Can A Person's Attitude Affect Their Attractiveness

grumpybear @ShortyAkbar (384) • United States 20 Dec 08

I feel that a person's attitude can affect their attractiveness. For example, my cousin's wife is pretty. However, she's really mean and selfish. The way she acts makes her ugly in my opinion. (See what I'm getting at?) When I was...

sanjo0679 Attitude is everything. I've seen many attractive people become totally unattractive just by opening their mouth. Everyone has a little attitude at one time or another for various reasons, ie, having a bad day, not feeling well, etc. But there are those that...

sanjo0679 If the use of a cell phone while driving is absolutely necessary then a hands free device should be used. It's easy enough to get distracted while driving and talking on the phone only adds to the distraction. It wouldn't bother me if they banned all cell...

WalMart ethics... How do you feel about them?

mentalward @mentalward (14690) • United States 9 Dec 08

Enough of us have heard horror stories about WalMart's ethics towards their employees. Because of the notoriety, they have improved some things for their workers, but not by much. I've experienced employees there (oh, excuse...

sanjo0679 From what I've seen from the Walmart I worked for, store management has a lot to do with promotions of associates. When I was there we always had management that only cared about themselves. It appears that now there is a management team at that store that...

Do you find men funnier than women?

mimpi @mimpi1911 (25464) • India 7 Dec 08

Well I do. For some undefined reason, I find men wittier than women. Funny women of celluloid are always fat, eating lots of food with dumb one or two liners. On the contrary, the men are funny, more with their infallible sense...

sanjo0679 Personally, in my own personal case, I am far more wittier than my husband and most men that I know. My sense of humor is what keeps me going, even through the toughest of times. I've known some very witty women during my lifetime so I'm going with women being...

sanjo0679 Must be why they say that the English language is the hardest language to learn. With all of our slang and different words that make no sense at all, to anyone else but us, that is, I can see why.

sanjo0679 Yes, I use all my fingers when typing. And the more I type, the faster I go. I hate when I get to the point to where I'm typing faster than I'm thinking and start making a lot of errors. I tease my husband because he uses only his index fingers. I refer to him...

sanjo0679 I believe most women clean better than men. I'm with you, if I want something really cleaned, I do it myself. I pull things out to get behind and under them and make sure to get in corners. My husband tends to just go through the motions, so to speak, to look...

sanjo0679 I think it's okay to let your friend back into your life. But to be on the safe side, keep your guard up. You never know if he'll react the same way if you should need his support again. He may be just one of these people that only cares about his own...

Does it seem strange for a married man to not wear his wedding band anymore?

cream97 @cream97 (29086) • United States 15 Nov 08

If a married man used to wear his wedding band, but does not anymore, is that a bit odd. He says that the ring does not make the marriage. But, the woman still wears hers. When he goes to work, he takes it off because of the job...
