--- Quote from: neurovore on May 10, 2010, 06:55:07 PM ---That neatly sums up my point.
"Guy" is not a biological man. "Guy" is a contemporary social construct of masculinity.
A really gentle, caring, nurturing man, the type who makes a good single parent, is not going to react like a "guy". And they do exist.

*sigh* and difficult to find...
svb1972:
Not really that hard to find actually.
But I will tell you, you're probably unlikely to find that kind of person at bars or nightclubs.

actually I think I have to get out of the office and the home. Never hit the bars or nightclubs. I'm seeking the quiet guy. We're both in our comfortable nests, I think.

Hopefully both of those nests have internet access.

you also have to take into context how a character acts around different people based on their gender. i know i act differently around my female friends than my male friends. and i act differently around my parents and others that i have been trained to recognize as authority figures.
but again it all depends on the type of character your trying to build.
a person that is really laid back and comfortable with themselves is not likely to be hanging out at a bar very often, and probably not a night club either. at leas in my experiences.
