“Secret Aaaaaaagent Man! Secret Aaaaaaagent man! Sec-”
As a matter of national security, it is my opinion that everyone get laid with me… now. Let’s do the boogie. 
He’s not saying they’re hard to talk to. He’s just saying they’re boring and intellectually uninteresting to talk to.
Eh? Dating can be real fun. Especially if you don’t have a bunch of expectations. And if you’re a fun person.
But who only wants it?
No-one cares if you want NSA sex. It’s when you complain that you hate dating because you have to talk to women, and why don’t the women you date want NSA sex that it all gets annoying.
If you want NSA sex, go and fucking have some!
It’s not difficult, really it’s not, but the first step doesn’t involve taking someone on a date. Mostly it involves asking the person you fancy what they’re drinking, and then suggesting you share a bottle of it back at your place. How fucking hard is that?
Neurotik-exactly, and my point is that if he stuck around here he would be disabused of that notion. What with all the interesting, intellectually stimulating conversation from people he might not even realise are female until he’s talked to them for a while.
AT - Have you tried putting a paper bag over your head?
Another interpretation of this would be “I stopped trying to give women what I thought they wanted and started acting more like I really am.” Even if someone is kind of a jerk, I’ll probably like them more than I’ll like someone who’s trying to act a role. And I really hate it when someone makes assumptions about me without getting to know me.
You’re spot on, Missy. As a bisexual woman, I often find myself bored with the meaningless banter oozing from the mouths of the men and women I date. Can we just get a room already?
Argent Towers, there are plenty of places to find what you’re looking for. Just don’t waste the time of woman looking for relationships.
I think everyone has ranted about the opposite sex (Or the same sex, if they were homosexual) in a manner that, um, didn’t show their best side.
However, the appropriate forum for those rants is a dark room or bar with a few friends of the same gender, not a message board frequented by members of the gender you are complaining about.
I’m willing to cut Argent Towers a little slack before writing him off as a misogynist. Maybe he was on a few bad dates recently and needed to blow off steam. I agree that many of the things he said in the original thread were ridiculous, and I understand why women dopers are enraged by them, but I’m hoping they don’t represent his general view of women.

perks up So, how you doin’?
Well, speaking as a woman, I can certainly sypmathize with Towers.
Wait, no, I’m not! No, I don’t!
Aww, Zebra, I love you because of the Straight Dope Horror Movie. You rock
Not that NSA, dummy!
Excellent. 
Here’s an idea: Close your eyes, tap the heels of your ruby red slippers together three times and keep repeating; “There’s no disgrace for dykes or homos”.
Remember, keep your eyes closed…we don’t wanna blind you with the fairy dust.
Alright, here I am, and I’m going to try as best I can to respond to everyone here.
In fact, to counteract the vitriol and meanness and spur-of-the-moment thoughtlessness of my OP, I’m going to rephrase my whole entire point so that it might be a little easier to grasp my perspective:
“I’m attracted to women but I have not found one whom I feel as if I can connect with emotionally and intellectually. Sometimes I envy my homosexual peers for having carefree sexual hookups. But I am not gay, so I will have to have my own heterosexual dating experiences so I can learn more about women and about myself and discover how to make my relationships more fullfilling.”
That sounds a lot more civil, doesn’t it? It’s also closer to the truth of my feelings than my original post, so from now on, remember, a rant is just a rant - it doesn’t necessarily reflect my real feelings.
And I’ve been reading a lot of R. Crumb over the past 3 days.
First of all:
I’m 19. I can’t get into bars, so I can’t do this.
It’s a lot easier for people to talk on message boards than face-to-face, especially guys and girls. At least in my experience.
It’s not that I’m not interested in a committed relationship. It’s just that I haven’t yet met a girl whom I really feel I want to have commitment with. I feel more committed to my best (male) friend than I have ever felt with a girl. It was thinking about my relationships with my friends, and my relationships with girls, that motivated me to make my initial statement.
I don’t want to wallow in self-pity. If I wanted to do that I wouldn’t have posted a message to this forum that I knew was going to get a lot of people angry. I really did want to hear what other people had to say though.
There are a lot of reasonable comments being made in this thread, and there are also a lot of mean things being said about me which I think are out of proportion to my OP. Snide comments about my performance in bed, women “not sleeping with me to save their lives,” me being a “jerk,” and “putting a paper bag over my head.” You don’t know me. You don’t know what I am in person…you may well haven’t even read any of my posts in this forum besides the OP that put me here in the Pit. Just know this: that OP doesn’t reflect who I am any more than any one message can reflect any of your personalities. But when you insult me, you insult me, not the message.
Everyone, thanks for the feedback, good and bad. And I think that sooner or later I’ll find women I can relate to. I haven’t yet, though. But that doesn’t mean it won’t happen. And when it does, my attitude will probably change.
Aaaaaaaaaaaaahhhh*.
*No offense.
You’re 19.
Good luck with that growing up thing.
A classy reply to a pitting.
Remember that for the next time you get in a dust-up online. It’s easy to be misunderstood, and people will lash out at what they heard. Don’t let it get to you any more than the extent to which they have a point.
Sorry you’re not gay,

Your apparent nymphomania has nothing to do with your bisexuality.
