Male Grooming

[ハイイロギツネ]

Men, you won't get anywhere with women unless you start grooming.

That means getting your haircut at the Turkish barbers to get your hair trimmed and shaving your body hair.

Make sure you hit the gym and get a nice suit too.

I see so many guys on here complaining but if you want to meet a girl, you have to show some effort!

If you ask me it's kinda overrated tbh. Sure it can be pretty good but the hype is insane.

Casual flings and hookups are overrated, yeah.
With a steady FWB or an LTR it's much better imho

It all depends. Could be good, could become a disaster. What I was thinking of was more like HOW people have sex. I haven't asked them but I imagine it to be sort of clumsy and/or porn-like. That is not the good sex, in fact most people haven't a clue about the good sex.

[c Z p]

and besides, this is too naive.
Suits? You could date the perfect girl while being dressed like you used to in high school, np.
If you're the right kind of person.
Suits are just for rare occasions with dress code.
I mean, whatever. If suits are your thing, go for it. But wearing suits & being perfectly shaved doesn't guarantee a successful date.

You really don't see what is wrong with this? I'm sure you can do better, at least I hope you do. Try.

What do you mean? Are you going to get a time travel machine and date women in the 1800s?

Why are you (= woke/left) always ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ with language like this? If you mean to say ANY woman, then you should not use terms like "modern". Nobody needs you to point out that people who are long dead do not count. Well, almost nobody.

You have had several reactions to your usage of this term, so you must be aware of this, even when your initial usage of it would be completely innocent, which it is of course not.

And what is your solution? You play with semantics to suddenly make it mean "any woman". You are a trickster, like the woke so often are. Why does your definition of a "good person" not include being honest? Don't you think that's a bit... totally impossible?

I'm not trying to pull any tricks.

I'm wondering what your definition of a modern woman is.

One that can drive, work, vote, and have independence? And are modern women not honest?

I can believe that actually. But that means you are doing it unconsciously, or, you are being unconscious. While it can be said that therefore you are less responsible for it, it remains a problem all the same. Maybe even more because it means pointing it out to you doesn't work, the conversation will stall or derail and all that's left for me to do is wait until you have grown.

I don't think I have a definition of it, maybe I don't agree with the concept at all. I associate it with woke which is never good. Aren't you supposed to shun stereotypes? But here you are with "the modern woman".

What I want to ask you is, why did you bring that up in the first place? "Modern" does not mean "currently alive". I'm sure just about everyone understands this. Rather, it points to a specific set of characteristics. If you do not intend to do that, then you have absolutely no reason to reach for these terms.

What is woke but a vague populist buzzword? Woke is a subjective term as is modern.

I'm sure civil rights were once woke in the early 1900s but now they're written in law.

Yeah nah. You are overthinking it.

t. Had several opportunities with women that didn't cared about my chest hair even the ones on my "nilly willy".

What is "What is woke but a vague populist buzzword" except one of the many tricks they like to use to simply dismiss everything they don't like?

Why don't you answer my question instead of giving me this BS which I am completely fed up with? I answered yours, didn't I?

It's a fact that a woman will go for the well dressed and in shape guy instead of the fat slob with a stained T shirt living in his momma's basement

The "magic word" here is effort -- even a "fat slob" can pick up women with a bit of decency.

People nowadays not only think their opinions and beliefs are facts, they don't even understand what a fact even is in the first place. While at the same trying to sound as scientific as possible when they believe that The Science (TM) supports their beliefs.

It's just... I have no words.

I don't think I'm actually going to say any more about your "claim". Yes that needs quotes. Come on, say it, I didn't provide a counterargument so that surely must mean that you are the best debater ever and you are totally right about everything.

What are you talking about? This is more or less what the word modern has always meant:

MO'DERN. n.s. [moderne, French; from modernus, low Latin; supposed a casual corruption of hodiernus. Vel potius ab adverbio modò, modernus, ut a die diurnus. ‡ Ains. ]

1. Late; recent; not ancient; not antique.

—A Dictionary of the English Language bySamuel Jonson (1755)[johnsonsdictionaryonline.com]

MOD'ERN, adjective [Latin modo, and ern, which we find in other Latin words that have reference to time, as in hodiernus, hesternus.]

1. Pertaining to the present time, or time not long past; late; recent; not ancient or remote in past time; as modern days, ages or time; modern authors; modern fashions; modern taste; modern practice.

— An American Dictionary of the English Languag by Noah Webste (1829)[webstersdictionary1828.com]

Johnson provided an example of usage by Francis Bacon. There's a whole book called Modern man and His Forerunners: A Short Study of the Human Species Living and Extinct[www.google.com], written in 1917.

Simply put, the word has been used to juxtapose against the current general state of affairs and the distant past since before we have been born, and the point is likely to highlight that something about said state of affairs changed since the distant past.

Do you have modern confused with urbane[webstersdictionary1828.com], meaning "Civil; courteous in manners; polite" per Webster?
