In the spirit of Swingset providing hard data on the fairer sex's thought processes: www.nytimes.com/2007/04/10/science/10tier.html?ex=1333857600&en=7624fb423ec5920e&ei=5124&partner=permalink&exprod=permalink

The study misses an important point. Its focusing on who women will "date" (as in search for a love mate and life partner). They've missed alltogether another very real category, those being men who women will fuck into the ground after meeting them in a bar. This later category, if they ever studied it, would encompass almost no thought (by the women) as to socio-economic success levels, education, wages and the like. It would be a study showing attraction to the "bad boy" (or "raw" manly) features. This is the "swept of her feet" (and onto her back) scenario. As the stories about the number of men raising the progeny from an illicit affair, there is one more statistic I'd think useful to keep in mind: I'd bet dollars to donuts that the women who "settle" on the shorter or less attractive guys because, according to that study, they have more money and are better providers are the very women who are most likely to step out into the pasture for more genetically pleasing DNA. They get the best of both worlds, the vigor of the most vitally dominant man, and the stability of a good provider. Don't hate them for it, its a biological imperative. But do be aware of it. When I see friends date and marry WAY out of their league (and being a lawyer I see it a lot because these are the exact kind of guys who upgrade their prospects because of their wallets), I shake my head. Because I also see a disproportionate number of cuckold fellas whose kids don't match what they look like or whose wives have admitted to the affairs. |

I'm 6' 2" and my first girlfriend made me into a man because she needed 1 hour of hard fucking to orgasm. I've broken 4 Ikea beds since meeting her in college, and I work out every 2 days, with 2 miles of running and 30 minutes on the vanity and fighting muscles. I'd like to say I'm dating a super model, but no, i'm a big computer geek and car nerd with no friends and life, and worse yet, I no longer have my guns thanks to DC laws. I'll start chasing super models when I'm tall AND rich! In the meantime, i'll save money and just play video games and work all day... |
how much do you make?  Just asking. 
|

Not enough!  IMHO, there is a reason why people who date super models are either young movie stars or fat old men (with lotsa dough). This article comforts me that I can still be a speed dating king even though i'm not an overachiever. One of my consultant friends wanted to drag me to a speed dating thing for young professionals last week... maybe I should swallow my pride? Accordingly to the article, i should -be really snobby -pretend i'm into nobody but the girl i'm talking to -pretend to have class. -make fun of everyone but the girl i'm talking to. I'll report back! |
A buddy of mine and I tried the whole speed dating thing in law school, only we did it as an experiment and had fun with hit. They had 4 rounds. During "even" rounds I was the "nice guy" and he was the boorish prick. During the "odd" rounds, vice versa. We found that the boorish prick (and I mean things like literally asking the women to hook up for sex in a "lets get out of here and get you out of those clothes" sort of way) ALWAYS ALWAYS ALWAYS did better than the nice guy. No matter which one of us was being the nice guy. |
~scribbles notes~ And then what happened? Did you actually date people from these speed dating events? haha, I was the "nice guy" in high school, and after becoming disillusioned with my lack of success, kind of dropped the whole being nice thing in college, after realizing it was the same as being "fake" and a "non confrontational pussy". However, being a bad ass in college (omg, he takes girls to the SHOOTING RANGE! He has GUNS! He's the fraternity SOCIAL CHAIR!) is a lot easier than being a bad ass in real life. I'm not taking the harsh reality that I'm a nobody out in the real world so well, haha. |
yeah yeah back to the important stuff, you never did say how much you make. 
|
Not much since he buys hes beds at Ikea.
