My wife has a friend who is always whining that she cant find a man.

Don't women realize that if they are even moderately attractive, they can go anywhere and have their pick from all the single guys and roughly half the married guys too?

They don't like sex.

It really is that simple.  Just ask my wife.  She doesn't like it - it is a constant cause of contention in our house (and I'll probably get skinned for this post alone).

Seriously - if I had known then what I know now about her, I probably would have passed her by.  But she was/is soooo good lookin' [:)]

I think it's a combination of the situation typified by Big Bear's joke and the fact that men and women communicate in two different languages.

Men say things, and try to communicate information with the words that come out of their mouths. That's it. The dictionary meaning of the words spoken, plus a little basic seventh grade sentence diagramming, will translate the noises coming out of a man's mouth into the meaning he is trying to impart.

Women, on the other hand, view words as mere vehicles for some deeper meaning. They spend a great deal of time trying to pry into a man's head and heart to divine what he really means by the noises that come out of his mouth. "I'd like some more macaroni and cheese," must be some sort of value judgement on the person who prepared the mac and cheese or a judgement on the mac and cheese preparation skills of the woman hearing those noises. What women fail to recognize is that men only communicate on the direct, concrete, literal level. There [b]is no deeper meaning[/b] behind the words we say.

It's like a cryptographer trying to decipher the meaning of a bowl of Alpha-Bits. Hey, it's just breakfast cereal, and it's getting soggy so get outta my way.

I remember seeing a picture of some super model with the caption "No matter how hot she is, someone somewhere is tired of putting up with her shit"!  And most men and women have the same problem, we choose poorly. But then if more women were like Miss_Magnum, at least I would be happier.

I think women have a genetic code which directs them to mate with the man most capable of providing a secure life for them and their future offspring.  
I've been in sales of one kind or another for 20+ yrs., and as soon as 90% of the women I've dealt with see my ring and the fact that I'm not hitting on them, start to hit on me.
They love a challenge and are surprised for the most part when some guy treats them just like another person instead of another p***y.

i can't say about wemen...  but this guy is single because..

1) i have never met a girl who is singlew and interested in the same things as me.

2) when i am not working, sleeping, or running around trying to pay bills, i am here, so i have no time / money for them..

3) i dont drink, so i have no life (personally or otherwise). no way to find em.

4) the "one" for me will have to be,,,,,,,well,,,,,, like me. unattached with no emotional baggage, no kids (absolutely no risk of that here[;)]), and big time into guns, and survivalism.

so there you have it, i am single and if there is a woman out there like tis for me, ill go almost anywhare.. (kalifornia, and other states exempted)

From what I've seen, women suffer from biology. They chase after "dominant/alpha male" guys regardless of whether or not those men would actually make them happy, and they tend (imho, both because of biology and social conditioning) to tend away from solving their problems themselves, hoping others will do so for them.

Tell her to quit trying to force her opinion and rules down every guys throat, and be pleasant for a change.  Its about being able to be nice and talk about things other than ME.  Let her know that her attitude is scaring guys off because she is too whinny.

Stop getting their what?  I am a patient man, and I am an understanding person.  My wife doesn't work, I pay for someone to come and clean the house, I pull down a fairly large salary, so bills aren't a problem, I don't cheat, steal or lie.  I enjoy it most when she does, so how am I failing to ensure that she "gets hers"? (I don't mean to sound belligerent - I'm just very frustrated... in more ways than one) - I mean, I'm not perfect, but I would say that I'm a long shot better/faithful/nice-guy/etc... than most (and, yes, I do love my wife, very much)

Jarhead_22 has it right - up to a point - the other side of that story is that they then expect us to be able to decipher what they mean - because they [b]do[/b] tend to talk in standard words, but have further meaning.  To them, Macaroni and Cheese, means that [b]and[/b] something else - and that something else doesn't mean the same thing every time, either

a3kid - I kid you not... I feel like someone stranded in the desert at times, not knowing where or when my next meal or drink will come from.

Well, I really don't want to sound like a whining idiot, but the holidays just seem to bring out the argument on this issue and I guess I needed to vent - thanks.

When I was single, I was very successful (read promiscuous) with women.  The biggest reason women shy away from men, in my experience, is that SO MANY guys act desperate and needy.  "Bill" on "King of the Hill" is an only slightly exagerated example.
I, on the other hand, always bore myself with an air of self-confidence and made it clear in a nonverbal way that "I don't need to go home with you, honey, plenty more here equipped just like you."  As a result, I never lacked for female company.  Most men, on the other hand, tended to regard me as an arrogant a$$hole.  I'm exactly the guy they meant when they turned to their buddy on the stool next to them and whined "Why do women always pick the biggest a$$hole in the room to go home with?"
Get a clue, gentlemen.  Women want a man when they want a man.  If they want a whimpering baby, they'll give birth to one.

Well, you just proven that you're smarter than most of us !
You recognize the existence of a "female" language far more complez than even English.
(English example:  Since, sense, cents, etc., complex and difficult to learn.)

Now you walk into your "crib" and ask your "hide" how's everything going ?
The "hide" answers.."Fine."

Now the communications problems start.
"Fine" may mean .."I'm ready to screw your brains out and then let's order Chineese.

"Fine" may mean you're fifteen minutes late scumbag if you want to eat you'd better order Chinese.

Finally, admittedly unlikely but still possible, "Fine" might mean fine - but I doubt it !

Jarhead, you are exactly right.  Problem is, your answer was incomplete.  Don't forget that when you say something, there is also HOW you say it... your tone, the expression on your face, if you use your hands when you talk.  They see all of that plus hear what you are saying and will come up with the most absurd conclusion (to men, anyway).

The big thing is that women expect us to be in tune with their feelings and maybe its just me, from reading some of your comments, its not, but I have trouble telling what mood I am in, let alone how she is feeling.

Is the crew happy ?  (Obviously I mean as happy as any crew gets.)

Gentlemen, (and I use that term in the loosest possible way [:P]) thank you for validating my conclusions and for completing my extemporaneous thesis.

It is absolutely true that:

1. Women expect us hang-danglers, who only speak the English language (for the most part), to understand them when they speak in that Men are from Mars/Women are from Venus bullsheet language they speak where "I'd like some macaroni and cheese" can mean either, "Why haven't you met my simple need for sustenance, you uncaring prick?" or possibly "Do I look fat in these jeans?" or even "Where are the truffles, caviar and champagne you promised me in the unspoken female code language the day we met?"

2. The way you say something and the circumstances surrounding the statement aren't the icing on the cake, they're the cake itself when women are listening in that language that only they speak. Asking "Are you done in the bathroom?" takes on whole different shades of meaning depending on where you're standing, what look you have on your face or whether or not you're wearing that sweater that really makes the blue in your eyes stand out. Accept it and move on with life or get yourself a [url]www.realdoll.com[/url].

Keep lick'n that MEG'R and it will shock you...

Ok, I'll add one last thing. We are Battle "E" proficient, and we get the mission accomplished even though we are undermanned. It just means alot less duty sections than we would like, and more watches per person. Each person has to be that much more qualified because of it. And because of all those things, crew morale is low. But I believe that crew morale is low onboard any naval vessel except those floating cities that cannot ever seem to be undermanned.

Little to no effort is made to identify the father of the "Sea-babies". Well, not that I can tell.

You guys just don't know where to LOOK. Try an Oriental or Latino, you can have your pick of literally thousands of them, with an ad that costs you $50 or so. If they get snotty after they get US citizenship, there are more where she came from. She will KNOW that, too. Just be careful about how much ANY woman knows about your business, and don't necessarily buy a house, new car, etc with her around, or even have a joint checking account.
