Joe: So you don't know what that ribbon actually symbolizes, do you... Bob: All I know is, it's a babe magnet... when women see a guy wearing one of these things, they naturally think he's caring and sensitive, so it reels them in! Joe: ... and then you open your mouth. Bob: Yeah... I'm still trying to work out that bug in the system.

What’s with his shoulder pads? I thought he was in a chair at first. Is that a sleeze-ball suit?

There’s always a bug in any system.

Every system should be beta-tested. With that mustache, Bob sort of calls to mind Tom Dewey, who blew the presidential election of 1948.

Nabuquduriuzhur, it’s better not to think about what women really want.

I’ve found that if you show a bit of sensitivity with a bit of the “bad boy” image, it does attract the ladies. For example, I support Breast Cancer Research. That’s the sensitivity part. While donating to one group of ladies at the local grocery store, I mentioned that I support it because every year, over a quarter of a million women discover they have it. Over 30,000 women a year actually die from it! A cure must be found to stop these numbers! Then I added, “Besides, I like looking at women’s boobs.”
THAT is combining sensitivity with a bad boy image!

The trick is to be a “bad boy” without being a jerk.

The babes will spit out the hook as soon as they notice that you have an umbrella drink in front of you, Bob.

NAvyRetired. I have ben in the local 10k for the past two years, but, I’m not a babe magnet. Nice display of spandex though!
By the way, men need an awareness ribbon too!

Ding Ding Ding… and the winner is Third Guy! Actually, I’d probably amend it to say, “Be confident without being a jerk.” The problem with a lot guys that complain about being “too nice for women to like” is that they ooze low self esteem. It’s not the bad guys women find sexy… it’s the confidence in themselves that they find sexy.

My widower friend (young guy, alas: lupus) told me that at his “busy professional singles” group, when it was learned he owned a house, he became instantly more desirable.
And he met and married a nice girl. The end.

I honestly didn’t know that men obsessed so much about what attracts women… Amazing. Women, of course, figure that all it takes to attract a man is very positive physical attributes. Some got ‘em and some don’t but life goes on and there’s always chocolate.

Mirthiful:….. Thank you, and I agree with your amendments. and a great smile, more than anything, works for me.

in my younger years, i learned quickly, that just out-front asking a babe if she wanted to get laid generally ran about 33 percent: 1/3 would nearly rape me, 1/3 just said No/maybe/or Yes after 2 beers, and 1/3 would left-hook me. And yes, it works. Always. Guess what? Many women like sex, too. there just seems to be an inordinate number of dorks that just cant/too-scared to relate to women out there. duh. more for me.
