I have no clue what the blogger's relationship is like, but that she wishes people wouldn't put revealing pictures on facebook doesn't necessarily say what most of you seem to think it does.


I do.

She has given us a window into what a no self-esteem controlling person she is. I actually feel sorry for her kid and the kid they are about to adopt.

Her telling us how she'd happily post shots of herself naked...if only she had rock hard abs, but since she doesn't the rest of the world needs to cover up due to her embarrassment at the lack of rock hard abs tells me everything I'd ever want to know about her.

Her husband is either a saint...or has forgotten how to pursue other women and thinks he is trapped with this one forever.

It's the general opinion that we think she is clearly VERY insecure. You don't agree with this?


I disagree with the implication that her insecurity necessarily arises from some failing of her own or something lacking in their relationship.

I believe that's a shallow way of considering this topic.

I know that my relationship is better now than it was when I had, let's say, typical web-viewing habits. I know that since I stopped doing that I don't view women the same way I used to. (FTR, my wife never said a word about any of it).
I know it's not as simple as "she needs to be less inescure" and "there's nothing wrong with looking".

Unless the guy also has major self esteem issues he is going to leave her eventually (either directly by breaking up with her or indirectly by cheating). You can't be with someone that insecure and enjoy the relationship - everyday life is intolerable if every perfume or victoria's secret commercial causes a flurry of insecurity from the other side of the couch.

I don't understand women like the blogger. If you SO wanted to be with another person he would be with another person. Having a perfect body is less important than lust, confidence, and compatibility anyway. When your relationship is under constant strain from having to reassure the SO it degenerates and probably eventually dies.

Oh okay, sure.

I would prefer my spouse not hang out with stripping guys, that makes me "controlling".

Yes because a guy seeing a pic of a woman's breasts and vagina FULLY COVERD but in a bikini on a FB wall feed is the same as a man going to a strip club.



Honestly, lusting over one and the other is the same thing.

I know a lot of people disagree, we live in a sex crazed culture.

Do so and then see if the criticism is valid. She starts out saying some things that make sense, but just gets subtly crazier and crazier revealing herself to be hopelessly insecure and extremely controlling.

Not having a perfect body is a "failing"?

I don't expect women to retain anything near a perfect body well into their 30s and after having children.

Again, FTR, my wife weighs less than she did when we married and that's after having 4 kids.

eta; unless you're saying she's being hypocritical.

To her it clearly is. Did you read the entire blog? It is very clear she is unhappy with her appearance.

I sent the blog to my wife. Her thoughts:
quote:

She's so insecure about her own body that she lets every "decent" body she sees on a social site affect her marriage. And she's projecting her own feelings onto her husband and using that as a scape goat
My thoughts:
quote:

She's annoying as frick and I want to strangle her after reading that. He'll divorce her in a year and it won't have anything to do with another girl's covered boobs he once saw in a facebook picture

do you think that if she stuffs a dollar bill in a male strippers jock strap she is less of a person?

Think she is cheating?

Think she is going to leave you for said stripper?

If not, why do you care if she is hanging out with male strippers.

Do you not trust her?

Are you afraid she will find a better man?

Your lack of self-confidence in your own ability to continue to attract your life mate is pretty telling.

Men are visual creatures. Always have been and always will. They could be married to Adriana Lima....and still be checking out other women. It's just how yall are wired.


So if Brad Pitt would walk by, you wouldnt check him out? Women are just as horny as men and check out men just as much, they just make it less obvious.

Not having a perfect body is not a failing nor the issue at hand.

The issue at hand is because she doesn't have a perfect body she expects the rest of the world to "cover up". It is subtle slut shamming at it's worst.

My wife no longer has the body she had when she was 22. You can bet I'm still chasing her around as often as possible now that she is at 43. Self confidence is wildly attractive.

This chick has zero.

Of course I would check him out. Knowing how much I love Brad Pitt my husband would point him out to me(and I would do the same if some hot actress I know he likes walked by).


Finding a member of the opposite sex attractive isn't cheating. It's being human.

I didn't say women don't check men out. We do. I just said that men are MUCH more visual than women.

What does that mean though? "more visual". We are more easily visually stimulated? We dont have the same depth of emotion when looking for a mate? We see a red head walk by with a low cut v-neck and a great rack and are mesmerized for 10 mins whereas a female can see a hot guy walk by and glance at his junk and get over it in 5 mins instead?
