A while back I wrote a post that offered up the existence of a game called Would You Fuck It. This is an actual phenomenon. It exists because men are predators, sex predators. No one should take it personally. The skinniest, shyest, most "sensitive" guy and the meanest, ugliest, most aggressively heterosexual guy (like me) does the exact same thing when they see a girl for the first time. We see an ass or a set of cans and it is like a light switch. There is no middle ground. Granted, after time a person we get to know may change in our consideration. An average looking broad with a sense of humor, good personality, or the ability to make a backhand grab and strong throw to first will become more attractive in our estimation. A nice looking girl with long legs and big tits may look like a pile of steaming shit if it turns out she is a bitch. Regardless, at first contact, we are all the same.
In a class today, there was a discussion about how the President's wives have developed into the office of the First Lady, why, and what about it. The predominating feature of the office is that First Ladies are almost exclusively evaluated by their fashion sense. It is true and unfortunate. The why and wherefores are debatable and people had many opinions. Regardless of whether or not she had issues to platform  or was old or young, First Ladies are evaluated by their wardrobe. One of the many reasons why is because, on instinct, people want to know what a man sees in the woman. If she dresses well, the answer is obvious, he answered "Yes" to the question of "Would you fuck it?". If people think he answered "yes" because she dresses well then they have a certain level of understanding and they won't get hung up on the "why?". Ergo, if a First Lady dresses well then people aren't made uneasy by the dynamics of their relationship. If a First Lady is old but still dresses well, people think, "Well, she might have been alright when she was younger." If a First Lady is not that much of a looker but she dresses well, people think, "Well, she isn't much to look at but she keeps herself put together and maybe he knows something I don't." This is why fashion is such a big deal in the world. When men ask themselves the question, if a woman can dress she can get a more favorable answer than she would otherwise. It is about first impressions, and men always think of ass first. This is simple logic, and whether you like it or not, IT IS A FACT.
I offered this up to the class, of which I am the oldest person by about 9 years. Of course, the men chuckled, but because it was funny but because they knew it was true. Most of the chicks did not like to hear it, and offered me ugly looks or gasps of reproach or short statements of mock offense. They did not, however, offer up reasonable contestation. Why? Because they knew it was true. Look, a lot of people don't like me and a lot of people don't want to listen to what I have to say about things. Fuck em. The reality is that I, in a very careful series of choices and mistakes, have gathered a reasonable volume of experience. Due to the weight of my personality and a reasoned belief in my observational skill I am willing to communicate the veritas that I have seen. I have a fairly good completion percentage and just because you don't want to hear it does not make something wrong. Men and women in a relationship are in a sexual relationship. Men are predators. Men who are not aggressively male are male nonetheless and will attempt to acquire females through subversion or trickery. Women say, "he is really nice and sweetand he is sooo sensitive." Yeah yeah, he might be those things but he is just being those things on the off chance you might let him do something uncomfortable to your body. Regardless, people might not have liked to hear what I said or the way I said it, but no one was waiting in the hallway to give me a piece of their mind because I was right enough that they didn't care to oppose it. Women that think they aren't chicks make me laugh and shake my head. Who or what do you think you are?
 Something else I like to hate is sports media like ESPN and SI.com. These companies have enormous resources and personnel and yet they just serve up shit time after time. They want to report on things that aren't the sport. The recent Sammy Sosa shit is a great example. Just crap no one wants to talk about. ESPN could give Ron Jaws a daily show where he sits down with game film and shows people how to watch football intelligently. He could have guests on, players and coaches, and ask about their mindset and decision making over the course of games and it could be really interesting for fans. They could show day baseball games. If they could not get rights for those they could show other sports that aren't commonly televised like soccer, volleyball, or a host of other Olympic sports. Instead, they play SportCenter for three consecutive hours, an hour of poker, and another three hours of the same SportsCenter. Their internet affiliates are the same. I read an interview with Darren McFadden, Raider tailback, on SI. For brevity, I will insert the text.
SI:What's the gadget you can't live without when you travel?
Darren McFadden:I?m probably one of the few people who only takes the things that you need for an overnight trip; maybe an iPod.
SI:What's one thing you'd change about hotels?
Darren McFadden:I feel like the team takes pretty good care of us when it comes to picking a nice hotel and having what we need.
SI:What's one tip you can share with people who travel a lot?
Darren McFadden:Always double check your bag before you go, make sure you?ve got everything you need.
SI:Do you care where on a plane you sit?
Darren McFadden:I don?t usually care, but if it?s a long flight, I wouldn?t mind a row all to myself.
SI:What's your favorite city to visit?
Darren McFadden:I don?t have one -- we don?t get to see too much of a city on road trips.
SI:What's your least-favorite city to visit?
Darren McFadden:I don?t really have a least-favorite city.
SI:What's your least-favorite sports venue to visit as a fan or player?
Darren McFadden:I don?t have one. As a player, I feel blessed to be playing in any arena.
SI:What's your favorite place to eat on the road?
Darren McFadden:It depends on where we are. A lot of cities aren?t known for their food, but if I can find good Southern food, then I?m happy.
SI:What's your craziest/best travel story?
Darren McFadden:I can?t think of anything crazy that?s happened.
SI:Which city has the most passive fans?
Darren McFadden:Everywhere I?ve gone has been loud so far.
SI:Which city has the best-looking women?
Darren McFadden:It?s a toss-up between Tampa and Miami
I understand what the impetus for this interview was. It was a fishing trip. They just wanted a little McFadden content for the California market and this was a cheap and easy way to get it. He says ABSOLUTELY NOTHING. He expounds on nothing. There is absolutely nothing in this and yet they published it. Sure, it is just one more piece of content to cram into an otherwise overcrowded, fluffed up website, but I think this is bad enough that it does more to support my argument than help any of their desires. This piece just sucked.

I refuse to believe the women in your class were actually annoyed by your observation. Trust me, women play the same game - we know if we would f*#k it within 3 seconds of meeting a guy - we just tend to pretty it up and call that 'chemistry.'
