Seduction - Size doesn't matter

    Anyone see this the other night? (This isn't a topic about the show, more about what the show was about etc... you'll see).

    It was about 3 different guys with absolutely zero confidence in scoring girls and basically didn't have a clue where to start. All had issues relating to their appearance... one was 6' 6'' was extremely uncomfortable with it. One was very overweight and presumably uncomfortable with it, and the other was a ''little person''. Only 5' 3''.

    Basically 2 ''experts'' were showing that size doesn't matter, and that ANY guy could have ANY girl. They were put to the test, as in, all had to just go up to a stranger in the street and basically start chatting to em. They were told about body language etc... and were even given the test to tell a girl she's sexy within minutes of meeting her.
    Obviously, this was quite cringe worthy and i did actually have to turn over the channel on a couple of occasions haha...

    Anyway, i guess i'm just curious if many people here actively do this, as in, go up to women in random places, chat away, even if you are a person with low confidence, and do any women do it? Or do we all stick to places such as bars, clubs, parties etc...

    If you're a women, would you be freaked out if a guy just came over to you while in the street and just started chatting to you?

    Yeah If I'm bored.
    why not.

    Sounds like an allright show, that.
    Confidence (and money*) can be enough to compensate for almost anything.

    *oooh controversial! But you know it's true.

    I think humans are generally attracted to healthy looking bodies, weather they be cuvery, smaller or anything else as long as it is healthy. If you want to have a body to attract the opposite sex just lead a healthy lifestyle

    Yes I am a woman and I do it. I find some guys are chuffed and some are morto (especially if they are out with friends)

    I would love it if more non-scary random guys chatted to me in the street/bus/supermarket!

    Jesus Lundi, talk abpout leaving us hanging. You never mentioned whether it worked, whether the girls got afraid and told them to fcuk off....god dammit I wanna know!

    Anyway the answer is when Im sober rarely, when Im pissed all the tme, with varying success.

    define non scary?

    Actually, i'm more intrigued to see if a woman would have time for a man who did this who would be considered ''ugly''(not scarred for life or anything), but someone who they wouldn't normally find atractive. Would ya just blank him and run away?

    non-scary=not a junkie/not carrying a weapon/not threatening/menacing in anyway

    TBH it doesnt matter what a fella looks like as long as he is sound as, is able to string two words together and likes a good laugh!

    you have to remember that when a woman say "non-scary" they actually mean "Good Looking"....or at very least a silver tounged devil who is confident, charming and generally good with words.

    well.. just incase people have it recorded, or want to catch the repeat...
    One of the guys, the 6' 6'' one actually scored a girl on the last night out, he was actually the more nervous out of all of them, he really had a tough time approaching the ladies. But it worked out for him...

    The big guy didn't score, but got a couple of phone numbers etc...

    The little guy also didn't score, but did get on with the ladies...

    Come to think of it, not too much happened, but all the guys had a big boost in confidence by the end...

    The two experts were cool though, they weren't by any means brad pitts,, but they actually showed how it's ''done'', and went up to randomers on the street and they had the ladies eating out the palm of their hands hahaha!!!!, bastards!!:)

    show? what show? haha...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,799 ✭✭✭Tha Gopher


    Lundi- you mention they went on a night out. Id assumed by approach, you just meant plain middle of the day girl is walking down the street and the lad saunters over and attempts to get her into convo. Hell, if its talking to birds on a night out even when stone cold sober (if its early like) then yeah, Id say everyone does it, and there arent too many women who would be afraid if you said something to them in the queue for the ATM in an attempt to start a convo.

    However, if you did the same in the daytime, or sat right beside a bird on an otherwise empty bus, Id imagine theyd get freaked.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 3,144 ✭✭✭LundiMardi


    the last night was a night out, the other times it was just in the street... Daytime, stone cold sober...

    I don't mind guys coming to chat me up wherever. I think it's funny, it's unexpected and a decent change from boredom :P.
    when I feel like it, and just feel spontaneous hell yes I'll chat up some dude just to pep up my day/evening. I don't mind if he is short uber tall or plain looking. You got personality, you got my attention.
