Hahaha...no. That's not me being a idealistic feminist, we are just not as inclined to romance as the fairer sex is. We're making progress, but we've got a way to go.

Considering the number of hot girls I know who chose to be with a seriously overweight dude because they loved his personality... no. No, I don't think women are more shallow than men. I think everyone, both men and women, wants to be with someone they're attracted to, and I think everyone wants to be with someone they can talk to.

More shallow? No. Less shallow? No. The truth is there is no general rating for such things. Sometimes you just have to take people as they come.

I see more good looking dudes with less attractive women than good looking women with less attractive dudes.

All men are pigs all women are insane. It's in our DNA. Men's reproductive overdrive wants to sniff it and hit it. Women desire a strong male (strong not neccesarily "strength") with an ability to provide. It's not sexist it's nature.

More importantly, do women want a New Nation more than men do?

I wish somebody would snapshot this board now, because the Sinead O'Connor thread being directly below this one is priceless...

What I've noticed is that the women that I've interacted with have been really preoccupied on looks moreso than the guys I'm around. A girl can go out in sweatpants with her hair unkempt, and guys will still try to hook up with her.. lol
But it's like females are wrapped up in looks in part because they think that dolling themselves up make them beautiful and in part as a competition. I've heard some chicks say some pretty harsh things about other girls, and I mean some straight cutthroat stuff.
It's not that serious. To be honest, ladies are only getting dressed up for other ladies, and dudes usually get all dressed up to attract women. If we're going on shallowness based on looks, I give the edge to women.

I think the big difference in shallowness between men and women is that men are more open about it, women don't like to admit they are or even admit they have the capability to be. A man can be upfront about what he likes but a woman says "Oh, looks don't matter. I just want someone smart and nice and blah blah blah" and when someone comes along that fits their supposed criteria, they still turn them down. That's worse to me. If you're going to be superficial, at least be honest about it so I know to avoid you. This and the post above me is pretty spot on as well. Males and Females are pretty much equally shallow just in different ways. I have heard girls at work tell other girls they need to date guys with money, and then give me crap for checking out a hot girl. That is just as shallow in my opinion, but they wouldn't admit it. Also I have noticed the thing with women and clothes, and many will actually admit it. Dressing well is more important that anything for alot of them. I think it's about perception, dressing nice gives them the idea you care and are successful. I also think that is pretty shallow. IMO judging a person based on how they dress is about as shallow as it gets. But guys can be pretty shallow about how girls look and judging each other based on how many girls we can get in bed. The big difference is guys have the stereotype of being shallow pigs, while women have the stereotype of being emotional and above that sort of nonsense. So it makes sense that it bugs most of the guys here.

Here, I'll settle it: All men are shallow, egotistical pigs who are only concerned with sex, booze, sports, and scratching themselves in public, who want to hook up with a lot of women so they can go crowing about it to their buddies at the bar, and who have no regard whatsoever for womens' collective emotional well being. All women are shrill harpies who only date men with money so that they can divorce them later for half of what they've got, only care about their collection of shoes, and who sink their talons into unwitting men and drive the will to live from them. All stereotypes are obviously true, and anecdotal evidence is all one needs to settle and decide all matters of sociological importance. In short, concerning this thread,

I think what it comes down to is that everyone wants the ideal mate for themselves based on what they think that ideal mate is and really, why shouldn't we? We're told that it matters on the inside, not the outside in life, so everyone thinks they have a shot with everyone regardless of a bogus rating system or someone being out of your league. Every human being on Earth is flawed, it's being able to overlook those flaws and celebrate the strengths that make any relationship worth having.
Basically what I'm getting at is that it's human nature to crave certain traits in mates and we aren't any different than any group of primates who have come before us. It's the way it's been forever and it will never change. As long as you're happy who cares what anyone else thinks.
