The disgust response that increases preferences for symmetry (indication of strength of immune response) is a cool one!

So some women like the cave man and others go for the metrosexual. Who knew?!

I have that "Hate me, and I'll buy you a house" kind of look.

Obviously. X3.

All a mute point Rob Roy, It all still comes down to facial structure. A 9/10 guy can go up to a woman and do or say just about anything(grab her etc within reason of course) and she will swoon.

A 2/10 guy does that and she will say "get away from me you creep" and maybe even call the cops.

Ladies you know I am right.

While I’ve met my share of the wrong woman - thankfully, I’m not buying any of them a house.

I don’t know if you were going there but for a guy at a bar? A 2 at 10:00 is a 10 at 2:00.

Not true. Fact is, they pretty much all swoon over “cave man”; they just *claim* to go for “metrosexual” in their wymyn’s study groups. But they’re lying.

What is funny to me is the Female Researchers conclusions are contradicted by the Male Researchers conclusions, which are then re-rebutted by the Female Researchers.

The women get the last word in...funny how life works out like that isn’t it?

lol!

And this is exactly why less than attractive women are skewered in their choosing a mate. They think that just because a 9/10 guy picks them up at a bar that they are 9/10 material when they are not. A 9/10 guy won't have anything to do with them during the day when sober...but these women can't figure it out until they get older and their biological clock is winding down then they face reality and marry the fat balding guy.

Why are there so many wife beaters? Because many women choose men who will beat them.

I’ve actually had personal experience with that. My wife educated me on this and she is spot on.

BTW, one of her nicknames for me is GJ.

Well, to defend women, it goes both ways I would think...

Why married men behave better: because everything interesting, funny, cool and dangerous has been crushed and ground out of them, leaving behind a boring, soulless husk which follows orders and says “yes dear”. So some do and some don’t.
