The unvarnished, real... bonified... honest to Joe, truth.

What is causing peak oil?

Women.



(Shields up Mr. Spock... the Gynaloids are bound to attack)

And here's how it goes...

I need wheels to get laid. Ever since Mr. Ford & company made the car for the common man, it's required, if a man expects to attract the attentions of a woman.

No Bus... No trains... No mass transit... period.

No ride = No Girl

End of story.

And not just any car either. No furry Eco-Friendly mini-cars allowed. They demand Hummers & Broncos & Corvettes & such.

What has been for millions of years a successful breeding strategy, has been turned on it's ear by the powerful and committed fairer sex, into a tool which drives consumption.

My own sex drive compells me to obey... who can deny it?

So next time you're at the pumps whining about the price ladies, remember.... it's your fault.

wow

you just brought lucidity to my peak oil vision

Here's some interesting recent evolutionary biologists discoveries regarding female behavior:

It seems that human behavior is a lot more variable than I orginally thought even though this is mostly about females of other species. It appears to me that that this behavior applies mainly to females in tribal socities with high male mortality rates. While Charles Darwian was a brillant scientist, you do have to watch out for cutural bias affecting your own views.

Nope....can't see that this is correct otherwise the Dukes of Hazard types would have taken over the gene pool by now and......hey, hold on, maybe that explains Specop!!

I may have been off base with the horses. Come to think of it, most the women you meet around horses are more into the horses than men anyway. But, come on now, a musician that can't get laid ? There's something else going on there. Even singers get laid.

[MonteQuest]

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('MacG', ' ')As discovered by Charles "Big Chuck" Darwin, those who are most successful are the ones who pass their genes down the generations. Female strategies to choose sperm donors and partners will just simply be there - those who choosed unwisely did not pass their genes on. On the other hand, the most successful male strategy is to just spread as much around as possible (and if possible, hinder other males from doing the same with arguments about "moral" and "responsibility" and such).

This is just the way it is, nothing to do anything about. You see it among animals also. Males fight with eachother, females choose the winner, or the one with the most affluent horns or feathers and such.

Aaron, this fag calls you on your hoax.


You straight guys are the ones who want the wheels, and you know it!

You project your needs onto the "bitches," blaming them for making you do what you've always wanted to do.

"Those damn women. If it weren't for their vaginal wiles, we straight guys would all be sensitive, non-materialistic types."

ahem

a female voice is desperately needed on this thread.

darwin got half of it, survival of the fittest. sexual selection is the other (ignored) half. women are attracted to who can tell the best story, write the prettiest poem or siing the the most compelling song. NOT who can drag the biggest stick, fight the bloodiest fight, or drive the biggest car. matt savinar wrote a while back women will be looking for who is the best survivalist. wrong. women will look for who she can confide in on dark nights. the geeky software developer has equal chance to the beefy whatever dude. its all about communication.

Aaron has got a point.

It is noticeable that if you have a nice car, that’s not a shopping trolley, but a large nice car you get more attention. In fact, I would say it’s blatant, so much so that having had a nice car or two - then unexpectedly getting the attention of, shall we say, Ladies I didn’t expect to says it all.

But it’s not just cars is it? Ladies are, by and large, born to shop. Not for any particular reason you understand, they enjoy the process of consumerism, like a mother hen feathering her nest. You might have some really important information to impart, but she’s staring into space, not because of the shock of the ramifications, but the fact she’s just got that new pair of shoes.

In fact, just the other day, I was talking to ‘her indoors’ about some mind blowing information I had on global warming, only to be interrupted half way through to be told ‘There’s some really nice fawn table mats at the farm shop up the road’.

The key of course is to have a nice car, but use mass transit to prove how ‘social’ and caring about the environment you are. No, scrub that, say you're going to the bus station to sort the local yobs, yep that’ll work.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('MonteQuest', '
')What you describe is the "struggle for survival". Darwin's "Survival of the fittest" has nothing to do with choice. It is about random genetic mutation. If you are born with mutated genes that tend to promote your survival and reproduction, then they will be passed on.

Being "successful" has nothing to do with choice, it is a random possibility that causes evolution.

[julianj]

Aaron's formulation is incorrect.

It should read:

No ride=no girl=no ride.

Killjoy is right though, and drag racing is a good case in point. We don't race to attract women, we race because of the desire to compete and crush. The fact that (some) women get turned on is gravy. Music works even better though - just look at Ric Ocasek for pete's sake.

[Aaron]

I bet if we took a poll of the general population, the percentage of women who would date a man without a car would be very small.

It's like some awkward habit that used to work for you when you were younger, that's now an uncomfortable & even embarrassing left-over.

Our adolescence as a species I guess.

OMG!!!!!!

It's Peak SEX!!!
