another state who now live here). I'm just not into checking off a list of hurdles to jump to get a date, starting off with height and looks. Prisons are full of great looking men, and they are there for a reason. | |

Posted: 12/9/2007 11:23:02 AM | | Completely. Some women are just as if not more shallow then men. However I find it's way more prevalent in men then women. A stereotypically good looking male and a stereotypically not good looking male often have standards for women which are very similar. However you take women and most (not all mind you, but most at least that I have met) Fit themselves into (and as bad as this sounds I know my wording isn't the greatest) categories of what they can and can not get. A less pretty women (again in my experience) would not turn down a guy who wasn't perfect and just wait to find one who was deciding they were entitled to stereotypical perfection. Men tend to dictate who gets to date what type of guy often putting themselves in to the same category as men "higher" then them on that silly societal dictated looks and status ladder. | |

In my book, if you look like a creep, you probably are.
It's only logical that someone who thinks like this would tell others about it.
Thanks for the laugh. | |

1. I mentioned this in another thread - that list isn't new, it's just easier to see now that people can post it in a profile. Women have had a list of requirements in their heads for years...and so have a lot of men.
2. There's no statistical connection between good looking men and the possibility of them becoming prison inmates. That's a new one - funny too. Ridiculous but funny. | |

I find it's the exact opposite, not surprisingly more so on this site then in real life. | |
