What is it about guys that makes us girls go funny?
Its been however many years since the feminist revolution that taught us that its safe to be ourselves, that we don't have to measure ourselves by how many guys look at our legs/bust/ass, that we can be proud just to be ourselves and to live our own independent lives.
This would all be fine and good except that the majority of us born in this time of freedom and equality don't particularly want to be liberated. Oh sure, we are happy to take the legacy the feminists left us and go forge our own careers and be money-earners in our own rights. But at the end of it, we still want guys to look at us covetously and to find us physically attractive. Why must we feel this way? I still haven't found any satisfactory answer as to why i can have a dozen friends who have proven in countless ways how much they care for me, yet if i don't feel like my bf is pining after me i feel like i have somehow failed. And i have seen it in other people's relationships around me too, even in an otherwise happy stable relationship, if the girl doesn't feel like she is physically wanted she will not be completely happy.
Damn these female hormones of ours is all i can say. Damn them to hell

(Anonymous) 2005-08-20 03:27 pm (UTC)(link)What is the use of formidable intellect when all a girl wants is ripples? Blasted strumpets!

i think not..
And not all girls are fixated on ripples, as you say. I've seena lot of my friends (and myself) going for guys who aren't the physicial ideal but are a lot of fun to be around

poor use of narrative structure, no characters (? prose?), no setting, no gentle caressing lead in for the reader
you'll have to try a lot harder if you want to achieve a band 5 result, let alone band 6
