I haven't been posting very often and I haven't had any reason why. So here is a bunch of mixed up crap.

Today I was reading about a womans view on attraction and how we are attracted to the opposite sex. You know, men visually and women emotionally. Comments go on to state that the poor men out there have no control and that its not their fault. Sure, I understand that. But, what I don't really see is how all the comments about women state that "we" all feel the same and that we can see and attractive man and say "Yes, he's good looking" but our thoughts go no farther than that because we aren't wired that way. I beg to differ.

Comment Quote:

Men on the other hand are drawn to the womans body... in a way we arent to a mans body.
We are more "emotionally" turned on.

Because of this men I think are in the sucky position... I mean can you imagine walking around each day trying to not look at another woman.. yet everywhere they turn theres billboards with half naked women, magazine covers... girls on the street with hardly anything on, commercials, etc..etc... Its like impossible!

Ok, here's the thing. Men are truely exposed to images of the female body way more than we are to images of the male body. I suppose in a way we are bombarded more with images of the male form with a pot belly, drinking beer, sitting on the couch, watching them misbehave and act like morons and highfive eachother. What if things were different? What if on every magazine cover we saw an in shape handsom man who appears to have all his shit together AND we saw on TV a well dressed well mannered goodlooking guy married to the "average joe lady". I use this example because so many TV shows I see it seems to have a hot wife with a fat schmuck of a husband but the wife still loves him anyways. Why can't it be the other way around? Perhaps we as woman would be more visually stimulated if we were exposed to it as much as men are.

For example:



and...






We all know why Uncle Phil got that hottie don't we? If you need a hint it starts with "M" and its not Macho.

Why are there pics of chicks on a woman's mag? These pictures could easly tranfer over to a Maxim cover no prob. Also, in Maxim any article that involves woman is usually titled something like "How to trick your girlfriend into doing what you want" and "How to get your girl to fullfill even your sickest deepest fantasies". Why doesn't Cosmo have articles about how to get your boyfriend to do whatever you want? Why is it always about making him feel fantastic? Sigh, this is why I don't buy it. I want a magazine with a hot dewd on the cover felexing his muscles with no shirt on and then I want it to say "How to make him kneel on the floor, snivelling, begging for mercy and do whatever you want". Man that would rock. And then it would say "Hot pic's inside or hot men doing hot things topless, like chopping wood" I know that's a long title but I want detail. Then I would put it on the top of my toilet for all to see. He he he. It would never work...I know. They all never work it's just a bunch of bull but it still bugs me anyway. I think mostly I'm bothered because it's such an accepted excuse that men use. "I can't help myself, it's the way I was made" therefore making it totally ok to act like a horn dog because that's how he was made.

I know for a fact that I can be turned on visually. Here's a shamefull example:

I was watching Borne Identity with Matt Damon (not with Matt Damon physically or literally, this would happen only in my dreams) and that scene came on where she takes his shirt off and they have the perfect angle of his flexing bicep muscle. My boyfriend at the time tried to say something at this exact moment and I was so into Matt that I actually stuck my hand up in his face and shushed him until it was over. I got in trouble. If that's not visually stimulated I don't know what is. Once while home sick I was watching some movie they showed a scene with the leading man naked. Typically, they only show the bum. But! This time he was bending over getting into bed and they actually showed his member! I couldn't beleive it. I actually replayed it about 5 times to make sure because I was also high on demerol and thought I may be halucinating. Funny, I don't remember the movie title...just. that. one. scene.

If I see something I like I don't say in my head "Oh he's handsom". I say "ha cha cha I wonder what he looks like under that". I know, maybe it's bad and maybe I am different than some other woman out there. But, I really think that maybe if we had been exposed to it as much as men perhaps we would be just as lustful. I know though that if it were true my excuse wouldn't be "It's not my fault I was born like this!". I think it would be "I'm a horrible horney peice of crap who can't control myself. Please help."

I'm not saying its right I'm just saying this is how I am.

I would post a comment on the persons blog but I seem to cause problems when I comment and people get angry. And I think its fun to make people angry so why not do it on my blog instead?

*I just did a spell check and it actually said no misspellings found. This is an amazing day and now I know for sure that this post was meant to happen. It's fate.

You are not alone Ang. In fight club, whenever Brad Pitt had his shirt off, I couldn't breath for the site of his hips. Man, that was hot.

Maybe no spelling mistakes, but there is a problem near the beginning of your post.

Because of this men I think are in the sucky position...

Was this sentence actually in your book? If so, I wouldn't put much stock into what you're reading.

Men need the perception of power. It is psychologically important that a man appears to be in charge. Especially, in the presence of other men. In many cases, women are the ones with actual power. I don't know how often girls bug eachother about how whipped they are but it the guy realm it happens all the time whether its true or not.

In conclusion, you should have been born a man.

Toad said...

ITS NOT IN A BOOK. I WOULD NEVER READ A BOOK ALL ABOUT IT. IT WAS A COMMENT ON SOMEONE'S BLOG.

AND RACH...THAT HIP MUSCLE IS MY FAVORITE. HOLY SMOKES!

John said...

About ten lines up from the bottom of your post, spelling error. handsom? Where did you come from Ang. Is this my baby girl I used to give horsey rides to?

Toad said...

OH CRAP. WHILE WRITTING THIS I SAID....MAN I HOPE MY DAD DOESN'T READ THIS ONE. AND THEN I SAID...HE DOESN'T READ ALL MY BLOGS BECAUSE HE DOESN'T COMMENT. AND THERE YOU GO...COMMENTING.

I DID THE SPELL CHECK AND IT DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING. THE SPELL CHECK IS KING AND THAT'S IT.

SORRY DAD.

Becky said...

One question:
How the frick did "handsom" pass the spellcheck? LOL. Oh man. LOstinkinL.

Becky said...

Wait.

One more question:

How did horney (horny), peice (piece), beleive (believe) (i before e Ang), halucinating (hallucinating), shamefull (shameful), easly (easily), tranfer (transfer), fullfill (fulfill), and my personal favorite felexing (flexing) make it past your spell checker???

Ha ha ha ha ha ha... Oh man. My stomach hurts.

Toad said...

I JUST DID ANOTHER SPELL CHECK AND IT SAID THE SAME THING. MY SPELL CHECK IS BUSTED!!!!!

This is hillarious. I, for one, prefer the scene in Sahara where Matthew McConnaughey (theres a spelling error for ya) hoists himself out of the water onto that boat. Holy crap. Peter laughs at me, but feels this way about Jennifer Garner. We like Alias a lot. He watches her kick some ass, and I watch Vaughn bring her a glass of wine in the tub and it works great for everyone.
I did read this entire post thinking, wow, her dad's gonna read this. LOL

Sue said...

I think I enjoyed the comments on this one more than the post. Us old folks can't get past picturing in your pink room playing barbies. You are brave or something. Way to stay calm John, and focus on the spelling mistakes.

Trav said...

i guess i kinda fall into the category of the fat shmuck with the hot wife... but oh well... going to the gym will change that... and pretty soon i'll be carrying a gun... so that will change the whole power thing too... yeah... pretty soon i'm gonna be the english GSP... only with a gun... oh yeah... gun

Trav said...

oh yeah... just the fat shmuck part is gonna change... i'm still gonna have my hot wife... just for clarification

Holy Crap. On Postsecret this week is a picture of Brad in Fight Club. I assume the same one mentioned here? (never seen it). What are the odds? There you go Ang, you can go look at him all you like. Well, until Monday anyway...

I
would like some one help me understand why the magazenes and advertizers use near naked women to sell us women products. For example the Victoria Secrets people. I had to cancel the catologue because I was way too embarased to do any shopping through it. I just wanted some hand lotion for pity sakes.So they use semi naked women to sell products to both women and men.
They can't think we are so stupid to think that we are going to look like that if we buy their stuff. They can't possibly think that the men are so stupid to think that if they use axe shower stuff that those women will chase them around.
The men don't have to look great, they just have to use the product and batta bing batta boom the women love you. The women just have to use the product and batta bing batta boom they look great.

Toad said...

I don't understand either.

I would also like to say that I love that my mom wrote batta bing batta boom. That was awesome. lol.

I don't get that axe stuff. I have smelt them all in the store and they stink BAD.

Unknown said...

Haha, I think it's funny that your dad read this. Luckily, my dad is computer illiterate, and therefore would never read my blog. But my mom could show him, soooo...

Your spell check is broken.

I also agree about Brad Pitt in Fight Club. Oh man, that is killer.
