This, my friends, demonstrates why the work of professional academics is so essential to understanding the world we live in.
Middle-aged men want younger women, often touting their intelligence and their high income. This is shown in research at Gothenburg University and Oxford University that studied 400 lonely hearts ads to see how men and women choose partners.
Research in the theory of evolution includes a number of accepted theories about how men and women choose their partners. Among the more established ones is that men place more emphasis on attractive appearance, whereas resources and social status are more important to women.
Thank you, Department of Zoology.
And as long as money is flying around for such critical research studies, let me be the first to float the notion there’s a rumor of men watching sporting events preferring to be served refreshments by females who look like Barbie rather than males like Alfred the butler. Where to start investigating this one? Who knows … I’m flailing about hopelessly, but I guess that’s why I never made it further than a B.A.

hey now, sometimes the common sense finding isn’t correct. for example, in this study, that woman are just as fixated on appearance as men.
Knowledge from this study coupled with $ 4.75 will get you a cup of coffee at Starbucks.
Stoner,
$4.75 will get you a no fat decaphinated latte frappacino. $1.80 will get you a cup of coffee
I am downright flabbergasted by this important study! Just reading it has changed my whole outlook on life! To think you can break into print just by reading the lonely hearts ads! Why did I waste all that time sitting in the musty stacks of the Library of Congress doing graduate research if I could have made my world-wide academic reputation just by buying a daily copy of the local press rag? Dumb me! Live and learn!
So I am not paranoid about all those old geezers staring at me and buying me drinks all the time! Where are you sugar daddy ?
Moony,
Before Viagra, men knew they were just a sugar-daddy. Now they believe they are suave and de-boner. Young, good-looking women go for the older men for a father figure….and the money. Most men know the truth; marraige=first time for love—second time for money (or the boat or beach house she owns).
I headed this off by robbing the cradle at the outset.

Just out – THE SARAH PALIN 2009 calendar!!

Hello there,
LOVE your blog! I will make it short & sweet. I am interested in advertising on it (http://novatownhall.com) with a text link on the sidebar.
Please let me know if you might be interested. If we can come to a fair price, I will pre-pay for 1 year via paypal.
Many thanks, cheers!
All the best,
Cassie
ACTivist,
What does Viagra have in common with Kings Dominion ?
You have to wait an hour for a two minute ride – ROFL
Not for me, thanks..
Cassie, money FROM the blog, now there’s a new concept for me. If you are advertising the Sarah Palin calendar obviously you qualify for the 15% “Good Guy” discount. Otherwise I’m sure we can come to a very fair price. E-mail me at joeDELETEEVERYTHINGINCAPS@novatownhall.com.
This must have been a follow-up to Time magazine’s cover story from a few years ago (frequently referred to by Rush) which concluded that men and women are different.
NOOOOO!!!!!
Tell me it’s not true!!!
Lovisa wasn’t hallucinating..
http://www.sarahcalendar.com/
Wow, thank you Lovisa and Dan!! The only question is do I ask for it for Christmas or just buy it for myself right now. One way or another, that calendar will be on my office wall on January 1 assuming I am still breathing.
I knew it, I knew!!!
Next we’ll see Joe heading to the Great White North, leaving his from robbed-from-the cradle wife behind.
Don’t forget your longjohns and anorak!
Of course, Sarah’s moose stew is always on the woodstove, so not to worry.
Think it would be more convenient for Joe if Sarah came to Washington, don’t you think ?
Since viagra was mentioned #10 by Moon.
Here is an interesting fact for males interested in or needing to take it,
Once you start taking it theres no going back.
You must continue to take it for plumbing to work.
This information by a Dr. that I had spoken to, one of my what if questions?
Marjorie
Did #16 for some reason make you think about Viagra?
No Lovisa,
Just passing info along, if you had read properly than you would have noticed #10 by Moon.
Perhaps you should have your eyes checked.
Marjorie
My subtle joke evidently didn’t register as such with you. (Sarah and Joe) Sorry.
– Eyesight not too bad, but thanks for the advise.
Watermelon, a girls best friend ?

Oh, the things one learns here!!!
Lovisa,
I did not realize you had a sense of humor.
so much for subtle on your part.
That good or bad?
Don’t know…..kinda hard to know one’s sense of humor when you really don’t know the person, would you say that’s true Lovisa?
