1,000 Women Can't Be Wrong

A recently released survey of 1,000 women aged 18-30 undertaken by Axe Bullet asked where men should go to meet women. Not surprisingly, bars didn't make the top of the list (although 19% of respondents did say they'd met their last boyfriend in a bar). The runaway top choice? Coffee shops (53%), followed by bookstores (41%), the gym (40%) and the grocery store (35%). And 36% of the women participants said they wouldn't hesitate to recommend attending a place of worship as a way to meet someone.

The survey also asked about men's approaches, conversation starters and pickup lines, namely what worked and what didn't. An overwhelming majority (63%) said they'd wished the man they'd "shared a flirty glance with" had initiated contact. And even more interestingly, these women stated that location (11%) and physical appearance (20%) were much less important to them than the gent's style and approach (68%).

So how is a guy supposed to know a gal is interested or flirting with him? The ladies answered questions along these lines too. The top picks were eye contact and flirty smiles (69%), asking what he thought/for suggestions (37%), talking to his friends (26%) or casually asking what time it was (26%).

There you go gentleman: a primer on what women are looking for and how they are trying to get your attention. All that remains is for you to act on her come-hither body language; only 13% of the women who took part in the survey said the guys they were flirting with "got it".
