What Women Want

Listening to: The Sweet Escape – Gwen Stefani (and no I haven’t succumed but I really like this one)

They say aim to please. But how far?? How much of what you want to do is because other people demand it of you and it is just a subconscious act of pleasing?

For instance, can I wear my heart on my sleeve and do as I please if that’s what I feel like? Do I have a right to let someone know I am upset with their actions? Can I just let it go? Should I?

I get reeeeally pissy when I’m all PMS-like and most of this won’t make sense tomorrow. I go around in circles and just spout (In retrospect most of the stuff below is way overdue).

Example – I don’t think Women really know What they Want when they voted both Talha and Nicholl out in one week! (re: What Women Want is a Bachelor-like show that airs on 8tv on Thursdays at 10.30pm). I think Christian and Sham are far more ninny then Tal and Nic. Less cute too. So… what? Are they looking at substance then? What – the panel of judges think it’s far more worthy of a guy (Sham) to leave his teammate(Christian) stranded in a jungle when the rest of the guys worked together?

I think intentionally leaving someone in the damned jungle and not bothering enough to really look for him is grounds enough for elimination. It shows disrespect, selfishness and just an all round non-caring attitude. Instead they keep both the leaver and the leavee and eliminate Talha and Nic for not being romantic enough the following week??!??

Let me tell you something; I would rather have a man who was caring and attentive and loyal than a man who would serenade me with flowers and chocolates from my below my balcony every day and then leave me to be mauled by Taman Negara tigers. Thank you very much.

Do you know what I believe is the main problem with What Women Want? The women who vote for what they believe are the best men for the job every week are a panel of judges who, every single week, come across as being pretty frustrated women. The men are human, for goodness sakes, so they’re not perfect but don’t interrogate them like bound captives! Some of them are pretty nice men.

Maybe it’s the aim of the show to have judges that are firm about the way guys should act and stuff but I believe that it’s okay to make it light and humour infused and still get your point across. Believe it or not, all guys don’t automatically know how to act in order to please a woman. And sorry fellow women, but because of the diffuse amount of overly romanticised material we read and watch on TV we have a fixed stereotype of the Perfect Man. Heads up, he doesn’t exist. Note, and neither does the Perfect Woman.

Maybe the panel has such an interrogative style because it’s better for the ratings (re: the Simon Cowell type judging style) and maybe I’m just upset because my favourite two are out but I still think voting two men out in one week for not being romantic enough is hardly a reason. Moving on.

So I missed last week’s show because I didn’t believe it was worth watching with two of my main men gone but curiosity got the best of me this week and apparently Christian got eliminated. Can anyone update me as to why?

My favourite pick to win is Hafiz – he’s sweet. And Charles is rather dishy . Okay Sham’s alright too but not my favourite. I can’t be biased in favour of Tal and Nic…I hope none of them get one of the judges as a twist surprise prize though. The judges seem pissy enough. They (the guys) should hold out for Hannah T (the host) – she’s hot.

Righto, sorry for the pissy entry.

And for using the word ‘pissy’ one time too many. :-S

I’m off to watch What Women What! (sigh it always gets the best of me)

Update: Sham got eliminated. Hafiz & Charles are in the final two. *big smiles everyone*
