22. The pickup has been going well. Later in the night she leans in and begins making out with you passionately. You feel like a king and your jeans suddenly feel much tighter. Do you:
(A) immediately grope her boob in return.
(B) continue making out with her for as long as she wishes.
(C) kiss for a little bit then push her gently away and look distracted for a second.If you answered (A), subtract a point.
If (B), no points.
If (C), add a point.
Ahem, I'd negative 1 for "boob groping", too, but only because my boobs are not for "groping". Do not grope. No groping, seriously. There are like 1,000 other things you could do to my boobs that I might enjoy, groping isn't one of them. Also, "in return" implies that she is responsible for your kingly, jean-tightening erection and the boob groping is some sort of reward. People never to have sex with: Roissy!
B) is the wrong answer, too. Keep making out for as long as you want to and she wants to. Making out is a group activity. This answer is caused by the notion that men feel desire and women don't, so men will want to make out until their lips fall off and women are just doing them a favor by making out at all.
C) is . . . weird. Um, "look distracted"? I can't even imagine what I would think was going on there. Is he questioning if he left the burner on? Is he having a stroke? Did he just remember he's married? Any way this pans out, so not hot. Do not ever give me the impression- while making out with me- that I am not tops on your mind. Not at all sexy.
23. You go to a bar. Twenty feet away are a pretty girl, a fat girl, and an average guy talking amongst themselves. The pretty girl briefly eye flirts with you. In reponse, you:
Fat girls, no one loves them. Except literally half the men I know. Seriously, in real life, I know as many men seriously turned off by my size as there are turned on by it. Fuck you, Roissy.
24. Who do you address first?
WHOM! WHOM DO YOU ADDRESS FIRST! "Who" is a subject! "Whom" is an object! The subject of that sentence is "you", therefore "whom" is the object.
25. After getting the whole group engaged in conversation and having a good time, your target blurts out “Hey nice pink shirt! Are you gay?” You:
(A) say “No, I’m not gay!”
(B) ignore her.
(C) say “OK, who brought their little sister to the bar!”
I actually agree with C) being an acceptable approach, but not for the reason Roissy does. Roissy just generally believes that being rude and dismissive to women will get you sex0red (not in my house), but the question in the example is rude, so have at it.
26. In the middle of the conversation you have to pee. You say:
(A) “I have to go to the bathroom. I’ll be right back.”
(B) “Excuse me.”
(C) nothing. Just go.
C) is the correct answer in Roissy's book, but if you did that to me, I'd simply ignore you after you got back. You don't have to tell me you're peeing, but "Excuse me" is simple manners. If you don't think I'm worthy of 2 words worth of manners, fuck off.
27. You’ve managed to get her outside your front door. There is obvious sexual tension. You want to close this deal. You say:
(A) “So, um, ah, see you around.”
(B) “Why don’t you come inside?”
(C) “I’m thirsty. Are you thirsty? Let’s go inside and taste DC’s finest tap water. But you can only stay for a minute, I have to get up early.”
C) is the correct answer, and if you tried it on me, you'd get maced. At the least. That is rapist tal- ooooh, got it. Yeah, so the correct way to use this test is to give it to prospective dates and anyone who scores over a 0 is a potential rapist, change your phone number. Useful!
In the interests of full disclosure, I tested my husband and he gets a -2: -9 to 0: Lesser beta. You don’t immediately disgust girls; they just don’t notice you. With much painful effort you can redeem yourself. My husband was quite surprised to learn that "redeem" means "turn yourself into a rapist".
