You're either with the wrong women, spending too much time analyzing your...equipment or getting bored waiting for your CAMARO ! ! !
How this forum turned onto this discussion topic is almost scarry -somebody made a wrong turn somewhere.
Its like you all belong on that "other forum".
You guys used to be so much fun.
How about getting back to reality....like NOW?
You know, she's right

I am buying my first Camaro for two reasons.

#1. Because I want to.

#2. Because I can!

My tiny little penis has nothing to do with it!!!

Basically the Camaro would be my first "Sports car",I've always dreamed of owning one,But in my early 20's the only thing that was avaliable in the 80's make,model of car was...nothing.same with the 90's.I always loved 60's and 70's muscle cars,but have never lived anywhere that had a garage where i could keep it,let alone be able to afford one.Being a Michigander my whole life,you'd better be driving something front wheel drive or 4 wheel drive,so a rear wheel drive vehicle has never been a practical one.The closest i've gotten to that dream is 1/18th scale diecast models.Circumstances in life had alot to do with that.Anyway,For once in my life i'd like to have something nice and something that i really wantand something with some real horsepower and overall appeal,and that's about it.The 69 Camaro has always been my all-time favorite muscle-car,and the 2010 Camaro closely resembles that car.

- To be a DUDE
- To gain some Freedom

etc etc etc...

When I reply with "No, darling, I just like this car and it will make me happy to drive it", I am not believed.

And when she gets together with the other, um, Hens (shhh!) she says they all say the same thing about their husbands/bf's when it comes to the rides they drive...

Why do women say this? (Would appreciate hearing from any women out there who read this too!)
- Compensate for a perceived smaller wee-wee - WTF man?

Maybe your Girlfriend is saying that because she knows something about you, that we do not.........

My wife knows this is just the next toy on my list, and the fun will not stop until I am dead or broke..........which are probably both closer than I like to think!

We're talking about overcompensation.

Starkyluv where do you draw the line on overcompensation?

I'm saying people buy what they want, and if someone modifies there car our truck whats wrong with that?

You and the boat think you know better than everyone else and if what I said was "deep" to you then your a bigger joke than I thought.

Nope, I spend too much time complaining how my wife is driving my Vette!

The cars we have we have so we can enjoy them. Nothing to do with my 'equipment', more to do with fun driving. (At least I think so. )Besides, being married, she's stuck with me.

Here is a response from a woman (me)

Most women chalk up a sports car to mid life crisis or a small penis because..

1. They are jealous and can't afford it
2. They spend TONS of money on things they think are important like hair salons, clothing, shoes, jewelry etc. You would never tell her that she bought that little black dress for $300 because it makes her look skinny would you?
3. Women's taste in cars lean more to the luxury side and not the HP side.

Think about it. If all women thought that guys who drive sports cars have small penises or are going through a mid life crisis why do they drool so much over the car itself or beg for a ride? Hell I lived in a little town in New Mexico where guys were identified by ladies by the car they drove!

I am buying the new Camaro because it is sexy, fast and loaded with the newest interior technolgies that my PT Cruiser doesn't have. Imagine if men went around and said woman are buying a certain type of car because their ass is fat. Mini vans excluded of course =)

Where I'm from (Chicago) we call women who like guys because of their cars "car booty".

Women like hot cars. That's always been true.
