‘Cosmo Girl’: How to Attract a Dude Using Crap Ladymag Advice
Ladyfriend Cristen Conger, of HowStuffWorks’ “Things Mom Never Told You” blog, has a LOL video up today about how to attract a dude—using the genius advice of esteemed ladymag Cosmopolitan. The short version:
1. Dangle footwear
2. Put shoulders forward
3. Lower chin & look up
4. Rub shoulders
Sounds totally super sexy, right? But here’s the rub: it turns out—get ready—this is a big pink load of BS. (And Cristen has the science to prove it!) Enjoy!
