Hmm, on second thought, probably 1 per 5 million...

But rather entertainingly, the 3 minute awareness happens with the whole gamut of mankind: stocky guys, lean guys, dark guys, pale guys, bald guys, hairy guys, differently abled guys, 7-11 cashier guys, road repair crewmen, professors, engineers, garbage truck men, students, CEOs... It's the prelim to 'feeling a spark' (a spark, to me, involves more all-levels interplay). Basically, my DNA finds about, oh, around 30% of the world's population of men in my age range, sexually attractive - and I know it. That's hundreds of millions of men...

But I don't pay it any mind, because life is about much more than sexual compulsion - and I know few men qualify for my true specs. Probably only one per billion....

I think that's the way it tends to go with us as well. I think the only way someone's SOL on a surface read level is if you don't find them attractive or realize they're attractive but not your style. You can also meet people who would be attractive but something about their demeanor reads dried up, cynicle, and that happens even more often - has a similar effect to not being attracted, except that I have realized in my own experience that women can surprise me and reverse that out rather than that being a frozen or permanent judgement. Similarly finding them incredibly attractive but get a wall of nonverbal ice or razorblades that shuts things down as well - finding out that they're just shy and that it wasn't what they were really thinking can reverse that but, otherwise - it sticks about as long as I get feedback that I was right.

On another note though - are you sure its really one in a million or one in five million? While I realize that I'm an incredibly rare person to where its highly problematic for me I do realize that its not so much that the right person is ultra-rare, at worse I'd say she's maybe one in 400 or one in 500, but realistically the problem is seeing them/meeting them when both she and I are in the right frame of mind, the right place of life, single rather than taken and not in an on guard and walled off sort of way, etc. etc..

Boo, it's the Daily Mail. my grandma is a more reliable source than that.

also, iirc they support Wakefield. so there you go.

Theres been quite some talk about how wakefield results were mistreated by the uk medical examinations and how they mistreated parents that wanted to send their children for examination...Im not saying he was completely honest but he has been mistreated by the uk government/media to prevent any future similar investigations(in a look what happened to him do you seriously want to go down that road? sense) because his results werent benefitial for the them.

ooh cry me a river. that's what one gets for being a fraud. plus, he mistreated several of his subjects and who knows how many he indirectly put at risk by inciting the vaccine panic.

I shouldnt bother about this kind of thing but here we go:
Remember that guy that was hired by the CDC to check the validity of wakefield´s work he has asked for 11 million dollars to "do research" and bought himself a new car/house/...(http://www.cphpost.dk/news/internationa ... in-us.html). Hm I wonder why they arent doing anything about this?

I understand that he did a study in 10 children but again I wonder why parents werent allowed to provide their own evidence when they are usually asked to do this kind of things.

I could go on.

Im not claiming that wakefield didnt do anything wrong, Im saying that the british medical agency looked for its own interests and there wasnt need to put him through the hell he has been through...

Also there have been several cases of governments hiding/manipulating information from the masses for their own interests(anyone heard about wikileaks and how assange was considered to be one of the most dangerous criminals out there for releasing this information?) so its not that unlikely.

There are several ways I could reply to this.
However I refuse to get caught on pointless mocking(considering that its against the rules) and you refuse to read things with an open mind.

Feel free to open a thread about the issue once: you arent breaking any rules/you have an open mind about things.

oh I have heard those things before spongy, and read them on Jenny McCarthy fansites. an open mind should go hand in hand with critical thinking skills, otherwise it's just naivety.

How does your critical thinking explain the 11 millions of dollars that are missing. A country with FBI... was unable to realize that the guy had been scamming them for years?.

Again Jenny McCarthy/the like claim that he is free of any charges, all Im saying is that the situation wasnt handled properly by the british medical institutions and that it wasnt handled properly because they dont want any similar studies to be done and are using him as an example to what happens when you dare to question the safety of vaccines...

please do continue your train of thought. I'm particularly curious about the role of them reptilians in all of this! we all know that the Queen is one of them. are you saying they've reached the medical institutions as well?

The US is closer to the Middle-East than Eastern Europe, culturally.

in some ways, yes. in other ways, no.

developing countries can't really be compared to the US or Canada, and so few people have the option of being rich in those countries anyway. i am not sure if you are trying to say that the Middle East is more like North America or more like developing countries but it doesn't really seem similar to either, whether we are talking economically or culturally.

Quote:

Hyperlexian's post is an assumption, it's not real, the 'only option for a better life' is a poor excuse. Blame it all on the patriarchal society and men, how typical. Yet it's usually the brides' mothers who encourage such things.

an assumption of what? and how is it different from your assumptions?

i said nothing about patriarchy. you were implying it is only women who want to marry rich, but i disagree - dowries are an indication of the opposite. dowries are still very common in developing countries, and the dowry is routinely taken into consideration in marital decisions. i think that in very poor countries, money is an issue. i don't think a comparable force exists to that degree in North America.

Men here would also want to marry rich women , hyper, but the bride's parents usually wouldn't accept.

So no, it's not an equal two-way roads as you're imagining.

i was confused because you often think you can extrapolate how things are in lebanon and try to make assumptions about how things are over here. now that we have that straight, yhis is much easier.

anyway, i am not sure why you seem to place all of the decision-making power regarding marriage onto the shoulders of the women in your country. i think you know that it is not really accurate to do so. there is no place in the entire world where it rests solely in the hands of the bride's family.

1- not all developing countries are the same, at least culturally and lifestyle.

2- I never said it's only onto the shoulders of the woman , but usually she has the last say.....and her parents.
