Wow. You make me look so picky. :)
My "application for dating Sarah" resembles the SAT sometimes. Looks,
however, rate Very Low compared to intelligence, wit, and passion for the
arts. The men I've dated barely resemble each other.
I do have a preference for long dark hair and wire-rimmed or "fifties"
glasses, but it's not really a requirement. I just notice them first. :)
(I wonder if it's because guys who look like that tend to have the same
interests as me...hmm...)

First to be on topic, let me say that over the years my tastes in regards to
the ladies have changed, in sync with my lessening sex drive:
17-19> Does she have breasts of some sort and genitals opposite of mine?
SOLD!
19-21> Alrighty, is she able to have a conversation, share a couple of
interests, meet criteria one, and not outweigh me by more then 25%? SOLD!
21-Present> All of the above, some interests in the arts, an interesting mind,
and a bit wacky. But physically, any and all, especially if the combination
of looks is a bit unusual, I like distinctive features and builds.
But...and I say this with all regard, should I enter the singles market again
may my testicles fall off and I never date again if I go out with a woman who
in our early conversations spends more then 50% of the time discussing the
complex interrelationships between her and her friends, complete with names,
dates, and exact text. I actually have a fairly decent recall for
conversations, I don't want to retain that in six months.
The Friend Zone> Ah, actually one of my favorite places to be, overall I found
personally women more fascinating to talk to then men, not to say it is
exclusionary but I'm a fussy lad who likes a wide array of interests not
shared by many of the gentleman I met in school. ("Did you see the game last
night?" "No, but I imagine muscled guys slammed into each other with their
normal disregard for safety. Did our valiant warriors vanquish the evil foe
of the week?") But anyway, one of the nicest things I find is to learn about
a person, what they do, think, believe, and hold dear. (Which is not in
contrast to the above comments on interrelationship chats, they can be
interesting but if your *entire* focus is on them, get a hobby.)
But Greg, regarding your above rants, I feel your pain, very fully. "Ed, I
really like being able to talk with you, and I'm just not sure what to do
about my boyfriend." *Nice comments on status of relationship, after some
thoughtful questions* "Good point, why can't he talk like that, your so
sweet." Sweet = hey, your a nice guy, but I'd rather have intimate relations
with my kitchen appliances, including the ginsu knives, before going at it
with you monkey boy.

Remember, one thing women do when they're faced with a difficult
situation is distort the truth in a way that the'll claim is to spare the
other party's feelings, but also, coincidentally, spares them the difficulty
of telling a hard truth.
"Sweet" translates to "polite, but boring", unfortunately.

Good point Sir Jazz, although let me say that if I am being shown the
metaphoric door, I much prefer to get a more accurate phrase, "You are one
odd/weird/freaky guy." At least then I get to leave with a bow and smile.

... well then you might as well give up on women. If they're walking
out, they'll say anything to avoid anything they think might hurt you more,
even if it's useful and true.

Give up on women? Never sir, never. To give up the soft and lovely gender
of the two, I'd rather give up my legs.

women are terribly complex, maybe... but there's due process of thought to
be given to a person who is wacky. i myself am attracted not just to wacky
women (my beloved yuki is living red-haired proof of this) but to wacky people
in general. they seem more interesting because they're more open-minded
usually, and that, at the very least, gives for good conversation, or a stint
of running through the mall in a napolean outfit yelling "to waterloo! and
feed the horses!"
anyhow, to answer myself to the original topic, i used to think that i liked
women with short black hair, a slightly petite build, cat-eyed or go-go fifty
glasses (i think lisa loeb is terribly terribly hot.), and a spirited laugh,
but yuki has shown me that i also like mid-length reddish-brown curly haired
short women with wire-frames and a spirited laugh. really, though, it's all
about the person inside. A great master once said sex is one thousand times
as fulfilling when you truely love your partner with your complete soul.
but i digress, as i am new to these boards, and don't want to over-step my
newbie boundaries.

Seems that lots of conferences go almost completely dead, then a bit of
new life is breathed into them every so often.
I did a little backtracking in this item last night, because I have
confused emotions regarding a woman I like. Even so, I'll go with what
happens, if anything.

That was a vague reference to the translation of "sweet" in female-
ese. Granted, it was an action she said was "sweet", not me directly.

*grumbles about how ALL music is emotional and makes "emo" a silly term to
use then walks off*
I prefer "whiny, suckass music". :)

Emo concerts.
Emo is short for "emotional punk". "Emotional" has several different
meanings, but if you assume it means "overly sentimental" the term kinda
fits.

As I understand it, the term "emo" came about when punk started dividing into
"hardcore" and "not hardcore". That makes sense, but I still think it's
whiny, suckass music. :)

The more I think about it, the more I think punk is a state of mind
rather than a state of expression.
