Anyway, here it is:
How can it be that nearly every AW that's decent looking and not ugly is taken (or claims to be), yet at the same time, they are unapproachable and unfriendly to men? I mean, if men can't approach them or hit on them or seduce them, or even talk to them in most cases, how do they all get "taken" as they claim?
Who are the guys that have "taken" them and how did they get them? How are these guys any different or better than us? What do they do that's different? How do their boyfriends/husbands get them if they aren't approachable?
See what I mean? It's sort of a paradox, on the surface at least.
Here is my explanation for the paradox:
1. As OTB explained in his other threads, our problem isn't our looks, since if you look around you, you will see regular average Joes with AW. Our problem is that we are NONCONFORMIST, and thus we don't fit into mainstream cliques in America.
We also think too much, which alienates us from the mainstream, because society is set up for people who follow a routine and do what they are supposed to without thinking too much. It's not set up for people who think too much. Thus, the dumber you are, the easier it will be to get along with others. So we don't get along with many people...
This contains all the elements of the perfect HA post:
1. Acknowledgement of failure.
2. Key to greater success is right there, but ignored.
3. Rationalization for failure included.
4. That rationalization (nonconformist free thinker) sets up the HA member as superior to those who succeed.
What is the key to success? Look at the bolded word. Winston, your problem in this area is that you can't handle the rejection which goes hand in hand with your appetite for women. You seem to think that the world owes you an endless stream of strange and attractive poon. It doesn't work that way.
