Ladies!
I just decided that once I got my Nobel, I am going to offer a (very generous) scholarship for young female biologists/neurologists/psychiatrists who are willing to make a research on a very important and crucial topic: What is it in men that makes them detect when you are unavailable? And: Why do they come in masses once you are unavailable?
(Please note that “unavailable” includes not only your relationship status, but also the mental state of “I really cannot bother getting involved with anyone right now”)
Imagine the power we had once we finally found that magic button. Because one thing is for sure – you can’t fake the “unavailability”. Just as they can detect the real thing, they can detect the faking. This male sixth sense is so strong that it sometimes scares the shit out of me. You know that “Where the hell did you come (back) from??? And why NOW????” feeling?
Yeap. So, get ready and start writing your exposés.
P.S. Gentlemen – was just wondering, is there a similar 6th sense feature in ladies?

Yes there is. Women now exactly when a man is not available and then start hitting on him.
to make it easy: Both Men and women need a partner to feel secure. But Men are indiscriminate hunters and women are selective gatherers. So men go out and shoot for anything that seems available (=showing insecurity) and women sit at the bar and look for men who radiate confidence. Hence women either hit on men who are confident because they are not single or because they are macho and only fake it.
This is the biggest dilemma in dating and the source for proverbs such as “Men are like toilets: either crappy or occupied”.
Oliver, you use such a nice allegory
total agree to Oliver. Unfortunately there is a rise: when you go out and the only women you find sexy are freshly fallen in love – with somebody else, not you. Or married. Or both, having young children. (mostly not yours, but who knows)
Otherwise the ones that come close to you make you run away or yawn. Or both.
So the toilets-proverb is also for women…
Yes, concerning this women and men are equal.
