U+ur Hand

[Gillette]

It's about time somebody said it.

Pink has always had strong minded messages in her songs, but with this song she has become one of my heroines.

I've put this in Womans Issues because I know I'm not the only one who has had to put up with unwanted attention.

As much as we love you men, we will only make love with the ones of our choosing and can do without the lip-curl inspiring lines like, "My wife and I have three grown kids but seeing you bend over like that makes me want to start all over again".

Ladies, please feel free to share your stories of tactless "compliments".

Gentlemen, I'm sure many of you have experienced the same, please share.

Whereas men will generally 'make love' to any female who'll let them...

Which in turn readdresses an argument held on another thread...

Back in the day, if a woman showed interest, I was on it. If she was so unattractive as to be embarrassing, we'd just have to meet up surreptitiously.

Am I proud of it? Not really. It's just what it was.

My apologies if it came across that way.

My ire is directed only at those who think that we are going to fall all over ourselves with appreciation just because they've deigned to grace us with their attention.

Catchy tune, I've always enjoyed Pink's music, but I will assure you, that it doesn't always turn out the way of a woman's choosing. I'm very selective that way and I can't be the only one, as I've seen some very miserable female drunks parading around under the guise of having fun. My hand is probably more preferable than having to deal with the hangover of "drunk, stupid beotch". If only some people (men and women alike) would realize how unattractive they are when they are innebriated like that.

That's why I asked men to share as well.

What I'm hoping for here is a collection of the most horrific come-ons we've ever heard.

I'll share one, at a company happy hour, I was stalked by a "cougar", who had way too much to drink. We all met up over at her house, drove to the bar a few blocks away and she didn't drive. I still suspect I was set up, but by the end of the happy hour, she was plastered and everyone else pretty much left and a couple of co-workers asked me if it wouldn't be an imposition to drop her off at her house. Being young, single and stupid, I accepted. She was too drunk to make it to the door and being a co-worker, I did the politically correct thing and walked her to the door. She gave me the keys and I unlocked the door, when I turned around, that's when I saw her, eyes closed, lips puckered, arms extending to lay one on me. Good thing I was sober, as she leaned in for the kill, I ducked under and by her, she nearly fell down but thank God I got away. She propped herself up at the doorway and with the door still wide open I threw the keys into the place and left. After that the old handbag tried to make my life miserable at work, because I didn't give her any action.

Yeah, plowed and smoked a carton is a horrific come-on.

I don't get how that works for attraction, other than reduces inhibitions all around.

A woman I worked with on a charity was blatantly overt (even pressing her breasts into my back to announce her presence when I was talking with other people). She was half a foot shorter than I and outweighed me by 30 lbs, minimum, so the term "morbidly obese" was not only techically accurate, it was appropriate.

She had my e-mail address and pestered me for almost 11 months before giving up (and she didn't do that gracefully).

I like the song the beat...nice.

Nice compliments its ok, we heard them all but unwanted atentions from drunk, peacocks, married men players and etc is just unwanted like she sings: back off and bye bye.

I do have issues with drunk druged people behaviors and i'm repel by scenes that will have chances that I even see them, imagine meet and talk while they are under the influence...

Anyways I a morning person like the beaches, outdoors and etc.

As for the lyrical content, no compliment nor comment can be tactless if spoken with truth (this is how I few ones sent my way at least). A compliment no matter how its said is still a compliment, its just that they've not given time to it, to work out how best to put it, so that "we" don't think they are just some letcherous perv.

As for someone comparing the comment about choosing who we sleep with to another thread here, saying that yes, we choose who we sleep with where as men sleep with anything, well, lets stop that right now...

Men choose who to have sex with too ya know, you might walk into a bar and say "Yeah she'll do" but that is still a choice, your not going to walk into a bar, see someone you find quite repulsive and say she'll do, you'll spend some time in there, maybe 10mins, maybe 3 hours, but you'll still wait until someone you don't find repulsive comes along, women do the same, in fact if anything, we are less choosey in this circumstance because we are far more forgiving of flaws, you only have to look at the men in porn compared to the women to see that.

I agree, with you 100%, men choose to pursue what we pursue at the very least. There are a lot out there we have no chance with, some we do and if the conditions are right a hookup occurs. Both sides have settled and it's fun to be the Tommy Lasorda or whatever other baseball team manager you like and come up with your starting 9, even a batting order for every game. I look @ bars like MLB stadiums, I look over the talent, see what order they come in and start with the leadoff hitter and work my way thru the lineup. You never know from night to night who produces for you, all that matters is run production and pushing runs across home plate so to speak. The places I go, # 9 could be as good as #1 in the lineup, a veritable NY Yankees starting line up and bench depth with an all-star starting pitching rotation and bull pen to boot. As the game gets later in the evening, I may have to bench/sit one down. And even like the NY Yankees, I've lost some games, it's never a lock, just good fun. Even on the night's when I get shut out, it was fun to have been in the game. And I've had my share of no hitters too.
