ANY FORM OF POWER is the ultimate aphrodesiac (spelling bad), meaning, MONEY, fame, great looks, etc. to me the pretentiousness of it seems like a trade off, yeah like long term prostitution. The days of being nice considerate and AVERAGE no longer work, at least not in superficial So. Calif.

Women tend to attract to the bad boy image as opposed to Mr. Nice Guy. I do believe in these modern times 'nice guys finish last" certainly has an air of truth to it.

Oh well, knock it out while you can young guys, cause later.....

I THINK REAL CHICK MAGNETS ARE GREEN, APPROX 6" X 2 1/2" WITH A 1 AND A COUPLE OF 0'S IN THE CORNERS.

Nice try, you only missed spelling the word correctly by one letter

As for your post, I agree with your money/power angle. Any attractive ride (along with a fairly attractive and/or well dressed man or woman driving it) is going to attract the opposite sex.

IMHO, it not about the car, its about the total package. Vette+a few good looks+decent wardrobe= someone thinking you have a lot of $$$$$

I was picking up my daughter at a party and as she was walking toward my car, one of her friends (about 16) yelled out, "I WANT THAT CAR!". Of course, that made my day, considering my car is now more than 8 years old.

....brings me back to when I had my motorcycle (in my 20s).....the only girls who wanted to ride were the 16 year-olds; they had no fear of crashing, since they had never experienced it before. Of course, I was happy to give them rides as long as their parents weren't watching!

The size of the worm makes a big difference when fishing. You may get noticed in a flashy lure but the worm always get 'em...

Ok while we are on the subject, I read a book written by a former Penthouse Playmate of the Year and Playboy model. She has a Law Degree and a Doctorates in Psychology. (f.splcheck again)

She tells it all,secrets, proven science, etc., the game is basically won or lost in the first 45 seconds !

I think it is called the Art of Dating or Seduction, blonde bombshell she is. It is an AMAZING read, it confirms what you have suspected. HIGHLY recommended reading for quys still 'on the prowl'.

There's some serious truth to that... I have a nice Movado watch that my parents got me for Christmas a few years back. I'd never been into nice watches, but working in a professional setting it was a good accent piece. I have to say that I get a "nice watch" about twice a week. When I'm out at the bars women really do take notice... but that's no matter when my GF's the bartender and scowl at them/me

As for chicks... I dated a car nut in college who loved the car. I got it just after I graduated and we still hung out from time to time. I have gotten to see a few sets of bewbs ( . )( . ) from it, and a few times it aided heavily in getting BJs, but that's a story for another time

In my experience chicks do dig the Vette. Whenever I go out with a bunch of girls they want to take pictures with it.

This is true, men generally look to see who would produce the strongest/healthiest off spring, we generally equate this to 'looking fine'. Women want who will be the best provider, thats why we see rich famous ugly guys with real hotties. That same person working a run of the mill job, couldn`t get the time of day. Was it always this way ? In our youth say teens to very early twenties,before we are serious, it`s all about the hormones.

I really respect those marraiges (sp) that go the distance, thru thick and thin, etc. 50 years together, what a turn on, IMO. Congratulations to those that beat the odds with sincere love. Funny how the rare TRUE LOVE, evades all this statistical data and facts. TRUE LOVE is indeed rare, I think. In truth, no female has ever come close to loving me as deeply as who, thats right, dear ol Mom.
