Since when was Being a Man Unattractive?

[OneBig Man]

What happened to chivalry? During my whole childhood my dad taught me to be respectful to women. I would open doors for them, I wouldn't cuss in front of them, I would help them when they needed it. Hell the only fight I ever got into was beacuse I saw some dude hit a girl.

Yet after everything I do, I'm still left for the douchebag whose only goal is to get in her pants? I see it all the time. It is always some thug or some hippie/emo whatever who thinks he cool. I mean it seems that you have to spend over 20 minutes each day on your hair in order to get noticed anymore.

I wish I was born at least 2 generations ago.


EDIT:

Just to be clear, I don't assume every girl in the world should love me. All I am asking is why does it seem like girls like a-holes instead of decent people.

Those women are not worth your time if they don't appreciate chivalry, is all.

I feel you...

When those women correction girls reach there 30s they'll realize the mistake, and guys like me and you will be married with kids...

If you genuinely want a family, your life as a husband should be golden, barring unpredictable tragedies or your wife being a psycho ***** in disguise.

Still, that's better odds than most.

I'm glad I'm nonsexual, as I managed to stop caring when this kinda thing happens in my life.
I mean, I still know what others have to go through, and it annoys me.
I must have been put into the wrong time.
Still, I agree with Erana *Grins* Time to bug you on IRC

Chivalry, as the cliche says, is dead. Seriously.

 

[Good morning blues]

You're right. The problem is clearly with everyone else in the world except you.

 

[Kinguendo]

Well thats the first time I have seen Hippie and Emo in the same vein... confusing...

I feel sad for everyone where you grew up.

We still like to be respectful towards other here. You can't go around thinking life is going to always be like it is when you are in school with a bunch of other young and frankly mostly immature people.

 

[hittite]

There's a saying that I've found to be true. "Life's a b!%@#, and then you die". Maybe that's a cynical viewpoint, but meh, it works for me.

Anyway, same story here. But hey, cheer up. Nice guys may finish last, but we finish better.

Edit: there was absolutely no innuendo intended in that last sentence.

 

[siffty]

chivalry as most will say a is a dead art sady the only way to get anywhere is to be what most of us hate .im just glad that there are some (but so fue) that actualy for the one who is nice to them

I want to be a Cold War vet too...

OT: Most people are stupid. Find one that isn't. Or be like me, and care less. Its not worth the trouble.

 

[TriggerUnhappy]

Definitely this. I'm so sick of the "girls love assholes" stereotype, did ya ever stop to think that maybe they like them because they're confident? Or that maybe they're not assholes, but rather they just appear that way in your distorted view of the world?

Here's a tip: It's good to be nice to girls, but don't try to act like a complete gentlemen all the time, otherwise you'll be seen as nothing other than a friend. Rather, flirt and joke around a bit, so they see you as possible dating material than just a "sweet guy", and make your move.

 

[vodkainferno]

If they can't see you for the chivalrous dude you are, I say screw 'em (no innuendo).

 

[Soxafloppin]

You know, you can look good and still be a nice person?

You dont know these guys that your judging.

 

[zen5887]

Ya know how they say "nice guys finish last"?

Well, sometimes that's true. For some girls (like the ones you've been after apparently), its as much about the thrill of the chase as it is the catch. I would say that its not that girls don't like the Chivalry, its more they didn't find themselves challenged enough. I might be way off and I might not be making any sense, but that is what I make of the situation.

Also - Girls nowadays might simply be different to when your dad grew up. Perhaps they don't want someone to open the car door for them, hold their tongue around them and to do things for themselves.

But keep your chin up, one day you'll find a girl who is into all that and you'll get along fine.

Sidenote. These all are my speculation, coming from past experiences and the experiences of my friends. I don't want any girls to rage at me.


EDIT!!

I agree with this!

That is a good way to look at it, especially since this applys to me to...

 

[RatRace123]

Unfortunately, people don't like nice guys... they like jerks, or people who can straddle the line between nice and ass.

I think it's the natural response for females to seek the most physically intimidating specimen to use as a mate. Despite what we might think, we're still animals and we're still driven by these urges, even if we don't realize it.
That's why you're attempting to find a pretty (but ultimately shallow) girl, and not, say, the one with a mustache.

 

[001648]

im hearing ya mate...
but hey we have our morals, we do the right thing, cant give that up for anything!
i see all the arseholes of this world get what they want, by lying cheating, but they will get whats comming to em'
well we hope so anyway!!!!

 

[userwhoquitthesite]

Eh. Women are stupid. Guys are dicks. Eventually we'll all be dead, and it wont matter WHO beat whom, who fell in love forever, and who died lonely.
