Why do women speak in a way that their true intentions are hidden in their language instead of just being out their.

In other words why do they say one thing but really mean another. Do they do this on purpose or unconsciously?

I met this one bitch who kept telling me she is falling for me, I didn't believe her and thought she was wierd because we only met a few days before she was telling me all this, I find out that she had several boyfriends at one time. Was she trying to seduce me into being another boyfriend, or was she just fucked up in the head?

And you generalize from this one experience to all women?

Why do men generalize from a few experiences with women to all women?

Why do men think referring to a woman as a "bitch" is somehow clever?

Probably both.

When making an analysis it is always good to generalize and look at individual cases at the same time.

If you totally exclude one, than it wouldn't be a true analysis.

Women have noses. another generilization for you.

Irish are drunks. Another generalization.

Blacks are lazy. Another generalization.

Arabs are terrorists. Another generalization.

Hey, I've known (or heard of) individuals of each group who fit the stereotype. Gee, it must be true.

Those aren't stereotypes, those are just myths.

I have never known an Irish person that was a drunk

I have never known a Lazy black person

And I bet you haven't met individuals like this either. Just myths

So if generalizing is bad, than according to you, medical scientists would have to test every rat in the world before they come up with conclusions, we wouldn't want to generalize would we.

Me and Me -

You are going to have to learn to make your points without coming off as a misogynist boor. You are also going to have to play a new record because this bitches-never-say-what-they-mean-and-all-women-are-bitches rap is boring me to tears.

To answer your question, is it possible this woman does not believe in monogamy or at least does not care to practice it at this point in her life? Even if I accept your (somewhat implausible, imo) description of her desire for you, why is that wrong just because it is accompanied by desire for other men as well?

I think that perhaps she just has poor judgment, or bad luck, in choosing men.
