“I would never sleep with you even if you were the last man on earth!”
Ladies usually say this during the process of rejecting a man’s courtship…
This week I will invert the normal, logical, order of any text by concluding first: it’s rubbish; it is all rubbish! Ladies should take heed of what they tell men when declining their offer, cause they never know when the Universe will make them swallow their own words…
Jane was an educated young lady. One day she decided to go on an exploratory trip to Africa; but she didn’t expect her plane to crash. When she opened her eyes she found herself all alone in the middle of the jungle. She was afraid…what if nobody would ever find her? She starts thinking about her warm king-size bed, the shampoos and conditioners she left behind, the depilation wax, Internet…she’s in the middle of her thoughts when suddenly a tall, hairy man (who seemed to have never bathed in his life), speaking the language of apes scared the bloody hell out of her. He felt like he needed to protect her; his mate (the Prince ape) told him that she looked like him (she should mother his offspring). Weeks go by and as crazy as it may seem Jane fell in love with the man she named Tarzan, after making him go through the endearing experience of cutting his toe nails for the very first time in his life…they had kids.
If Jane were back home and came across Tarzan (a hairy individual proficient in the language of apes), and he’d feel the need to protect her…what would her words be (even though he wouldn’t get them)? “I would never sleep with you even if you were the last man on earth!”…. Yet in the jungle…
Four accountants are scheduled to fly from Los Angeles to S. Paulo to audit the Brazilian branch of the company they work for.
When entering the private jet Phoebe realises that inside are Jeff (her buddy), Paul (her cousin) and Chuck (a short, chubby, ugly, squinted eyed, red-haired guy who always threw himself all over her); she rolls her eyes and sits next to Chucky Boy. As the plane takes off, he starts throwing his usual lines at her (all so near her left ear). In a low tone of voice she retorts, “Listen, Chuck; why don’t you quit, huh? You and I will never happen…I’d never sleep with you even if you were the last man on earth! We are not compatible!” squinted eyes looks deeply into her eyes and cuts the air with a sharp laughter “we’ll see, doll; if I were you I wouldn’t bet all my chips on it!”
Flying over the Amazon forest the jet starts having problems…the engines stop…the plane is going down so fast that nobody has time to do whatsoever…the plane crashes in the heart of the jungle.
Phoebe opens her eyes and starts calling for her cousin and buddy to see if they’re all right “I’m fine, doll! Thanks for asking!”…She rolls her eyes [“I can’t believe this!”]. Next day she wakes up and sees a shelter, a campfire and Chuck working on some herbs with a dead animal next to him. Phoebe observes Chucky boy, her surroundings, and realises how virile he is…weeks go by and she feels more and more attracted to the man who is more than an ugly and boring accountant: he is also a survivor! She can’t control her yearn for him any longer so she makes a move at Chuck…and touch down!
When an Indian tribe finds them, Phoebe is bearing Chuck’s child…
Now, in Los Angeles, where beautiful and hot men abound, Charles is nothing but an ugly duck; but in the middle of nowhere he’s the man most women are looking for…

I believe love and attraction are a choice. Science has proven that a person can be conditioned to be attracted to anything. Maybe the reason that Chuck is so attractive in the Amazon forest is because "society" isn't there to disapprove of him.
ReplyDeleteHey D!
ReplyDelete"I believe love and attraction are a choice. Science has proven that a person can be conditioned to be attracted to anything." - karmic relationships could be another reason why some people feel attracted to people one would never expect them too.
"Maybe the reason that Chuck is so attractive in the Amazon forest is because "society" isn't there to disapprove of him." - indeed, it may be one of the reasons, yes. It could also be added that Phoebe isn't distracted by a shallow society that perhaps imposes a certain concept of beauty and finally had the courage to admit what she knew all along...
Delirious, thank you so much for your comment; it is always a pleasure to exchange ideas with you :).
Cheers
Max,
ReplyDelete"This week I will invert the normal, logical, order of any text by concluding first: it’s rubbish; it is all rubbish! Ladies should take heed of what they tell men when declining their offer, cause they never know when the Universe will make them swallow their own words…"
Is this a sexual reference? ;D
"She starts thinking about her warm king-size bed, the shampoos and conditioners she left behind, the depilation wax, Internet"
That's so me.
"…she’s in the middle of her thoughts when suddenly a tall, hairy man (who seemed to have never bathed in his life), speaking the language of apes scared the bloody hell out of her."
ROFL. (tears of laughter) She probably really thought of her hair removal cream then.
"...after making him go through the endearing experience of cutting his toe nails for the very first time in his life…they had kids."
Thank God she made him cut them. She could have been mutilated with those toe nails.
Are you saying that Jane had jungle fever? I agree, she wouldn't have given him a second look if she saw him in her environment (as he was initially). However after a shave, a haircut, a Hugo Boss suit a little HM cologne and a single stem rose in his hand, he may have been irresistible?
This story has so many complexities. We are initially attracted to someone because of their looks, but when we get to know them they may turn out to be selfish and vain creatures who only care about the mirror. On the other hand, men like Chuck have to work harder to catch a woman's eye. He has to crash land and prove his other qualities. He offers security and wherewithal, while the handsome man with the dynamite smile and six pack perishes under the harsh conditions because he can't survive without his hair gel and moisturizer.
I find that women don't mind looks as much as men mind the looks of their women. For many men equate beauty with physical attraction - woman equate beauty with wallet attraction.
Btw, are Chuck and Chucky one in the same? They both have red hair.
One thing is for sure, it's a jungle out there.
Great post my dear.
Tarzan & Jane Cheers
Max;
ReplyDelete“karmic relationships”
LOL LOL LOL LOL
Nice historical contrast. In the process, you made me glad that I am married.
ReplyDeleteAlexys, Hello!
ReplyDelete"Is this a sexual reference? ;D" - LOL LOL LOL that was a good one lol *nodding*....
"That's so me." - lol this one is so many women lol :)...
"ROFL. (tears of laughter) She probably really thought of her hair removal cream then." - LOL I confess that even I laughed like crazy as I wrote this part *nodding*...LOL LOL her hair removal cream would've been useful, indeed LOL..
"Thank God she made him cut them. She could have been mutilated with those toe nails." - LOL can you imagine Tarzan brushing his feet against her legs with his long nails? When her hair removal cream stock would finish, she could use his nails as a razor LOL...
"Are you saying that Jane had jungle fever? I agree, she wouldn't have given him a second look if she saw him in her environment (as he was initially)." - she had hormone fever, no doubt about that...
"However after a shave, a haircut, a Hugo Boss suit a little HM cologne and a single stem rose in his hand, he may have been irresistible?" - I love Hugo Boss suits, although I prefer Armani's. But anyway, most men look good in a suit; however if their soul isn't good and their brain is smaller than a pea, there is no designer suit that can make me want to check them out..."yet in the jungle" LOL...
"This story has so many complexities.We are initially attracted to someone because of their looks, but when we get to know them they may turn out to be selfish and vain creatures who only care about the mirror." - indeed, it is a complex story (under the humourous parts). I totally hear you on this one. It is so sad when that happens: you look at a man who looks quite "delicious" [lol] and once you get to know him...he reveals himself to be such a disappointment (his conversation is shallow, he thinks he is more good looking than you, and after looking at him for a while you realise he is androgenous) *nodding*.
"On the other hand, men like Chuck have to work harder to catch a woman's eye. He has to crash land and prove his other qualities. He offers security and wherewithal, while the handsome man with the dynamite smile and six pack perishes under the harsh conditions because he can't survive without his hair gel and moisturizer." - Chuck is that typical ugly yet rather interesting man. You got him right: he offers security and wherewithal. LOL LOL yeah, metrosexuals don't last under harsh conditions, God forbid that they would run out of hair gel and moisturizer lol...
"I find that women don't mind looks as much as men mind the looks of their women. For many men equate beauty with physical attraction - woman equate beauty with wallet attraction." - I agree that women do not look for physical beauty in men (there are so many factors of selection for them). Wallet attraction? LOL LOL I liked this one LOL...
"Btw, are Chuck and Chucky one in the same? They both have red hair." - LOL LOL I confess I thought of Chucky, but no..Chuck is sweeter than Chucky.
"One thing is for sure, it's a jungle out there." - The best line ever in "Maude", did you watch that sitcom (in the 80's)? She used to tell her husband "Walter, it's a jungle out there!" lol....
"Great post my dear." - thank you so much, darling *bowing*!
And I would like to thank you for this awesome comment; it was quite entertaining ;D!
Hugo Boss Cheers
Max,
ReplyDelete"...can you imagine Tarzan brushing his feet against her legs with his long nails? When her hair removal cream stock would finish, she could use his nails as a razor LOL..."
Indeed. She would have also has a stock of band-aids and gauze pads in her night stand drawer.
"...she had hormone fever, no doubt about that..."
Did you know that when women are ovulating that they are more amorous?
"...most men look good in a suit; however if their soul isn't good and their brain is smaller than a pea, there is no designer suit that can make me want to check them out..."yet in the jungle" LOL.."
I agree.
"...you look at a man who looks quite "delicious" [lol] and once you get to know him...he reveals himself to be such a disappointment (his conversation is shallow, he thinks he is more good looking than you, and after looking at him for a while you realise he is androgenous)."
Oh, I despise shallowness and poor conversation skills.
"...metrosexuals don't last under harsh conditions, God forbid that they would run out of hair gel and moisturizer lol..."
What's up with that whole metrosexual movement? Men are so confused. Do they want to be women or men? Pick a team and play.
"One thing is for sure, it's a jungle out there." - The best line ever in "Maude", did you watch that sitcom (in the 80's)? She used to tell her husband "Walter, it's a jungle out there!" lol....
I did watch Maude. Bea Arthur was so scary. Almost like a drag queen.
Brioni Cheers
Lol, Max, I'm so glad I'm already married as well, games people play.
ReplyDeleteHey Max, great post as always, and great points. It just tells you a lot how much we are attracted to the material or look of people, instead who they really are and don't give a time to get to know them. Chuck may have acted like that because surroundings thought him to do that, but deep down he is who he is. Today, we underestimate lot of things about others, we get to know someone - let say for two weeks and we think we know them, we choose to hang around popular individuals and later to find out its all fake, we ignore those who are almost invisible, and yet to find how nice these people are. Its all us, that is why sometimes, we have to take time and let time tell, or take off the shield. I would like to say too we need to open our eyes more, but I think we need to clean what obstructing our eyes more so we can see better. You know Max, the blogging is a good learning experience, to get to know people not by their look or their talks, because through blogging they can only write so much, there is no sound, there is no voice, just plain black on white words that actually can tell us a lot about the person. Thanks Max for bringing this interesting point again, Anna :)
ReplyDeleteLS,
ReplyDeleteLOL LOL That one was for you, I confess...it was beyond my control LOL LOL!
Scott,
ReplyDeleteThank you, my friend :) *bowing*!
"In the process, you made me glad that I am married." - LOL LOL I hear you...
Thanks for having dropped by, buddy :).
Cheers
Alexys,
ReplyDelete"Indeed. She would have also has a stock of band-aids and gauze pads in her night stand drawer." - LOL LOL LOL you know!? *nodding*...
"Did you know that when women are ovulating that they are more amorous?" - yes, I know...during PMS the female body tells men "get the hell away from me!" during ovulation the body (all mellow) says "honey, I wanna make babies!"...
"Oh, I despise shallowness and poor conversation skills." - it is such a turn off :(. You see a gorgeous man, your mind starts imagining a million of things and then when he opens his mouth...(in your mind you listen to Black eye peas singing "Just shut up, shut up...")...
"What's up with that whole metrosexual movement? Men are so confused. Do they want to be women or men? Pick a team and play." - I don't get the metrosexual movement; I think that they want to compete with us but don't quite know how to...it is so sad! I am with you: pick a team and play.
"I did watch Maude. Bea Arthur was so scary. Almost like a drag queen." - LOL LOL yeah, indeed *nodding*. But that sitcom made us laugh...
Gucci Cheers
Hey Bob,
ReplyDeleteLOL I hear you, I definitely hear, my friend :).

Hey Anna,
ReplyDelete"great post as always, and great points." - thank you, darling; you are too kind *bowing*!
"It just tells you a lot how much we are attracted to the material or look of people, instead who they really are and don't give a time to get to know them." - indeed, that was the main message, Anna *bowing*! :)
"Chuck may have acted like that because surroundings thought him to do that, but deep down he is who he is.

I hear you, my friend. We should just allow ourselves to go beyond appearances, and interact with everybody (regardless how they look, how they talk, and whom they keep society with)...I love people, and I interact with all kinds of people (they are such an interesting book).
"I would like to say too we need to open our eyes more, but I think we need to clean what obstructing our eyes more so we can see better." - true, so true...society has blurred our sight and mind...so sad *nodding*.
"You know Max, the blogging is a good learning experience, to get to know people not by their look or their talks, because through blogging they can only write so much, there is no sound, there is no voice, just plain black on white words that actually can tell us a lot about the person." - I agree with you, blogging forces us to reach people's soul, feelings, to read their mind...without being hindered by their looks, social status, age, religion, nationality etc.
"Thanks Max for bringing this interesting point again," - *bowing*....you're welcome :).
Thank you, my dear friend, for your delightful comment...always so precious :D!
Cheers
I wonder if I need to stay in the jungle to meet my adorable Jane!
ReplyDeleteThey say that love is blind, but it doesn't work for me :o(
Love is so complicated! :o)
Cheers!
lovely reading this post...love is one thing so strong, which can really make you do anything & the feelings are just wonderful...the choice perhaps just changes from person to person....have a nice time!
ReplyDeleteHello Cidão!
ReplyDelete"I wonder if I need to stay in the jungle to meet my adorable Jane!" - LOL LOL I am sure you will find your adorable Jane, you Brazilian Tarzan ;)....
"They say that love is blind, but it doesn't work for me :o( " - they are lying...love is not blind; people are!
"Love is so complicated! :o)" - you think so? Hmmm...I must give some thought to this... :)
Thanks for your comment, Cidão (amei) :D!
Cheers
Hey Kalyan,
ReplyDelete"lovely reading this post" - thank you *bowing*!
"...love is one thing so strong, which can really make you do anything & the feelings are just wonderful..." - indeed; love can change one's vision of the world; it can change one's entire life! Love is one powerful feeling, and I totally recommend it :D!
"the choice perhaps just changes from person to person....have a nice time!" - I hear you, my friend; I hear you. Thank you :D! Have a nice time yourself..
Loved your meaningful comment as always, K :D!
Cheers
Hi! Great story with a lesson for all of us. You can't judge a book by its cover.
ReplyDeletePhysical beauty is certainly a plus but for those not so glamerous you don't always have to look below the first layer of skin to know that they're just the same as the good looking ones.
Both require love and attention, both love to give love and attention. In the end both blossum with it or die unhappy without it.
Beauty is in the eye of the beholder so they say. Sorry to coin another phrase.
Take Care!
Peter
Hi, Max! I loved this post, and I'd love to share what I think. :)
ReplyDeleteYou're right about ladies should be very careful with what they respond to the men, but then again, I think sometimes, in some cases it's just a matter of speech.
I'd like to comment on the 2nd scenario... Do you think that it will always end up with the woman attracted to the man she rejected before in a jungle? In my opinion, no matter where, whether it's in the jungle or not, if Phoebe gets the chance to see the true personality of Chuck at the first place, she will still find the attractions in him.
However, we don't know the good sides of Chuck till that fateful crash. The surroundings may or may have not changed him. Let's say if Chuck is still the same person as what he was while on the plane and still bug Phoebe with his 'usual lines', do you think Phoebe will bear his child?
It's true that a good looking face is an advantage to get the opposite sex's attention, but along the way, no matter how good looking the person is, still the inner beauty that counts. I'm sure most of us have experienced it. :)
Peter, Hello!
ReplyDelete"Great story with a lesson for all of us. You can't judge a book by its cover." - absolutely, mate :D!
"Physical beauty is certainly a plus but for those not so glamerous you don't always have to look below the first layer of skin to know that they're just the same as the good looking ones." - I totally hear you, Peter....
"Both require love and attention, both love to give love and attention. In the end both blossum with it or die unhappy without it." - this is beautiful!!! I am nearly speechless *bowing*!
"Beauty is in the eye of the beholder so they say. Sorry to coin another phrase." - indeed, indeed... :D
Peter, my dear friend, thanks for your kind and wise words...I think I am getting too attached to them, week after week :D!
Cheers
Hello Crystal!!!
ReplyDeleteIt is so good to see you here :D!
"I loved this post, and I'd love to share what I think. :)" - thank you, and please do share your thoughts with us *bowing*...
"You're right about ladies should be very careful with what they respond to the men, but then again, I think sometimes, in some cases it's just a matter of speech." - lol lol I see what you mean...so do you think they say what they say to men, just to tease them?
"Do you think that it will always end up with the woman attracted to the man she rejected before in a jungle? In my opinion, no matter where, whether it's in the jungle or not, if Phoebe gets the chance to see the true personality of Chuck at the first place, she will still find the attractions in him." - but perhaps in the city Chucky wouldn't have the chance to show his male skills to Phoebe. Perhaps Phoebe would be too distracted to notice the true Chuck...who knows....
"However, we don't know the good sides of Chuck till that fateful crash. The surroundings may or may have not changed him. Let's say if Chuck is still the same person as what he was while on the plane and still bug Phoebe with his 'usual lines', do you think Phoebe will bear his child?" - true, the crash was the catalyst to see the "Good Chuck" lol. No, the surroundings didn't change him, it rather exposed that side of him that is so appealing in a man. LOL Phoebe will bear his child, cause she now has the hots for the virile Chuck.
You know, some men do not know how to throw lines...Chuck is one of them. The most interesting thing is that he managed to get Phoebe with no words at all...only actions (building the shelter, working on the herbs and killing the animal for them to eat).
"It's true that a good looking face is an advantage to get the opposite sex's attention, but along the way, no matter how good looking the person is, still the inner beauty that counts. I'm sure most of us have experienced it. :)" - absolutely, Crystal! Oh, I am sure we all have, girl :D!
Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts, girl; I loved them...! Your contribution is most valuable *bowing*!
Cheers
God bless you Max. Circumstances can change things dramatically. Also, women do not realize how FRAGILE a man's ego is and how their words can cut deeply.
ReplyDeleteBTW, I have totally revamped my "Complaint" site. I would really appreciate if you would take a look and give me your thoughts. (The absolute truth, please.) Also, do you think the instruction on the site, in regards to submitting a complaint, make sense and are easy to follow?
I have yet to make an announcement of any kind.
Thanks,
I forgot to check the box that alerts me to your response. It's not checked.
ReplyDeleteHey Mel,
ReplyDelete“God bless you Max.” – thank you, Mel *bowing*! May God bless you too :).
“Circumstances can change things dramatically. Also, women do not realize how FRAGILE a man's ego is and how their words can cut deeply.” – I totally hear you on this one, my friend *nodding positively*…
“BTW, I have totally revamped my "Complaint" site. I would really appreciate if you would take a look and give me your thoughts. (The absolute truth, please.)” – you have? I must go and check it out :)!!! You know that I always give you my thoughts, Mel. When it comes to aesthetics I am always honest (too honest perhaps) :)!
“Also, do you think the instruction on the site, in regards to submitting a complaint, make sense and are easy to follow?” – I will drop by your site and let you know, my friend (as soon as I finish this counter-comment)…
Thanks for your comment on the article; you got one of my points perfectly, Mel :)! And thank you for giving me the honour of giving my opinion on your site *bowing*!
I’m off to your site now…
Cheers
Mel,
ReplyDeleteLOL I know how it is; it happens a lot to me *nodding*...

Max, you have very cleverly shown us how our needs and perceptions can change in different scenarios and settings. This post also makes the very important point that the sum and worth of a person are much more than just their face value (not to make a pun) or glamour appeal. A man or woman who looks geeky or otherwise less- than-attractive becomes irresistable if they have leadership qualities, conviction, great knowlege or prowess or creativity in some particular area.
ReplyDeleteI'd much rather be with a just- okay-looking mate who has a great range of aptitudes, and intelligence and a sense of humor, than a handsome face who is passive or inept.
Great post, Max! You always get us thinking and talking!
Hi Max,
ReplyDeleteMax you said: 'indeed, that was the main message' - oh I am feeling good now, thanks for the confirmation, as I tend to sometimes to talk about other things, lol.
Max you said: '- Chuck is a nice chap, I like him; and it was fun creating him (did you know that I actually played him in front of my mom, just to see if it was convincing?). I hear you, my friend.

Your mom is great. I have a feeling that she reads your blog, lol. Does she blog too?
Max you said: 'I agree with you, blogging forces us to reach people's soul, feelings, to read their mind...without being hindered by their looks, social status, age, religion, nationality etc. - you reinforced my thoughts even better, well said, thanks.
It is always a pleasure to converse with you, and to share great insights. I really learn so much from you girl, thanks.
Anna :)
Delirious is so right Max, most of the time our society is so discriminating. In the forest, there's no one else to discriminate him and Phoebe saw all his good qualities that she didn't see while they were in the city.

"I'd much rather be with a just- okay-looking mate who has a great range of aptitudes, and intelligence and a sense of humor, than a handsome face who is passive or inept." - absolutely! As I was telling one of my friends, here, it is such a disappointment when we see a beautiful man and then when he opens his mouth we just feel like shooting the guy *nodding*. Whereas there are men who are not-so-attractive but have great minds, amazing conversation, make us laugh and have sex-appeal! Go figure...
"Great post, Max! You always get us thinking and talking!" - Thank you, darling; thank you for your kind words :D!
Needless to say that your comment was of an immeasurable value *bowing*!

Hello Max!
ReplyDeleteMax you said: 'No, she doesn't blog; but I am trying to convince her to do so...let's see :)....' - or this may be dangerous for both of you, because I can see two of you corresponding via blog comments, I think she knows it is better for two of you to have still eye to eye connection - the true connection, lol, or she got many other things to do too - mother's know the best, they have good gut feeling what to do and what to do not. Thanks Max, that was fun post. Take care, Anna :)

Thanks Max, that was fun post." - LOL LOL LOL yeah, she got plenty to do; but perhaps later on, who knows :D? It would be interesting to have her in the blogsphere cause she is extremely intelligent...
But you are right: mothers know better and most of the times they are always right :D!
