What's that song? :) She got the gold mine and I got the shaft." In this day of equal opportunity, it still does not take much for women to woo men. Most guys will settle for a six pack of beer!!

It's not the food. Or the wine. It's the conversation and undivided attention.

Candy is dandy but liquor is quicker.

By offering expensive but worthless gifts, such as dinner and theatre trips, the male pays no cost if the invitation isn't accepted," said Dr Peter Sozou, of University College London (UCL).

Does this mean I should let her have her own box of Jujubees at the Dollar Movie Theatre?

"Wining and dining is the best way for men to woo women..."

It still is. Since the kids are all grown up and gone, I usually bring home a bottle of wine. I'll have a Famous Grouse or two (I wish I could afford single malt more often), get the hot tub fired up and it's another wonderful Friday night.

So getting them drunk with wine and feeding them is the way to go?

Interesting view!

Yup.

The Alabama Wild man (Jerry Reed) sure had a way with words.

Not exactly. I've seen women go through some poor sob's entertainment budget for the month... because they were bored.

Quickest way to "break up" with me: Expect me to bear the load. I passed on an otherwise pleasant fellow (years ago, when I was in the market) because he always expected to have dinner at my house. He would take me out on occasion; but I purchased (and cooked and cleaned up after), at least, 10 to one. What broke the proverbial (two-humped) camel's back: At his request, we ordered pizza; and I paid for that too.

I guess I had a stamp on my head, "SUCKER."

I've had it removed.

If the woman a man is wooing is impressed by expensive gifts and seems inclined to favor him because of his gifts, he's going to get what he paid for.

One way or another, you're paying for it.

Wining and dining best way to woo women?

I always thought it was obscene mouth gestures when you pass her in the car.

Ok, I'm a little lost. Scientists have proven that the reason women date men is to get a glass of wine and some food. hm. Now, I LIKE wine, and food is good, but I can get that at home. I have great wines in the cellar and am a helluva cook.

So, what I did was find a guy who likes to eat my cooking, has an equally good cellar, and is a great kisser. I can eat and drink wine by myself. Kissing requires two...

Only advice I would like to add is to make sure the woman you are going to wine and dine is NOT married!

If a lady doesn't share my tastes for Cab or Pinot, she's not worth pursuing. If she's a Franzia or White Zinfandel girl, I know I need to run, not walk in the other direction.
