I ran into this blog, "Meditations on Meaning, which had a great article on how hot women perceive being picked up online. Very eye-opening and reminds me why I've sworn off online game.
What happens when you gather fourteen hot women together in your living room (for market research purposes only), give them wine (the ones over 21), and ask them to talk about their dating experiences? Well, you learn a lot… and you get lots of good sound bites!!
Why hot women will rule you OUT online, but rule you IN offline:
Reason #1: Men have no shame online. Though most men are afraid to approach hot women in person, they don’t have an issue approaching them on dating and social networking sites:
* Becky, 19, says: “Hundreds of guys “befriend” me on MySpace everyday. And I only have 14 bikini pics up there!”
* Sandra, 23, says: “Yeah…guys online are persistent little critters!”
Reason #2: Because hot women have to sift through so many solicitations on sites like MySpace or Match.com, they either a) ignore them altogether, or b) devise extremely superficial ways of sorting through their inboxes:
* Karla, 34, says: “I was on Match.com for a few hours, but after I don’t even know how many emails, I stopped reading. I didn’t realize that sifting through men could be so much work.”
* Janie, 18, says: “Ummm, like, yeah… I actually go through my inbox super-fast…but that’s because I have, like, a system.”
Reason #3: Hot women use superficial sorting criteria when responding to potential suitors online… criteria that rule most of us out:
* Janie (when pushed to reveal her “system”) says: “Well, like, if he’s under six feet tall… then he goes, and if he doesn’t have good pecs… then I’m sorry, but he’s gone too!!”
* Shaquila, 25, says: “I want a good ass. Nice, firm, mmm! But actually, now that I think of it, I can’t measure ass firmness in a picture… So mostly he just needs to know how to spell. Tits is spelled t-i-t-s, not t-i-t-t-s!”
Reason #4: In the real world, our dynamic and sexy personalities can oftentimes overcome hot women’s superficial preferences – but not online:
* Sandra, 23, says: “There are just too many men trying to get to me online. I know it’s not ideal, but I need a way to sort through them… and sorting by income level helps me do it!’
* Tracy, 18, says: “Yeah, if I met a guy in a library, it’s different… maybe he could show off his speed reading skills or something. But if he’s approaching me online for one reason… then I’ll respond for one reason too.”
Reason #5: Even if a hot woman responds to you online, it’s likely the beginning of a long, dead-end courting process:
* Laura, 28, says: “I flirt with a lot of guys on MySpace. But that’s all it is – flirting. It’s kind of funny to me that they think it’ll go farther!”
* Kathleen (age not disclosed) agrees: “I don’t really have any desire to act on the things I write. But I know those boys do!!”
Reason #6: There are three primary reasons women tend not to turn online flirting into offline meeting. I’ll let the women speak for themselves here:
* Natalie, 18, says: “Because we’re already getting what we want – attention.”
* Karla, 34, says: “Because we don’t trust the men we meet online.”
* Nufar, 26, says: “Because men email us for only one thing… and at least we can pretend that in the real world, when they ask us out, they want us for more than that!!”
Reason #7: For hot women, there’s no comparison between being approached online and being approached in person:
* Sarah, 27, says: “If a guy emails me after seeing my modeling pics, I’m like ‘So what… he’s just another fan’. But if a guy asks me out after approaching me in a coffee shop, and asking what my favorite album is, or something, I’ll always consider it…”
* Christine, 22, says: “I admit that it gets me off that so many guys on MySpace want me… but it gets me off even more when a guy in real life wants me. Because I know he wants more than just the idea of me.”
Reason #8: Asking hot women out offline is a manly thing to do. And hot women appreciate manly things:
* Charla, 31, says: “Most men are afraid of me – probably because my boobs are so big. If a guy asks me out in person, I know he’s not afraid.”
* Bridget, 22, says: “Asking a woman out in broad daylight takes confidence… I like confidence. And anyway, I’ve never really even considered guys online. They’re, you know, just playthings.”
