Females, I just don't get them!
 

I just can't figure out why the majority of females are so preoccupied with the opposite sex, obsessed with thinness, aren't straight
forward, oh all that make-up, and are so emotional. Please fellow girls tell me why, I not criticizing I just curious! If you are the exception this does not apply to you.

I didn't think women were to be understood, just loved and cherished.

But I'm not a woman http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

To bite from someone smarter than me:

When I was born, I only knew two things about women:

Smell good.
Soft.

20 years later, I have this as the summation of my knowledge of women:

Soft.
Smell good.

I don't think males and females are supposed to understand each other, that's just part of the mystery. SH80, you claim that females are preoccupied with guys, thinness, and make-up. Yes, some of us are but a lot of that is society/media. Why are males so preoccupied with sports, their cars, and sex? Maybe it's the same reason, I don't know.

I think James has the right idea! http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/wink.gif

The context of SH80's question implies she is female . . . so maybe the question has a different thrust.

I am not going to comment on the Sports and
Car thing because that is usually not that much of a preoccupier unless the guy is obsessive compulsive which has nothing to do with the hobby . . . just his mental state.

That can also be regional.

But as far as the sex thing . . . guys are not taught "Easy intimacy" I see girls run fingers through each others hair, touch one another, and be physically close as friends . . . we guys are taught not to do that.

Most of our feelings of intimacy are brought out during sex or sex play, touching . . . so when you reject us on that level, to us emotionally its like you have rejected us on that intimate level . . . which puts us really off balance.

Sorry probably more of a serious response than you needed to just a comment.

good catch James, I think some of us read that wrong, Anyway though I don't think we gals are hard to figure out .I think it all depends on the person , we all react to different things, and different situations. I think if everyone is just upfront about things , then maybe we wouldn't have soo much confusion, but then that might take the fun out of things.

Yep, I am one! That is what confuses me the most. Could there be something wrong with me?
Oh yeah, I'm also a straight female, but I don't chase after guys though.
