Fuckin' beta male.

Outcome independence. Be able to jump up and move on to the next girl. That's what attracts women. Not this "boo hoo she left me" bullshit.

Ya, women like being semi-disposable ephemeral fuck holes.

Besides, Humphrey Bogart was always known as mamby-pamby, light-in-the-loafers, limp-wristed, poetic ponce - not a rough and tumble, wise talking, leading man when cinema still had silver stars.

Why stop there Chipit? Kill all the emotions everywhere! Stomp on all the plush women and children, especially the children. Men should stomp on anything and everything they care about!

Give me a break. Take away emotions and everything in the world turns into CyberTruck, ugly as fuck and not bulletproof after all anyway. So much for rugged.

Doesn't mean you have to be a soft cuck or a hard asstroll either. But you do you boo hoo booer.

Do your balls get hot oil burns when your sack is pinched in the gears as you fuck your sex doll in the tailpipe? Why bother? Lust is for babies. Grow up and be a real robot. Duplicate don't procreate.

You funny lurker!

"An absurd absolute is a restatement of the other person's reasonable position as an absurd absolute. For example, if your point is there is high crime in Detroit, the absurd absolute would be your debate opponent saying something such as "So, you're saying every person in Detroit is a criminal." When your debate opponent recasts your opinion to include an "absolute" word, such as every, always, never, all, completely, universally, and the like, you are seeing cognitive dissonance.

Some people call what I just described a strawman argument. But a strawman argument refers to any sort of inaccurate recasting of your opponent's argument. That is the generic case. I'm referring to a specific strawman argument that uses an absurd absolute. When your debate opponent recasts your point as an absurd absolute, you won the debate. That's as far as you can go."

From: How to know you won a political debate on the internet.

Now that was actually interesting.

You took what I said, which was that a man shouldn't tie himself to a woman and ruin his life if she leaves him, and extended it to this bizarre "kill all the emotions everywhere" rant.

I find typically this happens when I've made a good point but the other person doesn't like it, so they take what I said, extend it into something indefensible, and then attack what they just made up about me. It happens pretty frequently.

Honestly, chicks dig men with options. Getting too attached to one woman kills men. They'll kill themselves if they don't have options. Remember that German pilot who flew a whole airplane full of passengers into a mountain because boohoo his girlfriend left him? That's what I'm talking about.

You started with, "Fuckin' beta male."

Not exactly friendly words. I don't know if you were attacking Bogart, Bogart's screenwriter character Dixon Steele (a violent ladies man suspected of murder), or Dixon Steele's fictional character who's to say the famous line, or me.

And concluded with, "Not this "boo hoo she left me" bullshit."

While it may be macho to not give a shit, and maybe some chicks dig it, a lot of girls like a guy they can relate to. In my opinion and experience, that' what attracts women. It's also given me more heartache than I could handle.

You did not make a good point. It was simply contrarian. All perspectives are valid to some degree, and some are even correct. In this case there is no correct view. Bookended with aggressiveness, intentional or otherwise.

Here's what women really dig: confidence, for the most part, within reason.

Social engineering has evolved our relationships of monogamy, with all its pros and cons, into casual flings, with all its pros and cons. I had more than average of the later and would have preferred the former.

Talk about taking it to the extremes... most people don't commit suicide with a broken heart (and chronic depression).

Yeah. Because any man who puts his self-worth in a woman is a beta. For sure.

Who was even talking about an actor? You know their whole thing is playing pretend? Like children? Seriously, that's their actual job.

Women like a man who is outcome-independent. This is also healthy for men. She likes to know you have options. For men, it is also good to have options, so you don't kill yourself and and airline full of people.

You wouldn't feel bored with casual sex unless you had had enough of it. Do you seriously not realize this? If you hadn't had it, you wouldn't feel this way. Sheeeit. It's like saying "oh, money isn't all that" in the middle of a sea of starving people. Sure, your perspective is valid - as long as you ignore the context.

"_ Who was even talking about an actor? _"

My quote was, if you'd bothered to look any of it up: "I was born when she kissed me. I died when she left me. I lived a few weeks while she loved me." ~ Dixon Steele, In a Lonely Place (1950)

You know what is an even crazier actual job than acting? Animation. It is acting, but through drawings or computers. That's what I've done nearly all my life.

I have had enough but was never "bored with casual sex". I just wanted more out of a relationship, like commitment and a future. That didn't happen for me. I'm fine without and more zen for it.

Again with the extremes. Who says "money isn't all that" in the context of a starving sea? No one would. Yet there are missionaries and activists who aren't driven by money who try to help people in starving seas.
