>>378049Are you really that dumb or just jealous of the fact that my gf and I both enjoy car camping? She is clean, responsible, and self-reliant, she bought a backpack after our first hike so she could carry her own stuff and she contributes to the camping gear every year. You're making a bigger fuss about the fact that we have sleeping pads than she ever did when we didn't have them. Honestly, my guy friends aren't fun to camp with, they're bitches and complain about sore feet after a two hour hike so I don't camp with them, my gf will hike all day and the closest she comes to complaining is asking where the moleskin is after we're back.
The reason I was stressing comfort for her is that OP was asking for advice on making a girls first out experience as enjoyable as possible. This thread isn't about bringing your friends out and acting like discomfort is a necessary part of having a good time outside. I go to the gym to build muscle, I go outside to enjoy being outside.
I'm not saying there's something wrong with you folks who go out looking to do nothing but challenge yourselves, but that's what going out is about for everyone. The the thing you seem to be missing while you're trying to argue that I'm pussy whipped is that I'm not doing anything I don't want to do. I go and have a great time, and I get to do that with a great girl. Why that concept is so hard for you to grasp I'm not sure, but that's what it is. I even said not to do things you don't enjoy or you won't want to camp with her, that's crucial, if I had to wait on her I wouldn't want her to come. As it is, she cooks most of the food, she's great at it, and I just pump the water while she does dishes instead of trying to do both. Women don't have to be a burden, if your woman is a burden you should find a new one. Pic related, I wanted to see a trained bear show and look at old guns and swords, so we did.
