<p>I happened upon this article on Match.com when I logged into BuckyStars ATT wireless connect. Stupid landing pages, but hey what&#8217;s this? Usually I get annoyed that there&#8217;s a landing page in the first place. If I&#8217;m going onto the Internet at BuckyStars, its for damn sure I&#8217;m not looking to read their landing page. I mean really! What in tarnation could they possibly offer me that I would be interested in?</p>
<p>Well wouldn&#8217;t you know it just as I was hit my blog link all of a sudden I see a title that reads: <a href="http://www.match.com/magazine/article.aspx?articleid=5250&amp;TrackingID=525081&amp;BannerID=647854" target="_blank">How to prep your place for a date</a>. Of course I had to go back and read what they had to say. I mean usually most &#8220;advice&#8221; sites are going to emasculate men into believing they need to be little wussies with no balls to get the job done. In most instances its exactly why men need dating sites in the first place. They do not have the social skills to pick up a woman in a normal social environment. As in face to face meet up like a bar, club, book store, coffee shop what not.</p>
<p>I do believe I owe an entire other post to the other extreme where some men are acting out aggressive fantasies on blogs of who they wish to be. Reading some &#8220;field reports&#8221; you would have to believe the man in question to be a God to pull off some of the crap I&#8217;ve read. But I digress this discussion for another time.</p>
<p>So I want to review this Match.com article piece by piece.</p>
<p style="padding-left: 30px;"><span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Make your space look appealing to the opposite sex&#8230;</strong><br />
This applies especially to men, whose pads often resemble frat houses  filled with mountains of laundry, grime-covered sports gear and empty  beer bottles. First, clean up the mess — laundry in particular. “I’ve  always found that the scent of dirty, sweaty clothes permeates single  men’s apartments, so when I first visited my now-boyfriend Kevin’s  apartment, I was happy to see that he had a real laundry basket with a  lid,” says Esther, 31. No need to buy a whole new set of furniture —  folding a chenille blanket over the back of your austere leather sofa or  adding some flowers can do wonders. “When I first saw my boyfriend’s  place it was pretty unimpressive, but he had a vase of daffodils in the  living room, which made a difference,” says one 25-year-old who prefers  to remain anonymous. “It showed he knew how to make an effort and was  willing to do so for me.”</span></p>
<p>For the most part I would agree with this section of the article. However being well-versed in the scientific appeal of pheromones having sweaty clothing around can help you in many instances. You don&#8217;t need your nasty encrusted underwear around. While having a place for laundry and keeping your love lair clean it is also important to not make it sterile. I went over a friends house once and the place looked like it was devoid of any personality. It seemed like books and pictures were strategically hung and placed to bring up conversations. While normally this is a very good idea, these things need to have &#8220;VALUE&#8221; to you and not just be crap you read about in some PUA forum somewhere. Don&#8217;t get a book on magic or hypnosis or whatever unless it is something that you have read and are interested in. Another; don&#8217;t be a faker, woman can sense when all you are trying to do is impress them. While it might make an initial impression you are sure to be sleeping alone if that&#8217;s all its for. The impression should come from the interest it provokes, initially from the item, but the real interest should be directed towards you for being an interesting person for reading this to begin with.</p>
<p>I totally disagree with the flowers crap. What are you a freaking girl or a man? Holy freaking crap are you serious? Flowers? An interesting center piece is what you need. Get yourself some really cool art as a center piece, maybe some candles, scented if you really must cover the smell but remember your pheromones are important. Have a bowl with assorted items that have been left by other women. It&#8217;s a GREAT little &#8220;pre-selection&#8221; switch flipper when a woman sees an earing or thong, or a shoe in the bowl. Whats that, inevitably she will ask? Oh that&#8217;s the bowl with a sly smile and move on. I just asked the Barista Melissa at BuckyStars, a cute girl, what she would think if she walked in to see flowers on the table of a guy she is dating. Her response: &#8220;He&#8217;s either married or gay!&#8221; Come on guys, don&#8217;t be that guy. The chick who wants to remain anonymous who was impressed by the guy making an effort, most likely is the chick I&#8217;ll be doing later on tonight.</p>
<p><strong>Edit what’s on your bookshelves: </strong>And while you&#8217;re at it stash away your masculinity. When I read this I almost spit out my coffee and started cursing. Who the fuck wrote this crap anyway I asked? The by line reads Celeste Perron. Of course you should hide away all your books with beautiful women and interesting male articles in them. My God you wouldn&#8217;t want the woman over your apartment to think you look at other women. While you&#8217;re at it you might want to tie your dick and balls between your ass-cheeks and wear a dress! I mean God forbid you give her the idea you might be interested in hot bodies and women in lingerie. Isn&#8217;t it funny that whenever I have woman over they always pick up my copies of Maxim or FHM before anything else. It&#8217;s a damn good way to let you know if she might be interested in a little kinky threesome fun too.</p>
<p>The rest of it seems like OK for the most part, but holy BeJezus I can almost feel my masculinity ripping out of my soul and being dragged across the floor. Sometime in the future I&#8217;ll do an entire post dedicated to how you should hook up your apartment to make it into your very own Love Lair.</p>
<p>Rock on dudes!</p>

<p><FONT SIZE="3">This is a response to a post on PheroTalk Forum that I do not feel appropriate, for personal reasons, posting on the actual forum<br />
You may read the entire thread here: : <strong><a href="http://www.pheromonetalk.com/lounge/why-would-someone-do-am-i-33436.html">Why would someone do this? Am I bad person?</a></strong></p>
<p>My reply, is a direct reply to mark-in-dallas&#8217; post quoted below:<br />
<a href="http://www.pheromonetalk.com/lounge/why-would-someone-do-am-i-33436-11.html#post265363"><br />
</a></p>
<blockquote><p><a href="http://www.pheromonetalk.com/lounge/why-would-someone-do-am-i-33436-11.html#post265363">Darlin, I almost called Mara. I don&#8217;t think they hate me over there at this point, but I don&#8217;t know how much good it would have done either. She knows I&#8217;m here and knows that I&#8217;ve stayed neutral in the war, but I really don&#8217;t have any weight over there either.</a></p>
<p><a href="http://www.pheromonetalk.com/lounge/why-would-someone-do-am-i-33436-11.html#post265363">Mara is an awesome lady though, and you can tell her I said so! </a></p></blockquote>
<p>I&#8217;ve heard that as well Mark:). She sounds pretty cool and I wanted to check out the product there: <a href="http://www.lovepotionperfume.com/">LovePotionPerfume</a>. I was saddened when I got banned from her site for no reason. I mean, I didn&#8217;t even get a chance to post!</p>
<p>I thought it would be best to read up, just like I did on PheromoneTalk and every other forum I belong to, when I joined. I didn&#8217;t spoof my IP and used an email address that I clearly own so I wasn&#8217;t trying to hide anything. I certainly didn&#8217;t go there to try and rub someones nerves raw, like the thread I am responding to has broken down into.</p>
<p>When I got banned It didn&#8217;t surprise me one bit! People talk a great game about love and respecting one another and all the while they are secretly talking and plotting behind each others back and I certainly do NOT mean this happens only at one forum or the other. I was pissed off that someone would actually go to those lengths to watch who registers. All the posts and threads about lying and waiting to strike with masked IP&#8217;s, at LovePotionPerfume, well that did surprise me. I always have heard how loving, accommodating and well wishing everyone one is there. Please understand that in no way is this saying that it only happens over there. I mean really, just read the <a href="http://www.pheromonetalk.com/womens-pheromone-advice-tips-tricks/steveo-put-s-back-into-sexi-31907.html">SteveO put the S back into Sexi&#8230;</a> thread at PheromoneTalk and it certainly opens up eyes to the bad in some peoples hearts. Needless to say, yeah but I&#8217;m saying it anyway, that I was shocked and appalled at the ill-intent spewed at PheromoneTalk as well. I was pretty sure that I understood the rules at PheromoneTalk since I was always told to treat it like a party atmosphere. If it didn&#8217;t go at a party, it didn&#8217;t go there either. LOL, I&#8217;m not sure where some people go to party, but please don&#8217;t invite me if that&#8217;s the idea of a party.</p>
<p>When I mentioned the Laws Of Attraction (LOA) in a thread someone told me in private that they were told I didn&#8217;t know what I was talking about. Correct me if I&#8217;m wrong; what you think about and do most is EXACTLY what you attract into your life. If you think about, write about, plot about it, all the while doing the very same thing; you get exactly that back. Am I innocent and perfect? No, but at least I do not redefine the very meaning of what I say I believe in to suite the flavor of the day.</p>
<p>With that said, I could also understand why some people wanting to go off and start their own little private forum. I really hope it is a place that, in the Hosts own words:</p>
<blockquote><p>please be comfortable posting anything as you would like to, with only RESPECT to any and all involved.</p></blockquote>
<p>I wish them well. I do hope that I can myself join anonymously and post about those pheromone products I am currently unable to without bias. This leads me into my next point.</p>
<p>There seems to be a whole lot of conflicting information, or misinformation spreading. The more I read, the more I have to question the validity of MANY claims. All the marketing hype, all the underhanded deeds, all the hate-fueled words of anger and just pure evil is just bewildering to me. Michael Harris is talking about having to escape the USA, land of capitalism and apparently without room for pheromone research companies. I just don&#8217;t understand how other pheromone companies survive! He says innovation is a serious risk due to all the frivolous lawsuits, but this goes right back to my above paragraph on LOA. Clearly a company focusing all their efforts on a positive impact, of making the world a better place would have a place in this world. I don&#8217;t get it! I&#8217;m sure a man, that many would strive to elevate themselves just to get to his level, will be able to come up with a way to do business wherever he damn well pleases without fear of reprisal.</p>
<p>I guess in this world we live in though there are just some evil doers. I even remember hearing at least a few people I know who said <a href="http://junkyfungus.com/?p=253">my post about the tragic passing of David Carridine</a> was about them. Umm hello, if you believed it was about you, than you must have a very poor image of yourself or maybe it is you&#8230; Let me ease their minds: I was sad to hear about the &#8220;suicide death&#8221; of a childhood hero. There are so many influences of evil coming from every side its mind boggling. To think a man who seemed like he had life in the palm of his hand, without any known provocation or history of mental problems would one day, out of the blue, up and end his life. Very sad indeed. I urge those who still believe it is about them to seek emergency psychiatric help now.</p>
<p>Unfortunately I&#8217;ve learned there are way to many people being deceitful and spreading viscous rumors and the worse part about it: it all seems like its based on making a buck! When people don&#8217;t care who they hurt, how many lies they spread, who gets caught in the cross fire (mob mentality) it just goes to show you the level people will sink to. Look what Michael Harris said what someone did to Jasmin&#8217;s kids. That is just pathetic! I am a firm believer in the Golden Rule: Due onto others as you would have them due onto you.</p>
<p>Although I could never understand how it is to appreciate a mothers love for her children (I have personally witnessed Jasmin&#8217;s love for her children and there is not a question in my mind that she is an amazing mother) I also have experienced personal attacks and against my family, but I do NOT accept the victim mentality. I refuse to allow a horrible situation to dictate my life. My situation is VERY different from Jasmin&#8217;s though as hers revolve around her kids. My love and well wishes goes out to Jasmin, but more importantly her children. I was blessed to spend many hours with that baby girl and boy and they are just loved, loved, loved and as such are loving, loving, loving. With an ongoing investigation I will not say more, but I will close this paragraph out with a silent prayer to the good Lord that her issues are resolved and whomever the guilty is that they are punished accordingly.</p>
<p>Well its 3:34 A.M. and I&#8217;m just blabbering about all this, but jeez, we have all this fighting and paranoia going on against so many companies. It&#8217;s hard to fathom an entire industry made out of just downright bad people with just a very select couple that are trying to do the right thing, and even those are now getting low down and dirty. Customers are actually drawing lines in the sand claiming loyalty to one company over another, but the really scary thing is, since when is a company more important than the human element? Are we all getting dragged into a big shit storm of hatred being perpetrated by an evil manipulative hack, whose identity is hidden that is looking to destroy lives&#8211;all over greed? Scary to fathom an idea as such!</p>
<p>I&#8217;ve been repeatedly told how this guy and that guy are just horrible and because of my loyalty to APR perhaps I&#8217;ve been completely blinded as well. Now that&#8217;s not to say it isn&#8217;t the truth, but isn&#8217;t it my responsibility to find out that truth? I&#8217;ve always believed there are three sides to every story: Your side, His side, and somewhere in between the TRUTH. Please now, I can just hear those same evil doers in the world using this to stir up trouble. Oh junkyfungus is saying APR are liars. That is not what I am saying at all. I am using APR as an example, because I work there, but because I work there I must also identify it as my fierce loyalty to the point of a fault that I put a company and those who work along with me and the very clients as truth without even investigating for myself where the truth lies. It is a responsibility, especially when loyalty is involved, that I do seek out the truth for myself. I&#8217;m certain that I would find truth and though I firmly believe it will sway towards those I trust, it is the correct thing to do. I&#8217;m talking about following that very Law of Attraction myself and giving all their due benefit.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t really know someone is selling something they shouldn&#8217;t be, or that this molecule isn&#8217;t what they say it is. I am sure there are countless cries across the divide saying exactly the same thing about the other side. This all brings me right back to mark-in-dallas&#8217; post about Mara being a good person. I am sure Mara is a great person and her products look magical, I only wish I was afforded an opportunity to read the forum as anyone else would have been. Use your time wisely my friends, be happy and in the words of Chuck-D: don&#8217;t believe the hype.   </FONT></p>
