Around what age do women start to become less desirable

[Disenchantedly Yours]

Luxary cars and Chanel bags never really impressed me. Sure, they are nice things but that's about it. Nice things. they do not equate into the kind of person you are. Just because you own a luxary car, does not mean you are "luxary".

[anne1707]

We are different. You misspelled "luxury" btw. It's obvious you aren't familiar with anything luxury or "luxary" as you spell it :laugh:

 

Hmmm. Looks like there is someone else who can't spell either

 

However, plenty of older women look good. I just relish in the fat that I look younger than most people.

 

Or is it a Freudian slip?

[mesmerized]

Nexus,

 

Something else, looking good is not all about attracting men. Looking good can be a status symbol by itself, akin to driving a luxury car or a big house or carrying a Chanel handbag. It can be a status symbol to show where you are in life because it generally takes resources to look that good.

 

Chaucer;

 

I have no need for friends.

 

Yeah right.

 

With no friends and that mentality, you're looking into a very miserable future.

Lots of men tend to want status for attracting women. So then that status has a goal. Status in itself is not a goal, unless it strokes your ego, like you said was important to you.

 

There's a whole sports car industry that thrives on the insecurity of men. Do you really think those men give a f*ck about those cars? Most don't, unless they're enthusiasts and those are relatively rare. They buy status by buying those cars, but most do it with another goal in mind. That goal being women.

 

Power, however, can be a goal for men.

 

So that's why I don't understand why you are so focused on status itself, because I don't see that as a goal, but a means to something. Yet your goal is not men. So I guess that leaves it at ego then?

 

I'm not judging you, don't get me wrong. I actually find it kind of refreshing that someone is remarkably honest about it. I think other people see you as being quite brutal. I think you're being brutally honest. You're not hurting anyone with it, unless you're being rude to other people, which you've said you often are, but apart from that I'd say just be yourself. If it makes you happy and it doesn't hurt anyone else, then that's great.

I was okay with this poster until that statement towards you

I miss spell a lot of things. Inbetween my typing and the fact that I just can't spell. And I've never been ashamed of it.

 

By the way, I have BMW. I just don't think the fact that I have one means I'm a better person then someone who doesn't. It certainly doesn't mean I'm more "luxurious" then anyone else. All it means is that I drive a car that happens to be BMW. Nothing more and nothing less.

If I was a better person I wouldn't have gotten some amount of pleasure out of this post.

J200 --- I think your type of honesty speaks volumes of how indifferent you are to what others perceive (on here anyway). I personally like that. But, I also drool over most kinds of (seemingly) honesty.

 

Question --- what else do value about yourself? What do you value more than looking youthful / beautiful? Are you okay with being vain? I don't expect answers; I Just hope you see more to yourself...

 

Also - feeding off of the perceived envy of others just does not seem at all healthy. Not to mention these women may not even be envious (though if they are, they in some ways deserve to feel it...)

 

I just feel like cautioning against relishing in other people's negativity. Envy is a negative emotion. Sometimes life has a way of putting us in the shoes of those we've maliciously afflicted/taken joy out of their sufferings... perhaps not directly, but we're charged to learn in some way or another (even if we never do in fact learn it), at some point...

 

Life is also not about status, appearance and flashy symbols and those kinds of things... none of those things will help one when tragedy hits them (and their loved ones, should they not be completely heartless and actually have some). Money can be used to seek out better "care" etc, but even the best care has its limitations.

Don't tell me you have an X5.

I'm like a man; I like power.

 

You can demand better treatment; people tend to be "Afraid" of you and intimidated.

 

I don't like the whole "rule by fear" thing. Treat others how you want to be treated yourself.

[anne1707]

Unattractive people get ignored.

 

Maybe us other LS posters should take note of this and put unattractive posters on ignore

[OnyxSnowfall]

Men are nothing to me; I don't even give them a thought. They are nothing to me. Even if there were no men I would rather die than be unattractive or obese.

I think you need to experience love.

BMW is only good if it's a 7-series. Everyone in California drives a 3-series; it's an entry level model for people that just got out of school and in their first job after college.

 

Oh we're starting like that are we?

It irritates me that people think the only reason why women look good is for men. Men are nothing to me; I don't even give them a thought. They are nothing to me. Even if there were no men I would rather die than be unattractive or obese.

 

I don't think that, I was just trying to understand you. You did a good enough job of explaining it, so I don't think you do it for men.

Well if she can be happy that way until the day she dies, then that's actually a way to live. HOWEVER, I wonder what happens if she ever changes her mind about all this, because if that happens at a point when it's too late, then she'd feel like she missed out.

[FitChick]

One thing I cannot stand is political correctness ("Everybody is beautiful") so I find J200's honesty quite refreshing and entertaining. She should become a high priced call girl if she has the looks. She'd get lots of money, meet rich, powerful and famous men and wouldn't get emotionally involved with any of them. She could use them for business networking.

[anne1707]

BMW and Benz are a dime a dozen here. Have you ever been to L.A? Cruise around Sunset blvd and you will see Lamborghini's and Ferrari's. I have seen Bentley's too.

 

 

Don't you know that plurals should not have apostrophes? You would think someone who is so fabulous would know their grammar.

[Woggle]

If that is what you like more power to you but there is more to life than materialism. Most great things were created from nothing on a shoe string budget.

Oh nonsense. BMWs are well made cars all around. They've won numerous awards for many of their models that are not just in the 7-series. Their brand is "luxury" all around. You're full of bravedo J200. A little too much that it comes off as an act. I'm not here to have a pissing contest with you. Someone's owned objects don't make them better people. If they did, OJ would never have committed murder and Brittney Spears never would have shaved her head and gone crazy. Good people drive fancy cars and so do bad people. It's just that simple.

 

Where I live there is a lot of farming money. In horses and agriculture. I know several guys that are millioniares but drive around in beat-up old pick-up trucks. Those guys kick serious cool butt.

 

Nexus, I don't have an X5.

I know a lot of people around here who own a lot of real estate or businesses. They are very wealthy and look and act like blue collar people.

"Everybody is beautiful" might be a little too rainbows and unicorns BUT J200 is on the complete opposite end of that. She isn't any more honest then the other mentality. Both are extremes that go over reality.

 

She is entertaining though! I just don't consider her very honest.

I just thought it was funny you brought that up, because I was thinking about getting an X5, but not because it is either expensive or cheap, but because I simply like it for several reasons.

 

The discussion about cars is a bit petty though. While I do like some cars, they're aluminium boxes to me that bring people from point A to B.

[Disenchantedly Yours]

Just because something is well made does not make it a STATUS SYMBOL. If we are talking about "impressing people" do you think people are REALLY impressed by a 3-series? Be realistic. It's the norm to drive on where I live; it doesn't IMPRESS anyone.

 

I love Britney actually. I am her biggest fan. She used to drive a SL65 AMG btw. Benz. I LOVE Britney; I like her music (I like dance and pop, like Britney and Kylie Minogue).

 

What? No love for OJ?

 

I could care less what Britney drove. Because unlike you, I know it doesn't make someone a better person. And I am currently thanking God that he gave me that perspective.

 

Like I said, I'm not going to have a pissing contest with you. BMW do hold a luxury brandname across the board. But the fact that someone has one doesn't make them a better person.

[Woggle]

What about all these rich and famous who get hooked on drugs sometimes to the point of killing themselves?

[Disenchantedly Yours]

I am the MOST honest of anyone in this topic. I tell it like it is. Everyone else is full of nonsense. How am I not honest? I am the MOST honest; I don't make excuses for anything but am saying EXACTLY how it is, no matter how unpleasant it is. People just can't deal with reality.

 

The world is not a nice place; better looking people get better treatment. Not everyone is created equal. Someone has to be ugly and someone has to work at McDonalds. That's Life.

 

No this has nothing to do with other people and what they can or can't deal with and you being such an epitome of superiority. This is all about you and the fact that you hide behind an extreme dichotomy based on how *you* want to see the world. It's the same with people that believe in unicorns and rainbows and that everyone is beautiful. It's another extreme dichotomy about how they want to see the world. You're just on that opposite end of the spectrum. The real world is a mix of both. Most of us fall somewhere in the middle with a more balanced view point. You're all about a little pop culture line "brutal honesty". Which is always more about the "brutal" part then the honest part. Always. And you're flying on the coat tells of that "brutalness" trying to claim it's "real". And it's not. It's all bravedo.

 

Oh but all people are created equal. Most certainly. They just aren't treated equally depending on their looks or intelligence or attitude, dare I say.

I'll agree with that you're honest, but that doesn't mean everyone else is full of nonsense. People tend to draw their opinions from their own experiences.
