Hey everyone! This is going to sound absolutely ridiculous (at least to me it was absurd), but my boyfriend and I got in an argument with one of his friend's last night, because his friend claims that he is not attracted to artsy girls because he likes more "feminine" women than that. It just kind of strikes me as odd, because most of my artsy friends, including myself, are pretty feminine. Even if we weren't, though, to make such a comment is kind of arrogant. Art comes in so many different forms, and delicacy is definitely a common form, so I do not see what he is getting at. I think he is just one of those people who likes to argue! What are your thoughts?
That sounds like the type of man who believes women are fragile. They should be seen, not heard, live their life doing chores, and leave everything else to the man. Or, at least, that's how I take it. It's utterly ridiculous! Women can be artsy and feminine, just like they can do literally anything else in the world and be feminine if they desire. -shakes head-
Funny, I come across more people who think being artsy is the same as being feminine.
Never underestimate the stupidity of people.
Art isn't feminine, nor is it masculine. The femininity or masculinity of art depends on the individual piece, or the artist in question.
Point is, this guy doesn't know what he's talking about. He probably just has a mental image of what an artsy girl looks like, and it doesn't fit into his definition of 'feminine'. He probably thinks we're all angsty, androgynous, have cleanliness issues, don't shave our pits, **** like that. So yeah, he's probably just got misconceptions about artsy girls because he's thinking we're all the stereotype when obviously we're not. He's probably hit on artsy girls before and didn't even realize it.
Or something to that effect.
I think everyone is reading into this a bit too much. The guy is attracted to (his description not mine) "girly" girls. I don't think it is anything more than that.
