shiny pennies and magpie syndrome

I'm trying to understand the cliche that every woman wants man that will write her poems, save kittens, and other cheesy crap like that. Sorry, but thats not what is going to catch my attention. I just can't get into the whole metro, super sensitive, tight pants, long hair, manscaping stuff. I'm sorry (Actually, no, i'm not even going to appologize for this. so no, i'm not sorry) but I want a man. As the song says: "these days theres dudes getting facials, manicured, waxed and botoxed, with deep spray on tans and creamy lotiony hands, you can't grip a tackle box." That is true. I agree.

I read an article that was talking about constant visual stimulation that men deal with of seeing attractive women all the time. It compared this by saying " it's like every good looking guy you saw was also writing you a poem while saving injured kittens on his motorcycle." Maybe i'm thinking too much into this. But if Isaw a guy writing a poem, and saving injured kittens on his motorcycle, I would think "wow, he's cute. but obviously stupid." one just can't think that would be possible without endangering something. Not saying that theres anything wrong with motorcycles, bikes are good. They are fun, and they show a side of adventure. Saving injured kittens, well that is just expected of any normal human being in my mind, if a kitten is injured, one will save it if it can be done safely. Obviously. Doing so wont' win you any extra brownie points, its a given act of humanity. Poems? well poems.... you know my thoughts on that. enough said. So long story short, the comparison did not work in my mind, however I have thought of a beter way to explain it for my mind. that being:

imagine every good looking man you saw had a five o'clock shadow, was wearing a black stetson, and driving a black ford f-350 crew cab diesel.

superficial? maybe. constant visual stimulation? Absolutely.
too many shiny pennies. I suffer from Magpie syndrome.
