    True or False?

    In my opinion, I'd say true:
    1. We're attracted to people with identical immune systems (or polar opposite ones)
    2. They play a huge role in our confidence growing up, and how we interact with those close to us
    3. This parlays in our desire to pass on our genetics, and the strongest immune systems look for the best hip to waist ratios or bust sizes, long time standards of female health and vitality

    I apologize if this is a little discombobulated, but we have so many old timers here I'm sure you know what I'm getting at.

    Aside from Wolverine I would have to say no. Our immune systems do not define us. Sorry bub.

    I should have elaborated when I said identical immune systems, identical is for companionship, opposite is for breeding and sexual desire.

    Women are attracted to men with the most different immune system to themselves to ensure their fittest offspring, it's evolutionary instinct that's been pre-programmed into them. A versatile immune system ensures you have the strongest chance of doing so, so that's why compatibility is so important.

    So basically, any guy who epitomizes health and smells good has a chance with any girl in the world. Any girl.

    So by your logic, women have weak or poor immune systems if they are attracted to healthy men?

    Guys with strong immune systems are attracted to curvy chicks. Just ask 50 cent and all his video ho's. The top echelon of society always objectifies women based on primal instinct, in order to ensure they have the best chance of passing on their genes and making healthy babies. You never see a sucessful guy dating twig like chicks from the cat walk. Look at crap the Olsen twins have been with, they would feel insecure being around men who aren't pansies. Primarily because that desire to breed isn't strong within those with compromised immune systems.

    Then you have the pansy artsy types like Jake Gyllenhaal who've grown so accustomed to poor immune systems like his decaying sister that his standards in women aren't very high (Reese Witherspoon, he definitely doesn't give a **** about breeding).

    It's just amazing how this world works.

    I'm sure this is not true. I am the unhealthiest guy on the planet but I get all the girls.

    I'd say women with poor immune systems (less curves, poor hip to waist ratio) settle for guys with weak immune systems because they know what's reasonable for them to expect. They'll be attracted to healthy men full of virility but the feeling isn't really mutual. And if it is, you can consider the man mentally weak. So when I see a guy like Jake Gyllenhaal dating the ugliest, most shapeless girls of Hollywood (Kirsten Dunst, Reese Witherspoon), I know something's up. He's got immunity issues.

    I'm kind of thinking out loud here, think of this as a rough draft of my postulation, I'll be sure to e-mail you when it all comes together.

    Girls often confuse sympathy for love. You appeal to their nurturing side. But more importantly, what type of girls seem to fall for you?

    Doesn't make sense. Wolverine likes Jean Grey, not very voluptuous. But then again if your postulation is true then Tim Tebow really is Superman.

    This is a dreadful line of reasoning. Immune systems influence sexual attraction, as evidenced by random celebrity hookups. Just a whole casserole o' stupid.

    This was probably much more true before perfumes and such overpowered our sense of smell.... and when a large percentage of children died before of infectious diseases before sexual maturity.

    I used celebrities to make it more relatable to the average joe, such as yourself, who has trouble conceptualizing things that aren't written in political newsletters. Think about all the different couples you've known and what draws them together from a subconscious standpoint. Don't fear things that don't fall square in the middle of your comfort zone.

    BTW, Jean Grey has amazing, powerful hips. Just begging to get impregnated.

    Spoken like a true Ron Artest. And your only example seems to be a celebrity and assuming that the only possible universal example we can understand you choose bubble boy. Come on make a better observation. How about good looks with good looks. Dudes with game hot chicks. Dudes with money hot chicks. Dudes coming up with random theories to explain why he can't get laid, Ronny.

    Strong immune systems in men translate into virility which translates into good looks. Or a stronger mindset than those who are more susceptible to the elements, which results in "game". Gold diggers want money so they can ensure a comfortable life for themselves and their offspring, and if you can make it to where you have gold diggers after you than I'd say your strong genes have a big role to play in your success. Cmon Scotty Brooks, use the thinking process a little before you get defensive.
