COSMO: What I Learned In April 2011

101 Things About Men: ORLY?! So Cosmo has this new monthly bit of 101 Things About Men, and I guess they've run out of things to know abut men because this month is a bit questionable. How He'd React If You Kissed A Girl 71% of men said that it'd be hot and they'd want to join in 29% said that it'd be a deal breaker Um, is there a third choice of "what else is new?" The Drink/Outfit Combo Dudes Can't Resist On a scale of 1-10 men scored the following drink/outfit combos. 10 - skinny jeans/beer 8 - little black dress/martini 8 - miniskirt/seabreeze 7 - pencil skirt/whiskey 5 - tube top/margarita Let's not forget the lethal combination of sweatpants/water. Dating Advice From A Hot Personal Trainer One personal trainer offers his advice on how to score a man at the gym, "Girls who are lifting weights or running really fast send the message that they are serious and don't want to be bothered. But girls who flow through the gym - you know, casually exercising and talking to people - send the message that they want to be approached." This guy sounds like a great personal trainer, don't push your body, instead kind of exercise but mostly socialize. I'm sorry but when I go to the gym, I'm not looking to meet a man; I'm sweaty, I have no makeup on, and I'm usually sporting one or more stains on an old high school t-shirt I picked out of a pile of my laundry. Apologize To Him To Keep Him Lastly, Cosmo offers advice on how to apologize to your man to keep him around, but I think my advice is a bit better suited for the situations. His Argument MO: He's Emotional, he tells you everything he's thinking. Cosmo's Advice: Say, "I'm sorry, I know you feel [betrayed/disappointed/whatever emotion applies], and I would feel exactly the same way." MissBleecker's Advice: Say, "I'm sorry, what did I do now to contribute to another one of your mood swings? Is it your time of the month?" His Argument MO: He keeps tabs on everything you've ever done wrong. Cosmo: Say, "I'm sorry I screwed up. It won't happen again, and next time I'll..." MissBleecker: Say, "I'm sorry I'm not perfect like you. Next time I just won't even bother trying to dominate you!" His Argument MO: He gets on his soapbox and is all about the "unspoken rules." Cosmo: Say, "I'm sorry, what I did was totally wrong." MissBleecker: Say, "I'm sorry, who made you emperor of everything that's right? Oh wait, that's me, and I say, you're wrong!"
