    Which, oddly enough, was probably at least part heiniken by-product.

    Sleepy:

    I can't stand the new breed of dizzy, "I wanna marry a rich man", peroxide blonde, fake tanned, burberry/flavour of the month wearing, britney-speers-wannabe spanners that pass for Irish women. Yet, tbh, I'm not into the whole goth look either. So, until Kiera Knightly or Natalie Portman drop by, I think I'll be single for a while longer, unless some gorgeous, classy, intelligent, funny but warped enough to laugh at my jokes, soulful, cute, sensual, kind and sincere girl out there wants to prove me wrong about their existence in Ireland?

    No, I thought not

    and btw, ravenhead, Budweiser is a very poor imitation of a beer... :P

    I agree with you there sleepy.

    Most girls, but graciously not all, in Ireland these days look and act like ejits.

    I think they act like ejits cause of the stuff they wear. The more you bare the more you dare. Attitude change with

    Seriously, River Island and Oasis are the breeding ground for these gals.

    Usually with bellies hanging out.

    Flipflops with turned up jeans. Fake nails. Fake streaky brown blond hair, usually tied up in a bun, fake tan (usually just on the calf of the leg-no higher!). Fake ugly plastic looking jewellry, colourful belts.

    Do they not realise they all look the same?

    Fake fake fake

    Be yourself, not something fake.

    That's what I was trying to get at. Good first impressions are all very well, but when the entire first impression is based on someone basically wearing a big mask to cover something, whether it be a lack of depth, or BO, it becomes useless.

    Stop trying to attract people with what are essentially lies.

    I completely agree with you ... that's why I never shop in places like that - I would hate to go out for a nite & have nearly everyone in the pub looking the same as me -- no way I hate that... Thank god i'm dark at least that one other thing that's different!! Highlights go away!!

    I used to drink pints, but they fill you up too much (I used to drink pints of Guinness).

    I have since moved onto drinking gin....

    A lot of my female friends drink those poxy alcopops and they get raging hangovers the next day, whereas I drink gin and I am usually hangover free. All the sugar in those goddamn alcopops.... yuck.

    Why is it a turn off for a woman to drink pints though?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    Is it?

    Why didn't anybody tell me these things?

    Honey, it's not you, it's your preferred drink size...

    It's not exactly a turn-off, it was just considered un-ladylike by generations before us. In fairness, a pint glass is hardly the most feminine of accesories.

    Not all men find it a turn off but speaking from a girls point of view - it really doesn't look well. you go to all the trouble of getting dressed up & then spoil it by having this massive pint in your hand!!

    Ah sure a couple of hours later they have something else in hand.

    What?
    WHAT?!

    Are you telling me there are women out there who go out of an evening and deliberately MATCH their drinks to their outfits?

    What has the world come to.....

    Generations before us also believed that when you were marrying a girl, you had to ask her fathers permission first. You also weren't allowed to eat meat on a Friday. Women weren't really meant to go to pubs. Holding hands with a man in public labelled you as a "brazen hussy" etc...

    Times change, people change. The "generations before us" thing doesn't ring true for 2004. A pint glass has no feminine qualities? Look at the shape of a pint glass.... Its a lot more feminine than a tumbler.

    hahaha....

    as long as there not drinking toilet duck... who gives a f*ck

    Only if you're an opera singer.

    All I'm saying is that from a girls point of view it really doesn't look good - grand if your at a concert or something like that, knock yourself out but on a sat nite out, on the pull, dressed to the nines ... that pint kind of puts a dint in the look!


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 31,967 ✭✭✭✭Sarky


    But if "the look" is an illusion anyway, what does that matter? I'd far prefer to see the real someone behinde the make up and shiny tacky accessories.

    Oh God.

    "On the pull"?!

    Embee, like I said, it's not something that'd put me off a girl, I just think it's a little more elegant when they don't and personally, elegance is something I like in women. I know I'm not explaining myself well here... start again:

    If a girl was drinking from a pint glass, that fact wouldn't stand out to me. If I noticed a girl drinking from, say a wine glass or tall half pint glass, that would stand out to me as a positive. It's a cherry on top for me, not a requirement or anything like it.
