gods gift to man

im going to travel into unsafe waters this morning, get a little intimate with you all. doesnt that sound wonderful.


i read that book that i posted in an earlier entry, average american male. at first, the plot seems pretty weak. in fact, there doesnt even appear to be a plot. a sex driven guy dates a future driven girl, and they end up breaking up before a marriage that the guy never even wanted in the first place. he then starts dating a new girl, who at first is everything that his ex girlfriend is not. but then, she follows the same path. and at the end, the guy knows its not going to get any better than that, so he decides to marry her. the overall theme being to settle for less. no guy is going to date an 18-24 year old horny girl his entire life. at some point, something has to be good enough.


anyway, this book has got me thinking a lot about my own perspective as a guy, and my point of view on women. i feel like this guy is too relatable. and im not sure if thats a good thing or a bad thing.


i suppose everyone has some sort of 'standards' [god i hate that word], but is it wrong that 90% of mine are sexual? the first thought that crosses my mind is how she is going to be in the sack. i mean, looking at any given 8 on a 10 point scale on any given day, she may be an 8 on looks, but she may then drop or add a point or two after the conclusion is made.


sometimes she has an insanely obnoxious voice that i know i wouldnt be able to get off to without the secret placement of ear plugs in the dark. sometimes its her laugh that wont take me past a first date. sometimes, an absolute 10 is sitting at a table across from me, until she turns her head 45º and the bone structure of her face goes hand in hand with that of caveman. im then convinced she's the descendant of some sort of slow-evolving neanderthal who never knew the difference between sex and sniffing squirrel shit.


which ironically is sort of admirable.
