Agree?<br \/>\nDebate and debunk his ideals all you want, but come on guys, we all know that being\u00a0enchanted by the female form has been a fixation for society for centuries; not only do\u00a0men admire women, women also admire other women. But it\u2019s as sure as water is wet- men are hardwired to check women out \u2013 a primal instinct, if you may \u2013 and those\u00a0who say they don\u2019t \u2013 pfft.

But yes okay, date night requires that little extra rainbow dust to exude\u00a0that incandescent charm (secret\u2019s out, guys!).<br \/>\nSo question is, how much of it is noticed? What parts of your carefully conditioned\u00a0attributes are picked up on his radar and what is it about you that\u2019s a deal maker or\u00a0breaker? Wanna know?
