Women Are Abysmal Conversationalists

[Mana KnightParticipant 333]

Yep.
This thread.

I am so glad it was not just me. For these are my observations too.

I have Asperger Syndrome, so conversation is actually very hard for me to start up, but EVEN SO – with my ex, despite me being the one with communication problems, it was ME who had to start and carry conversations. I had to rack my brain to come up with topics in advance, as I knew she would have none.
Anything she did say was banal and trivial. It was always what some Aunt said, or her trip to a shop where she bought something that was marked down, so she “saved money”. (Never cottoned on that if she didn’t buy it, she would save more) .

It was me that stoked the fire for conversations of our world, other worlds, philosophy, religion, politics etc. Basically..stuff that goes on in the world.

She had none. And this wasn’t a one off. I see it time and time again. Women don’t have deep meaning conversations.
It is surface issues only.

Want intelligent chat? Speak to a man.

If you are learning a foreign language, I have heard other people recommend sticking around females as opposed to men. Their ¨conclusion¨ was that men are no good and will just sit around and drink, smoke, talk intermittently, mostly about sport. To play devil´s advocate, I can see some small benefits to this approach:

a) women around the world repeat mostly the same garbage so you more than likely already have a good handle on what they´re talking about
b) since they don´t shut up and keep repeating the same drivel, there is a better chance for language idiosyncrasies to be indoctrinated quickly

Of course the negatives include among the things already discussed in this thread are, well, being stuck speaking to a female. But for foreign language acquisition, this too fails at a cost benefit analysis because honestly which man wants to talk to a man who learnt their conversation repertoire from a woman. Despite ending up closer to the goal of understanding what is said in an other language, it is still the content that drives conversation.

If all you have to say in a foreign language is the crap a woman has taught you to say, well none of it will be able to be applied in the real world.

Some of it has to be rooted in their own solipsism. I remember once telling my mother that I don’t really like hanging out with civilians (this was years ago when I was still in the infantry) and she says “oh, so you don’t like your own mother?”

So “civilians”.

A group that includes everyone in Canada save for 100 000 people and a few thousand more retired vets.

Out of 30 million people.

And it’s about her.

They just don’t seem to have any real substance deep down. One thing I’ve noticed in my past relationships, the women simply never did anything. They couldn’t tell a joke, couldn’t tell a story, couldn’t come up with humorous memes, couldn’t come up with any random funny s~~~. Instead they all would end up copying me, my speech patterns, my accent, my memes, etc.

Oh wow, this is spot on. I have had so many exes use my material on other people esp their new partners and they claim it as their own.

I will tell you guys THE best one liner to use on women. It either p~~~es them off or makes them want to f~~~ you.

Man: “You know what I really love about you?” (Say it in a confident and flirtatious way)

Woman: “No what?” (Watch as she has this huge smile, bats her eyelids and flicks her hair)

Man: “Nothing!”

Then just walk away….seriously, it is priceless!

Report back on results *thumbs up*

It’s also the short, overweight cola drinking artsy dudes who hang around them alot as their friends who suck at conversation. Literally the most dull, one sided conversation I ever had was with one of them. Followed by a girl who i knew in real life who I added on facebook who would ignore the occasional facebook messages I sent while she was friendly enough in real life. But in a shallow way. Still rarely initiating conversation and just responding in basic ways. I had a female friend online for the longest time but even she doesn’t want to IM anymore and it’s only email now, and even then she doesn’t initiate anymore. If they aren’t keeping their heads down on their phones all the time, its as if they do the bare minimum.
