What is the female power fantasy ?

[melty]

Why are women replying how they want to, and not how I think they should?

I don't know, you're the expert. Also women did post stuff like you keep asking for, you just ignored it because it's not what you want to hear either.

You seen the ridiculous bimbo avatars women use in Second Life? That's their power fantasy

Any time I see a ridiculous bimbo I automatically assume that's a man.

Well half of them will be men, but I'm fucking shocked how often it's women as well. Without exception, if you give women the opportunity to go full bimbo slut they will always take it. Been playing FF14 the last year, and the women consistently go for fetish outfits

Also women...

I find it curious how most of the men here sought to propose and justify generalizations for both male and female power fantasies (following the OP's curiosity for such), but most of the women who contributed anything have been talking about specifically their own.

In case you missed it. And in case you still don't get it: "not all women".

Yes, I did check.

My point was that I was seeing a trend in how men and women were responding, where men almost always attempted to make detached observations (whether of women, or both men and women as part of a comparison) whereas women would almost always relay self-observations-- if they weren't chastising men for their approach.

you just ignored it because it's not what you want to hear either.

I was asking about an interesting pattern because I was genuinely curious about it. Observe:

I'm supposing the assumption among the women is that they don't find themselves qualified to make such generalizations?

So, spare me your passive aggression, and stop imputing moral value to power fantasies. They both generally make for low quality and largely uninteresting stories that people only read to indulge themselves in a fiction where their desires can directly control the trajectory of their lives. The value of talking about them is in-- perhaps-- coming to a better understanding of the fundamental desires of men and women.

Shit, feel free to leverage your understanding of men in order to give your theory on what men look for in their power fantasies and why. The "worst" that could happen is that you might be contradicted, but nobody's gonna call you a femcel or imply you're a pedophile for trying.

inb4 tl;dr, again

Don't criticize them, I don't want them to stop.

It's not criticism, in fact I'm baffled that western creators think they're catering to women by making everything as non sexual as possible

To be fair both times I "rode" a horse I felt like I was going to die, and everyone seems to agree on that point, so I'll concede it.

That's what I've always found so great about horses, they're massive beasts that are beautiful in a way. You can guide them, teach them, and work with them. You can quickly go from feeling in control to holding on tight for your life if you aren't smart about it.

..Though also they're gross as hell to maintain, stupid, and ornery. Also extremely expensive.

maybe it's because this thread isn't about the male power fantasy but about the female one. no need to write a huge wall of spergery

That's more extremely ugly/insecure creators or middle(wo)men trying to make everything that diverts male attention from them uglier than they are. Actual emotionally secure women love showing off.

Another point I just thought of in the womyn's favor: it's something that requires skill and animal empathy to do well. Strength and size may be useful but they probably aren't necessary. So maybe it's like gymnastics and women are just better at it than men.

Yes, the female power fantasy. Not an individual woman's power fantasy per se, but what's seemingly popular among women at large, how, and why.

The point of bringing up male power fantasies was, consistently, to juxtapose it with a proposed theory for female power fantasies. That pattern is in line with the opening post.

then why don't you listen to what actual women have to say about this lmao

Why don't you read how this tangent started and make a relevant comment?

 

[snailslime]

Why don't you read how this tangent started and make a relevant comment?

because you use a whole lot of words to say literally nothing.

 

[Zero Day Defense]

because you use a whole lot of words to say literally nothing.

If that were the case, you wouldn't be able to make any kind of response-- relevant or otherwise.

Exchanges like these are why I firmly believe you were better off lurking and posting trash cans, like you used to.

And yes, I know, the trash cans were taken away. That's not my problem.

i think you just like to see yourself type

Reads like I hit a nerve. You can't be that dull if you caught on to what I was implying.

What are you trying to argue again?

 

[The Last Stand]

Women like horses.

@MysticLord & @Zero Day Defense: let me write up an obscure essay and thesis on why and how women and horses relate to an absurd power fantasy from the school of /pol/.

In case you missed it. And in case you still don't get it: "not all women".

Yes, I did check.

You're sounding like a pervert.

 

[Zero Day Defense]

I started this tangent making an observation about the way men and women so far have been tending to contribute (men seem more bird's-eye in examining and contrasting both types of power fantasies, women are more self-referential).

I've expressed curiosity as to why that is, then I pointed out that women can do what the men have largely done without being condemned for doing so.

I haven't said a damn thing about horses.

You're sounding like a pervert.

...for pointing out that I checked to make sure that what I was saying could even conceivably be an accurate representation of reality?

Or for not saying a single thing about horses?
