What she "should" be
| Tue, 01-10-2006 - 10:24am |
I was a little bored this morning and decided to look at some match.com profiles. I'm so glad that men have quit dressing us up in cocktail dresses and blue jeans but I notice a new trend in the laundry list that many men have in what they want in a woman:
She "should" act like a lady when she is in public, but in the bedroom she "should" be something else entirely.
What gives? Men have the audacity to order up women' proper behavior in the presence of company but she better have the bedroom personna of a well-paid prostitute? The nerve.
Perhaps women should start requesting bedroom performances that last more than a minute and erections you can bounce a quarter on.

You bet I demand erections that I can count on and
Ok then, those three guys (and whoever else makes the same statement) has the right to look for what they want.
This idea has even permeated the hip-hop music culture. I vaguely remember hearing the lyric ". . . lady in the streets, freak in the sheets" in a rap song before.
Can you really blame guys for wanting this though?

Honey, I'd like a guy who is 6 feet tall, bronzed, gorgeous, fit, a millionaire with no kids and exceptional manners, a super dynamo in the bedroom, doesn't drink, smoke or gamble, and treats me like a queen. But I'm realistic and would never write that on a profile.
What you want and what is polite to request are two separate things.
"Plus I think it's good in one important way - it let's you know right away not to contact him because he's not your kind of guy."
ITA.
I think people are totally within their right to put that kind of stuff in their profiles. Some people may not like it, but they can easily ignore those profiles. The people who want this kind of stuff have a better shot of finding what they want if they make it clear what that is.

My 90-year-old grandmother advocates for being "a lady in public and a tramp in private." It's an old saying.
Maybe those 5 guys were just listening to the advice of their grandmothers, which can't be all bad. ;-)
I agree that sex should be left out of profiles. I feel like it's a given that we all want hot sex -- but not all of us want JUST sex. These guys might be telling you right up front that that's all they want -- saves you the trouble of a broken heart later because you won't go out with someone who says that.
AJ, enjoying life with C.
