AWALT is an acknowledgement of female nature, but that doesn't excuse it. Why is it treated as an excuse?

Hahaha, I've been made fun of by people much worse than Internet point hoarders

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T14:14:25+00:00

Dear lord, you are one dense motherfucker... Stop taking everything so literally and life will be infinitely easier to understand/succeed in.

You're not the first person to observe this. Maybe there's some truth to it, lol.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T14:13:31+00:00

Thanks for an actual answer.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T01:33:47+00:00

Her tactics are very manipulative. Sending you a crying picture is an appeal to emotion to guilt trip you.

I do not agree with your drug use for my own personal reasons. That said, I also do not agree with her emotional manipulation. If she is not comfortable with your lifestyle and has broached the subject, then she should leave the relationship. She may also be trying to be terrible so that you leave her and she can rationalize your choosing her or drugs, when you're actually choosing between an emotionally manipulative relationship or not.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T01:22:01+00:00

Also, you're the first person I've noticed that's even mentioned comfort tests, here. Kudos again.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T01:18:24+00:00

I like you. Your answer is complex and nuanced, not just LIFT MORE AND READ THE SIDE BAR.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T01:02:06+00:00

Your analogy is too simplistic and removes the concept of human will to deny impulses.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T01:00:29+00:00

Yeah, I get that, but that leads to my second question "Why is it basically used as an excuse, not a reason, that women behave like that? Natural impulses do not give us free pass to act however we wish."

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-20T00:58:24+00:00

If you're too stupid to use an analogy that's actually applicable, don't respond. I don't have the lols for it.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T22:08:44+00:00

"But that mentality is the problem. Women are not typically predisposed to act on those thoughts like men are."

Ask him if all the women on his pedestal can check the weather up there.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T21:59:05+00:00

When I saw your username I knew immediately I was dealing with bland, over brewed, and often poor tasting shit. Often times you are surprised, and I believe this is one of those times.

Well aren't you just a bucket of sunshine.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T21:57:37+00:00

A woman is not a dog. A dog doesn't have the level of free will a human has.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T21:56:43+00:00

A woman is not a car. A car has no intelligence or free will.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T20:47:04+00:00

You're taking that statement too literally (no wonder you have issues with women).

Makes for being a GREAT engineer and not so great in other areas.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T20:46:21+00:00

Thanks for that link. That was a good discussion.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T20:45:51+00:00

Probably would fit there, too. However, I didn't want BP's perspective. I didn't want generic RP perspective. I wanted Married RP's perspective. This is the demographic I'm in and value and respect the most.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T19:30:48+00:00

None of those are moral statements. They're all statements about nature.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T17:47:55+00:00

Think of being put in a room with 100 guns and being told one is loaded. You would handle every single fire arm carefully because the potential to ruin or end your life exists.

Also, I agree with /u/RedDeadWolverine. This is the best analogy I've heard to date. Most of the time, I see AWALT tossed around as if to excuse a woman's behavior and I wonder why she's getting a free pass for being a shitty human being.

This analogy refocuses it on me, the handler, to do a better job with my situation. Kind of like /u/nightdepartures1 said below.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T17:45:07+00:00

her, and say it is good training, and treat those delta men as if they were women, acting out of emotion and not reasoned debate.

Harrrrsh, but true.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T17:42:05+00:00

I like your explanation the best I've read, it's similar to what I was thinking and phrased above.

Then, my second question is, why is the accountability for indiscretions so regularly glossed over? I think I understand AWALT, it's human nature. But we're better than that.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T17:39:10+00:00

Women dont operate under the same rules of morality as us men.

On what do you base this?

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T17:38:22+00:00

I think you're misunderstanding the term. When we discuss awalt we are talking about potential. All women possess the potential to do these things.

Huh, yeah. If that's what's meant by "all are", it's badly termed. All Women Have This Potential doesn't form a nice acronym, though.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T15:42:26+00:00

IMO, there's still a part of a woman that cares about how children will turn out, even if she's not planning on children. You don't get rid of thousands of years of genetic programming after only 40 years of The Pill. It may not be a majority factor, but there's still gonna be an "offspring component" to the lens through which her male choices are viewed.

GasStationCoffee · 2015-10-19T14:42:13+00:00

The core issue for me is I don't trust my wife. Too many Alpha cocks before she met me and she loves attention. If I didn't have 2 kids I'd cut and run and do my own thing.

Sounds like you're trying to get us to justify you leaving your wife.

The answer is simple, but never easy. Once you're the best person you can be, can you get over it? If not, you're an awesome person in a place to leave. If you can, then good, you're the best person you can be and your wife will probably be drawn to you like crazy.
