You know what I hate? These kind of people.Birdsong Lord Vyce It actually is an offense. Looks matter, even if only in the initial stages of a relationship. Or are you telling me that, if you were at a party, you'd choose the 300 lb. guy over the hunk as a conversation/dance partner? Looks are just as important as compatibility and personality in a relationship. I haven't exactly followed the thread of this conversation all the way through but I've got a BA in Lit, a minor in philosophy, and another minor in history and I'm working on a grad degree in Philosophy (primarily ethics). Sooo.. if the 300 lb guy is a 300 lb gorilla in any of the areas I mentioned and the 'hunky guy' is a shallow pea brain that cares more for looks than who the person actually is, for my part I'll pick the 300 lb intellectual gorilla, thanks. So, I guess my point is that to some people looks do not figure in as greatly as the total characte rof the person in question. Yes, it's true, I will not date a guy that is a slob. I willalso not date a guy that has bits hanging off him. That being said, I care more for the entire package than JUST butt, pec, and grin.
Nothing tastier than raw meat of stupid.

Ya know, though, Vyce, I get really intimidated around "incredibly attractive" people. ...or was that bored?
Anyway, it's all the same to me. I'd rather go to a party and meet people for their interesting-ness first, and then possibly go into the whole "omg lets have sex" and relationship thing.
Personally, I've never found one-night-stands or "OMG he's hot" types of things to be my cup of tea. But then again, I often go to parties where I know everyone there, and I'm there to have fun.
And the fact that I'm married to the sexiest man alive.
Heh.
But I am really pissed off at people who keep going on and on about how since I'm married that things are now supposed to get "hard" and "not fun" and "now that you can't leave anytime, you have to compromise"
What the ********?! We have a very healthy and functional relationship BEFORE we got married, so what the ******** is up with people going on about how we're going to have to "compromise" like I'm a five year old who doesn't grasp the concept? I know how to share, I know how to pull my own weight, and I sure as hell love to make him happy. It's one of my basic modes of behavior.
It's weird how people seem to think that getting married before considering the financial, moral, and political beliefs of one another is smart AT ALL.
Hell, I wouldn't even get engaged to him until we both could sit down and either agree to disagree, or work through our belief systems. I don't want to tie myself legally to a man who thinks that spending the entire paycheck on payday is good, but I don't want to be attached to a man who hoards every penny either.
And everyone seems to think it's somehow "amazing" that my husband can cook, clean, do laundry, etc. They think that it's "amazing" that he's not violent, stubborn, or power-hungry. They think it's "rare" that he respects me and brings lunch for me when he can, and they think that it's utterly unheard of that he likes going shopping with me.
I weep for the state of gender roles and the forced modes of behavior that we're constantly being shoved into.

Well, I certianly dislike the people who go on and on about what their credentials are, as if it gives me reason to agree with them. It's like, umm, hello, no matter what book you've read/written, or what you've majored in, if your argument sucks, it still sucks, and i doesn't have any validity. End of story. No, your 18912640 IQ doesn't help either. rolleyes
But, personally, I, too, can get a bit intimidated by people who, perhaps more importantly, think they're horribly attractive and that everyone should like them for that. That kind of does come through in the way they carry themselves. There are certain things that come through in a person's conduct based on their views, which things can generally either draw me away or bring me closer at first sight. Of course, it's not absolute, and sometimes I'm wrong. *shrug*
It is interesting, though, that the person said she chose personality and intellect over looks, and then went on to say that looks matter too, which is exactly what you said. There are some physical appearances that people just do not mesh with, just as there are some personalities that people just don't mesh with.
Oh, and back to microwaves.
I don't know, but I've always found that microwaved things, even reheated, just don't taste as good as things cooked the real way. Plus, microwaves do some weird things with drying things out and separating water.
So, basically, I prefer non-microwaves. Which is all fine and dandy, because I don't have a microwave.

About a month ago, I saw something that just made my blood boil. To the point of where I wouldn't bleed if cut, only expel misty red steam. I'm talking about the Pro-choice people who use the "fetus=parasite" argument when their normal argument is torn to shitty pieces.
When someone says "Ugh, they're just parasites that suck you dry, and when they're born they need you for everything. Not only that, but they cause deficiency in nutrients for the mother! How is that good in any way?" I just want to smite them. And I don't mean with my p***s. They don't deserve to see me whipping it out.
By definition, a parasite depends on another living being not of its own species for every aspect of its life. When it is born, it sucks on the nutrients of the host. When it grows, it feeds off tissue from the host, going so far at times to killing the host from eating their organs. When it mates, it does so nside the host, and when it lays eggs, it uses the host as a nest, food reserve and incubator. A fetus, then, can't be a parasite.
A fetus only feeds from nutrients from its mother because it has no choice, it needs to do this to survive. I don't see fetuses as able to get food for themselves elsewhere, do you? A pregnant female "eats for two". She needs nutrients for herself and the baby. How is that unfair in anyway? There are vitamins she can take, nutritionists she can visit and foods she can eat to have a healthy pregnancy without incidents. Mammals are not the only ones. An egg comes with a reserve of nutrients that the embryo feeds on, a very similar situation, but the difference lies on the source of said nutrition. It's the reason why most mammal newborns surpass "egg-babies" in size, strength and weight the moment they're born, even if, by relative sizes, smaller animals mature faster.
When a baby is born, it can't fend for itself. Have you ever seen a mammal that could fend for itself when it's a baby? There are exceptions, of course, but they aren't a lot, are they?
If you're Pro-choice, that's fine and all, you're in every right to think that way. But I can't stand this "baby=parasite" thing. Every time I hear it I want to shoot someone.
