A portmanteau that represents the male point of view some, most, or all of the time. The percentages can always be debated, but yes, there are many men that think this way often. Of course, this pervspective is shared between men and women both, but possibly expressed less often by females, or less frequently in mixed company.
Anytime someone expressly or impliedly infers a dirty pun where it wasn't intended, the comment comes from that person's pervspective.

Get the The perfectiest mug.Linear Perspectivism - An art style and painting technique, developed and used by artist Erik Hesson, in which a scene is represented from a single perspective; using basic geometric forms, dynamic texture, and vibrant colors to create an idealized three-dimensional abstract composition. This style is an attempt to create a balanced fusion of Geometric Abstraction and Realism; incorporating mathematical calculations and sacred geometry into the three-dimensional composition to achieve the desired aesthetics. This style was first introduced in 2017 by Erik Hesson, a resident artist of St. Petersburg, Fl.

I turned 35 on Sunday, my boss told me that I was perfect for middle-management on Monday, and my kid flushed my blackberry down the toilet on Tuesday. After a fifth of whiskey, I gained some perspectivity and realized that at least I only have 30 more years to work for corporate America before I am eligible for what's left of social security- yeah me!

Get the perspectivity mug.If someone has an adaptive perspective, it basically means that they change their point of view of something depending on who they are around, mainly to impress them (e.g. different point of view in front of your friends and your girlfriend). In most cases, having an adaptive perspective won't end well, but someone being told this will more than likely dismiss this claim with the words "it'll be fine".
Girlfriend: I hope the Packers get beat this week, don't you?

One of my friends: What business trip? He told me that he got tickets to the Packers game!
