Yeah, I think they need pick-up lines, like say "wanna see my 44's?" seriously, if a chick said that to me, the only answer would be "HELL YES!"

of course not. Though I do think that they are funny and can't hurt if you're not being serious about them- thinking they are actually gonna work. It's not like getting girls is a short process, either. I used some pickup lines on my current girlfriend the night I met her, but in the sort of friendly, goofy way of alleviating any possible tension building up and to keep things fluid.
That was about a year and 2 months ago. Still with her. Still use them on her when I find ones that make me laugh

You know what'd be funny? If a girl made a thread that says "Who wants to go on a date with me?" And see what happens. If The Escapist is in a lulzy mood, I guarantee there will be a yes, followed by a "get the hell away from my girl" and then "She's mine, you bastards!"
And then, A Challenger Appears! Will be shouted every second or third line.
Ladies, there are many types of guys in the world. First identify if your candidate is popular or unpopular, and if their moral sense is strong or not. This will tell you how much you have to agree to put out before progress is made.

Darn, I was going to throw this picture up too! Oh well, too slow I guess.Samurai Goomba said:
But returning to the topic, it took you this long to realize this? Gender roles have really kind of cemented this into society. Girls in my neighborhood don't go looking for partners though. They patiently wait for you to make your move and throw your self esteem up to their mercy. You better shower before you ask girls out here is all I'll have to say.
I follow the golden rule. There is a time and place for pickup lines. The time is never. You decide the place.
All seriousness aside, COME ON?! PICKUP LINES? SERIOUSLY?
How insulting is it for someone to walk up to you and preclude that your intellect is too low to understand a widely over-used statement is custom and sincere to you.

never... never in my life.

This thread makes me smile lol. I don't think girls need pick-up lines at all. Actually, nobody needs to use pick-up lines. If someone actually used one on me, it would weird me out a bit.
Yes, they do. It is a very complicated array of lines but if you stay with me it will pay off:nin_ninja said:
"Look, boobies" done.
Seriously: Females like to hide their cards whereas males show you what they have immediately (the answer: a hard-on). Females are thus in higher demand and have more breathing room to be little picky. Also, genetically speaking it is bad for women to fight for a male since they are stuck with a child for 9 months whereas the male can bang and go. Women should let the males fight over them as they do now.
In general a guy will give a girl a chance if they find them attractive, which is a decision made instantly when he first sees her. If she is attractive (or maybe even if she's not) he would usually be willing entertain the idea of a relationship.
Most girls on the other hand would not jump on a guy just because he was attractive to her, he would need to offer more.
It's just biology: females need a "selection proceedure" because they can only have one partner at a time (ie once they are pregnant that is the end until they have had the baby). Males can impregnate a theoretical infinite number of women (ie once they have mated there is nothing stopping them mating again with someone else), so they don't need to be picky.
This is still the norm in society today - promiscuous men are often called "studs" (good) or something similar and promiscuous women are called "slags" etc (bad). Men only start being more selective when they are looking for a permanent relationship, which then puts them in a similar situation to women.

It's really easy for girls to attract guys, all they have to do is just show up and stand around.
But this doesn't help account for the fact that in any given situation with equal split between male and female the men are the ones expected to make the first move.Kagim said:
I've always thought that the way it works now socially is pretty unfair in terms of risk.
If a girl goes out with a mind to finding someone then they just get dressed up and stand around until someone comes to them, then they get to choose to accept or reject. the only risk is that no one you find attractive approaches you.
For men the only way to meet women is to make the first move, the only problem is that this comes with the risk of public rejection (which can range from a gentle let down to a catastrophic public scene if the woman is feeling vindictive).
It's like playing a game were you can win or lose but the other competitors can only win or draw.
No, and honestly I don't think pick-up lines are effective for anyone. I think it's the way the person presents them self upon introduction.
Pick up lines don't work for either sex, so no, women don't need them, just like men don't. They never work. I can't stress that enough.
Yes, it is harder for women to pick up men, because men expect to be given the lead role. It's just that they hardly ever have to do the picking up; instead they make the men want to pick them up. Which works well unless they have a serious physical problem like obesity, or if they're restricted by religious behaviours and beliefs that regard wearing attractive clothing or generally being sexually uninhibited as low.
It's just the way things have been, in majority terms, since the beginning of written history. Feminism and equality drives are comparatively new, and have yet to truly hit the great masses in any undiluted manner. These new norms still conflict with great biological resistances that affirm our base gender roles.
I think that one day women will be able to be as forthright and direct with "picking up" men, and men will be able to respond to that by taking the opposite role for the evening, without it causing a mess. Some are already doing it, and I applaud them for that, even if it does generally create awkward social situations or go nowhere.
