The idea that men pay attention to supermodel shaped women is (1) sexist (2) very mistaken. Do you know any men in real life? Unless you're just trolling, I find it hard to believe that you actually believe this.

Do you know how to distinguish attention from horndogging? Hint: attention is that which is paid to the subject of the conversation. If all you can remember afterwards is "bow chicka wow wow", you're doing it wrong.

  Years ago I worked at a gas station, one night they sent down 2 Miller Lite girls to do promo. If you bought a case of miller light you got to take your picture with the girls and got a free magnet etc. They were there for one hour before moving on, we emptied our entire stock of Miller in that hour.Guys were coming in for weeks asking about when they'd be back. "Horndogging" or not, sex sells and it isn't going anywhere.

  If you think it's a black and white "HURR TITS" vs "Quite interesting, madam. Please tell me where I might subscribe to your newsletter." rather than a spectrum therebetween, you're sorely mistaken. Marketers have (I can only assume) found that triggering the former to lead to the latter is a working strategy (they do tend to at least try to base their actions on observed results). Even if that's not the case the concept that there's a dual throw switch for power between the gonads and the brain seems pretty silly and needlessly underestimates men (though it sort of overestimates them at the same time I guess...).

  It is possible to do both - e.g. talk to a hot chick who is also technical about C++ templates ... and simultaneously about how to bang her. A man has both brains and balls, to expect that he can switch one of those off or pretend it does not exist is unrealistic. (Obviously, this does not excuse a man if he sexually harasses a woman or otherwise behaves badly.)

I believe it. I find supermodels completely unappealing.
