About men

[youdunsay]

Dear men,

 

Is it true that you will not wait for the woman to become pretty enough to be interested in her? Is it true that you will not wait for the woman to be financially independent, has everything going in her life to want her?

 

I don't understand men,

Clueless

Since we start to become interested at about twelve years of age, yes its true. The availability of sex trumps the local definition of pretty and traditionally the male provides support to the female willing to satisfy that sexual need. That sex in easier to get without promises of support backrd by her family and society in general has weakened the tradition

Well that`s all us blokes lumped in together there.

 

No it is not true for me.

What exactly are you asking? I have no idea what you are even saying.

What's not to understand???

 

If you can't fit the square peg into the round hole, do you use a bigger hammer---or do you look for the square hole? It sounds to me like you're looking for a bigger hammer.

Yeah, some guys are in it for that pleasure/endorphin hit. The rest of us are in it for love, and to us sex is just an asterisk.

Why would I sot around waiting for a 24 year old girl to ' become ' pretty. She's not changing very much more than how she already looks, so I don't quite understand the first question.

 

Why would I wait for a woman to be financially independent when money isn't even an alluding or endearing factor to me?

 

 

Why would a man sit around and wait for a woman like that? Hell, why would a woman sit around and wait for a man like that?

Perhaps but in this specific case of the OP she is asking if "love" means she meets the local standard of prettiest and is able to bring money to the house on her own.

 

Now some societies do work on the dowry system but in any case it would be the woman's family most likely providing it. But it does explain why it has been said the Prophet Muhammad's example was for the multiple wives to be widows, beyond the pretty and virginal years and orphans who had no father to provide the dowry. Since in most cases unless she was a child star or something like a pro level figure skater the peak "pretty" years are spent in school and training and the peak earning comes after she has turned the corner on pretty.

 

Now with age and economic power she might afford more bling and change the wardrobe from the young punk stylings to the general society's pretty but it is camouflage for the human body which has already began its downward slope.
