men, women, and the ladder theory

According to Ladder Theory, men are attracted to a woman 60% based on looks, 30% ECSPOQ (estimated chance she'll put out quickly) and 10% to other factors.

The bitter cynicism of it simply makes it a joy to read, particularly on a day when you're angry about the girl you were obsessed with leaving you behind so she can fuck the guy who cheated on her a few months ago, and made her cry for weeks while you tried so hard to comfort her and show that you were trustworthy. Not that I would know this from experience, of course.

IW - Intellectual Whore: 1, n.) A man who spends a great deal of intellectual or emotional involvement with a woman in an effort to gain physical attention from her. 2, adj.) Having the qualities or attitudes that an Intellectual Whore would have.

One of the reasons its difficult to stop being an IW, even after you've read the theory is because you've grown attached to your IP, and she has become attached to you as a friend

If she suggests that you call her, tell her you will, but don't. Yeah, it's a lie. Who cares.
