<p>(yes a lot of my actions are heavily influenced by people of the opposite sex. In fact, I'd go so far as to say that I wouldn't be as thoughtful or philosophical as I am now if it weren't for the potential of impressing ppl of the opposite sex). :p</p>

<p><strong>(not all of them since I did post frequently in a 95% male dominated forum until I was 14)</strong></p>

<p>(oh and additionally, do you sometimes try to convince ppl of the opposite sex that some of your actions are worth being impressed by?) :p</p>

<p>it influences a lot of other actions too, like my tendency to bring my mallard duck beanie baby along with me to random places</p>

<p>There was a famous Berkeley professor who was also a god in his field. He wrote an autobiography, and I read a synopsis of it. I'll never forget when he said basically his whole life was oriented around "getting ladies." His accomplishments, his everything. He wasn't really apologetic about it. He just said he was being honest with himself and others.</p>

<p>I can't remember the guy's name or his field, but I think this goes to Mike's point.</p>

<p>I'm gay.</p>

<p>Just kidding. But if only I could've seen the look on IK's face. :p</p>

<p>^^^haha you surprised me for a moment</p>

<p>Yes: 9
No:</p>

<p>but damn, I was thinking of writing an autobiography (for a theoretical scenario :p) and I was thinking of putting that part in to explain "supposed" accomplishments, but maybe it isn't as "special" as I previously thought :p</p>

<p>I wouldn't go as far as saying that *every single thing * I do is for that reason. I think I can be pretty self centered (I actually made the brownies for myself, no matter what I told other people ;) ).</p>

<p>Yes:10
No: 0</p>

<p>even though she was kidding, fixix2 makes a good point. If someone is gay I doubt that they are as likely to base their actoins on what someone of the opposite sex thinks as a straight person is. So if you wanted to get accurate results for your little survey then you need to re-word it. hehe. Peace.</p>

<p>haha yes. But it would be so awkward re-wording it. I'm not sexually attracted to every single girl I want to impress. :p Especially when I was 13/14.</p>
