THINGS WOMEN FIND IRRESISTIBLE

Listen up, guys! A recent survey says women love it when you:

• Own a pair of really nice shoes and actually wear them.
• Brush the hair out of their eyes.
• Are able to hold a baby or push a stroller without squirming.
• Plan an evening out from soup to nuts, from finding a movie to making the dinner reservations.
• Kiss creatively.
• Handle our emotions with grace and compassion.
• Have impassioned, informed opinions about women writers and women's issues.
• Can distinguish between being courteous and being wimpy.
• Know how to inscribe a card with a heartfelt, personal message.
• Demonstrate respect for others by standing up when your mother comes to the table, giving up a seat on the bus for a pregnant woman, asking your dad for his opinion and really listening, etc.
• Show genuine, platonic interest in your female friends' lives.
• Are playful around dogs, cats and kids.
• Make the bed in the morning and fold the laundry -- competently.
• Offer juice, soup and TLC when we're sick.
• Do the come-from-behind cuddle-hug, just to say hello.
• Remember insignificant details, like our favorite color or flower, and make use of that knowledge.
• Are unfailingly polite to all members of the service industries.
• Offer us caresses and compliments for no particular reason.
