God, so atrocious in the Old Testament, so attractive in the New--the Jekyl and Hyde of sacred romance.
-Mark Twain
If people are good only because they fear punishment and hope for reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed.
-Albert Einstein
Though utterly degrading themselves just to get laid doesn't make them any kind of a winner.
I used to think men have it much harder than women because they have to put a lot of work into not getting rejected, until I had a chance to talk to a lot of women about their experiences. You'd think that because men put a lot of work into putting themselves out there and get rejected often they get laid less than women, but the opposite is true. Despite of the hardship men on average still get laid a lot more than women and don't have to put up with the social stigma that comes with being a slut like women do. I've known some gorgeous looking women, 9 out of 10s and their sex lives aren't as spectacular as most people would imagine. Some average looking guy who just keeps trying to get laid until someone says yes has a lot more happening in his sex life than a really beautiful woman.
Also, the goals are different. Guys are usually just looking to get laid and rarely look beyond that achievement. Women are more inclined to find a keeper. A much more difficult task that requires a lot more foresight and intuition.
Don't cry, don't regret and don't blame
Weak find the whip, willing find freedom
Towards the sun, carry your name
In warm hands you are given
Ask the wind for the way
Uncertainty's gone, your path will unravel
Accept all as it is and do not blame

Mish, you seem like a good kid and all, your heart's in the right place, but I have to say those knight pics make me laugh everytime I see them
what am I suppose to be looking at?
I confess to being confused by this logic. If men are getting laid, then so are women? Unless the men are gay or they are all having sex with the same few women?
Surely the more likely conclusion is that men & women are both screwing the same amount but women are hiding it? Helped by the fact that there's a good fraction of men who are discreet?
Second thoughts can generally be amended with judicious action; injudicious actions can seldom be recovered with second thoughts.

I've never heard of men having a higher number of sexual partners on avg than women. The way I understand it, more women than men have had sex but this is balanced out by those select men having more sexual partners since they more desirable by women.

Okay.
For men.
You can be moderately attractive and you WILL have a hard time finding a relationship.
For Women.
You can be moderately attractive and you WILL get lots of men wanting to root you and be your boyfriend.
That is the difference.
^ BAHHHHH hahahahaha okay... I call your bullshit. Prove that.
That isnt true george, at least not where i live!
edit: Ok, maybe guys want to have sex, but thats about it.
Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments that take our breath away.
Oh, come on QWERTY, you don't have to say White just because George said Black.
Please.
Moderately attractive, even handsome men sometimes find it hard to break through womens' instinctive-rejection barrier; but modestly attractive women only need to stand still for a little while to have their choice of a dozen panting hopefuls.
That's a universal truth, except perhaps in countries where marriages are arranged and women are stuck with chaperons and burkas. Has GB become one of those?
When in trouble,
Or in doubt,
Run in circles,
Scream and shout.
