"You can keep sounding like you have a superiority complex and that's ok too... just don't expect to make many female friends. Also, be prepared to shoot yourself when your body no longer responds the way you want it to (what if you got sick and GASP! got ugly?) And for the record, contrary to 'popular' belief, women can be excellent friends, and female friendship is one of the sweetest things I have ever known.<whisper voice off"

Isla, I get your point. But luckily, I don't look for female friends. I looooooove men and fall in love with men, befriend them the most and get close to them the most. For every stage of my life, I only had at most one female close friend. I prefer male friends and love them. I feel it is much easier too for me to get along with them. They tend to have my kind of interest philosophically, character-wise and realistically. However, I wouldn't hesitate to defend my gender when men are treating them wrong. :p

I have noted that almost always females are hasty to get envious, gossip, etc. And gossipping is my biggest dislike. I also believe in complimenting, not hating. However, when I find a great female friend, I'm not slow to befriend her.

Thanks for your input so far. I will take it into consideration in the event that I should revise my belief system.

See, now that screws it up! Now the thoughts in my head are uninviting. Thanks:frown:

um, what else could a woman that height and weight be? :p

I'm still trying to wrap my head around a mental image of that. 5'8" and 114lbs ... :confused: :confused: :confused:

I mean, 5'2" easily. But another six inches on top of that? Stretch Armstrong.

No 5'9" -- she did not look emaciated or "bony" at all. My point is some people are born looking like that, but it's very rare. Most women with those numbers would look very bony and emaciated. And most women I know would want to be larger and have more muscle (she has always been physically "weak", something that bothers her). Some who are naturally not like that read a magazine and feel inadequate and do great psychological and physical damage to themselves trying to become like her, when they would look more beautiful following their own natural form.

*sigh* It's not very well distributed, let's put it that way (chubby at best). I was hoping for the best (I'm taking a girl out to dinner next week who's 5'6" 135lbs but she's like a supermodel cause it's mostly muscle because she's on the varsity college rowing team). Anyway, that's the end of that. I deleted the pic because I received it on my computer at work; trust me it wasn't worth it. Besides, she sent me a pic a week prior to this and then a couple days back told me that she sent me the wrong pic "by accident". Ahem. Right. Especially after I confirmed it. Don't even think of starting another flame. This thread has gone far enough. Thanks for all your kind words. Some day I'll post some pics that I don't mind myself.

There's nobody here gossiping about you,in fact the women here are sending you feedback about how you come off pretty directly.Btw, I highly doubt many of the women here envy you anything.

Well, I'm 5'7" and 190. I'm not really fat but I'm not really thin or muscular either. ;)

Blind date? Or get hooked up online and want to meet in person?

You're not gonna see her if people here consider 5'6" and 140lb to be fat?

When you meet her, you know!

If you are really a jerk, then IM her about her measurement (not just chest, waist, and hip, but also tighs, calves, and head!).
