Call me a kill-joy, but even though his comments sound nice, I'd have to wonder if they're coming from a spirit of genuine kindness or creepy fetishism.

it's okay - i've been being misunderstood and eyed with suspicion by most Women for the better (or rather, the longer) part of 42 years. i hold many unconventional points of view (many of which pertain to Women) and often express my views with great passion, and that's not a combination calculated to set culturally-indoctrinated Feminine minds at ease.
the truth of me is complex, but to try to put concisely those parts that influenced my post here: my tastes in the physical Woman are different from, and in some cases precisely the opposite of, those espoused by the common man and broadcast incessantly throughout our culture (and accepted by most Women) as being the one and only physical ideal, and it frustrates the &$#~?! out of me to see Women buying this line of B.S. (which is invariably linked directly to this and that line of products) hook, line and sinker and running around knocking themselves out, starving themselves, having cosmetic surgery, and otherwise &$#~?!ing with their bodies and minds in their efforts to rid themselves of physical characteristics i love and find incredibly sexy. Women spend huge amounts of time and effort and money trying to achieve flat bellies. well guess what: i don't find a flat belly anywhere near as attractive as one that isn't. and i was never so aware of this fact as i became when i started seeing beautiful, fit young Women walking around downtown with their fat little bellies sticking out between the bottoms of their short shirts and the tops of their low-rise jeans -
without being all self-conscious and self-deprecatory about it, but rather very confident and secure in their sexiness. these Women were
owning their sexiness - and a Woman's sexiness is a huge part of Her power - and i found that, and find it, more refreshing than i can easily express.
Women spend thousands of dollars - millions, collectively, i'm sure - to damage their bodies with cosmetic surgery in their efforts to make themselves appear to have huge, spherical, thoroughly unnatural-looking breasts. well guess what: nothing takes my breath away in that department like the sight of a perfectly flat-chested Woman in some form-fitting top. my knees go weak. i want to fall down and worship at Her body. yeah, i know, You think it sounds superficial, but we're talking about physical characteristics here - and our attraction to Your physical characteristics is one of the holds You have on us, and one for which You
should be grateful. it's an aspect of Feminine power. but, like many powerful and attractive physical characteristics, You're conditioned to view it with disdain by men who fear Your power over them and want You to turn away from it, rather than toward it.
oh jeez...i told You it's complex. okay...to simplify:
- You have it drilled into Your heads that the only sexy belly is a flat belly. i feel the opposite. so Your buying that line is frustrating to me.
- You have it drilled into Your heads that the only sexy breasts are large breasts (partly because men who feel otherwise tend to have too much discretion to belch out their views on the matter on prime-time television). i feel the opposite. so Your buying that line is frustrating to me.
- big butts? "unsightly" panty lines? same thing. a small butt is a MASCULINE trait. why the hell would a straight man want to look at that?? panty lines call attention to the Feminine shape (and lack of masculine smallness) of Your butt. they're viciously sexy. who tells You they're not? people selling girdles that make Your ass look like it's made out of hard plastic - like it's NOT HUMAN. no industry is going to tell You that You look hot as You are, because You do that naturally - without the aid of any aftermarket product. You don't have to
buy anything to look natural...so there are vast industries whose survivals depend on convincing You that Nature and beauty are mutually exclusive; that beauty must be bought.
oh boy. this is all disjointed and i'm sure i'm not done but it's now quarter to seven in the morning and i have to sleep. i just hope some smart Woman can decipher what i've said here and see it as i mean it rather than however it may sound. what i'm saying is not much different from what Divina99 is saying...i'm just saying it from a different (and male, and thus often sexually-charged) perspective, and that tends to freak Women out (sorry, Mesdames, but that's what it is to be male - we're slaves to our sexual desires...which means we're slaves to YOU, which is precisely what all the aforementioned industries and our culture on the whole are striving to prevent You from realizing).
argh. must sleep. somebody just open Your mind and *think* about all this, please? the world would be a much different, and i believe a much better and healthier, place if Women would just understand and assume their rightful place in it. the patriarchal establishment has a vested interest in Your *not* doing this, so it will be an uphill battle for a long time yet...but Your winning could save the Earth before those who currently have the greatest influence kill it altogether.
oh yes, i should have shut up a while back. goodnight.
