Alas, there are a couple I still don't understand - #51 and # 52. What does "Bro-Code" and "Moist" mean?  ???

I wondered about "moist" too, Kerry. I figure it means sweaty or just that kind of nervous dampness some people get. We call it "clammy" in the South. But I don't know if that's what the particular word on the list means.

Crocs should be worn only by little girls aged 5 years and under. ...

Jeff Wrangler:
So how long is gonna be before someone makes up a list of what makes a woman undateable?

Or is that too misogynistic?

I say, "Sauce for the goose. ..."

My first candidate for that list would be having three or more cats.

Even two seems unnecessarily excessive. ...

Actually, I was just thinking I'd like to see a list about women! Yes, if it were written in a douchey way it could be very misogynistic ("Anything smaller than a D-cup" or whatever, but if it were written by imaginative and intelligent people it could be interesting.)

Also, although the list above about men ostensibly represents a woman's POV, I was wondering how men here feel about it. Are those deal breakers?

I think its a bizarre mixture of the silly and the serious. Some I just don't get--and I don't mean I have no idea what the writer is talking about. For example, I don't get the objection to carrying a cell phone at the waist. Don't they sell holders made just for the purpose of carrying your phone on your belt?  ???

Some of the items could be deal breakers. I hate sandals--or mandals--PERIOD--so I'd never give a guy wearing sandals with socks a first look, let alone a second. (Yeah, yeah, I'd have to give him a first look, otherwise how would I know he was wearing socks with sandals?  ;D )  And flip-flops? Don't even think of going there. I can't even stand them on women.

(Today is graduation at the University of Pennsylvania. On my way into work this morning I passed a young woman in her cap and gown--and flip-flops.  :P )

Boxers are dorky. I wanna see basket and butt!  :laugh:  And any man who can't wear briefs is probably undateable because he's overweight, not because of his choice of underwear.
