i am a pro
on a night out, me and my (male) friend were watching a group of three girls. one of the girls was not attractive. one was pretty attractive. one of the girls was very attractive and her dress wasn't covering her bum. she had attracted a pack of vulture-like men who were watching her every move (or mostly her barely covered bum).

my friend had set his sights on her. 'what should i do radiatorlady?' he asked.

'go for her friend.' i said sagely '1) she's wearing more but she's just as attractive. 2) she's just spent all night watching her friend get hit on again and again so she's probably feeling jealous and 3) just one boy making a beeline for her (and not her friend) is going to flatter her a lot. there is, of course, the chance that she is taken but there is no point going for someone else who is distracted by so many other people.'

'good point.' he says and goes on to succeed.

i feel like a treacherous member of the female side of the species. but i think that's the first term he's managed to pull this year and he goes out twice a week. owch!

Very "a beautiful mind"
Lovely little bit of game theory there.
