    I'd have to say I dont fully take advantage of it but I do in ways that Im un-aware of it. If that make sense

    sure i flirt with guys but i usually use my personality more than body movements. I seriously dont have enough confidence nor do I find it sexy in a way

    and I would never do it to get the work I want. thats silly imo and I only got the job for my looks and manipulative ways

    only time i take it to the advantage would be in the bedroom :eek:

    Have I used my sex to my advantage? Oh absolutely. Works like a charm. I've got the act down pat. ;)

    I use my masculinity to my advantage every chance I get. It's a tool like any other. Hell, Obama used what he could to get elected. If we went on merit alone, you may never get your "break"

    i agree!

    sadly this is the way the world works, and shyness or hesitation will get you NOWHERE. Use what youve got.

    There is no punishment for using your masculinity. For a woman, there is (even if they are used to it). It's hypocritical to assume we're on the level. Women are sneaky because they have to be in order to survive. We don't. We can afford to lay our cards on the table and neither be raped, nor stigmatized, nor earn less.

    By using your masculinity you probably mean aggression? That's very different than using femininity which is passive-aggression.

    Were I a woman, I would do everything to avoid it. Much like I try not to make use of male intimidation against women unless I have to (i.e., when they are being passive-aggressive against me).

    I just dont understand using my sex as an advantage to get things. I think thats a cheap, sleazy way to get things.

    I'd laugh if a man was showing off his pecs to impress me, sure ill be impress but that wont win my heart

    Makes me laugh when women who turn manipulation into a way-of-life act like prostitution is sooooo wrong. Maybe that's why; because it's too close to home.

    I use to be very manipulative growing up but I found that it got me nowhere so I changed but i laugh at girls who try to get sexy to get something when they're a size negative zero and have nothing to show off :rolleyes:

    That's the other reason why the whole concept is twisted. Got all these girls trying to adapt their behavior and appearance to some pathetic unreachable norm, just so they can get the breadcrumbs of the real earning and political power of males.

    I just dont get it. It wouldnt be any accomplishment to me. Its disrespecting yourself and I tell ya, thats the worst feeling to have

    now natural flirts are fine...some people just have that personality a guy really likes but when it comes down to using your body, thats when I disagree and its sad because i see SO many do it and just dont care

    Some say I objectify myself by using my sexuality to get things from men, but I like to think I make men look like fools by taking advantage of their weaknesses. Here's the facts: I'm a webcam girl, I make $60 + per hour doing shows, and I'm selling an intangible product that costs me nothing but a little time. What I call smart, others call slutty. Of course the guys don't get bashed for encouraging stripping by looking at porn, but I'm a whore for showing my tits. I don't care though. I'm an intelligent, hard working woman pursuing higher education. I just make a little spare cash with a secret side gig.

    i accidentally use it. meaning, i dont plot against men or expect them to do me favors, but they just happen to, so hey, thats cool with me.

    ive noticed silly stuff like when u're in traffic and u're waiting til someone lets u drive past them, if its a man behind the wheel and u smile at them, they'll let u go.
    or, if u're in trouble, men will flock around u and offer help, more than they would if u were a man.

    i think being a woman has advantages yea, and even the most feminist girl ever has to notice that.

    the accomplishment is conquering someone who is weaker than you, and getting some sort of gain for it. How is it disrespecting yourself? if anything its the opposite; its using your skills and strength.
    I can understand how girls who aren't so pretty/flirty/ attractive/charming would be against it since they can't get away with it (as easily), but if you got it, flaunt it! more power to you!

    To Say We do not see it for what it is, is kinda far fetched. I Know when you girls are useing it to your advantage.

    However sometimes to me its worth giveing into it, and find it more a enlightment then anything else at the time.

    Good example would be comic con last week that I was at. Obviously the place has plenty of areas with "Booth Babes". Beginning of which I ignored due to the obvious reasons of catching things as they went on. (Place was a nightmare to get around in and see all the panels and exclusive events) However when things lulled out and increaseingly tired, The eye catch and giveing in to it was worth what ever small things they where trying to sell or give out.

    Now if it was like, you wanted all this labor done and a multitude of things.. It will not work =P.

    I would think lots of manipulative women are too dense and self-absorbed to understand that a lot of the time men "humor" women due to their supposed inferiority.

    They think instead that men can never spot manipulation, which in my experience is false in the vast majority of cases.

    :confused: it doesnt have to deal with that. Some girls have morals and smarts to get what they want, and if they have a hot bod...,more power to em but to act like they dont need to use their body to get what they want, its WAY sexier

    when a 'HOT BOD' woman interacts with a man without the man starting the conversation automatically starts alarm bells ringing inside their heads to be very careful - men are not stupid in the vast amounts of cases - they do think 'if its too good to be true ....' type of thing
