WATCH -- Aug 3 -- New research out of the U.K. indicates that men who
spend money on so-called "worthless" gifts -- such as theatre tickets
or dinners -- aren't wasting cash. Researchers Peter Sozou and Robert
Seymour at University College London had males and females indicated
their prospective partners' attractiveness. Males chose gifts, in terms
of extravagant, valuable or cheap, based on their attraction to the
females in question. Female accepted or declined the gifts and then
chose whether to mate with the male. Males who gave valuable
gifts regularly, would be taken Advantage of and wouldn't be able to
accurately assess the females' feelings. But the offering and
acceptance of "worthless" gifts -- dinners rather than diamonds --
showed who the truly interested and attracted females were. So,
going overboard and blowing a lot of money is not a good idea. It sets
in motion a high financial precedent that may be easily
manipulated. Go easy on the spending and get to know someone new
through reasonably priced or cheap activities. FULL ARTICLE @ INVESTORS.COM

Mark Brooks: Good advice. As Dr Jama Clark would say, guys, don't be 'doormat.'
