Would anyone else find it slightly creepy if...

Well by that rate, they're both pychos. I mean she did totally flip out on Ben for kissing getting kissed by his ex-girlfriend on their first date!!!

You'd feel cocky too if you were full of myself.

All men have fantasies about getting women's breasts and genitals out and / or having sex with them without the women themselves being aware of it. Having fantasies about naked women is at least part of what makes men men. Seriously, if you can't stand the idea of a man imagining a woman naked without her permission, you shouldn't be dating men in the first place.

Additionally, take a closer look at most of these paintings. While maybe not perfected in a sense that they are only proxy to what is actually hanging on the wall of the imaginary world of this movie, as much as the women shown are only proxies that are pleasant to look at for the average viewer and may not accurately represent what kind of women ben would find beauty in, they are still done in a very soft way. The kind of pictures you might actually see hanging in the shop window at a photographer.

Yes, the entire thing is a bit creepy, but picture the paintings to be of a quality that would actually draw attention from an art gallery. Someone with the mindset that artists can capture someone's true beauty, who finds that romantic and with the same background connection to the artist doing that, would probably have the resulting feelings.

"I thought it was romantic, but then you reminded me that women in the real world, like yourself, are not flattered by such sincerity and honesty that someone could adore you so much that they draw you and paint you and bring out your inner beauty on canvas, capturing a moment, finding something in you that even you couldn't see, and they adore you so much they're not ashamed to show the world. You're too busy being creeped out because society says it's "creepy".

Scenes like this remind me how to love again. Women like you remind me not to."



I've had your post tattooed on my chest, and I chant it as a mantra when I wake up in the morning and when I go to sleep, crying with joy as I do so.

I'm sure you'll want to contact me soon, having been so flattered by the sincerity and honesty of my totally un-creepy adoration!

wow, greatly put into words :-). I think this quote wins the internet and have borrowed it for my last.fm account: http://www.last.fm/user/Andy_warhola ... of course with your nickname above it.

edit:
I meant to put this under magnetictheory's post but somehow it didn't worked. Anyway great quote nontheless

The only problem is, you won't find many women to love you in prison.

But I guess physical prison isn't as bad as the prison of shame and social conditioning I am trapped in every day. Oh woe! Poor me! If only I could be freed from this prison by a stalker, I mean, true romantic...
