I'm a little surprised that the word "zombie" is more of a turn-on for women than "literature."

  And I suddenly have much greater hope for humanity: "ur" is the biggest turn-off.

    Yeah, women hate it when you try to start a conversation by talking about ancient Sumeria. (Cambodia, too, judging by the unpopularity of "wat".)

      See, if you'd just messaged that to me on OKCupid, I would be amused and totally reply.

  I imagine this is related to GSOH, where zombie references are automatically hilarious. More surprising to me is that "pretty" is a win while "beautiful" is a loss. Is that coming on too strong?

    Keep in mind that "pretty" has multiple meanings.
    • seldo 17y ago
      e.g. "You look pretty awful"

      So using the mild intensifier "pretty" is quite appealing to women, eh? How interesting...

    Actually, I'd guess this is selection bias, people who like zombie movies searching for others who like zombie movies.
