Us & Them

One of the most enjoyable activities in life is to participate in a girl-talk. When a bunch of girlfriends start talking about the untalkable, the discussion goes beyond imaginations, beyond speakable and beyond reason. Why beyond reason? Because it’s about boys, and boys are beyond reason.

Let me give you an example. One of this girl-group’s members (let’s call her Leila) starts seeing a guy. In one of these girl gatherings she shares information about the guy; and yes, it does include all sort of information including dimensions, behavior, etc.. Then the girls start giving tips based on their experiences so that this new relationship works. One of the girls suggests (more like orders) that Leila shouldn’t sleep with this guy until they’ve gone out 5 times. Some girls start laughing at this comment, some agree with her, and some suggest even more than 5 times.

First I thought to myself that this was a really lame suggestion. I was amongst those who laughed. But when I think of it I have to admit that it actually is very true for most of the guys. Girls should avoid early sex so that the guy likes her and starts a serious relationship with her. Girls back me up. Guys I know you might say no but come on…

So dear gentlemen, what exactly is wrong with you? Would you sacrifice a good relationship for a onetime sex? Say you like a girl. You go for a date. The opportunity turns up and you can get lucky (as you call it). So why would you sleep with her when you know you won’t like her as much afterward. Why don’t you just hold back, hang out for a while (5 times or whatever it takes) so you can like the girl? Why do you sacrifice a good relationship for a one night orgasm?

This is why I say guys are beyond reason. Girls? The most reasonable entities on planet earth. OK. OK. We can be complicated sometimes.

P.S. there are always exceptions.
