I do not completely disagree with you so I will explain some of the sensitivity associated with black face from an American perspective without getting upset or calling you a racist (as others have) for having an unpopular opinion.

Absolutely - and she’ll get called a bitch for it. Women are constantly told they should lower their standards in dating, and made to feel bad for having any “dealbreakers” at all. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with guys having specific things they want in a mate, but this also shouldn’t be wrong for women…

I think there are people for whom looks truly don’t matter, though. They may be few and far between, but they exist.

I'm just speaking from personal anecdote— of the people I've dated the ones who were appealing because of who they were as a person were more fulfilling to be with and better partners overall. Those are also the partners that are still friends of mine to this day.

That makes sense. I’m 40 and part of the ‘latch key kid’ generation. There was a huge imbalance in the way children were raised when I was growing up. Because of the rise of feminism, people were definitely thinking about how to raise a girl to be strong and independent and suited for the modern world, whereas nobody…

because apparently I have to clarify : this is not a comprehensive list. of COURSE you’ll want funny and money and cute and sweet and charming and clever and all that good shit.

Eh, I’ve dated a lot of very different people in my life. Besides hygiene, the appearance thing only matters if the relationship is purely physical. I’ve been with men that I didn’t find physically attractive at first but ended up finding the person as a whole attractive after I got to know them and men that I found…

++ funny

what women want in a guy :

My Busia is 82. She accepts me and Cindymoo as a couple and is helping plan the wedding. She and my Dziadzia accepted her daughter as a lesbian since the 70s, and my step-grandfather, who died at the age of 88, accepted both of us as gay and accepted my aunt’s partner. It wasn’t a begrudging acceptance, either.

HAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA HAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH

HAHAH SHE IS FAT.

Fat joke. Funny. Insightful. Cool.

wow, how long did it take you to come up with that fat joke?

Not banned, just out-appointed. Heck, if Ginsberg leaves and is replaced by a man, people will go “Oh well”. Then if Sotomayor leaves and is replaced by a man, people will go “Oh well”. If Kagen then leaves and is replaced by a man, people will start getting angry.

Let’s be fair here. I studied archaeology in school and have worked on several digs, so I am coming from a place of some knowledge. And I’m afraid that I have to agree that having an all-female team *had* to have been a publicity stunt of some sort, and does in fact lead to some questions about the validity of their…

No, dingus, if the server had gotten tipped appropriately, he’d had never stepped outside and seen them get in their fuckwad car and drive, being douchebags not only to him but to other humans because they have no regard for anyone else.

Had he gotten tipped, they would have gotten in their car just fine sure. But…

That’s patently false. The server wouldn’t have seen them get into the car if they gave a good tip. However, if the server had gone on a smoke break right then and saw them driving off they would have called the cops just the same.

Are you seriously suggesting he would’ve knowingly let them drive while drunk if they’d tipped him generously? Yes, he only called the cops because they stiffed him, but he only saw them piling into a car drunk off their asses because he’d gone out to the parking lot to confront them. There’s nothing suggesting he…

GodDAMMIT! I COMPLETELY BLOCKED IT OUT THAT POOR PATRICK SWAYZE IS DEAD!
