My best friend just emailed this to me and I thought the ladies here would find it interesting:

love it!
I liked this one: "Men who kiss their wives in the morning live five years longer than those who don''t. "
and
this one: "Feminist women are more likely than others females to be in a romantic relationship."

I wonder if they''re suggesting that feminist women are less picky than others? (don''t have to be good provider etc) or maybe they just get out there and carry home what they want?!!

Or, maybe it''s got to do with being in male-dominated workplaces, and this rule:
"There’s a reason why office romances occur: The single biggest predictor of love is proximity. Familiarity breeds comfort and closeness… and romance."

Thanks for the link, Moonwater!

I actually think the femminist one is cool. To me, it says a femminist woman knows what she wants so when she gets it, she gholds on to it. As a femminist myself, I also believe it makes you more confident as a woman, which make you sexier to men.

The proximity thing doesn''t surpise me since the same holds true for friends. The closer you sit to someone at work for example, the more likely you are to be friends with them.

This was my take on it as well. Also I think when you are confident and secure you are less inclined to tolerate a man that isn''t really worthy. At least that''s how I am. I will cut a dud off in a heartbeat because I don''t believe in wasting time. Life''s too short!!

That''s why men can''t save money for e-rings ... they have to invest in razor blades! LOL
