A followup to yesterday's post about mate selection
A lot of guys seemed to be worried about finding sexual partners. There is a foolproof strategy.
1. Do something violent. Hitting a wall is good.
2. Faced with the consequences of this, cop a threatening attitude.
3. If someone shows the least sympathy, call yourself a loser and starting crying.
4. Repeat as needed.
I admit I don't understand the theoretical underpinnings of this strategy. On paper, it would seem to be a low-payoff method. But empirically, I find that it works often.
How interesting that I came upon this article at lunch today:

and sent it straight-away to my brother, since at least three of five of us siblings married exactly this kind of spouse/parent - and paid for it or are still paying for it ever since.
Cheers, Tom
