War of the Sexes

I keep clicking through two different threads to read the back and forth between the ladies here and the gentlemen. I figured a central war of the sexes place would make things easier. Well, for me. lol
From what I have read today we have a few central themes happening.
Nice guy vs. bad boy
Douches
Women overanalyze
Why guys can't ever say what they mean and instead we have to translate
Why do guys ignore the nice girls and go for the crazy b*tches???? (I really want to know this)
I know there are other but I am interested in what really gets you about the opposite sex.

And what does this mean:
I get told all the time how beautiful/hot/attractive/whatever I am but I'm hardly approached by men (not including online). I end up hearing the reason is because I'm so intimidating.
WTF does that mean? I know I have some nice guns but ****, I didn't think they would scare the menz away. :ohwell:0 -

I get told I am intimidating too. Men very very very rarely approach me. I guess it is the idea of rejection.0 -

LOL .. I think that the nice guy/bad boy and the boys go for crazy b!tches is the same topic. It is all about the challenge. To make the untameable .... tamed. Boys always complain that we go for the bad boys .. but .. um .. hellllooooooo pot meet kettle! They go for the bad girls! When the girl acts like the "bad boy" .. the guy goes crazy for her! I had a conversation with DM about this once .. emotionally unavailable, nonrelationship wanting, hot sex girl will get the guy every time. No?0 -
Thanks for posting... I'm so bored at work today I could cry.
The attractive thing about the "bad boy" is confidence, it just takes some of us a while to learn to decipher the difference between "confidence" and "arrogance". And then you have women like me, who can't date the "too nice" guys, because I'll just walk all over them-- and that is actually not at all what I want in a relationship. So I look for a "stronger" personality, and have, on occasion, misjudged a bit.Nice guy vs. bad boy
I admit I use this term a lot-- but certainly not indiscriminately. The last time I did was in reference to a friend's ex-whatever... who dates 2-3 girls at a time, drags his 12-year-old daughter along when he goes to get hammered, and doesn't particularly care that she's walked in on him with various women. 100% deserved, yeah?Douches
Yeah... it's how we're wired. Some more than others. As long as we're pretty self-aware and can keep a handle on the crazy, it's not that awful really.Women overanalyze
People {men} love to say dudes don't play games, but that is such BS. Actual honesty is discouragingly hard to find.Why guys can't ever say what they mean and instead we have to translate
We're all crazy, it's just the degree that varies. What I'll never understand is the guy who dates the girl who insists she's NOT CRAZY AT ALL EVER -- because those are the craziest chicks of all.Why do guys ignore the nice girls and go for the crazy b*tches????0 -

Women make poor choices in the men they date then bash all men for the sins of another.( I tell women all the time I'm not Jesus, I'm not paying for another's guys mistakes) . For the most part women are just as superficial ,but generally speaking less shallow, as men.
Women who don't even try to be the best version of themselves that they can be and then want/think they "deserve" a guy who has all these great intangibles, looks, and a body. Basically a bunch of nickles looking for dimes.
Women getting into casual sexual relationships and don't know how to navigate their way though it.(. Which is half of the post in this forum). Perusing this forum regularly has made me aware that a lot of women can't handle casual sex.0 -

Like the guys that say "I hate drama"... pshshshshshh0 -

My exhusband always used to say .. fluck the blonde ones, bring the brunettes home to mom.0 -
So if I've been told that I'm a freak in the bed, does that automatically mean I'm for sure crazy?

Here's my take....
Why do guys ignore the nice girls and go for the crazy b*tches???? (I really want to know this)
This can be answered using the "Nice guy vs bad boy" and the "Douches" conversation.
If you [the woman] are busy looking to her left and finding the "bad boy" then the guy on her right has little to no choice but to look to his right. Chances are he'll find the crazy b*tch while she finds the "Douche". Eventually, the cloud will be cleared from both sets of eyes and one would hope they find each other.

I would have to ask this in reply......are you overanalyzing? Maybe he did say what he meant. If you arent sure...then why dont you ask, word for word.
I'd like to tag another question to this thread if I may.....
Have you ever heard of the "List of 5"? I think this was first introduced during an episode of FRIENDS. Basically, this is a list of people you would be "allowed" to sleep with if given the opportunity regardless of your relationship status. Generally, the list would represent celebrities, athletes, etc. People you wouldnt normally come into contact with.
Do you have a "List of 5"? If so, and you're in a committed relationship, would you truly act on it? If so.....WHY?0 -
Well I never deny I'm a little nuts its just the level of nuts.....
NIce guys often = shy guys and alot of us girls (myself included) are not hardwired to deal with shy guys ... I'm loud opinionated and blunt. I've tried dating nice/shy guys in the past and I've walked all over them... However and nice guy with some steel in his spine is a rare and wonderful thing.
Crazy women/douchbags---- these are the same thing lol.... Men and women are drawn to confidence and this group of people tend to radiate confidence. You just have to recognize the downfall in these people.... For the record not all men/women are douches
If men and women would say what they mean my life would be much easier lol... Both sides play games men are just less willing to admit it0 -
I get told all the time how beautiful/hot/attractive/whatever I am but I'm hardly approached by men (not including online). I end up hearing the reason is because I'm so intimidating.
I get told that all the time too... which is why I really like online dating (so far). I have been asked out in public, and I've been asked for my number, approached and told I'm beautiful, stuff like that. But rarely does the man who approaches me in public ever actually ask me out. Or, if he does, he rarely follows through.
Edit: I've asked groups of guys about this from time to time (church, work, etc) and they all universally say I'm too intimidating. Which is hard for me to believe because I'm such a flighty girly-girl off duty.0 -

In many of my LTR, we've discussed 1 (not five). This is a precursor for active fantasy, which can be good if you're in a healthy relationship.
Now, if Kate Beckinsale will just ask me. I'd want to, but I doubt I'd act on it. Fantasy is good!0 -
<
has a simple theory that fits both sides:
As women, yes we are crazy. Some of us are crazier than others and some only have a little bit of crazy to us.
Men, are *kitten*. Some of them are bigger *kitten* than others and some only have a little bit of *kitten* in them.
*The goal is to find the one that is least crazy or isn't the biggest *kitten*.* :flowerforyou:
It's even a bonus to know when your craziness comes out or when you have a tendency to be a jerk.0 -

^^ I understand the theory, but I don't want a guy who is merely "not the biggest *kitten*." I want a man who treats me like a queen and lets me treat him like a king. I deserve that, and I'm not giving up the rest of my life for less than that.0

Pretty sure that means the guy wants more of that, lol0 -

I guess I really am jaded now. When I was married .. there is no way on this earth I would have cheated on him .. or even wanted to cheat on him. Even if it were some amazing athlete or whatever. Now .. I'm like .. meh .. why not.0 -

I COMPLETELY agree with this. If you are going for the guy that is not the biggest *kitten*- you are settling and selling yourself short.0 -
Bros before hoes!!!!
And I am a big supporter of the hot to craziness ratio. Trust me there's no amount of hotness that can make up for too much craziness. And I don't care how good the sex is (okay, maybe I care for a couple months).0 -
I couldn't even do the fantasy cheat thing. Maybe I'm boring, but when I'm in love with a man, the thought of someone else putting his hands on me makes me want to vomit.0
