wow, so the part about the longfellow park wards really threw me off, didn't expect to see that. I did the BYU thing until I moved to Boston, went to LP2 for about a year until I got married (to a girl I met after my first month there). And I can honestly say that y'all hit the nail on the freakin' head with the way you describe it. I actually suggested kinda the same thing to a couple of girls in that ward, but, of course, the advice went unheeded. No wonder the guys never ask any of the girls on dates. Of course, to be fair, the guys there aren't exactly the pick of the litter either so I can see why some of the girls may have given up...in any case, well done, ppl. love the blog.

I agree with the commenters who have said, "well, what do you want?" Some satirical poking fun is always welcome, but if you don't lighten up now and then, it's not very fun to read.

I've enjoyed you blog in the past, but it's getting a little tedious. All you ever have is "don't do that" and "never do this." While you do occasionally throw in some suggestions for what girls "should do," you don't tend to use specific examples. This entry is an excellent demonstration of this. You tell the girls that shouldn't be slutty, sexless, cloned, or frumpy with recognizable examples from wards across the country. Okay that's fine. And you suggest that girls try being refreshingly original. Sure no problem, except what constitutes original? Where might one go for inspiration on original? Have you been to a ward that's got this original concept down pat? Unless you can really give some good suggestions, your "constructive" criticism simply comes off as criticism. And relentless criticism is nothing more than nagging. I’d love to have a reason to continue reading this blog, so please, toss me a bone, and have an entry or two that are filled to with suggestions because that would be refreshingly original.
Cheers,
Aleigh

yes i agree, austin will probably be looking up some porn right after he posted some comment trying to portray himself as more spiritual and sensible than all other mormon guys.

Classic!

2009-03-12T10:36:00.000-07:00

Doubt it.

I would venture that this "Austin" character is actually a girl with parents who aren't afraid to be creative in naming their children.

2009-03-12T09:22:00.000-07:00

I think Austin is the only single guy on here who has a high chance of seeing a vagina in the next year. He's got his priorities straight! Austin's a stud!

"If anyone can't see past a girl's dress to her true character and what she'll be as a wife and mother, it is the man's relationship with the Spirit that needs a makeover, not the girl's wardrobe. Geez."

Very well said Austin!

2009-03-12T06:36:00.000-07:00

I love how annoyed some people get over the comments you make. Reading the comments afterward is almost as funny as the actual article you post because of how many sad little
single Mormon girls are afraid of a little change in life. Girls may think there are some guys out there that aren't extremely shallow well I say that is a lie because all guys(me included) don't take a girl out with hope that she is a sweet spirit. No we take them out based on what we see before we actually get to know them.

2009-03-12T04:48:00.000-07:00

BTW the author is in California. He is in the pacific time zone because I am in the eastern time zone (BOSTON) and my posts are labeled as being written 3 hours earlier than they actually are. His account is linked to the time zone he is in. That would explain his terribly inaccurate portrayal of East Coast Women....

2009-03-12T04:46:00.000-07:00

Brittany, the author isnt't saying he does't like frumps- he is bagging on girls who don't have the money or resources to dress "unique". THAT is the problem. I went to school in IDAHO where we had 2 clothing stores in the entire town. And 30 minutes away we had maybe 4 more. You tell me how I was supposed to break the mold with that...

2009-03-11T22:33:00.000-07:00

Austin- There is a reason a flower has petals. Its to attract the bees so they come inside to get the good stuff! Same situation with people. You need to dress and look attractively to attract the men so they can then see how great you are on the inside! I'm sorry but if you look frumpy constantly you are never going to get the guys attention. I get that you are a guy, but you are obviously a minority.

2009-03-11T21:56:00.000-07:00

Wow. You're a pig. How we dress speaks volumes, true, but you're gonna say that a girl needs to work harder on dressing creatively to attract guys? How pathetically shallow can you be? If anyone can't see past a girl's dress to her true character and what she'll be as a wife and mother, it is the man's relationship with the Spirit that needs a makeover, not the girl's wardrobe. Geez.

2009-03-11T20:35:00.000-07:00

I think the author is pretty on target this one. Even the "For the Strength of Youth" pamphlet teaches that how we dress speaks volumes.

2009-03-11T19:52:00.000-07:00

Come on, clothes really aren't going to make or break it for any guy. And fashionable or unique clothing won't compensate for out-of-shape or crazy.

Here's a loaded statement: It's what is underneath those clothes that really counts.

2009-03-11T13:17:00.000-07:00

the girls who bash this blog are in the unfortunate position of having no clue how the male brain works. we can not see the good on the inside unless we see the good on the outside. is that retarded? sure, but that does not make it less true. they fail to see that this post is half educational and half satirical. i pray they learn to tell the difference!

2009-03-10T17:22:00.000-07:00

This post is absolute blather. It makes absolutely no sense. You are trying to hard to be articulate and cute with pop culture references that you are not getting your point across. Go back to the basics boys!

2009-03-10T17:11:00.000-07:00

Dear P.P. and gang,
What sort of Mormon guy would go for wool tights, thick sweater (brand unknown, just the thickest one in the closet), skirt (fitted, if wearing aforementiond wool tights), high boots with non-slip soles and no heels, and knit cap flattened hair? Is there hope for a NYC girl in the winter when she has to walk to church? Or should I just give up on dating anyone who doesn't own a braided belt until summertime rolls around again?

2009-03-10T17:01:00.000-07:00

So, the new look is sort of close to uhm... disrespectful. But its totally cool because any one with have a brain knows they are not reading from the "other" website. So, anyway, this post is ok, but it seems that you guys are getting a little less funny and a lot more bossy. So cool it on the no no no junk and get back to the good stuff.

2009-03-10T16:44:00.000-07:00

I wish more girls would wear Tetris blocks out on the town. Four of my favorite girls ever. Matter of fact, if all the girls in every ward would wear Tetris blocks around I guarantee "the one" would find them.

PS I wish every girl would read this blog and apply every single word this author writes. Would cure all of our problems.
