Not sure what Kendall said to get flamed. Hey, if he's been approached by some lass trying to pick _him_ up, he's said no thanks and she's got all huffy, then that's a valid bit of info. Can't say that generalising for all women is valid, but anyway. A couple of my friends at uni were 'predatory' girls, and I have to say they'd have been surprised at getting turned down.

Interested to hear about the Rules. I saw a thing about it on TV, and I was halfway between being pissing myself laughing and getting angry. In the UK we have something similar called Debrett's, which gives rules on etiquette (how to fold a napkin, even how to eat fruit!) which gets a similar reaction. I have to say, if the ppl thinking these Rules are so shallow they think men will only be attracted to surface stuff like that, then they're very sad. It may actually be a plan for finding someone for casual sex - surface stuff is fine for that - but for a relationship you can forget it.
