you're having fun with tons of girls

First, I'd have to know how many girls to the ton?

Chris Mathews, Wingwomen Client: "My experience has been very good, to me actually. I've used it twice, once with a group of four other guys. We split the wing woman, if you will. And we all went out together, and just had a good time. And yes, she acted as a social lubricant of sorts."

AMBUSH JOURNALISM...OR MY EVENING WITH CAVEMAN CHRIS MATTHEWS

As I am seated at the table with Matthews, who I am meeting for the first time, he cracks a joke--and not in a well-meaning way--about how I look. (There are quite a few people who are hung up on this.) "Are you sure you are old enough to be on the show? What are you? 28?" I grit my teeth. He badgers me again with the same question. I politely answer his question and supply my age.

(I wonder how Matthews' wife, the respected TV journalist Kathleen Matthews, who hosts a show about working women, would react if informed about her husband's treatment of a fellow female journalist. I've been in the business a dozen years and would be happy to talk to Mrs. Matthews about my firsthand experience with Neanderthal chauvinism in the workplace.)

Sounds like a form of pimping to me.

Probably because men tend to be friends with women they are interested in.

I don't know...I think I have met most of my girlfriends at that age from female friends and roommates. Ya know the "I know this guy" sort of thing. Now my wife I met at work, but that was hush as it broke rule #9 at the establishment, LOL.

Bill Clinton went one step further.

He had State troopers bring women to him. No need to pay an hourly fee. The taxpayers paid wages.

This whole concept is the brain child of Shane Forbes, a 29-year-old computer programmer who realized the positive aspect of hanging around with women to meet other women.

I seem to remember understanding this concept in the 16-18 years old range.

The words "social lubricant" jump out at me. That's a new phrase!

The best way for a straight guy to meet women is join a musical society or a drama club.

Why?
Because there are always tonnes of single women involved in these, and majority of guys involved are gay.

If a straight bloke joins he'll have the pick of dozens of women! Honestly, I've had at least five of my straight male friends meet their wives through the two musical societies in my town.

(PS...it helps if you can sing! *L*)

Because there are always tonnes of single, liberal women involved in these, and majority of guys involved are gay.
