What kind of stunt would instantly impress a female?

[daveyrocket]

Learn to dance.

Roy Blount Jr.'s favorite country song: "If I said you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?"

and his version:"If I said 'you had a beautiful body, would you hold it against me?', would you hold it against me?"

Perhaps, I think of it in a different light.

I do my "stunts" because I like to do my "stunts", my "stunts" being more a behavior than a stunt. If it happens to instantly impress a female, well then maybe there's a action-reaction attraction going on and I'll look into it.

Some of my typical "stunts" might be:
1. going out dancing all night.
2. walk up to the prettiest girl in the room and ask her to dance.
3. taking charge on a mountain bike ride.
4. throw out non-sequiturs at a party.
5. wearing camo shorts and a Hawaiian shirt (a la M*A*S*H) to the pub.
6. walk into a room with a flare of confidance and perhaps a tad of arrogance

the greatest way to impress a woman is by not trying to impress her.

I've been trying that one for 20 years...

Needless to say I don't think it works.

Bungee jump. Naked. While coated in ether, which you set afire just as you leap.

Challenge a platoon of drunken marines to hand-to-hand combat, and beat them all. I've impressed the heck out of every chick I've performed this stunt in front of.

It sounds trite and stereotypical, but earning a hundred million on the stock market is a stunt sure to impress most women.

I think this one would impress most guys, too!

By the way, how do you keep the rope from burning up before you reach the bottom?

The rope is a steel cable.

The rope is a steel cable.

Attached to steel ankles, I hope.

Sounds like an instant rafting guide.

"Oh, shoot, and there I was, footloose and panty free in the back of a raft full of girl scouts, with a set of class 6 rapids immediately in front of us..."

Be witty.

This must explain why a very good friend of mine adores me and tells me I'm not like other guys. I actually listen to her.

Yup, that's a great way to get all of the female friends that you want. Unfortunately, once they are satisfied with talking to you, they take off and bed down with some moron in a cowboy hat or with a fat wallet. That's why I find it much more efficient to have married girlfriends.

 

[qspeechc]

Definitely not a growth stunt.

Trust me, I know.

 

[Viracocha]

Successful stories? Anyone?

I have one, but kinda an accident:

When I was young in high school, there was this limosine slowed down near me and the front-side window were rolled down. The chauffeur lowered his head and yelled, eh kid, know where *** street is?

I smiled back to him and said: I just moved here with my parents.

Then a girl in my neighboring class showed up right beside me, and she found me smiling. So she was like: what are you so happy about? What did you say to that guy in the limo?

I smiled at her evenly and said: I told him I'd rather walk.

Other primates like to display their goods to pick up the ladies. You could try getting yourself a nice trenchcoat and doing that. Would probably work better if you're into chimpanzee girls, though...

And if you want to live through the experience, don't try it near a playground.

 

[HayleySarg]

Heh. "Do you want to see my tekken video?" is what worked on me. I guess it wasn't a stunt, but he say that I played so her made a video and got his friends to comment on his "awesome skillz". It was pretty gutsy, considering I can still beat him.

I'm not entirely sure, but I may be an outlier. I sort of feel that it's hard to impress females. Not that the acts themselves are hard, but the line is so thin. It's very easy to cross it and become creepy, dorky, rude, egotistical, yadayada.

 

[Danger]

You probably wouldn't like my personal pick-up line, then:
"Is there any chance that your stand on meaningless recreational sex is compatible with mine?"

To my utter astonishment, that actually worked a couple of times.

 

[U.Renko]

flying, walking through walls and stuff like that.

however, be warned that it would also impress males.

 

[lendav_rott]

Sing "Blackbird" by the Beatles quietly on your own and "get caught" by her. If she recognizes the song, it means you can sing alright and she knows some culture.

 

[turbo]

I can tie a knot in a cherry stem with my tongue. Maybe not all that impressive, but still...

 

[lendav_rott]

Maybe if you could rub your eyebrow with your tongue...hmm, now that would make you popular.

 

[Chronos]

Best trick I ever saw was tipping a barmaid $100. Guaranteed fabulous service on the next visit, even if you can barely lick your lips.

That's setting the bar too high if you plan to revisit. Anything less than $100 is a disappointment. One thing I've noticed in life is don't have people expect things of you that you can't, or don't want to, do consistently.

Unless you were doing it by lowering your eyebrow down to your mouth.

lol NO. This is a horrible idea. Just like buying random girls drinks all night long...

Girls will gladly let ANYONE buy them drinks or throw money at them...and then they'll go home with the guy that convinced her to buy HIM a drink, not the beta dork who thinks a girl is into him just because she graciously accepted the drink he bought her or the $100 he flashed.

Many "bar/club" girls will be impressed by money & prestige, but this isn't the way to go about it...

 

[jim hardy]

Change her flat tire and don't 'hit' on her immediately after.

 

[member 428835]

by "stunt" you prolly mean line (judging by your example). something that i always say when picking up a girl on a date is "yea, you see that nice porshe over there? mine's the POS right next to it"

hahahaha love the limo...hilarious

1. I instantly disliked this post after reading the reference to "beta" vs "alpha".

2. I think the idea was to tip the barmaid at a place you frequent so that next time (and subsequent times) she'll remember you and give you great service. This will up your confidence since you won't have to worry about looking like a begging idiot waving your twenty in the air for fifteen minutes while you wait for your drink order (whether or not you buy a girl a drink). That will also make you appear more confident. And the fact that the bar tender is giving you lots of attention (for no apparent reason) could potentially translate to the girl you are chatting with thinking she should be doing the same.

Sorry, but that's how it works in the real world. Being alpha isn't a bad thing, my friend. It doesn't mean being a jerk. It means being confident, charismatic, and likeable. It means having the ability to walk into a room and have people gravitate towards you. To cause people to have a desire to interact with you.

You seem to be offended by the word "beta". Obviously I don't know you... but if you're offended by that term because you feel you exhibit the qualities of one who would be considered "beta", those can always be changed. Being beta isn't "bad" per se but it certainly won't help you gain companionship with females. To be beta is to be unsure of oneself. Not projecting confidence or charisma, therefore causing others to talk over you...or simply ignore you because, in there mind, you're boring and they'd rather talk to the person projecting confidence.

Tipping well at the bar is absolutely a good idea for better service. Tipping $100 is dumb and will only lead to girls taking advantage of him. You'll get better results by tipping WELL, making eye contact, smiling, and being confident to get good service and draw in the other women.

Ugh...I understand that there are real traits which a person can posess (or feign) in order to better his social presence. I'm even fine with the idea of describing them on a scale (for instance, alpha to beta) as it makes things easier when discussing.

What I find...not offensive but...annoying is this idea that I hear all the time that if you're not this "you're probably beta, man", or "look at that guy, what an alpha". Maybe it comes from the pick-up artist connotations, but it just seems a bit "bro-y" to me. Especially when it's used like

beta dork

Doesn't dork accurately capture the traits you were looking to convey?

And this:

gain companionship with females

Are you really just saying "getting laid" in a more elegant way? In which case sure, a confident expressive guy will score more than a "beta", but if you are talking about meaningful relationships, surely you know that this isn't the case...

I don't know. I'm just ranting now. I am not denying that there exists a distinction between so-called alpha and beta men. I'm just saying that there seems to be a widespread abuse/misuse of the idea.

Again though, I don't think the idea is to be showy with it. I think the idea was to discretely leave a big tip (doesn't have to be $100, I sure wouldn't tip that, but something big) so that the bar tender remembers you and may even point you out to other tenders. This way, the next few times you come in (or more if you continue to tip_smaller_but well) you'll have great service regardless of the crowd.

I also think the idea was to be used at a crowded bar where the bar tender doesn't care if you are "making eye contact and smiling". I don't think you're necessarily wrong, this method is a) costly, and b) not for every type of place and situation (don't do this at a Fridays across town which has 30 bartenders on a rotating shift, for instance). But a version of it could certainly help in some situations.

As long as you can lick hers...

"fabulous service" subject to interpretation?

 

[jim hardy]

Let us not be too hard on barmaids here ...

 

[StatGuy2000]

This whole thread is absolutely ludicrous, because the assumption being made is that to impress a female the male needs to perform a "stunt". As if somehow all women are the exact same!

That's not how real life works. In the real world each woman (and each man) is a unique individual with her/his own unique personality. The best way to impress someone is to show confidence, be outgoing, and talk to that someone!

 

[lendav_rott]

It's amazing how so many people can make this simple idea of talking to someone so bloody complicated. There's nothing to it, just talk to them :/

I as a female, agree with you. Confidence is always better then doing/saying something you're not comfortable doing.
