OK, I'll buy that. What is it women are first attracted to? I suspect maybe it is a confident manner rather than looks alone. To be honest, I really don't know if I'd attract women. It's not like I've gotten hit on in a long long time, and I haven't been exactly out trolling either. When I was in college/high school I didn't have a lot of luck with the ladies, but I think now that it was because I was trying too hard.




I don't really think you can try too hard. I think you can just get it wrong over and over again. When I put up my profile on one site, one middle-aged guy sent me an e-mail that started with him addressing me as "Angel Eyes" and got even worse over the course of several paragraphs. The same day a 23 year old sent me an e-mail that was in direct response to a not blatant monkey line I had put in my profile and in just a couple polite/funny/confident sentences signaled that he understood my sexuality, knew how to f*ck and thought I was "cute." I was kind of shocked to be hit on by such a youngster in that manner but then I thought about it and realized that I knew (quite well) boys in their teens who could signal in that manner when I was a girl.
