No thanks. You go ahead with that.
I'll vote for whatever third party candidate is polling highest.
But, if Oprah wins...at least she will be the first president in nearly 20 years whose voice doesn't make me roll my eyes. And I loved her in The Color Purple. I like Oprah even if I resent the media and Hollywood selecting our presidents and candidates.
I can live with Oprah because I survived GWB, Obama, and Trump.
We all need a jolt of advancement, who gives that to us, I don't know.

They won't be running, whoever it is.
I hope you will consider that the best thing you can do with your vote is to give it to a third party. All they need is 5% to topple the two-party system.
Check the polls in your state the night before the election. If one of the two party candidates is easily going to take your state, no matter how you vote...then cast your vote for whatever third party candidate is polling the highest.
To me, that's the greatest good I could ever achieve with my vote for U.S. president: ending the two-party system.

Oh. So your opinions on the state of women's issues and the laws that protect women in the United States are based on pure media & celebrity-inspired crap, after all.
Vote for Oprah? You vote for Oprah for president of everywhere.
Bleh.
Nope, never said that...you mind is working overtime on ATS, I see. If you want to know, me ask.

Yes, I want male attention. I want to be admired.
It feels good to be seen as attractive. I didn't ever go out to pick up for a night, but always wanted to enjoy a conversation with someone. I set the boundaries. As a young woman, I always wanted to be the best looking woman in the place.
Even as a woman in my forties, i still want to look good...I make an effort just because I think it shows politeness to everyone you meet. Male and female.

As a woman in my 30's, I just don't understand this "dressing for attention" mentality, and never have. Will the world stop turning or the universe cease to exist or something if you don't flaunt/tease? No? Then what's the point? What's the benefit gained here from dressing sultry/sexy/trashy if it gets you absolutely nothing in return?
I've never understood why clothing and make-up seem to be the crux of what should make women feel good about themselves. They're not permanent changes, and they don't fix any mental problems (self-esteem, etc) Once the face paint rinses down the drain and the skin-tight shapewear gets tossed aside, you're back to the same old You that you evidently don't like much in the first place, because you went & covered it all up/sucked everything in to fit the shapewear.
That's my take anyway. I'd rather just be as-is Me than be fake for a few hours. There's no lasting pleasure in faking anything.
At the risk of sounding creepy, you sound like my kind of woman. I enjoy the outdoors and have always been attracted to women who do as well. You just can't do all that extra stuff on a 3 day hike. That said I will look at the woman in the LBD.

now all the feminists aren't responding

because there doesn't seem to be much being discussed in this thread that I would refer to courtship??
neither would I consider the stories I have read by those who are making the allegations meet what I would call courtship.
it seems that while half of us are talking about the actions that were described in the allegations, the other half are wanting to pretend that just asking a girl out to dinner is gonna get you in trouble and then pointing to those who chose to speak out about their unpleasant experiences and of course the evil feminists as being the problem....
but, I have three adult sons, they've had plenty of dates, they have had plenty of female coworkers, they have female friends.... they have never had any accusations against them...
of course, they treat others with respect... they would never pin someone they recently met, or worse, don't know to a wall in attempt to steal a kiss... or anything like that. they aren't out clubbing and having one night stands either.
sex symbol.
she said last year, referring to the #MeToo hashtag. “After ‘calling out your pig’ what are we going to have, ‘call our your whore’?”

A smart sex kitten. Before I awoke in this mandela universe I was "engaging" her. I meant engaged to her.

She is a clever woman.
She will not understand her charges because she did nothing wrong. But the New laws wont care..... Laws dont have human feelings or human understanding.
Lady's when you put on your tightest LBD is that to attract male attention
