Okay... now how many of you actually came in here because that's cute? How many?
Me, I was seduced.
1: Is it -really- that attractive/alluring to have a woman bat her lashes at you?
Yes.
1a: if so... why?
It's a way for us men to know that a woman is interested in us, instead of them using subtle hints and such.
2:What flirting "techniques" actually work, and how effectively?
a: Flipping/showcasing of hair
I notice it.
b: Winking
I always get embarrassed with this one.
c: Blowing kisses
Very cute.
d: Small, subtle touches or brushes on the arm/hand/etc
Electrifying
e: Smiling
Nice.
f: Giggling/Laughing
If you laugh at my jokes, I'm yours.
g: Swaying of hips
*Blushes*
h: Dropping of hanky or paper or books or whatever
Never had that done.
i: Wiggle a beckoning finger (I'm running out of ideas, okay?)
Um... I'd go for that.
j: Blushing
I can never tell why they're blushing. Are they too hot?
k: Revealing clothing
I usually think them sleazy.
l: "Ignoring" you, except a few brief glances
Hate that!
3: Does any of the above bug you when females do it?
Yes, the revealing clothes and ignoring.
4: Can't think of any other questions... except... Okay, what flirting techniques work on you?
Laughing at my jokes, looking in my eyes, glancing at me often...
Bonus for any females who've wandered in: What techniques do you find effective or not?
The original Chivalrous Aiel
Stickin' it to the establishment.
Warder to the visually pleasing Golden Lily.
Aes Sedai to the protective SmeggyWulff
