And that's most likely the whole point. Who's gonna find himself drowning in grief with no outlet most of the time? Those who are already weak and hence take crap from everyone. Therefore, it's a valuable mechanism for natural selection, helping weed out the weak.

Congrats, you passed my most important question in my "Would I hook up with her?" test.

lidsmichelle, since hygiene is that too important for you, I am curious to ask you: Do you use the bidet? (or at least do you wash the ....private parts after toilet use?)

There's not bidets in the US as far as I know, but I do like to use wet wipes, yes, after either. I don't expect other people to though, though I would admit that I'd like other people to use wet wipes after pooping.

I'm not a teenager lol. I'm 23. I'm referring to women in their early to mid 20s.

@Outrider: all... humans... are primarily emotional. And tbh men are some of the most illogical people I meet, but they insist they are super logical and uninfluenced by their emotions (a sure sign that they're incredibly illogical, because the majority of logical people would be aware that human beings are a primarily emotional creature). How many men are irrationally attached to, to the point of intense anger when they lose, sports teams? How many men start yelling any time something goes wrong?

The difference is men are emotionally stunted so don't actually pick up on their own emotions, which makes things worse. And they claim, since they are too unaware of their emotions to realize they're being effected by them, that they are logical and unaffected by emotion.

Constipating your emotions doesn't make you more logical, it just makes you weak.

The only bidets in the United States are in very elegant hotels built over about 70 years ago.

^ That's really a big step back for you in hygiene.

Last night I my friends and I were talking about this topic of masculinity and relationships. It does seem there a correlation between education background and relationships compared to masculinity. This lady who is 34 spoke to me how disappointed she is because she is only 34 and not even have a relationship nor marriage. She is so beautiful minded person, her appearances is not bad at all. More than average I say. She is affected by guys with masculinity in her 20's who kept asking her out and for sex.

Now this is clear. Depends on women's minds, if she want to have a relationship and sex only with masculine guys in their 20's. There definitely going on. She said it so clearly, by seeing her friends going through the dramas while she still have no relationship experiences. I can see two type of women here: affectionate who accepts masculine guys and secondly 'conservative'. But again there no right or wrong about this. Education around relationships and sex should be clear and considered from teenagers. I am not going into new topic here, about sex education that is not performing very well here in Australia.

I am trying to say, like what kind of women attracts to. This correlates to what relationships they get, at the same time getting hurt. I seen it all. Everyone I know who done friends with benefits especially with a masculine guy who always ended up hurt. They get emotionally attached while the guy just wanted for sex. Other thing is a rebound relationship as well.

Speaking of height gap, I was a bit amused today to come across a couple making out on the bus.

He was slightly below average height and only a little overweight; she exceeded him in every linear dimension but foot and possibly hand length, though the latter was at any rate very close. She was about as tall as me or perhaps very slightly taller, and, given her proportions, could easily outweigh me by a comfortable margin; however, her body did by no means look as dilapidated and repulsive as mine. Her fat was well distributed throughout her body and firmly held in place by decent muscles, with no overhanging parts, and did not conceal her female figure. I estimated her weight as greater than mine because her body was all the way up to her shoulders about as thick as mine is at the level of my shameful, massively bulging belly, which my underdeveloped muscles can't keep from overhanging. As you can imagine, a big part of this thickness in the upper reaches of her torso came from her breasts, probably delicious to a lover being tightly embraced by her.

I'd seen plenty of clearly-overweight-but-still-beautiful-and-healthy-looking women before, with their fat well spread, not forming unsightly lumps (no, I don't count big, bulging but firm buttocks, hips or breasts as "unsightly"), but this was an extreme example. There's no question even fat has standards.

Bet they weren't amused, though. I hope you cleaned up after. :D

I don't know what you're getting at, but I don't usually do on the bus anything that requires cleaning after. And I'm pretty sure they were too busy making out to pay much attention to any other particular passenger, let alone specifically me.

I was being smutty. I didn't mean to lower the tone.

The overweight couple making out in a public place is new to me. I never heard nor seen anyone like that before. But that is good but they are comfortable with themselves. I am not saying this is an opposite of masculine good looking types make out in a same way, but it normally they are not acting themselves.
