I would say women want these: money/security, family and personality.

[DarwinX]

Finding a mate is like a pot looking for its lid, only when the lid fits, does the relationship flourish.

[Spiral Out]

My personal list: 1) honest 2) good hygiene 3) manners 4) kind 5) has a direction in life 6 )is wise with what money he has 7) Personable ) respectful 9) faithful in word and deed 10) can give and take humor, etc..

#1: Sure, but be careful what you ask for.
#2: That gets top priority.
#3: Only when necessary.
#4: Only when deserved.
#5: No master plan.
#6: You can't take it with you.
#7: Only to the personable.
#8: Only to the respectable.
#9: If you mean a man of his word, then Yup.
#10: Isn't life just one big joke?

Did I theoretically "pick up Misty"?

[DarwinX]

Females are easiest to pick up when they are young 13-16. Between 17-21 they are at their fussiest.(bitchiest) between 22-35 their list of requirements becomes increasingly complicated and longer as they get older. After 35 their requirements starts to diminish again. After 40 they will just grab whatever drunk they can find. Note - If they can find a rich, good looking or famous person their standards of behaviour requirements will suddenly drop dramatically.

[Thinking critical]

Picking up women is easy, good looks, charm and confidence. You don't need money unless you lack everything else. Finding true love and commting your life to someone is a completely different story.

[PhilosophicallyInept]

The secret to picking up the ladies, is the same secret to picking out the enemies; know them, and know yourself.

[Misty]

Well to be honest with you Misty, being 21 I feel my life has direction, but I don't feel I have ever truly been "tested" by life (though my personal matters are no picnic I assure you.) I have also made many mistakes and harbor regrets, but I truly feel Philosophy and my current circumstances have and continue to make me a better person. You seem like a very put together woman which I respect, but I am always good for some nice, flirtatious banter if anything else. Being I love Philosophy I can also discuss some high brow stuff too.

Maturity wrapped in youth - a rare find and gift.

My list was in rebuttal to the previous list of what women want. Women want different things in a man, so one woman's ideal is another woman's reject. (same for men) Misty was not trying to get picked up.

It seems the OP's intentions for this topic are strictly carnal in nature and his secrets reek trickery. A Bambi falls for such, while a mature doe has learned to avoid danger. Trickery Dick-hery Mock. The OP's statement :"#3 sense of humor. Laugh-her your way into her vagina." - requires a warning - One may get laid because she needs a good laugh!

[Spiral Out]

I don't think anyone's trolling philosophy forums for dates, and if they are then good gawd they must be desperate.

What I was saying is if those were the criteria for a successful pickup and if those questions were answered like that, then by the priority of... ah never mind.

[DarwinX]

Females only trade-up, they never trade-down. A female will never choose a male that she feels is beneath her in any way. This can be socially, financially, or otherwise. Females have an instinctual genetic imperative to improve the human race.

The movie 'Titanic', is a deception, because the heroine dumps her rich upper class boyfriend for a 3rd class passenger. This would never happen in real life. This is just a hollywood/ruling class deception; to cover up the fact that 3rd class passengers were locked in the lower decks and all drowned while the rich upper class females got onto the life boats. They couldn't show what really happened on the Titanic because it might ignite a social class war. Thus, they glossed over the facts and made a hero out of a 3rd class passenger so that people would buy tickets to see the movie.

My wife wouldn't agree with that.

Your wife may be more attractive or earn more money than you, but there will generally be other comphensating factors in your favour, although, they may be fairly obscure genetic traits, skills or abilities.

Damn!

Not even one, Harbal? I would give you at least a half point for #10.

Half? That's a bit mean, especially as I was, less than five minutes ago, appreciating something you've written.

Ok a whole point !

[Priya Vijayan]

This is insulting to men and women.

Totally!

First and foremost you don't pick up women. You pick good relationships.
