Up Front: The Up Front Guides:…, in reply to Emma Hart,
So, just to be clear, you're only open to listening to men's opinions about what women do?
Not at all. Perhaps if I had said "women seem to avoid you like the plague" it would have been clearer but I could equally say that I am open to listening to what women think men think but perhaps I don't fully understand what your question is saying.

Up Front: The Up Front Guides:…, in reply to B Jones,
Couldn't disagree more,
Ah but...
I did say "many men would agree..." so it is hardly surprising that you don't or do, as it were.
And I am sure that you could, possibly, disagree more.

Time for a wee rant.
I think it is appalling that the powers that be decided that Cars on Queen Street, which used to be a regular Friday night event, was deemed to be a bad thing.
It's almost like them saying "If we didn't organise it it is wrong"
I could say the same about the Occupy movement on Aotea Square, it is the best thing that has happened there since... well, ever and bugger the grass. Humph, grrrrr.

air of .. availability,
Now that is a term I have used for years but it only applies to women. For women I am sure it's the other way around.
I'm sure many men will agree that when you are "between relationships" women tend to avoid you like the plague, "There must be something wrong with that guy or he would be married or something". but when a guy is in a relationship women feel more free to engage.
Men tend to be attracted to women who are outside a relationship, possibly because there is less likelihood of them being challenged by an enraged spouse.
In the end it seems to come down to animalistic behaviour, we are driven by our DNA to reproduce along a line that is predetermined by nature.
But wait, there's more.
Romance may be driven by nature but there is something special about that attraction, that desire, that has to do with who we are as opposed to what we are and that something goes beyond sex and deeper into the spirit of being. It is a part of a universal conciousness that some would call God and, I guess, that is why they say God is love.
