Yes, you can find humor in almost everything. The POINT, however, is...A) women who are HEALTHY do NOT smell like fish and 2) making JOKES about women in such a way is INAPPROPRIATE. THAT is what I was trying to point out. For people to have turned it into a joke even when it was clearly intended not to be is not surprpisng, but is, nonetheless, disappointing; i.e., that a group of people -- who are NOT teenagers, mind you -- cannot have seem to have a an intelligent discussion without reducing it to potty humor. The fact that that did happen proved my point on more than one level.
Then you would think that you'd be respectful enough to take what was clearly intended to be an intelligent and informative discussion and not try to "destroy" the intent of my thread by further perpetuating the MYTH that women smell like fish by adding your "wanna go fishing" comment in it.
Especially since you're a woman, that makes it even worse. And if you want to be laughed at and compared to smelling like a fish, that's YOUR prerogative. I am well liked for my intelligence and sense of humor, thank you very much, but I don't have to reduce myself to being the brunt of offensive jokes in order to get a laugh out of people.
Your entire profile is in German. I was born in Massachusetts and left there when I was very young, but I don't recall people there saying, "Pahken ze cah in Hahvadzen yahd."
Ummm....where else does a guy learn disrespect for women like that? It's not taught in school, is it? Did your parents teach you to disrespect women in such a manner? I think not. Most people learn such disprectful behavior from their peers, "on the street," in locker rooms, what have you.
And I'm not in a "pissy mood" at all. I'm having a blast.
What gives me the right? LOL ...what precludes me from the right?
I'm pretty sure you know that tuna is fish, don't you? LOL. You're referring to canned "PEOPLE" tuna...and my cats like it, too. But, like you stated, they hate canned "CAT" tuna, or other canned fish food for cats.
Why should I? I posted the therad in order to educate, not to provoke. Not my fault people get offended over the fact that I don't think women should be insulted by being considered to smell like fish.
For the record, I have raised cats all my life and the truth is most of them don't like fish. They usually prefer anything but fish. My cats, anyway. But why you brought that up I don't know, because I never said a thing about cats not liking fish.
The joke had nothing to do with this thread, other than that part of it reminded me how women are often compared to smelling like fish. I brought this up in an effort to educate the otherwise uneducated person, who thinks that it's natural for a woman to smell that way. It isn't.
Oh, well, they may very well pull this thread too. But it is of an informative nature, and I did put Rated R in the subject line. So, who knows? If they do, they do.
It's like I said, if a woman has a fishy odor, it's because she has a bacterial infection or an upst PH balance. You might want to do some research on it, so you can become more informed about the subject.
Yeah that's just what we need...comments like this from females to perpetuate the disgusting analogy that we women typically give off a foul, fishy odor...
See, this is what I'm talking about. Imbeciles who make jokes about the female anatomy...sigh...
I know I sure as hell don't smell like fish. I can't speak for any other women, but women who keep themselves clean and are healthy most certaily do not.
That's what's so great about the niacinamide! It makes you feel naturally sleepy, you sleep longer and better than before and you wake up feeling normal. And it's not a drug; it's a B3 derivative. I asked the doc if he could recommend something for stress and anxiety and I told him that I wanted to avoid any type of narcotic, if I could. So he recommend the niacimamide. This was a doctor in Arizona I saw, while I was out there. I don't even take it every night, just on particularly restless nights. So the good thing is, it doesn't even have to build up in your system in order for it to take effect. And it's not addictive, either. You just have to make sure and not take too much of it, just like anything else.
I mow my own yard. Weedeat steep hills, use the tiller, lift heavy bags of top soil, am building my own patio, do light carpentry, electrical stuff, and can work on my car, if I had to. Does that make me "masculine?" No, it does not.
I also like to cook and I like taking long baths with scented bath oils and taking care of my skin and using makeup. And I don't do manicures, but I hate getting dirt underneath my nails, so I always wear work gloves when I'm gardening or whatever. Plus, since I use my hands to earn my living, I have to protect them.
When you are single, you do what you gotta do. You know?
My poor back would sure appreciate having a strong man around, though.
I pet a stingray once! They feel like squishy velvet. That was at an aquarium, though. Thinking about the Steve Irwin tragedy, now I wonder if they removed their barbs before they let the public touch them. I would think so, wouldn't you?
A lesson in female anatomy (Rated R)
Gawwwwwwwwwwddd...see?? This is what you're failing to understand!!!We shouldn't make fun of men with bald heads; this much is true. (I don't).
But the fact is, some men are bald and can't do much, if anything, about it.
But a woman does not NORMALLY smell like a fish. If she has a bacterial infection, she can get antibiotics for it. See the difference???
