If I'm so attractive why can't I get laid?

“The observation that endurance running ability is connected to reproductive potential in men suggests that women in our hunter-gatherer past were able to observe running as a signal for a good breeding partner,”

"Then they photocopied their hands, and calculated their digit ratios -- that is, the length of the pointer finger divided by the length of the ring finger."

"What was found? Compared to the male runners with the highest digit ratios, those with the lowest -- or "masculinized" -- digit ratios were 24 minutes and 33 seconds faster on average."

My ring finger is longer than my index finger. And you can guess what is longer than both.

And still nothing. Maybe if I bought a new fanny pack....

Because your snot rockets are misfiring?  :blurg:
If you're not living on the edge, you're taking up too much room.

Well CH kind of has a reverse psychology when it comes to running ability. The faster runners are kind of dismissed as also rans while the stars are not as fast. It's interesting.

Anyway, while in college and after it's not just being fast that correlate, it's winning. No doubt the guys that win get a lot of attention.

Finally, I'm no Fionn when it comes to oogling but can still run a mean 10K (and mile to marathon). So fuck it.

It always seemed that the football players, regardless of how fast they were, got the girls.  Hockey players were a distant 2nd.  Then maybe basketball.  All other sports were fairly irrelevant.  Ftr, I played hockey and ran track.   8)
