Vitaly's funny, but the white Spyder video is definitely a setup. The black Spyder one might be legit.

If this was true, there'd be a lot less lonely guys out there.

I'm am running a 2005 SL 500 right now, not in Lamborghini territory but a nice ride none the less ( except for the maintenance costs) I always enjoy parking on Granville street and then waiting for some kid in his 20's stand by it while trying to pick up girls, if I'm feeling evil I'll wait until he has one on the hook then use the remote to chirp the alarm and freak them out.

Why throw a hockey stick in his spokes?
Let the kid make his kill.

Sounds like you're really fitting into Vancouver.

Let's do the same experiment with two women approaching men: one that looks like she was designed by Ferrari, and one as big as an SUV. Then we will almost certainly prove that most *humans* are shallow, at least when it comes to what they look for in a sexual partner.

PS: myself included. Which is why I'm not going to judge so-called "gold-diggers" when I'm equally shallow, just in a different way.

Nice try but it's not quite the same. While there is a contingency of men that like heavy women most men will desire the more attractive, curvy woman. I don't believe picking the woman that that you find personally more attractive is shallow as most women would do the exact same thing in that scenario. As long at the attraction between the Ferrari woman and the man is mutual that relationship has a chance to be successful for both parties.

A woman choosing to be with a man she isn't even attracted to and doesn't necessarily like solely on the basis of money is shallow. While she gets the money and he gets the hot woman the relationship as a whole is a fraud as it's more of an arrangement than a relationship.

You say "isn't even attracted to" and this is wrong, wrong, wrong. You're redefining "attraction" to "physical attraction", which confirms the point I'm making, although doubtless you will continue to not see that point.

Some women define wealth as the most important part of a man's attractiveness and suitability as a mate. Some men define physical beauty as the most important part of a woman's attractiveness and suitability as a mate. There is no objective, nor moral, reason why either worldview is superior to the other.

We have a yellow Murcielago in stock here at work and I just took it out for a quick spin. The amount of attention it gets unreal especially from the female variety. It would honestly be like shooting large fish in a small barrel. Sorry ladies, I'm taken.

It's amazing in town here there's a large number of international students who's parents have dropped them in the country with a flashy apartment and a set of keys to a brand new sports car. The number of times I've seen a guy drive up alongside a girl, honk and she winds up hopping in is astonishing.

And here I am in my little hatchback.

Spoiler!
The part that bothers me most about this is that you assume they're whores. Women are looking for security, certainly. If a man can afford a nice car, it's a safer bet to assume he will be able to provide financially for her. You also notice that most men with money also have trophy wives... So what does that say about men? That they're superficial. Women want security and men want sexy. Seems to me the smarter option is security.

You sound bitter Tyler. The girl who left you for the man with more money, probably didn't do it for the money but for the way you treated her.

I am not sure I fully agree that wealthy men have trophy wives. I am going more by wealthy CEOs, but they seem to marry fairly intelligent, educated women who are not necessarily hot.

Trophy spouses are maybe more a Hollywood / celebrity kind of thing.

Probably because they realize how much it is going to cost them to get out of that error. Cost benefit analysis in action.
