Great psychological questions answered

davywavyAs I'm sure you know, that great thinker Sigmund Freud once threw aside his cigar in a fit of pique and cried out "Mein Gott!" (He spoke German, you see), "Donner und Blitzen! Sturm und Drang! Hansel und Gretel! What does a woman want!?"
It's a question which has tormented menfolk for centuries - what the devil do girls want? So, in a flash of inspirational genius, I've decided to try a tactic which no man has ever tried before when finding out what girls want: I'm going to ask them.
Now I know the scientists amongst you may be quailing at this strategy. "Don't do it, David!" You're crying, even as I type. "No good will come of it! That way madness lies!" but my course is set. I'm going to turn thousands of years of male/female relations on their heads by actually asking girls what it is they want.
Naturally, you can trust me to use my new-found knowledge only for good, and keep the results fairly secret-ish, and so the identities of respondents will be kept quiet. If you're a boy, you can answer the quiz too - that way I can compare what girls actually want and what boys think they want, and see if they tally up. So, tell me all. It's in the name of science.
I'm sure Francis Bacon is beaming down on me from heaven, nudging Freud and muttering "I bet you wish you'd had an LJ now, eh, Sigmund old boy?"

And God help him if I catch him looking at someone else's breasts.
(Okay, that last isn't really true, but I figured I'd play into it. :P)

Re: You forget a rather key female need
Date: 2005-11-09 10:44 pm (UTC)We just need significant others who understand our requirement to put cold bits under their armpits, against the small of their back, and between their toasty warm thighs.
