> First question you would ask is why then do women have sex with men? Well it’s a transaction. If a man gives her enough resources and emotional commitment, she will give him sex in return. She’ll allow the penis to go inside her. She doesn’t feel any attraction to it, she just knows it makes her man happy, and if he’s happy then she’s happy.

I would not base your future mating strategy off this assumption. As you grow up, you are going to experience a very large number of women having casual sex, affairs and relationships with men who are quite obviously unsuitable both emotionally and financially. Because they are attracted to them.

In many cases you are going to ask yourself “What do they have that I don’t?” The obvious answer is that they are attractive, an answer you will miss if you are proceeding on this reasoning.

And hell, with this as your reasoning, your definition of success in the mating game is going to be marrying a woman who is totally uninterested in you sexually and only want you for your money. Which is, you know, not actually a success. More like the opposite really.

This being the pit and all, I do feel I have to point out that these assumptions can only be held by someone who has never experienced being sexually attractive to a woman.

Clearly the female orgasm is a myth, because women only have sex as some kind of material or emotional transaction, so there is no other reason for a woman to have sex, and now i feel sorry for his gf, assuming she actually exists.

Ha. Finally sent to the pit.  
I’m honestly surprised it took this long.  
And with an OP packed with this much foolishness, cudos to those who have continued to present logical and restrained responses. I thought I wanted to lay some harsh words on the kid, but I just don’t have the heart now.  
**Faylasouf** , you should appreciate just how gently the wolves are gumming on you.

I will say you need to stop thinking of womenfolk as alien creatures feeding off the material and emotional sustenance of their male hosts while suppressing their innate revulsion of the D.

As to your GF’s disgust at receiving an unsolicited dick-pick, my very unscientific assumption is that the primary purpose of such package deliveries is seldom to elicit the delight of the recipient.

As for your assertion that most men suffer a delusion that their willies are attractive to women, to that I wish to say _poppycock!_ And by “wish to say”, I mean I can’t, because I honestly don’t know how the majority of my brethren feel about the aesthetic merits of their members; nor do I much care. For my part, I have never thought that my wang might be particularly attractive to women, nor that it might be especially repulsive.

I guess what I’m saying is _don’t get so hung up on your tackle_, and don’t assume that others must be too.

This would be true … of course only if most of those men are in the OP’s 7th grade gym class.

Good grief, you’re a fucking idiot. Do you require assistance figuring out how to get out of your room every morning? Why don’t you leave commentary on the study of human behaviour to those with an education, or you know, a functioning brain?

I’m with **Broomstick** on this one: you are oh so wrong.

As a matter of fact, my monthly newsletter from the Church of Cock, of which I am a proud member 😃 has this inspirational message:

“Part of CoC’s core doctrine is All Cock is Good Cock and we really mean it. No matter what size your cock is, we here at the CoC believe it is beautiful and worthy of honor and worship”

So there.

That’s why there’s cosmetic botox for the scrotum. Smooths those wrinkles right out.

I’ve bolded a couple of things in the quote above. Online videos are worthless. Anyone who was actually interested in the topic would be searching academic databases, where studies have already been done, most particularly on the reasons that people have sex.

I’ve only found one penectomy story funny and that was because they guy’s name was John Wayne Bobbitt.

One thing that you have to remember when judging women’s reactions to the sight of sudden, random penes is that they’re not just feel-good tools, they’re also baby-guns. First because they can cause actual babies and second because some guys think that if they can sneak one inside of you, they get to treat you like you’re their mother. So the sight of one generally triggers an urge to establish context, rather than an urge to judge aesthetics.

And I have to say that if you were disappointed that your girlfriend didn’t find a random, unsolicited dick pic attractive (when you thought it looked fine), then maybe you just find dicks more attractive than most people do. If you want to see some really cute ones, try googling Ursula Vernon phalloi. They’re adorable.

OP is unable to differentiate between “unsolicited dick pics or flashings are disgusting” and “all dicks are disgusting.”

Context matters.

(ETA: The fact that he felt he needed to comment on the aesthetics of the unsolicited picture is a tell.)

Not wants to know. Has decided all women feel in the same way, and ignores actual women who disagree.

I think it’s because in some small way, some of us can relate…slightly.

Now hear me out (before I get myself on the wrong side of this flaming…)

For some guys, when they’re very young if they don’t have much interaction with girls they can start to get some weird ideas about relationships. They see that women don’t generally respond well to overtly sexual approaches and try to make sense of that while viewing women’s sexuality on the same spectrum as men’s.  
And they may see guys who are high status apparently get a lot of attention, and then BOOM – they see what sex is “really” about; the “truth” everyone pretends to not see.

Fortunately, most such lads eventually pick up enough dating / relationship experience, and maturity, to appreciate that women’s sexuality is _different_, on average, not _less_. And the astonishing fact that being attractive to most women is \*\*neither \*\*sending them dick pics, nor trying to brag about your success or cash.

But some minority of guys get bitter about the whole thing. The OP ISTM is much too far gone, sad to see.

The OP should date all the mtf transsexuals DerekMichaels was terrified of - they might be more tolerant of the sight of the wang, having had one themselves.
