But ...... But all those units referred to use numbers to quantify. Plus if you want to be technical about it, concrete volume is measured in cubic metres with compressive strength measured in newtons per mm squared.

Yeah, must go out to the quarry tomorrow and ask for six tonne of crushed stone, eight on a good day, though some people would call it five tonne.

So the answer to the original question is that women just stand there while the men ignore them and argue about civil engineering.

Women pull men now?

Lucy and Harry · 12-10-2014 07:43PM

the number would change through the night due to alcohol

Exactly. That 4 I spotted on the way in becomes a 9 on the way out.

just wondering how women think when they are out to pull a guy, for example if the woman is a 7, does she go for another 7 or does she aim higher e.g a 9 or lower say a 5 or 6. hate to use numbers but ye know what i mean.

I just called a quick meeting and have been authorised to speak on behalf of all women.

We talk to people we like the look/sound/smile/other infinite variable of.

We've agreed, it's universal.

Attractive girls embrace the 1 to 10 scoring system
The rest of the mutts resent it.

Some people just feel it's disrespectful to talk about other people in those terms, male and female. Even good looking people.

Mind you, calling people mutts is worse.

I've a question for the Committee of Women.
I know for a fact women only like money, but I also know for a fact woman only like looks.
How can both be absolute facts at the same time

also does that mean my OH is actually a man since I have neither

Is this a thread about tracker mortgages ??

Shakespeare's Sister · 12-10-2014 08:21PM

Well yeh obviously the better-looking you are, the more interest you'll get from the opposite sex. There's nothing new in this - the adding of the numbers thing (mortifying) to it is just adding a stupid "thing" to a well known phenomenon

Why do you despair? Why is it mortifying?

Honestly, I see no difference in it to saying someone is "hot" or "gorgeous", it's just a simplified version. Maybe it's just me, I've been told I have an autistic way of thinking at times. :pac: :pac:

NVA · 12-10-2014 08:26PM

Go hard or go home I always say. Though that doesn't really have great success rate though, hah.

The main thing to remember is that if a woman doesn't like a man, it's ONLY because there's something wrong with her.

It's very important to take on board that it's never the mans fault, just the woman being shallow or defective in some way. Great inroads are currently being made into making women understand this basic fact.

It may be that your OH is not a man, but is in fact visually impaired. Don't send her to SpecSavers and you're safe enough.

Oh it's really, really mortifying. You don't know how you come across but it's truly cringe-worthy that grown up people carry on this way.

Apparently if you don't embrace the "system", you're a mutt. Guest liked that contribution. Sad beyond belief. Really.

I'm in a bar and I see a man I like and might approach him because that's how humans work. I don't apply a number to him like I'm trying to solve some bloody maths equation. Attractive to me or not. End of.

we got a 5 or less here I think.
I really don't get the anger about this rating system.

Talib Fiasco · 12-10-2014 08:39PM

Ironically it's all just a numbers game and logistics is everything in the club/bar scene

Mister Vain · 12-10-2014 08:39PM

Numbers go out the window after a few drinks and sudden hornyness.

I'd give myself ten out of ten but I don't think that's fair so I'm going to say 11

I bet he'll say 7-9. 10 would be too obvious, even though he's trying to figure out if he has a chance with better looking girls with a higher 'number' than him!

It's the same as "oh he's gorgeous" or "oh he's a ride" etc.. Actually applying a number is less cringey imo.

Absolute nonsense. What system, honestly? It's not as if this is a topic that comes up in real life.

You approach him because you find him attractive. If you wanted you could apply a number out of 10, it wouldn't really make a difference. You think "oh he's good looking", someone else thinks "oh he's a 7/10" - same thing really.

TheBeardedLady · 12-10-2014 08:48PM

Nah, it's not. Believe me.

It was referred to as a system by another poster, hence why I put system in exclamation marks.

Exhibit A:

Attractive girls embrace the 1 to 10 scoring system
The rest of the mutts resent it.

We don't see eye to eye on this. No worries.
