Conversation with the GGs

[mysteryUser]

back to guy mode for a little bit.

When on a night out, how easy to you find it to chat to the opposite gender (i.e. in a big group, where your meeting new people). Generally I find it easer then chatting the the guys most times, and this can often end up with some friends thinking I'm trying to pull.

While I'll admit this is true some of the time, a lot of the time its just chat. Are any of you like this? or is it something to to with my upbringing of being included in adult conversation when i was younger, coupled with being brought up by my mum?

I've always been more confortable talking with women. Just how I am I guess. On Facebook, something like 70% of my friends are women. :)

Not only do I find it easier, but just so natural to chat, talk, converse, or whatever you want to call it, with ladies.
I don't know anything about professional sports, and as for cars, I turn the key and aim it, which is all I need to know. It just is so right for me.

I've always been more comfortable with women. One on one I can have a conversation with anyone.

For example at a meal the other i was at with a group of people most of who i had known for 2+ years, there were 2 new GGs there, I spent most of the meal speaking to this one GG, which was a good 3 hours, follow by chatting to her and her friend in the pub afterwards in the pub for a couple more hours.

Great night, beats trying to find something to chat with to guys. Fair enough we were mostly talking about our experiences and stuff we have done. (I have a interesting childhood lets say).

(I would be lying If i said i didn't want to see a friendship develop there). Guess we will see as time goes on, sadly these things don't always work out well for me for one reason or another.

Men..... Much easier for me to chat with men.:)

I guess its more I enjoy chatting about some of my past, and some of theirs rather then football, cars, sports.

Coming from a blended family with 8 kids and being the only boy it comes natural to me. What's funny is at work there are two GG's that are very athletic, both have boyfriends and they always are the ones bringing up sports to talk about unlike the lazy do nothing gamers with glazed eyes rambling about the high score they beat the night before. Speaking of sports its time for the game. ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!!!!!

I don't socialise all that much, but I would say that most of the time, i will talk to a girl before talking to a guy.

At work, I would talk with the girls more, and enjoy their company than the guys, but that's possibly also because I'm the only male in the region that does the job I do (dominated by females).

At a party or whatever, generally again more chatting to girls, but nearly always as a friend, hardly ever on the pull....

I also find it easier to mingle with the women in a large group. My wife even comments at PTA meetings and other school functions I get along better with the other women than she does. At work I also tend to be friends with the women. That could be that over the years I have worked in a number of department where there were mostly women. Maybe that has led to the deeper development of my feminine side.

So much here makes us think about why we are what we are.

[Intertwined]

Me too, part because of my Gender Identity, part, I was raised by, and around all women, there were very few male figures in my life, and the few that were, were BAD examples of male figures.

[SuzanneBender]

When my wife and I have several couples that we hang out with. When we have a party or go out socially I somehow always migrate to the be with the women. I have more in common it seems. Hmm go figure.


Speaking of sports its time for the game. ROCK CHALK JAYHAWK!!!!!l:hugs:

GO KU! Beak em' Hawks!

I can talk to both males and females when I am in male or femme mode. I prefer to talk with women because of my natural attractions to them. But lacking a good female victim, I do not hesitate to talk to the nearest guy. It is so much fun and I always get good reactions and better conversations.

When I am at an event or dating a new lady, the minute they mention something about shopping, clothing and shoes I just slip into girl mode and start talking about feminin things. Can't help it. Boy is it hard to give that first masculin impression somtimes. Especially when your trying to impress a new lady. I really have to watch my Ps and Qs, LOL. I really do like talking to women more than men, as someone else just said, Go figure. LOL. Today at the deli counter at my local market (In guy mode) I started up a conversation wih a nice lady that I have never met before, we started talking about all the good food under the counter and the next thing I know there was about 6 of us, well one guy (me) and 5 other women just gabbing away about what we were going to fix for dinner that night. I think I slipped into girl mode but the other women just gabbed right along with me and it was great fun, I even ask one of them if she was married and she said yes she was, I said ah NUTS all the good ones are taken and she laughed, I think I made her day.

I'd say this is never black or white with me but I can relate to and talk to women with more ease than men in most instances.

[wanda jackson]

When it comes to social situations with people I don't know, I prefer talking to women. It's just more comfortable, much more preferable.

[Mirani]

A generalisation, I know. But still has an element of truth to it.

Men compete in a conversation often interupting before someone has finished their point. Trying to impress by knowing more, having a better experience )often exagerating), displaying their knowledge. Talk about themselves (but not their feelings).

Women participate in conversations. Take turns. Listen. Enquire about the other person, share feelings.

On the phone, men pass messages, women have a converstaion.

Only a thought - not claiming it is true for all! Just my experience.

[mysteryUser]

I find it even easer when in a group, or a party when meeting a new GG, learning something about their life, and letting them know a little about mine, and trying to relate where possible. (hobbies, travel, past plans, future plans).

Ok, I can chat and hold down a convo with any guy who can keep off talking about football. If thats all they can talk about then no chance.

[renee k]

I gravitate towards women, and can easily talk with them. I'm not big into sports, except hockey. ( Red Wings, Karen, not birds that swim)
