" we can relate to the characters...they do the things we would never dare to do. We can break up with you on a post-it note. We can not return YOUR calls."

And what SOME of you women don''t realise is that there''s NOTHING about any of those four women that would make a guy look at them twice. They are high-maintenance gold diggers. I think that''s one reason some women like the series. It says YOU don''t have to make any effort, or be interesting, and guys will still come on to you. Even Bridget Jones has more qualities than any of these four. They talk a good game, but they are entirely conventional. The mystery to guys is WHY some women admire characters that aren''t even real women but gay men''s concept of real women. If you look at Candace Bushnell''s original articles, even SHE didn''t seem to like these women, who she basically thought would *** themselves for a Gucci handbag.

"But for the guys who still show chivalry (it''''s NOT dead) towards women...you''''ll find quality people out there. We still like manners."

You''ve just been praising a series for showing women can be chauvinistic and self-centered and followed up by saying men shouldn''t. One of the idiocies about "*** and the City" was always that it deplored certain behavior in men and promoted that self same behavior in women.

It''s an even trade. She tells you what she wants, and you tell her what You want. Has foreplay and intimacy
become a waste of time ladies? Of course not, but these guys must be so insecure that you will have to do your part as well.

That is basically how long your *** would be if you were a man. Now, that is the longest *** you will be ever allowed to have intercourse with. How does that feel? Posted by mecury69 at 05:56 PM : Jun 18, 2008

No problem. Size doesn''t matter.

Maybe the older guys need to take up the slack if the youngsters can''''t handle it.

Maybe they should. Younger guys are too immature.

Now, to make it fair...women....bend your ring finger and touch your palm. Extend your finger back out and then measure the distance between the end of the ring finger and the spot where it touched your palm. Posted by mecury69 at 05:56 PM : Jun 18, 2008

Okay, so does that mean I would bend my finger over at the knuckle or from the base and try to stretch it as far as I can?:)

It really seems that the very physically attractive women have serious psychological issues, generally speaking.

I''ve dated my share of beauty queens and then some but I regret wasting my time with them. Pretty freakin'' shallow for the most part, and ultra-high maintenance.

I pity the fool that gets stuck with them when their looks go. They just don''t seem to have the maturity to handle it and will make life miserable for those around them.

Guys......come on.

You let them out of the kitchen, then you decide to let them work.........now listen to them.

Get the dinner ready, then clean the bathroom, get my robe ready and then put the children to bed. Just do it......and with a smile please.

p.s. don''t forget my beer.

And the fun thing about S*ex and the City is that it lets women feel like they can treat men like men treat women. For every guy that''s ever told you he was going to call and didn''t. For every girl who''s been treated badly. It makes you able to play the "what if" game.

For you guys who don''t understand the fascination women have with that series...it''s that we can relate to the characters...they do the things we would never dare to do. We can break up with you on a post-it note. We can not return YOUR calls.

But for the guys who still show chivalry (it''s NOT dead) towards women...you''ll find quality people out there. We still like manners.

Oh, and I used to only date younger men...about 10 years younger than me because I thought they were the only ones who could still have ***...with all these Viagra ads, I thought that for sure every man over 40 must have "ED." I was scared to death to date anyone my own age (I was 39).

I''m now dating a 47-year-old guy who was apparently intimidated by his ex-girlfriend, thinking that he needed that stuff. It was HER. I''m very happy to say that there''s a lot to be said for older guys...they actually pay attention to what a woman wants. I have no complaints, and won''t trade this one in for anyone!!
