Don't trust yourselves that much, ladies.
The woman who has been regarded as the most beautiful woman in Turkey for ages (even though she is in her forties) has had his husband stolen (stolen by an another woman who is even less beautiful than her. you might know who the woman is. It is Hülya Avşar.

Women likes stealing other women's (who are more beautiful and attractive than them) men. I think it is just to appease their female vanity by implying "Your man has prefered me to YOU. It doesn't matter how beautiful and attractive you are. He is mine from now on but not yours any longer." Men go to the gym or buy the most expensive suit or car to attract women. On the other hand women do such things as going to the gym, making up, dressing nice not to attract men only but to compete with other women.

As you know very well, ladies that the part who starts and ends a relationship whenever it wishes is women. The world turns around you. Women are superior to men in contrary to it is regarded by some. I dont think if women didn't exist there wouldn't be such things as a mercedes car or expensive suits.

Are you tellig me you have never ever had a look at (at least glimpsed)and wished to be inside a luxurious car passing by while walking on pavements? It doesn't make you a predator.

And also I haven't said anything implying that all the women are predators. In fact what I am talking about is not about the preys and predators, but about the natures of both sexes.

I have to strongly agree with aenigma_X here. This posting is a bit outrageous and certainly an outdated view. It's important to say we can't speak for "all women" or "all men". But, I don't have any friends who desire a flashy car that costs a fortune to be seen a "status symbol". I do know a flashy car is often more important and attractive to men.

Most women are now economically independent, and seek a partner, not based on superficial qualities, but rather spiritual, intellectual and emotional depth. A mercedes is easy to come by, but these qualities are not.

In terms of sharp dress. Of course both sexes like to look and feel attractive and sexy. It is a part of being human. It's a way one uniquely expresses oneself. Do we like to impress men, to be looked at and admired. Of course- who doesn't? But it's more for personal gratification and expression.

There are men and women out there who seek "expensive things" and perhaps a "token beautiful woman by thier side" because they are insecure, and feels this upgrades, or improves their poor self image- but my gosh, it is certainly not the norm in society.

I like nice things, and I work hard to earn money to buy them.

Look here This car was my step dads pride and joy and loved driving it..but because of it's lack of use he decided to sell it but when he did have it he did not show it off apart from when he took it to corvette/car shows where they would all meet up to share their interests.

And just because we had a car like this does not mean we are filthy rich or like to impress any one...like Aenigma said... my step dad also bought this car because he wanted it and worked hard for it, not because he wanted to show it off.
So not everyone buys material goods to impress another person but only for themselves (self enjoyment)

well everyone dresses how they feel comfortable and often those who wear the most revealing clothes do so because they are trying to reassure themselves that they are attractive and are trying to hide low confidence..for the same reason most women i know are happy to be ogled by men because it means they are still 'wanted' in a sense...weird but when peiople think about it when a woman wants to be noticed they normally show some cleavage or a bit of leg
anyways not sure how this is related to the original thread
