Single women

[Turkish]

not that i have to worry about it as im in a long term relationship but there seems to be a real lack of quality about these days. For example i happened to watch "This morning" where a reasonable looking northern bird said she has been single for a year because she cant find Mr right. She then goes onto say that Mr Right, is Mr Grey, fron the book. She continues that she can down a pint of guiness in under a minute and hates men that are obsessed by football. I think i'm starting to understand why she is single.

 

Back in the real world, my work is packed full of women between 20-40 of varying levels of attractiveness. Most of them seem to fall into two categories, rough, gobby, geezer birds or precious, boring, senstive delicate, little flowers who look like they are on the verge of tears every 5 minutes. There are a few girls at work that are quality, good looking, well dressed, a good laugh that dont take themselves too seriously and you can have a laugh with but they are few and far between about one in twenty i'd say.

 

So come on single chaps, is this the reality or am i being overly harsh?

Spending lunch hours and evenings in London's Parks or along the South Bank in the sun, I've noticed around a million ridiculous hot women.

 

Yeah, i'm not saying there aren't any hot ones around. I was in London yesterday and it was quality. I'm more on about once they open their mouths and you get to know them.

Haven't been single for a very long time. Gotta say, one of the reasons I fell in love with Liverpool was the relatively high quality of ladies compared to those down south. For starters, most of them make an effort when they go out. Additionally, the number of women I've met up here that were up their own arses on account of their beauty can be counted on one hand, whereas "six pinters" tend to think they're god's gift down south.

No self respecting man should tolerate his bird drinking pints. It's the height of vulgarity, uncouthness and general fish wifery.

[Tokyo-Saint]

Do you find that as you get older, you are starting to prefer male company more and more Turkish?

 

A few drinks with the lads on a Friday night, a swim on a Saturday, a topless wrestle on a Sunday?

 

 

 

 

Seriously though, this is normal Turkish. As you get older and in a more stable relationship, your testosterone levels drop, you are getting enough boning at home and you therefore stop letting female looks brush over personality defects. When you were 20, you might have known deep down that Sharon in accounts was a boring Muppet but you were too obsessed trying to peek down her top to notice. Now, you don't obsess over her looks and have noticed that her collecting beany babies is not actually as cute as you thought it was 10 years ago, it is ****ing weird and you avoid talking to her, just in-case she brings them up in conversation, even if she does still have nice tits.

They put their knickers on over their sussies for quick removal ?

Have to agree with that fella. Northern birds are far better company than ones down here, much more down to earth and less pretencious. Far less sensitive to a bit of good natured p*ss taking as well.

Spot on I'd say! Far too many women trying to be blokes, far far too many. Have to agree with other posts as well, most Southern women are a pain in the backside with most being far too stuck-up and pretentious. I married someone from the midlands, not with a stupid accent though, that was important - but her and her friends are all more "normal", a good laugh, normal jobs, dress well and aren't stuck up or trying to be blokes.

 

But when I was last single, I totally agree with you, it was very difficult to find those decent, balanced women.

I agree, i like women to be ladies, if you know what i mean. There are few things more vulgar than seeing a fat woman with a tatoo on her arm drinking a pint. Regarding the northern bird on This Morning and her hatred of men who like football, then i'm not surprised she's single. Not wanting a bloke who likes football rules out about 80% of blokes and most blokes i know that dont like football are really wierd (although this forum proves that quite a few that do are as well). Couple that with a pint drinking bird and you've got a sealed over gash waiting to happen.

London has always been a hotbed for totty. Probably due to successful young people wanting to move there, and its multicultural demographic. We have to make do with what's left.

Was in London when we last had a little heatwave and the amount of skirt there is staggering on a sunny day.

This is very true, I work for a fashion wholesale company, and there are many very good looking sales reps, but when you talk to them, it would put off any single man with any self respect. As sales reps they are all like spoilt children, and look after number 1, and are so self centred. There is something that would put you off all of them in one way or another.

 

I am just glad I am not single, and have to go through the terrible hassle of dating...I was so so lucky that my now wife, just happened to be living in the shared house I moved into.

[Turkish]

I've just been told on the main board this thread is sexist!

[Give it to Ron]

I have just come back from Tenerife why is it that Spanish woman look stunning up to 35 then you hardly see a good looker after that? The number of gorgeous Spanish girls I saw then turned around and had garish tattoos....why do women have them

I have never seen one girl who looks better for them.

For Spanish also see Italians. Stunning up until they hit about 40, then it all goes down hill. I'm off to near Venice in a 5 weeks for another and expect the women to be as stunning as the city.

I can understand why someone might believe that, but amazingly, I'm in your corner for this one.

 

Sexism, as I understand it - is discrimination against someone based on their gender. Ok, people have expressed preferences and a couple of likes and dislikes, but I don't think anyone has said "women are sh!t because they are women" - and I'm pretty fecking positive that women also talk about the sort of men they like or don't like.

[Bearsy]

I don't like single women. I prefer them in twos and threes.

 

Lols I'm so funny with my jokes! Man you guys is lucky to have me round making great jokes like dat!

As I'm married to a norvern lass I'd have to agree.

[Bearsy]

I'd like to see Turkish's ideas of good natured p*ss taking tho what he lays on the lucky ladies! Is it like what he does to MLG on here?

Northern Italian women age better than their southern cousins. I've met plenty that are well into their 50s & are still drop dead stunning.

 

The best Italian women are to be found in places like Parma.

Just a bit of good natured stuff, it's a fine balancing act. The lads at work say that i've got it nailed. Say something nice but in a way that the girl isn't sure if i'm taking the p*ss or not. Although i'm reminded to this day of a ****ed up conversation with an attractive girl at work but with a high opinion of herself when i told her she was a 6 that thinks shes a 9.

If I'm being completely honest with myself, my primary motivation for moving to New York was to find a better quality of women. But then I wasn't exactly getting terrific luck in London, before that gets taken the wrong way. British accent (and height, oddly) go a long way over here!

 

Girls over here do generally make a good deal of effort on their appearance, both due to societal pressure and because it's just what all their peers do (is that the same thing?). But then because the standard is pretty high girls don't get all up themselves for being attractive - it's just the norm. My experience has been that the girls who grew up in New York or from rich families in Connecticut/New Jersey etc can be a bit messed up with it all - mental issues, neurotic, eating disorders etc - but the girls who grew up in smaller towns/MidWest etc are pretty normal and grounded and you can have a good laugh with them. I guess that's a similar phenomenon to what you guys are saying about girls from oop North / outside of London.

 

I've also heard attractive women over here complaining it's just hard to meet decent guys over here as there are so many women / gays in Manhattan and the rest are already married. It makes dating for very average looking blokes like me way easier, if you just put in a tiny bit of effort.

 

 

I appreciate this is all generalisations of a very big country, just my take on things.

[pap]

I've spent some time in Spain. Had a Spanish girlfriend - gorgeous, naturally. But yep, noticed that phenomenon in older ladies too.

 

Got a theory about that. Back in '94, I was stunned at the amount of people my age or thereabouts that were smokers. Many people who take up the habit think better of it in later life, only to find to their weight ballooning because they've got more of an appetite and less of a metabolism.

 

Course, some don't stop at all - which also takes its toll on the ol' aesthetic loveliness.

Deano6, do you want to swap lives for a bit? You come over here and raise my kids. I'll go over there and entertain lovely NY ladies.

Yeah I'm feeling that, I see this one dude at work who's always trying it on with the secretaries by giving them genuine compliments like "You're hair looks wonderful, Alice" and banging on about their clothes or whatever, but behind his back the girls is all saying what a creepy slimeball he is. I on the other hand is mostly calling them fat and am extremely popular! Go figure.

Schoolboy error. It's a constant battle between the sexes! Compliments? Pah.

 

I know loads of blokes who kept an even keel for years, eventually let down their barriers and were sh4t on immediately afterward. It'll never happen to me

[Bearsy]

Yeah my dad said to me "If you ever feel like complimenting a woman, do it with actions not words."

 

Took me a little while to figure out what he was coming from exactly, I mean on the face of it that sounds a bit rapey. But whatever. Girls know I find them attractive when I put my knob in. I don't need to be telling them the whole time.

Venice is Italy's Grimsby

[dronskisaint]

I'd love to see a poll from the girls in your office...who they think is fit , who they think thinks that they are fit and who is most in love with himself...

 

Actually I'd like to see that from my own office!

Lots of people say that, but we had a 14 hour stopover in Venice last summer and there was no sign of bad smell.

 

Nice place, though shockingly expensive. €90 for a trip around part of the city on a gondolier, €14 a pint. Nice sights though.

[Orange]

I'm in Provence (France) at the moment and the birds are far more attractive, i suppose a lot of it is because its just different to what your used to.

 

On the other hand stuck up Parisian girls..

 

I'd say problem with a lot of girls down south in England is how two faced they can be.
