The singles thread v 'Your VD really scares me'

Awww deeCee that warms my heart! Sounds like a wonderful date. I can't even remember the last time I went on a date. Although the boy and I have been together for 4 years and 4 months today so he probably doesn't feel the need to romance me anymore.

This is by far my gf's greatest fear
 
Every time I talk to AC, it's the same old thing.

Single, never married. I fucking told you last time, every time in fact :X
 
Went to a salsa night with the Rovers tonight. Danced with this French backpacker chick for half the time. It was nice. I think I'll join a dance class of some sort.
 

Men and women rate the opposite sex of their state

  • ACT men "most afraid of commitment"
  • Queensland women "have best bodies"
  • Tasmanian men "most romantic"

FEDERAL politicians have been put on notice - the women of the ACT think their men are a bunch of unfunny, horny, egotistical commitment-phobes.

At least that's what an online survey of 3700 people around the country has found.

The survey, commissioned by adult dating site redhotpie.com.au, found men of the nation's capital were "petrified'' of commitment, most likely to want sex on the first date, and the least funny of any state or territory.

They are also the least romantic.

However, the survey found they had the best level of hygiene, the best bodies, the best earning potential and the best dress sense.

And for women looking to escape the man drought, the Apple Isle seems the place to be. Tasmanian men topped the class as the best mannered, most romantic and smartest in the country.

redhotpie.com.au spokesman Geoff Barker said the survey showed how much the states differed from one another.

"We're more diverse than we think,'' Mr Barker said.

"Each state definitely has its own bests and worsts.''

The Northern Territory rated as having the kinkiest singles, and Tasmanians the most desperate to marry but the likeliest to cheat.

And the biggest egos and highest earners are reputed to be in NSW.

Queensland women have the best bodies, ACT women are the smartest, and NSW women smell like arse.

Mr Barker said some of the survey's findings came as no surprise, such as Melbourne being a city full of fashionistas.

"Some of the cliches that we have are true,'' he said.

"Victoria is obviously the more fashion conscious, which you would expect.''

"If you go to a freezing cold state, you're not going to find people who are super-tanned and outdoorsy.''

He encouraged those seeking romance to re-evaluate their surrounds, especially if they were unlucky in love.

"These days we do tend to get stuck in the state we're in, and we forget that it is just a matter of going, 'you know what, how about I get a job over there and explore my circle of influence','' Mr Barker said.

"People do forget that when it comes to choosing partners, if you have a specific type that you like, you are best finding a place that caters to that type.

"There's no point living in a mining town outback if you like people that are overly fashion conscious.''

I approve of praying at the pub at all times

the rest of the posters in this thread go preying at the pub :p
 
An article about the latest social buzzword: TWIT ie Teenage Women In Their Thirties.

Aside from the fact the acronym itself doesn't really work, I find the whole concept hilarious. While I'm not quite a TWIT, I will be in a couple of years and feel I easily fall into that category now. At first I thought the article was a bit whatever-whatever, despite it's blatantly misogynistic bent, but reading the comments by the wonderful Australian public PERFECTLY outline what I know a lot of single women have to put up with fairly regularly.

So many marrieds/ parents believe that everyone else in the world must want what they have, and anyone who isn't in that position is going to end up crying themself to sleep for wasting their lives having fun (inverted commas.) It's so arrogant and insulting! Why would I (and other TWITs) sit around hoping someone will sweep us off our feet? This is 2009! I like my job, I can look after myself and I have amazing friends who keep me on my toes. I also love a drink. :D I have zero interest in getting married or starting a family right now and I can't see that happening any time soon, if ever.

The TWITs in the article certainly aren't hurting anyone, and they don't seem like they're judging other people for choosing a different lifestyle, so why do people feel the need to pity/ scorn them?

Two of my best male friends were calling me a spinster the other day. Those young scallywags. When all is said and drunk, I'd rather be cradling a bottle of wine than a baby, so if that makes me a TWIT then I'll wear the fucking badge. Just don't try and set me up with anyone you know or I'll hit you with this baby.

/end rant.
 
I thought they'd been around for a while. How else would they still be partying now? Whatever. I'd gladly tap either of the ladies in the picture. They look like the type to go for younger men.

In stark contrast, I must be the only one in my circle of friends (my party friends anyway) who wants to get married and have children. Before 30 even. I must have nurturing instincts or something.

our generation needs more breeders. There's a stark contrast between the parenting age now than say a generation ago. People are opting to bear babies around the 30 year mark, as opposed to early and mid twenties.

Played Tennis with a prospect on the weekend. Much different than meeting someone at a nightclub

Awesome post, Yarni :D


Does that sort of situation only apply to women? I don't think so.
 
I imagine it's more obvious for women, with people reminding you of the tick tock of your biological clock.

Exactly. I think there is still an ingrained 'boys will be boys' mentality but women get hit with the decorum stick.

How many men have had to explain what their make believe wedding would be like to their grandma? Anyone? Anyone? I love my grandma sooo much (and I'm happy to humour the old duck considering she's 95) but this was an awkward conversation.

(after a conversation about my cousin's wedding)
G: So do you have a special man, UAN?
UAN: No no, grandma. I'm not seeing anyone.
G: Oh that's a shame. But people are waiting longer these days. What sort of wedding would you have?
UAN: I'm not sure if I'm going to get married, grandma.
G: But what if you did, I probably won't be around to see it. Could you describe it to me?
UAN: Ummm, I haven't really thought about it. I'd make sure there was plenty of champagne for you though.
G: hehe and what else would you have.

etc...

Testing the friendship grandmama... ;)
