I asked some young men and women about their general views of the opposite sex including their ideal mate in five words. The persons interviewed were in the age range of 18-28. For the purpose of confidentiality, no names shall be mentioned.
This is what the guys had to say about the ladies
G-generally, I-ideal
Guy #1: G-attractive, traitorous, seductive,emotional,deceitful
I-free spirited, genuine, forgiving, beautiful, something that should be there but you can't tell what is it.
Guy#2: G-caring, charming, complicated, kind hearted, bold
I-caring, beautiful, simple, kind hearted, intelligent
Guy#3: G-manipulative, persistent, convincing, emotional, strong hearted
I-respectable, supportive, honest, romantic, sexy
Guy#4: G-fragile, gullible, emotional, arrogant, secretive
I-adventurous, smart, down to earth, sweet +sexy, beautiful
Guy #5: G-complicated, insecure, loving, intelligent, conceited
I-honest, beautiful, loving, respectful, friendly
Well....looks like the guys had quite some to say....and the ladies?
Girl #1: G-stupidd, backstabbing, immoral, promiscuous, predictable
I-generous, attractive, trustworthy, a charmer, smart
Girl#2: G-assholes, impulsive, flaky, deceitful, big headed
I-ambitious, creative, funny, sexy, good natured
Girl#3: G-Egotistical, adventurous, moody, envious, wild
I-caring, adventurous, funny, handsome, smell gud like a mdfkr
Girl#4: G-Egotistical, honest-most of the time, daring, assertive, aggressive
I-honest, trustworthy, bold, handsome, well groomed
Girl#5: G-unpredictable, bold, daring, irresponsible, weak opponent
I-patient, ambitious, cute, understanding, supportive
I could describe men as being lying-cheating dogs, who are sex crazed, controlling, manipulative and self absorbed but in all fairness and being unbiased they deserve bold, risk-taking, reassuring and assertive, challenging and simple :).
It was very effortless for each person to describe his or her ideal significant other but a little more challenging to classify the opposite sex in just five words...which is fair.
We encounter situations everyday that shape our lives and especially our principles. The five words that were selected can tell so much about a person and yet so little. It's easy to identify what's missing when we meet someone even what's wrong but somehow it always seems harder to embrace what good qualities the person has.
We may not understand each other and brag that the world would definitely be better without the presence of the opposite sex but we know for a fact that life would be quite a cliche.
So men are simple and women are complicated but ......if both men and women were simple, life would be like your favourite candy but without the exceptional taste and if men and women were both complicated, life would be like your favourite candy with so many different flavours that couldn't combine well and therefore it wouldn't be your favourite anymore.
So call up your loved one and give him or her five things or more that you find ideal about him or her even if he or she doesn't fit your ideal profile.
As for me? My ideal guy? 5 words? hmmm......tremendously honest (but in a sensitive way), 100% supportive, sweet as hell- a charmer, a risk taker and smart ;).
What about you? which of my interviewees do you agree or disagree with? What is your input? What 5 words make up your ideal person? Hit me :P

I can definitely agree and say that women are very manipulative....it's like they cast this spell over you...can't describe it. I would love a woman who is sexy, honest, smart, ambitious, funny...sounds like you, right?
Loving this piece
I have to say that most men and women think the same about each other...They think the guys are egotistic most likely because men feel that they can have whichever woman they want. This is especially evident when they do that annoying sound "pssssssssssst" and expect women to turn around, giggle and blush. NO! NO! AND NO!
However, many men realise that this is a pathetic gesture and either give up or try a different tactic. [[This choice that they make usually shows just how interested they are in us women]]
There is no ideal man. No matter how far we look, everyone has flaws. You may be looking for an ideal man but are you infact an ideal woman?
98% of us ladies have dated, will date in the future and are presently dating right now and i am 100 % sure that nun of us have found our "ideal" guy..why this is happening..because this "ideal guy" does not exist....what we have to do is look beyond the flaws of our loved ones and cherish what we have because if both work together as a team they could overcome all and become the "ideal mate" to each other.....
umm.... wat do i say?? my ideal woman already knows how i describe her....INDESCRIBABLE :-D
Anyways bubba...time to go. Have fun doin dis (K) it already seems like u are
I LOVE UUUUUUUU
Juju
hahaaaaaaaaaaaa lol i saw my thought up there...great post sweety...welcome to blogspot
i think women need 2 get real......and stop talkin shit about all men are the same....they should stop actin like they have no faults and never the ones dat sumtimes cause men to act like sex-crazed animals...THEY SHOULD STOP PISSIN GOOD GUYS LIKE ME OFF!!!!
OK ms.anonymous I know who u are :P lol. I agree with you and Jonelle to some extent but at the same time....ever heard of one man's trash is another man's treasure? So I may not be his ideal woman but i'm certain as hell that i'm someone else's but the real issue is, what if this someone, isn't my ideal guy? Then what happens? The catch here is that the ideal guy can't always get the ideal girl so you gotta settle but that doesn't necessarily mean that u're settling for less..after all each person is ideal to someone else :)
Imperfection may be what's perfect sometimes.
hmm i think that both sexes dont try to understand each other and end up critisizin and blaming the opposite sex..every one is unique in their own way and every one has flaws..so u jus hav to take the good with the bad n make it work..after all no one is perfect..
lol soo thats what uw ere trying to dooo... lol
o well...
ah she have a blogg..
add minessss

we could all agree to disagree to agree but no but...it is true that we all are shaped by moments in our life that we may think is meaningless, but hey it makes us who we are, whether dats dats a dark personality or bright... however bright or dark it makes us we all have a vilan and a hero in our lives and thats our ideal mate...
we therfore cannot generalize any person because no one is da same in general.no one will be perfect because no one is perfect. we however must overlook the mini flaws, in ourselves or others. we think may think dat it is their fault what if it is our fault, our behaviour....
.... men should never be vs women and no matter who you are and what your qua;lities are, you are an ideal one
The man and woman issue. No biggie women are complicated indeed , shy i must say,manipulative when they need to be and masters of deception.And about being sex crazed, men just need to come to the realization the women crave as much and maybe even more than we do. They jus let us do the chasin when they were always the ones pullin the strings spreadin pheromones. Do the math guys reverse the equation!!!
so the sexes... i dunno why people complain so much uh.. if whatever ur man or woman doing you cannot live with then leave... because at the end of the day a relationship is about accepting everything the person is for what he or she is.... if you have to try to fabricate a new being from a preexisting one its not worth it.. u better keep on looking.. i love all my flaws and his flaws.. thats what gives you the extra urmph( yeh yeh.. thats a sound)...nobody is perfetc... what a boring world it would be if we were ehh...
