Be green, get the women

Seems that a poll for "Nuts" magazine is showing that the best way to a woman's heart is by being environmentally friendly .

1,500 women [18-35] were asked what personality traits they found most attractive in men:

1. Caring about the environment
2. Sense of humour
3. Confidence
4. Intelligence
5. Well-travelled
6. Empathy / Understanding
7. Dress sense / Style
8. Ambition
9. Knowledge of current affairs
10. Good with children

Louise Prior, the mag's relationship guru, thinks eco awareness means a man isn't selfish. 'There's something sexy about a man who recycles, it shows that he cares about more than just himself and shows he has a sensitive side and thinks about the future,' she says.

No, it just shows he is prepared to help with the housework.

That's always been the best ploy because they have less excuse to avoid going to bed.

Re: Be green, get the women

Remember that the question was directed at women.

They are hardly likely to be honest.

For most of them money trumps all.

Mine is a rare exception.

Re: Be green, get the women

Well apart from offering to buy the drink you are a total failure because you forgot to demonstrate extreme wealth.

Otherwise a very apt post.

All you needed to do is invite her to a weekend on your yacht moored in Monaco harbour.

So? Size does matter? I knew it would in the end.

Thanks! I'll have a pint of "Winter Ale".

Re: Be green, get the women

Nimby, why was "you tart!!" removed from my last post? It's been a long time phrase used in Only Fools and Horses between Del and Rodney. Have a listen!! http://www.geocities.com/bhg1967/tv/tart.wav

Not that I would necessarily want to display signs of brotherly love, but the phrase is used in jest between friends. Not sure why you'd want to remove it TBH.

Re: Be green, get the women

Sorry Bob.

Rule 13 (?)

Thou shalt not assaulte ye olde moderatore verbally.

I never watched OF&H.

Hated it.

So I didn't understand the reference.

Even if I reacted a little too hastily in this case I still cannot bring myself to be described as a "tart".

****!

How did you get promoted to Mr Incredible?

I always wanted to become Captain Nemo and sink gin palaces at marinas.

Think of the fun if you had the Nautilus! Like a knife through butter!

Re: Be green, get the women



I went on an afternoon's and evening's drinking sessions with a number of guys in here: Kieron, Abbeygoo, Woodywizz, Signs & Pave and they all agreed I looked like my Avatar! As "Malice" was an online gaming name it really was not in keeping with my "persona" in here! So I asked Ian J to change! The rest is history , as they say!!
