    I think men want a woman who's her own person. A woman whose life is complete without having a man by her side. I think it's such a waste of hope and happiness when a woman feels unfulfilled because she doesn't have a man in her life (crappy Hollywood movies have a LOT to answer for :mad:)
    There, there, there's nothing wrong with being a spinster.

    Well I'm surely not representative of anything, but I have to say first of all I really don't want a mommy-like woman. However you'll have to infer what I want from what I don't want, cause I know what I hate better than what I do like ;). I don't want a control-freak, i.e. someone obnoxious who needs to bend you to her will, I don't want a submissive woman who'd let me push her around and be my sort of house slave, I don't want a drama queen, or a screamer (the kind who pierces your eardrums when she's frustrated over something), I don't want a follower, i.e. a girl who'll gladly stay in her man's shadow.

    I'd rather want someone who's more like my equal, who's first my best friend, who can express her feelings spontaneously (and that's actually an uncommon thing, at least in my experience), someone who can keep it up in a discussion and talk about more than mundane stuff, someone who has views on sex compatible with mine (i.e. someone who thinks fornication is just about genitals going in and out of each other is a no-no), a bisexual woman is preferable (any straight guy who disagrees must be out of his mind hehe), someone who has compatible views with me (i.e. I couldn't be with someone who wouldn't shut up about Jesus of Nazareth or someone who only thinks of earning money and spending money) and, generally someone who's interesting to spend time with and that I have feelings for, I couldn't be or stay with someone with no wit, no mind of her own, no curiosity, no real sense of humour or no goals really.


    I hope that that answers to your question :).

    I always thought my French was good enough for a foreigner, but from the quality of your English in that post I want to cry :(

    I suspect that was meant as a joke and The_Minister forgot to add a ;), :P, :) or :D to the end of his post. Of course I have been known to be wrong. It was in 1981 iirc.

    There there, lol. You can't really compare because for one thing English is grammatically awfully simple, we're pushed into being good at it as a necessity, and then thanks to the prevalence of the American culture and, to a more general extent, the Anglo-Saxon culture in France, it's much easier to fully immerse yourself into that. You always hear songs in English on the radio, and lots of shows on TV (mostly since the days of satellite television) aren't translated, and all the interesting stuff on the Internet is in English, so it makes it all easier to learn English, on top of providing a large incentive. When you think about it, it makes you wonder how come anyone else in France sucks at English. I'll blame it on English being a Germanic language while French is a Latin language, which explains why the Spanish and Italian also have a fairly bad English, while the Germans excel at it.

    If it can make you feel better, my Spanish sucks! ;)

    It was meant as a joke, I thought the use of a retro term like spinster indicated that.
    Sorry.

    yep that can happen sometimes you need someone to be wrong so that you can point it out to them and in the process of explaining it to them clarify your own decision and logic for it.

    the order comes from getting the man to tow the line and the direction is clearly not his cos he keeps going in circles.

    like telling a guy his robe is really yours and wearing it every morning.

    and that all matching sox in the house are your bedsox and his particularily expensive lambswool pairs you wear to make your snug gone to sock heaven.......

    men dont like that.

    Nah I prefer funky stripey fluffy socks for my toasty warm toes when relaxing.
    And if he wants his socks matched up he can do them himself.

    All the best women are mean. A man of your calibre should know that.

    A man who owns a 'robe' is a wuss anyway.

    Statements like that make me wonder about your home life. It must be odd. Ive never been to snug gone to sock heaven. Is it nice there?
    men dont like that
    I daresay aborigine men, jamaicans or basically any man in a warm climate couldnt give a rats ass about lambswool socks. And thank you, I always wondered what kind of man bought expensive lambswool socks anyway. Never met one before.

    This myth has been about a while. After initial years of optimism and hope with her man, a woman usually discovers the only order a man takes note of is last orders, and his direction is questionable, given he cant even pee in a toilet without missing.

    Seperate colours does not mean pink and blue, but can be black and grey or red and navy.

    I bet you even use your mans razor and probably dont replace the top on his cleanser after using it either and think nothing of it.

    A real man needs his comfort and is unashamed of looking and feeling good.

    You seem the type of woman who never puts the toilet seat back up after using it -yet complains. Thats like complaining you havent won the lotto when you havent bought a ticket.

    Hallelujah! Why do some women complain that they have to put it down when we have to put it up, and on top of that we're expected to put it back down?

    Well I make it simpler, instead of lifting it up, peeing everywhere, cleaning up, putting it down, I just pee everywhere and clean it up. "Cleans" the seat at the same time :D.

    There is the toilet seat and there is the LID.
    You are ment to close the lid before flushing.
