I'm a nice guy! If the end of civilisation is necessary for me to secure a mate, those fools can go killing all day long, as far as I care.

I do have one teensy niggle, however: now I have this knowledge, does wishing for the end of society as we know it mean that I'm not a nice guy any more?

Maybe instead of focussing on whether nice guys or bastards are more successful at getting laid, we should look at why women are such shallow bitches?!! :-D

And what's more, I'm happily married, so I don't need to participate in this. Other than laughing at it from a disrespectful distance of course.

Better yet.

I'm a nice guy, and it takes the end of civilization for me to get laid.

Is it time to release that genetically engineered smallpox virus I've been working on?

Am I still a nice guy? Will I then not get laid because I destroyed humanity.

Krikkit anyone?

Mines the one with "Missing the big DA" on the back.

It is simple really. Back then nice guy won't survive, therefore, female seeks the strong one who can survive, which are sadly those bastards. If women were not "shallow bitches", human won't survive.

We are all born to be bastard,. Not good news to nerd like myself.

I thought the theory in societies where men and women freely paired up was that women were genetically programmed to find a nice guy to marry and raise their kids... then go and find a bastard to sire them.

Should this get a smiley face or a sad face?

So you're saying I should vote Labour and move to Dundee?

I think that it was summed up quite well by Scott Adams- women have no real desire to mate with engineers, but love to date them.

Chuck Norris, Ninjas, Pirates, or the waorani?

for ethically-challenged sociology research project.

Yanomamo vs. Maori vs. Masai vs. Waorani in ultimate fighting championship, village on village, last man standing gets the girls.

In my neck of the woods, I was rather hoping that the homicidal were put away. That's how it works on CSI anyway.

I'm a nice guy and married too, so stuff evolution, maybe its *gasp* cultural!

Its just the same as the Americans (who like to murder each other) and the Canadians (who don't).

Seems like there were three groups:

A. Warlike bastards

B. Ordinary nice guys

C. Clever nice guys

The researchers do their research after all the killing... group B is pretty much all dead, they don't get the girls, but they also don't get counted. Group C is clever enough to smooth-talk the girls, and therefore scores higher.

Alternatively, the really nasty bastards all lied about being nice guys, and anyone who disagreed had unfortunate accidents...

There seems to be a big mismatch. Clever women would like clever men, but they are usually incapable of talking sensibly (and unboringly) to women. I reckon it's the men who can hold a decent, funny conversation that get laid most, whether that be warrior or nerd.

Where's our Paris equivalent then, eh? Or is that on the ladies version of El Reg, Helen Reg?
