I’m sick of all this stereotyping! 😡 You know, we’re not all shallow…..I actually prefer busty brunettes! :diablo:

I hate bigguns and I totally detest plastic ones.

I see what you mean about stereotypes old shape,but I thought you would have been old enough and wise enough by now to know you just can’t pigeonhole people like that.I have read of some women who genuinely claim that they choose to wear the burkha because they feel that it liberates them from the tyranny of being judged by how attractive they are.But of course youl’d never do that,would you ?

Well, pigeonholing is not a bad thing either.
Any man that claims to look at a woman and not mentally note her attractiveness or not, is a total liar. Or Gay.
No matter how professional the meeting is, or for what reason, the first 4 seconds sight of that person will make your decision on that person. As you get older and wiser, that decision improves from 70% correct to 85% correct. The other 15% – tough, their loss. Women of course seek a bit more depth, but are still affected by the immediate impact of somebody they find attractive.
We choose our life partners to have offsprings and replace ourselves. So, one doesn’t choose a person that doesn’t set off some sparks. Appearance initially then, if your lucky like I was (Eventually!!!), the person is perfect too.
I could not, and would not sleep/date/marry a gal that didn’t appeal to me physically. I wouldn’t even waste lifespan on chatting her up “Just in case” she had a great personality. I couldn’t spend years lying next to a gal I didn’t fancy sexually.

As for the tyranny of being judged how attractive they are, sorry, that’s modernist bull. Every woman wants to look good, it’s 100% human nature to want to feel attractive.
You look good, we chase, babies are made. End of.

Not that you’re ever one to confuse the boundary between opinion and fact, Old Shape. 😀 :diablo:

For the record, Stella is by no means at the top of my drinks list, I only drink it in my local because it’s better than the alternatives of Carling and Carlsberg. I’ve spent enough time in Europe to know what decent beer is. 🙂

Opinion? No, I headed a very large Marketing study (Years ago) on the brewing industry of UK, and how it’s sole intention is to fleece the young and gullible. Or, to put it in correct terminology “Demographic targetting”.

As for your pub, he only puts those on so you are forced into the Stella.

Morris dancers at our local folk festival made my daughter and me laugh so much that we cried.I’ve never seen so many grey pony-tails,and that was only the men .

Morris dancing (Like all dancing) is based on sexual conquest and fertility.

But yes, they do look a bit iffystupid.

A blurred tree trunk? I can’t see the tennis player in it though:p

I can, white body and a skin coloured arm.

Aside from that, a stunningly magic shot!

SUNSHINE !! Why do people say it’s TOO hot ?

Agree!! My grass died in April, the soil now has 1 inch cracks in it.
I’m getting a tan. Bring it on!

Too hot is 45 degree C heat outside, and me stuck inside a T72 tank in the desert, seeing if a new firing mechanism was OK. I sweated away about a stone!!

This forum tends to have a problem with stereotypes.
If one did not stereotype, one would hardly make a decision on people. We HAVE to make a decision on other people. If I see a filthy scruffy tramp in the streets of London, I know he will ask for money and then spend it on booze or drugs. I don’t care if I’m wrong, the stereotype is good enough for me to avoid eye contact.
If I see a woman in a Chastity gown, I know she is from a repressed and twisted religion, and the man 40 paces ahead of her in the street is her husband. The other male 20 paces ahead of her is their son.
If I see a gang of youths on a street corner, hoodies on, usually “Ethnic” I know that they are most likely out to mug or knife ordinary people. I don’t care if I’m wrong, the stereotype gives me the caution signal.

Because it is always western powers claiming to take the moral high ground in terms of foreign policy and preaching to other religions/cultures/countries all in the name of claiming to be morally superior, when in actuall fact it is rather more to do with national interests.

Because we are right.
