Your taken aback by this why? Urza Send a noteboard - 24/03/2011 06:30:46 AM
That is... very sweet. Like, thoughtful and considerate. I'm rather taken aback.

The sort of altruism your argument is premised on is deeply flawed.

You would be so much more beautiful if you would use that sort of thinking to live your life from a perspective of enlightened self interest.

By thinking in this manner you do the man a great dis-service. You do yourself a great dis-service also.

Can you edit your post and take out the cow analogies? Thanks. *NM* Vivien - 23/03/2011 03:31:51 PM 581 Views

It's true that after a certain age, average men have an easier time finding dates Helene - 24/03/2011 01:31:35 PM 1045 Views

I don't date either... :-) Helene - 24/03/2011 03:42:33 PM 1280 Views
I think you're doing him a disservice. nossy - 23/03/2011 02:16:59 PM 1172 Views
This. Plus, to try to frame it more in A's terms... Sareitha Sedai - 23/03/2011 03:05:55 PM 1096 Views
It can add extra complications that negatively impact the likelihood of a successful relationship Helene - 23/03/2011 02:50:39 PM 1108 Views

If you have a lot in common with him and like him and are attracted to him Helene - 24/03/2011 09:41:01 AM 1018 Views
I think you should date him. Palatine - 23/03/2011 03:02:56 PM 1027 Views
I think you should date this guy if you like him. Morgawse - 23/03/2011 03:07:30 PM 1067 Views

LOL. ( Yes I really did laugh out loud) *NM* Vivien - 24/03/2011 03:55:22 AM 563 Views
Most of the other responses are ignoring your reasons. Vivien - 23/03/2011 03:34:56 PM 1037 Views
No one should try to think from "the perspective of black women", not even 1 black woman can do that Helene - 23/03/2011 03:47:34 PM 1090 Views

And it's a bit silly to determine for someone else who he should be dating *NM* Helene - 24/03/2011 09:33:09 AM 535 Views
This has to be one of the stupidest reasons for not dating someone I've ever heard. Tom - 23/03/2011 03:54:15 PM 1082 Views
Your opinion: less than nothing. Vivien - 23/03/2011 04:10:24 PM 1188 Views
Who are you? Dark Knight - 23/03/2011 08:37:43 PM 1221 Views
It's extremely unlikely that Tom was offended. Vivien - 23/03/2011 09:04:42 PM 1101 Views

Thank you. *NM* Vivien - 24/03/2011 04:01:08 AM 574 Views
I'm not offended, only amused at your poor logic. Tom - 23/03/2011 09:24:05 PM 1138 Views
That's lawyer logic! Vivien - 24/03/2011 03:50:37 AM 1074 Views
Is there any other kind? *NM* Tom - 24/03/2011 02:05:27 PM 571 Views

Shrug. She likes *me*. Plus, Jewish guys love Asian girls, well-known fact. beetnemesis - 24/03/2011 04:46:56 AM 1070 Views
So it's not her choice who she wants to date, but everyone around her?? Helene - 24/03/2011 09:39:58 AM 1083 Views

You're absolutely right. Aeryn - 24/03/2011 04:14:49 AM 1108 Views
Then your argument is even sillier, as mixed race is too white Helene - 24/03/2011 09:50:15 AM 985 Views
Is he "identifying as" black in a cultural context as well? Tom - 24/03/2011 02:04:43 PM 967 Views

Huh Aeryn - 25/03/2011 11:15:58 AM 1081 Views
