She's an Ideal Woman:Anyone Else?

An ideal woman is someone who is a 7 out of 10 for looks. Is generally happy, easy to please. Capable and earns money so you don't need to endlessly pay for everything. Smart in such a way she understands economics and politics.

The last thing you want to do is date a 9 out of 10. Predatory dogs will be constantly hitting on her and will make your life a misery.

Your thoughts?

Agree...you're describing the girl you take to meet your parents.

Sounds about right. Even better if she's three feet tall with no teeth and she turns into a pizza at midnight

So what you're saying is if you want to be happy for the rest of your life, never make a pretty woman your wife.

From your personal point of view, get an ugly girl to marry you?

I've been with a 9/10 ( nobodies perfect) for 38 years just gone. Neither one of us has gone astray. Predatory dogs don't bother me at all. My wife is quite comfortable telling them to f$%k off.

I have always been attracted to strong, intelligent, independent women.
Go9d looks don't hurt either.

women are people it turns out. i tend to judge them as people, not as objects.

i find i work best with women who are highly educated, rebellious, and artistic. i only tend to work well with techy/engineering women if they have an extra dose of non-conventional, often not educated in the USA helps, as i find that the sexism of STEM school/careers has lead to a lot of techie women to expunge the most fun, silly, and interesting parts of their personality, in favor of tough professionalism, that is boring to me.

i have no fear of "predatory dogs" as 1. if they are indeed predatory, they are terrible people and no one is attracted to them, and 2. if by this you just mean other men are interested, if they are have a better match with her than i do ... she should be with them.

And she teaches you, however brutal the methods, to treat her with respect. Hopefully you'll learn fast.

(Some spicy language but not throughout.)

#1 question:

Can she cook*?







*Sandwiches don’t count. That’s automatic, being a sex-linked genetical trait.

That's exactly it. Guys often talk about women being crazy. We're all crazy. THe secret is to find someone who's particular version of crazy matches or complements your own, so that you're each willing to live with each other.
