Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:35 am     LOL! Well THAT took long enough! I had to wait almost three hours for someone to say that Robert was NO Al Pacino. I was about to be dissapointed in y'all! The thing that bugs me about Robert's dancing is that isn't he supposed to be looking at his partner? Is it normal for salsa dancers to look at themselves in the mirror and go "look how good my butt looks!" |
Misslibra | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:38 am     Clio LOL Clio that is how Robert hypnotize the Women when he turns around while dancing and shows the ladies his butt. LOL |
Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:42 am     LOL! Isn't that what he tried to do to Ali (or was it Michelle) at that Truth or Dare competion ages and ages ago? |
Misslibra | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:44 am     I don't know I must of missed that. |
Wargod | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:44 am     LOL Missl! I'm not much of a dancer, but if I was watching myself in a mirror while dancing, I'd laugh myself into a fit! |
Misslibra | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:46 am     Wargod LOL  |
Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:46 am     Oh yeah ........ you'd remember it if you saw it, I'm just not describing it right. They've shown the clip over and over, showed it tonight as a matter of fact. It was a simulated stip tease. One of the girls was seated in the chair and he pretended to give them a lap dance. Pulled his pants down.......... |
Wargod | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:49 am     Dang, I haven't seen tonights show yet, I might have to watch it tomorrow instead of waiting til this weekend, lol. |
Kalekona | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:52 am     Cliotheleo - the lap dance was during the truth or dare.. |
Willsfan | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:52 am     LOL I couldn't figure out why Robert never looks at Erika when they dance either. Very funny, especially when he told everyone to see how he moved his butt. I would love to have the man in my life dance like Robert!! |
Misslibra | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:55 am     Yes Willsfan Robert has some smooth moves when he dance. |
Wink | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 07:59 am     Being a connoisseur of male butts I have to say that Robert's backside is nothing to write home about. He reminds me of Alfalfa. |
Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:03 am     Yep Kale, that's what I said. (Scroll up a few posts.) |
What555456 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:06 am     Now, how does Robert know (or anyone for that matter) how his butt looks? Anyone here ever get a clear view of their own? I tried it after I heard what Robert said and I can't contort my body in a way to do that! I suppose I could get someone to film my butt, but I am not sure how I would explain to someone why I want them to do that without making an a** of myself, so to speak. <g> |
Squaredsc | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:10 am     rofl wink, im with you on that one. but the man can dance. |
Bonnyswan | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:12 am     so can monkeys....... |
Brenda1966 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:19 am     As an amateur dancer and a single woman, I can tell all you men that a guy who can dance a real dance like Salsa or Swing CAN get women he never would otherwise. I had always wondered how Robert got a gal like Erika until I saw him salsa and then it was crystal clear to me. There is something very seductive about a man who can dance and loves to dance. As for watching his own butt in the reflection -- all dance studios have mirrors all over the walls. Any schooled dancer learns to watch themselves at times to make sure they're dancing properly. No, I'm not a Robert fan. Just a dance fan. |
What555456 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:24 am     Are women really that shallow, Brenda? A man can dance sensually and well, so women fall in love and have a relationship with him? If this is the type of criteria women really use, then I have to stop feeling sorry for them when men take advantage of them. Seems to me they get what they ask for. |
Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:24 am     What, not only do dance studios have mirrors all over but so does (newsflash!) the Big Brother house. |
Squaredsc | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:27 am     what i would think its the physical attraction. if he can move his hips sensually like that then it just leads one think that he move that way when doing....  |
Fruitbat | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:36 am     I don't think dancing is a criteria. It is intimate contact and connection. That is a real tug to get to know someone better. One doesn't meet men who can dance as often as not, so it is special and fun. We all look for common ground straight away. Apparently both Ericka and Natasha could Salsa and were taken with the idea of having a fun thing to share. I think Robert knows how to woo a woman, not keep them, but certainly get their attention. |
Cafe976 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:37 am     Well, given the fact that it is beyond a doubt that his daughter watches the show avidly, would you really want the producers to make ALL of Robert's flaws raked up and made painfully obvious? Editing, schmediting. Saying "he is a womanizer and will be one until the day he dies" should be enough of a hint to anyone out there who is not self-deluded! They do not have to show day after day of mysoginist comments to get the point across. |
Nonconformist | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 08:57 am     I have to agree with Brenda. I said the same thing to my husband and son. This may not apply to all women, but for me there is something very appealing about a man that can dance. Especially a dance like the salsa or swing. There is also something appealing about a confindent man. Which, for some strange reason, Robert is. And some women just eat that up. I know I did at one time. In fact when I was 19 I dated a guy just like Robert. With the allergy problems and everything. He was constantly snorting and spraying nose spray. I felt sorry for him of course. But eventually his demeaning treatment of me sent me to the arms of someone who treated me much better. Robert may be able to "attract" women. But his personality will surely not "keep" them. |
Charvie | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 09:16 am     I think a man who dances willingly and well is definitely attractive. The only problem I have with Robert is that he looks down and around, never at his partner and I would be a little hesitant to label him as a good dance. Probably why Erika did the salsa movie and not him. But Robert does have a certain appeal that I can see why a woman would date him. Of course I say this with great pain, because I can't stand him. But, there is no getting around it. The problem with Robert is that as time passes he would become a nightmare. Needy, whiny,moody and in general compulsive/obsessive. A side comment: Anyone notice how his ex Natasha looked like a younger Erica with dark hair? I couldn't get over the resemblance. |
Cliotheleo | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 09:19 am     Charvie, I thought the same thing. When they first showed Natasha with Robert's daughter, for a split second I thought it was Erika's sister. ...... until I realized that Erika doesn't have a sister (I think?) and even if she did, she wouldn't be keeping Robert's daughter. |
Wink | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 10:07 am     Okay so am I the only one that sees Alfalfa when I look at Robert? |
Katlady53 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 10:11 am     I think Robert would be an even better salsa dancer if he'd put a bag over his head. |
Kellirippa | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 10:11 am     LOL WINK!!!... I'm thinkin' you probably are... |
Cricket | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 10:26 am     I agree with Brenda. If you're a woman who loves to dance, finding a man who can dance well is a plus. I'd bet that's what Erika saw in him also. He does have some good fluid moves, but I don't think his behind is all that either. Too bad BB won't let them have salsa music and let Erika and Robert teach the houseguests to dance. LOL, Jack's wife would probably love it if he learned some new dance steps. It would also be a good way to pass the time and get some exercise. BB is missing a golden opportunity. |
Brenda1966 | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:30 pm     Glad to see people agreeing with me for a change. Dancing opens doors for Robert. The women may turn and run out the door after a while, but the door was opened by his dancing. I don't think that say anything about women being shallow. Finding men who dance is not easy, so when one comes along and lays on the charm you give him a chance. BTW, I thought his ex-wife was gorgeous and seemed like a great gal. Somehow Robert just can't be as awful as his potty mouth suggests. Relationship material? No, but I'd dance with him. |
Crossfire | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 12:35 pm     Dancing sucks, standing off to the side with a drink looking as cool as possible should count as well. That's where the good guys other than a pair of left feet are hanging out.  |
Cricket | Thursday, August 21, 2003 - 01:56 pm     LOL, Crossfire...been with too many of those. I want a dancer! Brenda, I am just now watching last night's tape and his ex said the salsa got her interested in Robert too. She said they were friends and got married young and were married briefly, so I don't know if he is good in a relationship. She said he was a womanizer then and would always be a womanizer and she never sees him settling down. Hmm, maybe instead of opening a restaurant he should open a dancing school. Think of the ladies he will meet for one night stands, lol. |
