Thinking...as usual
Well...er...I'm going to go watch Macbeth tonight with my English class.
"Who kills a man kills a reasonable creature, but he who destroys a good book kills reason itself." John Milton Aereopagitica, 1644
Kinda random quote...I was staring at my book trying to think of something interesting to say, and this was on the book mark.
Maybe it's just me, or I'm being unparallely unreasonable with myself. I have a most terrible feeling about the up-and-coming ball. I haven't paid for the tickets yet, but I feel so hesistant about it. I did mention this feeling to a friend but she's rather...excitable...and only insisted that I should go.
I never wanted to go that badly, it's just that my dad did all the shopping for me without really asking.
--------
If you're interested to know, the book I was staring at is about psychology. It talked about a trend about the kind of personality people looked for in a partner, and I'd have to say, I'm rather inclined to agree.
It was saying how people generally fit into three dominance levels.
-high dominance (tendency to be promiscuous and experimentative)
-medium dominance (might have a high libido, experimentation limited and usually a 'one-man woman'
-low dominance (tended to feel sex is disgusting and preferred admiration from a distance for a long time before actual contact is made)
Basically, depending on how dominant you are, you'll look for people in the same dominance level as you. Generally women went for men who were slightly more dominant but not in the higher levels because they found it frightening.
Men didn't go for women a level below their dominance because they find it's too easy to get their way so the sense of conquest is lost. Vice versa for women.
I've noted the concept fairly vaguely but it really makes sense. It makes a lot more sense once you start dating too, mostly the reason I've been thinking about this is because I remembered how much people were asking what I wanted from a guy.
After much consideration before I learnt this new concept I honestly had no idea.
Now I realize, I do like confident guys, confident/dominant enough to try pick a fight with me. That, I don't know why, but...it just made sense. Seriously though, I find the less dominant male...wussy to put it bluntly. They may be nice and all, but they're weak and somewhat of an insult to my own personal sense of pride(?)control(?)...can't think of the exact word right now.
It would just be nice to have someone who'll challege my 'authority'.
---------
Anyway, thanks for the sympathy in relation to yesterday's rather...tiresome events and I'll just stop rambling and go eat before I have to go to the play.
