You don't just take a yandere and go on your merry way. It's the yandere who takes you... home.

Hmmm.... I'm one who accidentally broke Oppa's leg when I kicked him in the shin for smoking once, and I consider myself a kuuyandere.

What the heck are you wearing when you kicked his leg? Steel-toed safety boots or powered armour?

RE Types: I think it's flawed to say that there are different types of people out there. You can't discretize humanity as a whole into chunks. Each person is individual and all that.

However, when someone says they're not "his type", this is still a valid statement. I say it quite often myself. Basically, we all prefer different things in the people we date. Be it appearance or personality. In a sense, these preferences are our "type".

I'll use the "type" phrase when pertaining to guys as well as girls. "Your type of person" is the set of people you tend to get along with -> have chemistry with. There are some people who you naturally get along better with then others, and generally you're good at recognising, though it's often difficult to precisely define it. It also bears mentioning that it's much easier to define who isn't your type then who is. So I find it very difficult to be attracted to girls who mostly talk about soaps and going out, or "big" women.

When referring to dates appearance tends to get thrown into the mix. Generally speaking I'd say most people, when they talk about the people they've dated/been attracted too, will find all their previous partners share stuff in common. It can kinda get creepy when you think about it. For instance all the people I've ever been seriously attracted to had straight dark hair, fine featured,petite and usually wore glasses and a bit eccentric. This isn't my type per se. I've also been attracted to people who did not strictly meet this description. I'd say the only thing that is particularly hard and fast is what size you like. I'll never go for women who are physically large (and I don't just mean fat), and I always prefer em petite. I know guys though who do very much like them big. It's a preference thing.

Re Smoking: I didn't mean to cause the thread to derail on a tangent. I don't really care much about the intracacies of smoking. I just dislike the smell. Cigarette smoke is nasty stuff. Smokers don't realise it because they're exposed to it so often. I could care less about the rest, if you want to harm your health it's your choice, but don't expect us to put up with the smell...

I admit to not being a fan of smoking. Watching your grandmother slowly dying because in her life she was both a smoker and a drinker wasn't a fun experience. Sorry about that.

Now that I think about it, maybe I was also a bit over the line with some replies, in the sense that I was not considerate about personal experiences of others. My bad.

Still logically thinking smoking itself, especially second hand, is the least of one's health concerns, compared to pollution from vehicles' exhausted, and even worse carbon-burning power plants. There is also the health background, my mother's father was a heavy smoker till his death at 89 from heart attack, while my father is still live-and-genki at 60, unfortunately for me

Like Syn's girlfriend, I just get agitated with non-smoking campaigners slogans, because there is an increasing oppression based on half-truths also in Europe. I am not saying that it is a good habit, but what I am saying is that discriminating and oppressing people for whatever reason is wrong.

PS: Back to the skin colour example, it is possible to change it, possibly easier than quitting smoking

False. The first thing I argued against was an actually the straw man fallacy. Fallacies are always wrong, so you can't really argue for it by turning it into something.

http://www.nizkor.org/features/fallacies/straw-man.html

Although turning a bad habit into a racist issue was very compelling... you also committed a fallacy called weak analogy.

Quote:

Well, I do call that shallow too.

Reasons?

Quote:

I dated a vegetarian and the smell of her excrement was horrendous, should I stop considering dating vegetarians or just not use the toilet till the ventilation does the trick

Again, weak analogy. I would be highly concerned with you if you went out of your way to smell your girlfriends poop, which I'm assuming you don't. The smell of a smoker is near constant and inescapable.

Also, being a vegetarian is generally considered healthy. The point I made which you seemed to have ignored is that smoking is..dun dun dun...bad for you! I know, it's crazy. And when someone smokes, they send the message to others that they don't care enough about themselves and their own health to stop smoking, so why would someone assume that they would be fit to care deeply about another person? I'm not saying that all smokers are heartless beasts. But I am saying, it sends a negative message to others, and if someone doesn't want to date you because if that habit, it's not shallow, it's rational.

Just regular jeans and snickers. I just happen to have a few dans in Karate and Taekwondo, and was working on Korean kendo before the move to Canada.

I personally use the phrase "not my type" when someone who is handsome and/or has a desirable character, but nevertheless isn't attractive to me as a potential lover.
So just nice in theory, but ... not interested. However, it's definitely both looks and personality for me.

I do have preferences of course. Like: I don't like guys with long hair. So most of the time I'll say that a long haired guy is "not my type". But there are some that look good with it after all .. it really depends. I always decide from person to person

Can anyone give me a decent romance chat room? All I get are people who only can say "ok" and "lol". Maybe somewhere people can hold an intilligent conversation...

I haven't really done the whole chatting thing before, and all my efforts are hitting walls. Is IRC a good place to go? What servers?

synaesthetic · 2011-06-20, 15:31

Intelligent conversation and chat room should not be in the same sentence.

I've actually dated one before. They're actually a lot of fun.

I agree, up until the point where she started blaming me for stuff I never did, and then keying my truck, etc.
