this is a chess site not a breast site

so  if you happen to be a pretty women who likes to play chess it's best  not to post a pic of yourself because you are inviteing  every man on that site to make unwanted sexual advances towards you .  and when they find out that picture is not you then they get mad at you for them being a sleezebag. boyi'm glad i'm not a girl

I understand the good nature flirting  which i guess is fine if both parties contribute but shouldn't you make sure you know whoyour talking to first

note to fella's still not a girl

ok, but more seriously. we live in a golden age. does everyone realise what this conversation signifies? we live in a society where the average citizen not only recognises and peruses (and i mean peruse in the literal, not the connotative sense: to examine thoroughly) the FACT that we all wear masks (thanks artist whom we know as shakespear and subsequent western psychologists) in an open discussion in a public forum. even 50 years ago many social interactions were based upon the honesty mistakenly perceived masquerading as the typical human facade.

we all lie all the time. even autistics and neuro patients who are nearly incapable of telling lies tend to lie as well, if oftentimes only in mimicry or an attempt to socialise by 'fitting in'. to act like one does not intentionally deceive on a daily basis in effect to what one's persona should be perceived as is a denial of what it means to be alive and human.

people get over yourselves. it's all a delusion of interpretation. human senses can only perceive less than 1% of what actually exists in nature. senses dictate emotions. emotions govern behavior. behavior is directly related to one's actions. the more we acknowledge these facts the more we can interrelate in ways that are less counterproductive.

there is no gender war genetically. it is a social construction.

dating.... relationships.   i think it's more about relationships.  for a crude example:  who, honestly, could you shart your pants in the presence of (without justifiable reason or excuse) and not feel any shame. 

very few people in your life, if any.    intimacy is dirty stuff.  it's difficult to reveal that we are helpless animals, ultimately.

controlled by hormones, if we cannot mature appropriately.

dadiekool's not a girl, skibaby's not a girl, cat's can't play chess!?!   all my sisters are turning into brothers.  i'm have to say i'm a bit dissapointed, but not because i was or was not deceived.  i'm bummed because i've been paying every week to give my cute kitty Bebe chess lessons.

why god? why?      next you'll tell me that jesus isn't really the easter bunny.   wait!  i'd rather not have my love of candy and theology part ways. 

lalalalalalalala i'm not listening lalalalalalal plugging my ears lololololololololmao

uh OK

I think it's the reasoning behind it, that makes it a bit wierd. 

can we just go abck to the point where it's a bit weird to have a womans picture as your avatar when you are a man?????

or is it just me??? it is weird right??

Even if you are gay, its a bit weird...

most men i know who are gay generally tend to be proud of the fact they are men who like other men, and so it doesn't make sense they would have a womans picture there...

maybe i am missing some thing here...
