02/14 Love Smart Island, Part 2
Quote From: mrsmazyOK i wanted to comment on january's problem. She said she's trying to find a way to be attracted to men that aren't that attractive. Well january if you really want to learn. this is what I did. I was told to find one thing maybe two that you like about the person's looks. Once you do that you are able to start being attracted to them. I did this with my husband. I started by being attracted to his eyes and dimples. And sooner or later I found him to be really cute. The personality really is what matters. you know you've found love when you can be in love with someone before you find them attractive. I'm really glad that my mother gave me this advice. I hope it works for you As long as women think we are not entitled to have physical preferrences in a mate but men are,we will make all men feel they are entitled to "supermodels" no matter how plain because they are born with a penis!
Why is it that attractive girls are considered bad if they want an attractive male and actually talked out of what they want because they are being shallow. But attractive men and not so attractive men are "excused" for the same thing because that's what guys do?
My boyfriend and I watched this show and he is the one who said those 3 "Average Joe's" are single because they feel they do not have to settle for an "Average Jane" b Society tells them so. Had the roles been reversed and those 3 men had dates like Roseanne Barr, Brett Butler, and Conchita Farrel (two and a half men) those guys would have been even more shallow than the women and they would not be as willing to accept a woman who is at their level or less attractive because she has a great personality.
Yet we sit there and feel sorry for the men(who cannot find a date because they are too picky) and berate women who take care to look good and stay fit because we as woman are so needy of men, any man is good. So what if he is overweight,does not take care of his appearance or you are not attracted to him. MAKE YOURSELF FEEL ATTRCATION or lie to yourself that it does not matter to you.
Watched the Oprah show yesterday .When the phychologist said as women we are taught to accept any man because it is considered better to have a so-so man,than no man at all so women settle for anything with a penis or a man who can provide her with nice things because we are taught to I felt really bad. I watched Dr. Phil try to convince the women that they are bad for feeling they need attraction.
Are we as women not entitled to feel physical attraction to our mates or is that a luxury only men have?
I know men who are overweight,hairy,old,bad teeth ,bad personalities and they all expect to get hot women. But lord knows ignore the ugly ones as though they are invisible. Tons of single "Average Janes" can tell you the reality of this.
A couple of weeks ago my boyfriend set up a co-worker who complains constantly he cannot find a nice girl. This guy is about 40 lbs overweight, bad hair,glasses, not so great set of teeth. He was set up with a girl who is attractive though about 15lbs heavier than she should be. We thought we were doing him a favor as she was cuter than he deserved. Guess what! He had the nerve to be upset with the date and pulled my boyfriend aside in the middle of dinner because the girl was not attractive enough for him! He thought her cute, but needs to lose weight! This is typical however with most "Average Joe's"
Even the show "Average Joe" berrated the beautiful women for not looking into a man's heart and being shallow. Meanwhile all of the average Joe's were going gaga for her looks and figure and all claiming to be in love with her(Who is shallow??). The audiance feels sorry for the Joe's ignoring the fact they are as shallow as can be meanwhile wanting attractive women to look past their shortcomings. Would these aaverage Joe's be so hot and sweet to an
Average Jane" I think we all know the answer.
