Is it wrong to think you're unattractive?

There are a lot of ways to pose in life and put on airs to overcome a sense of insecurity and project manliness.

Mysteries way is just one of them.

If you touch a glowing hot stove and burn yourself, are you going to A: scream "****!!!! THAT HURTS!!!!!" or are you going to B: touch it again?

Of course then again, maybe you're from column B.

That pity-party mentality is repulsive.

Marcellus Wallace apparently agrees.

Pity eyes can work... if you're a puppy.

That's the problem. One shouldn't pose or project anything. That fake alpha-male act is just sad. Insecurities need to be addressed in a constructive manner, not covered up.

I'm sure you were just pumping iron non-stop when you were in your formidable years and taking names, but for the rest of us that weren't screwing everyone we saw, maybe there's some reasoning to be found as to WHY things happened and WHAT can be done about it.

If that sounds piteous to you, there's always other threads.

Remember, he might've served them his dirty whites in the ringer, but he was far more alone than the dude ever was.

I am the walrus.

But quite frankly, this aggression will not stand. The dude abides.

The Dude abides. I don't know about you but I take comfort in that. It's good knowin' he's out there. The Dude. Takin' 'er easy for all us sinners. Shoosh. I sure hope he makes the finals.

Sometimes, there's a man, well, he's the man for his time and place. He fits right in there. And that's the Dude. The Dude, from Los Angeles. And even if he's a lazy man - and the Dude was most certainly that. Quite possibly the laziest in all of Los Angeles County, which would place him high in the runnin' for laziest worldwide. Sometimes there's a man, sometimes, there's a man.

Yeah but the real question for this thread is:

Does the female form make you uncomfortable, Mr. Lebowski?

So you have no frame of reference here, Donny. You're like a child who wanders into the middle of a movie and wants to know...

Well if your artwork is extremely vaginal I can only say the word bothers some men. While without batting an eye a man will refer to his dick or his rod or his Johnson, the word vagina itself makes some men uncomfortable. Vagina.
