Daily, Plugs: Hanafuda and why women love men (1 Comment)

Before anything else, I wanna share with you HANAFUDA. A download link is available in that post. Please be aware in spite of it being a historical drama, it’s hentai and there’s bestiality. Nothing super gross though. ^_^

I was supposed to pimp my Golden Half, but I was browsing my Google Reader and saw that Paulo Coelho has a new post. ^_^ The topic is why women love men. He did a “research” on this in the internet. Let me quote a few of what he listed down:

We love men because they can’t fake an orgasm, even if they wanted to.

Because they will never understand us, yet even so they go on trying.

Because they still manage to see our beauty, even when we ourselves no longer believe it.

Because they are lovers who only rest when we have had (or pretend to have had) pleasure.

Because they manage to raise sport to something bordering on religion.

Because they insist on fixing things that are beyond their capacity, and dedicate themselves to this with the same enthusiasm as an adolescent, and get frustrated when they don’t succeed.

Because they are like pomegranates: most of them is impossible to digest, but the seeds are delicious.

Because we always know what they are thinking, and when they open their mouth they say exactly what we imagined they would.

Because they love to explore our body and conquer our soul.

Because a 14-year-old girl can leave them speechless, and a 25-year-old woman can tame them quite effortlessly.

Because they are always attracted by extremes: the opulent or the ascetic, warriors or monks, artists or generals.

Because they do absolutely everything possible to try to hide their weaknesses.

Because a man’s biggest fear is not being a man (it never crosses a woman’s mind not to be a woman).

Because they always eat everything on their plate, and don’t feel guilty about it.

Because they have shoulders where we can rest our heads and sleep without much effort.

Because they never lie about their age.

Because despite everything they try to demonstrate, they can’t live without a woman.

Because when we tell one of them “I love you”, they always ask us to explain exactly how.

He also posted a list of what men do not know about women. Some funny ones are:

3 – The same thing happens with “you are beautiful”. It takes less than two seconds to say these three magical words, which can change our nightmares into real fairy tales.

5 – At a party we are capable of scanning the whole room in less than a minute to find out what interests us. Just watch.

8 – Women always remember everything. If you ask when we met, none of us will say: “at a party”. We will say: “it was a Tuesday, right after a dinner where they served salad and chicken broth, and you were wearing a black blazer and designer shoes, and so on.

12 – We hate making love when we don’t feel like it, but we do it anyway, and you will never be able to notice the difference.

15 – Not all women want marriage and children. Many just want orgasms and pets.

(You can read his whole post here — I just had to share my Google Reader Shared Items. HAHA~)

My bf does a great job in “handling” my mood swings, so I guess he knows me well (given also the fact we’ve been together for some years)… Yet women, in general, will always be hard for men to figure out. *lol*

Goodies: Yotsubato! icons :D (2 Comments)

Since my internet was down for 6 days, one of the semi-productive things I did was to create icons. I’m posting this first because this is the largest set I’ve made for a series… And only from a volume at that. There are still more to come from the Yotsubato! manga. XD

*starts to wonder if an anime will ever come out*
