:indifferent:
I think it's tacky. I'd rather just be called pretty.
Of course, I'm not a mom. I'm a stepmother but smilf isn't any better. :noway:0 -

Not sure who you have me mixed up with. I never said I was ignoring you. I don't recell ever posting in one of your threads before. They're all so very stupid. I just decided to finally comment in one, just for lulz.
In the quote above, the disgruntled poster said...I don't recell ever posting in one of your threads before.They're all so very stupid.
But wait... it gets better.
Interestingly enough, "he" only has three (3) "friends." And each of those three (3) friends are friends with each other. That by itself is strikingly interesting, but hold on...
All of those three (3) "friends" have commented on my threads in the past...
That's odd.
Here's where it gets fun...
All of "his" three (3) friends use the exact same grammatical context in "their" posts..
All of "his" three (3) friends use fake, pirated pictures as their avatars...
All of "his" three (3) friends misspell the same words, the same way...
Hmm.. that's devastatingly coincidental. Weird.
Would this be a true cross-examination, we would have subpoenaed the IP and ISP addresses for all three (3) friends... and I'm guessing they would all be... the same.
Which hurts worse creepy, fake account guy? The fact that you just got owned? Or the fact that you're going to now have to reevaluate your entire online life?
Next.
For someone who conjures up the art of cross-examination, I expect more attention to detail.
Stating "I've never posted in a thread of yours" is significantly different than stating "I've never read your posts."
The conspiracy theory stuff isn't going to play out. You are welcome to try, though. I do know zaph0d pretty well, have known him for awhile. We are not the same person. And I only know one of his other friends - who I only recently became friends with. I really try not to post misspellings.
I suppose I could be making all that up, but it's the truth.
Also, I have always had pictures of me in my profile. Always. Since I joined. I don't believe in anonymity on the Internet. Sometimes I choose a "fake" image as my main pic, which shows next to my posts. But my profile is open (always has been), and the pics of me are real. I'm not as handsome as you are.
As for the phrase "MILF" I don't think it's necessarily any more or less offensive than saying "Hey, that's someone I'd like to f&ck!" It's way overused, and kind of crude. But if I was describing a woman to you and I said she was "hot, in a MILF-y kind of way" you probably know exactly what I was talking about.
So maybe it's just laziness that we (meaning mostly men) aren't more creative. I could be talking to you about a woman and simply state "she is hot." If we discussed it further, I might say she was in her 40s, had kids, was obviously a mom, and also took care of herself.
But saying she was hot in a MILF-y way keeps more time open for high-fiving.0 -
wearing the badge and the t-shirt proudly ..at 50 years young I'll take any form of compliment :drinker:

I don't really think it's offensive, per se..
I DO think it's unoriginal and trite, because really, f*cking someone isn't all the unique; most of the adult population does it, and it doesn't take a whole lot of special qualities except the right body parts.
I'd prefer a personalized compliment that's directed at me and specific to individual things, because it's much more mature, but.. That's just me. If someone decided to call me a "MILF" like they genuinely thought it was a compliment I'd enjoy, we wouldn't get much past introductions.0 -
I do find it mildly offensive in general, but if the right guy refers to me that way

This! It is ALWAYS who is giving the "compliment"0 -
all I can say is what does this have to do with my fitness pal, go on a porn site if you want to bring something up like this, this is all about losing weight and posts just for losing weight and helpful hints for people, get a life0

LOL!!! I got called a MILF at work. I thought it was funny enough to share with my husband, who got mad enough to want me to report it. I guess different people translate it differently........ I don't get my feathers ruffled very often, so i dont really put too much thought into it.
............................ I just noticed............ there seems to be some type of wicked cat fight going on in this post....LMFAO!!!!!0 -

Being that my bf is 15 years younger than me and I am a mom... I have been called a MILF and a cougar!! Do I care? Hell no... Call me what you want.... I got a stud in my bed either way!!! lol :-)0

You can insult me all you want, try to bring me down - it won't work because I know I'm better than you in every way even if you're thinner than me you'll never be beautiful.0

I was called a MILF this weekend...it was during a conversation where I had basically told someone to get their mind out of the gutter cause I was a mom...
to which he responded with a very cheeky grin...
oh Yeah you are a total MILF? That's on my bucket list....
I couldn't help but laugh and take the compliment....
it's lighthearted and cute...
I don't find it offensive at all.0 -
I find that it is misused far too often.0
-
I take it as "I am biologically attracted to you because you are fertile and I would like my children to have your good genetics."
I accept!!0 -
Must read back through the thread. I'm lost xD0

To me, "MILF" isan anti-feminist term based on the "madonna-*kitten*" complex coined by Sigmund Freud. Here's what Wikpedia says:
"In psychoanalytic literature, a Madonna–*kitten* complex is the inability to maintain sexual arousal within a committed, loving relationship.[1] First identified by Sigmund Freud, this psychological complex is said to develop in men who see women as either saintly Madonnas or debased prostitutes. Men with this complex desire a sexual partner who has been degraded (the *kitten*) while they cannot desire the respected partner (the Madonna).[2] Freud wrote: "Where such men love they have no desire and where they desire they cannot love."[3] Clinical psychologist Uwe Hartmann, writing in 2009, stated that the complex "is still highly prevalent in today's patients".[2]
The view of women as either Madonnas or *kitten* limits women's sexual expression, offering two mutually exclusive ways to construct a sexual identity.[4] The duality implies that women must assume subservient roles, either as madonnas to be protected or as *kitten* to be punished by men.[5]"
This theory has always made sense to me, and I have experienced it many times. I dislike the term "MILF" for this reason.0 -

MILF, cookies and natural photos. Just what the Dr. ordered!0

Don't forget DILFS and GILFS, or did the doctor not order those?0 -
I don't want random people telling me they want to *kitten* me. And I don't want random people telling me I'm a mom, but they want to *kitten* me ANYWAY. Yes, I'm a wife and mother. But first I'm a woman and should be treated as such.
It's akin for "You're pretty hot...... ......for a mom" because what? Once we become mothers we stop being attractive, and all of a sudden it's socially acceptable to tell moms this? yeash.
I don't care if people go around using the words... just not to me if you don't know me.
As for cougar, people don't seem to get the actual concept of it, and I see so many people misuse it!
It's a woman over 40 going after men under 25. She's not a cougar if she's dating 26-30 ye old dudes or older. It's specifically men in their early 20s.0 -

I would pity them for having such a limited vocabulary. If you think a lady is attractive, prove it by flexing your cognitive functions a little more.0

I don't think people should take it offensively....It may be a bit blunt and childish, but at least it proves that you've still got it ;l0
