Why Men Are Bumbling Idiots

"Uh. Er. Ummm. Uh. Er..."

I find Jude Law to be mind-numbingly attractive. There is no doubt in my mind that if I were ever to happen across him, I would be reduced to simple sentences and one-syllable words.  But according to a new study, it’s Jude who has to worry about the mind-numbing affect when interacting with members of the opposite sex. Namely, me.

Psychologists in the Netherlands carried out a study that found that after only a few minutes of chatting with an attractive woman, a man’s brain function is significantly decreased. Women, however, maintained their calm, cool and intellectually superior attitude when talking with handsome men. Once again, it has been proven that women are smarter than men. Or at least that we can handle ourselves in public.

Not the boys, though; put Heidi Klum in a room with the smartest man alive and he will be reduced to a bumbling idiot within minutes.

So the next time you’re talking to a hottie, pull confidence from the fact that he is probably straining to remember his middle name while you bat your eyelashes.  Or if you’re feeling particularly vindictive against an ex, wear a short skirt to class on exam day and give him a wink. Chances are high his mind will blank out on the very first question.

Just another weapon in the female gender’s arsenal, right alongside withholding sex and tampon-talk.

    Oh yeah . . . wait till we get you in the bedroom. I find it great to visit this site. The inner thoughts of women revealed. It is better than a confessional box.

    This study just screams sexism. I would really need a better context of exactly what sort of brain functions decreased, and how it specifically affects behavior.

    I also truly hate the way in which this study was presented. Men are not bumbling idiots. If women seek equality and intellectual respect, we need to stop with the low-blows and attacks on men.

    It seems the battle of the sexes rages even during the first meeting. Many still think men have the upper hand and that women still have a long to go to achieve equality. I personally think women have arrived. At a farm in Asia, I saw women peeing standing up, fully clothed. If that is not achieving equality with men very early on, I don't know what is.

    Men are reduced to bumbling idiots because we know how fucking judgemental and bitchy girls are. If we make one fucking mistake, the girl will think that we are scum. Then, she will go tell all her friends about the loser guy who was talking to her. Guys have so much fucking pressure on them with girls it is no wonder why guys have trouble sometimes. Give a fucking guy a break for god sakes. We are all human beings, and nobody is perfect. So what if a guy is nervous around you. That probably means that you are attractive and he doesn't want to fuck it up. I would be more concerned if no guy ever talked to you. That would means you look like shit. Give guys a break.

    I don't mean to pile on but the tone of this article screams insecurity. But I would think that's what inequality would create.

    yeah now answer the with holding of sex. I dont get all mum when I talk to a pretty lady. I confident in what I bring to the table. And if theres one thing I live is a challenge. So when my boys and I are chillin at the bar, I'm the first to chat up the ladies, what are they gonna do say no. If they do then hey theres plenty of more ladies just as good lookin in the room. Trust me.

    We guys should drop our ego and admit this is true. That way we can find a way to improve our brain function. I know from personal experience that when I'm on a date with a woman with nice cleavage, it is a mentally rigorous exercise to comprehend what she is saying. I just excuse myself, go to the men's room and try to clear my head, lol!

    Spanning 4 decades now Western Society, that great bastion of "sexual equality" has been pounding into eveyone that women in every way are far better than men and must be treated accordingly (maybe truth really is whatever lie can be told often enough). I am noticing now that men are now referred to just as boys or guys. And yet it is offensive to call a woman a girl. Why am I really the only one who sees this as a double standard? Is it because it is only against men? Or is something far more sinister going on?

    Where’s the evidence in this study? It was said that it was found that our brain functions are reduced when talking to an attractive woman. Where’s the evidence? If there was any at all, how was it obtained? It’s not unheard that scientist can throw out test results that contradict their hypothesis or desired result. I can guarantee that if I was talking to an attractive woman, I’d still have my mind present. Why do I guarantee this? Because I can and I did. How many men was used as sample data? A scientist cannot determine that studies are accurate with too small of a sample. Makes me wonder if bad statistics played a part in this outcome too. As for women who use withholding sex as a weapon, it doesn’t prove you’ve got the “power”. It actually means that you may have issues with sexual abuse, misconceptions about men, control issues, vindictive streak, sexist, misconceptions about sex or passive aggressive. That is all.

    The continues attack on men by feminists in the Western World continues. They don't want to talk about how 99,99% of the inventions are done by men, but how hard it is for men to handle the pressures of rejection while having to keep the conversation going in a interesting way and remember all the BS rules feminazis have created to make Western whores impossible to get along with.

    Listen there wouldn't be any pressure on men, if we didn't have to do all the moves and take all the risks. You get off your fat ass and start doing everything while we just sit back and look for reasons to reject you on a whim and let's see how you will do.

    Now I remember why I'm getting a Eastern European girl and not a Western feminazi brainwashed one. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Tell us what you're thinking...
