its more like the other way around, guys are out to USE all the girls they can. at least in the world.

It's impossible and unreasonable to make that broad of a generalization. You have had a bad experience. However, I am sure there are guys who have had bad experiences with girls. These individuals ...

i think statistically though, guys in the world use girls in the world, more then vice versa...guys are more driven, and girls have a lot more to lose...but of course it happens both ways

toxicgirl Dec 14, 2003

I wouldn't say guys are more driven. And I think girls convince themselves that they have more to lose. Just because guys don't exhibit feelings the same way girls do doesn't mean they feel less. ...

Guys may not feel less, but I think most guys handle emotional pressure better than most girls do.

I don't know if "handle...better" is the best way to phrase that. I think it's more ignore it. Girls handle emotional pressure in a very good way- they talk with their girl friends. This is healthi...

I don't know if you understand what I mean. Under severe emotional pressure anyone will buckle, but what I'm talking about is more the amount of pressure needed to get a person to that point. It ...

I don't think this is true..girls just show it at a sooner point.

dgiaimo Dec 15, 2003

I thought that's what I was saying.

thatdarngirl Dec 15, 2003

No no..you said it takes less to make a girl upset. I'm saying that I don't think there is a difference in the amount it takes to get either gender upset but the difference lies in the way and when...

But acting indifferent isn't really showing the emotion, is it? I guess the reason I think this is that I've been thinking recently about why God decided to put men in the headship role. It's cer...

I don't know if i agree with that. Women are amazing at handling all kinds of emotional stress. And most women have a better pain threshhold than men. Also, tons of women are mothers, right? So the...

Crying relieves stress in women. It doesn't help me. If anything it gets me angrier and angrier until I do explode. Holding it in is the only way to maintain control. And after you've held it i...

Also, seeing guys cry, makes me feel weird sometimes. Like it depends why of course. But sometimes it's just very weird. Like Bruce Willis in his guest role on Friends that one time. SO weird.

Guys always say that eeing girls cry makes them flip out, and from experience it does, but seeing a guy cry totally makes me flip out. Oh my goodness. At the end of pioneer school we had this very reflective brother who was serious about the truth, comment first about what he got out of pioneer school, and he started getting choked up, and that set it off. Everybody was bawling!

But all things in moderation. My dad used to have a study that I've seen cry many times, and that's rare for a grown man. I used to question his emotional stability. And he turned out to be abusive.
