Studies on Women and Attraction

[Al B. Sure!]

Just perusing some stuff...

U of Virginia study:

http://www.nytimes.com/2011/03/13/fashion/13Studied.html

"The shocker was that the women who found the men most attractive of all were those who weren’t sure just how much the men liked them."

U of Texas Austin study:

Basically, the presence of opposite-sex others enhances a woman's attraction to a man.

U of Oklahoma study:

"Single women were more interested in poaching an attached man rather than pursuing a single man... this indicates that single women are more interested in pursuing a man that is less available to them"

I know that last one is correct. Get married and skanks come out of the woodwork.

Maybe you should spend less time reading academics about how to get women, and focus on meeting some?

Even I have gotten a woman, and I'm a "midget", pale homosexual computer geek. Get with it.

She probably wasn't hot, that's what turned into a homosexual, duh.

[C0ckney]

it's true, even asher is straighter than albie

[Asher]

She was quite attractive.

[giblets]

She was quite attractive.

How would you know? Did you go around asking heterosexual men if she was hot?

[Az]

weird, so, what turned you off? her clinginess? her moodswings? her vagina?

and I trust Asher's taste in women, because Asher is not a twink fashionista. It just like I can spot a good looking dude, and feel complimented when one hits on me ( and creeped out if an ugly one hits on me).

I was never fully sexually attracted to her. I just wanted to try before I knew for sure if I was gay.

I could recognize her attractiveness for sure, and the other guys seemed to really think so as well.

Read further down your first article, Alby:

There is a catch: Women in the study were uncertain about whether a man liked them a lot or an average amount — without the possibility that he found her utterly repulsive or ridiculous. In cases where the uncertainty includes a possible negative outcome, women are not pleased by ambiguity.

Basically the uncertainty made women intrigued when they knew the man liked them, but wasn't sure how much he liked them.

You like women you consider 'average'?

[Imran Siddiqui]

I can. Depends on other factors.

[Jon Miller]

Definitely.

Love, trust and other factors which are hard to quantify are far more important then looking at easier to compare features like beautiful/wealth/intelligence/skill.

Damn, I allready told you women want what they cannot have.

How can anyone but a feminist be surprised by this? Actually on second thought the feminist wouldn't be surprised either she or he would just throw a tantrum and squeal about how outrageous such sexist research is.
