    ladder theory is well established here on boards. there's been plenty of posts on it in the past.

    do a search on threads here if you're interested.

  • Closed Accounts Posts: 989 ✭✭✭MrNuked

    Since all men have this one ladder and all women go on this ladder, where does someone like a sister go?

    Interestingly enough I think I fall into the woman's category of things. Might be helpful in explaining to my straight friend why I don't want to **** every guy I meet even if he is good looking or not.

    She holds the brothers ladder looks up the skirts on it and passes on advice perhaps ;)

    what do mean a personal issue. the personal issues forum is a discussion about human relationships and if you ask me Ladder theory is a good theory on human relationships


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 11,446 ✭✭✭✭amp


    This is where high brow stuff gets dumped. Do you think Humanities is not the right place to discuss human relationships?

    "...women who are this way (and it is almost all of you) should be honest and admit that they are basically whores"

    Too high brow for me. :eek:

    Funny i didnt react this way at all..

    I thought it was incredibly interesting, saves us a lot of time and
    explains the unexplainable..

    Like why when you were younger the nicest , most respectable girls
    would hang around with the biggest scumbags going..

    If you're too nice to them you're on the friend ladder,
    If you a little bit dangerous/mysterious your on the other one..

    I especially liked the pie chart system..
    10 % for all the things girls say they care about but dont
    - Completely true..

    Explains why women of all ages were getting dolled up/excited when
    Bill Clinton came to town recently.. he's a dirty old man..
    He's also a powerful dirty old man, and this attracts women..

    You'd be suprised at how often seemingly trivial things can be talked about in a deeply intellectual way. I once happily wrote a very deep philosophical essay for a teacher who thought she was punishing be by choosing the topic of "The inside of a ping pong ball".

    Besides, who am I to argue with the mods of PI :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,335 ✭✭✭Cake Fiend


    I had a discussion about this with an old girlfriend once. She was adamant that her male friends weren't attracted to her (they 'saw past' the male-female thing, they knew she had a boyfriend, whatever). She was also surprised to learn that I had no attractive female friends that I hadn't scored once upon a time, or at least tried it on with.

    Women are silly creatures.

    [Although, anyone notice that your unattractive female friends become less unattractive the better you get to know them? E.g. you're trying to set male friends up with them, being surprised to hear that they aren't found attractive, etc?]


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,330 ✭✭✭✭Amz


    Very accurate really.

    Do guys actually want to know what ladder they're on and how high up they are on it?

    Or if you were on one ladder and subsequently moved to another would you want to know about it afterwards? Would you just not care?


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    there's more than one ladder? maybe i should have read it instead of just opening the link and alt+f4'ing.

    hey amz, want to climb my ladder? I've replaced random rungs with breadsticks instead of wood.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 14,330 ✭✭✭✭Amz


    Mmm... Bread ...

    "Is that a ladder in your tights or just a stairway to heaven?"


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 4,007 ✭✭✭pretty-in-pink


    its funny cause its true. imagine men using women, and women using men! :)

    so does every guy who talks to you put you on his ladder? and how do you know where you stand?does stuff like being a virgin, or unavailable put you higher up? the mind boggles. what makes a women universaly hot? we all know there are differnt types blah blah blah....but what bout the famous ladies, or just plain popular ladies that loads of guys fancy............but they generaly have different types?is the different types thing a line to get into our pants? i know i have a type.............but its hard to define.

    men are hard! :confused:

    men are hard!

    But not always when you want them to be ...

    *sigh*


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,326 ✭✭✭pretty*monster


    Not all girls have a friends ladder.
    We just feel bad about dropping the guys we don't want to sleep with.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,967 ✭✭✭✭Zulu


    Theres just one ladder for men. You couldn't get any easier.

    As for the hardness, it's directly proportional to height on the ladder. ;)


    (sorry - I just realised that could be taken as a personal insult - none intended, my apologies to any offence caused :o)

    I'd Love to see that essay!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    i dont think that ladder theory is true because most of my mates are male and i sincerely doubt 99% of them are interested in me.
    and the one percent is just my default margin of error :p

    Perhaps you are identified under the men's ladder theory as either

    Kellie or Ingrid :p

    Sorry, had to!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,875 ✭✭✭Seraphina


    yeah but that would be ignoring the ladder theory because why would they be hanging around with me if they didn't want to **** me?

    cause they want to be friends with me?
    exactly
    the ladder theory is faaaaaaaaar too general


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 68,317 ✭✭✭✭seamus


    Ladder theory is a load of my arse. I've said that before, now I'm saying it again.

    This guy is obviously some sex-starved nerd who's bitter about all the women who've turned him down in the past, and has put all his frustration into trying to show that the problem isn't his lack of humour and bad smell, no it's the rest of the world that's wrong.

    :rolleyes:

    Gimme a break


  • Banned (with Prison Access) Posts: 23,556 ✭✭✭✭Sir Digby Chicken Caesar


    or it's all a very very clever joke that you people just aren't getting.


    I see that alot

    Hmm more comfortable with the sex-starved nerd theory and being the butt of some joke for believing this (unknown to myself); people get their laughs and I no longer have to consider ladder theory - it's just too cynical to believe imho. Though it may well apply in some cases.
