No, they are not. And I'd say women would agree with me in saying that most men reach the height of their sex-appeal 10-15 years later than women.

I'll be an exception to that rule. I've always gone for younger blokes - I don't even realise I'm doing it. It wont be a massive difference (at 27 it can't be, there's laws against it...) but I definately prefer them in their twenties rather than mid thirties to forties or older.

Or should this be going in the unpopular opinion thread?

It really depends on the person though, I just find that men tend to age worse than women overall.

so the entirety of gender satisfaction revolves around urination and masturbation?

... depth.



really though, i don't see satisfaction on either side of the gender debate. the 'hotness' angle is at best relative, though mostly dumb. women crap on themselves because they're women and they've been raised and repressed for so long they still don't know how to balance themselves on their own two feet properly. men acted on instinct rather than thought for too long and have a hard time letting the brain think rather than allowing the body to act.

we have old people telling us we should respect the differences, other generations refusing to acknowledge there even are differences, and now a youth that seems to try to eliminate the differences by taking on each others instead.


myself, i'm just sick and tired of being made to feel like i should apologize for having a penis. males and females ARE different, but we ARE both still human. i think both the similarities AND differences need to be recognized and respected on both sides of the gender spectrum. we're not asexual hermaphrodites for a reason - though i'm sure some people would prefer it that way.

I agree with most of what you said. I've ranted about this before regarding phony radical feminists and how they seem to be ashamed of their distinctions from men rather than proud of them.

Also, unlike you I treat this sh*t lightly so I don't want it to be taken too seriously.

I take this topic too seriously? hahahaha


yes and no. you mention an easy example in your comment as well, men have more upper body strength. it's not something i ever tried to have more of than my little sister, i just did because of the chemical composition of my body. choice? not applicable. but you still see plenty of people who try to deny the fact that it's about the biological specialization of the gender through either the guise of equality or the disdain of chauvinism. you must remember the classic line from our youths (whatever boys can do, girls can do better!). basically the message i've gotten from society since the late 70s is pretty much - hey guy, you have it all and don't actually deserve any of it and you're the reason your mom is sad.

just to be clear i'm NOT a 'get in the kitchen and make me a sandwich woman' kind of guy either.

and yes, hermaphrodites happen but they're quite rare. though it's still technically wrong to call them asexual as they can't reproduce by themselves.

You're the one who was bitching because people weren't getting in depth enough. But if you read some of the past pages you'd see that your complaints have been met so STFU.

Wait a minute, since when did hemaphrodites not have sexual drives of any kind? I didn't know that.

Lady Gaga seems pretty horny to me.

As far as studies go, I have read that women's brains produce much larger amounts of oxytocin (a sort of "soothing" hormone calming to the emotions) than men's brains do in stressful situations. This and women's proficiency at multi-tasking make women more efficient managers of stress.
