In my post It’s rating men, I promised a description of all those “mankind”… Ladies, feel free to add your comments, gentlemen, feel free to spice-up the debate. Debate is good!

Rating 2 on Little Audrey’s “scale”: the Player!

A man who thinks he can have all the women he wants and is on a mission to prove it.

Where to find him: The Player navigates in different seas, but you’ll always find him in crowded places, where the choice of women is the widest: trendy bars on weekends, down the shore during the summer, or in a sports-bar during football / base-ball season.

How to spot him: He generally operates alone, sometime with a wing-man, rarely with a girl on his side. He takes care of himself, is often attractive and knows it. If he’s not trying to close a deal yet, he’s nonchalantly sitting at the bar and his eyes wander around.

How to seduce him: He’s probably the most easily seducable of the men out there. The Player LOVES women in general, especially when they show him some interest. A pretty smile and a cute dress, the job is done!

What’s the catch: Women for the Player are not about quality but about quantity. He often feels that the grass might be greener somewhere else and he won’t know if he doesn’t try. His little seduction game can be a way of dealing with a perpetual insatisfaction or simply an addiction to the ego boost he gets every time a girl surrenders to his charms. Don’t expect him to be available for you when you need him to, his busy dating agenda might get in the way!

Something a Player would never say: “Sorry, I don’t have a condom…” (or at least we hope so!)

    A good friend of mine is like this and he even tried to poach ladies I was talking to when we were out. Other than that this is a pretty good description.

    HHMMNN…interesting, but i think i’ll wait till you get to ten to see where i properly fit in.

    Food for thought: you rate the player at two (and i’m sure alot of women would agree), yet he seems to be very successful (@ playing women). What then does that say about the women he bags. Could it be that women are actually attracted to players regardless of how they would rate him (most likely after he has moved on to the next catch)?

    One thing to be said about women is that they always think they can be the one that will change someone… Even if they recognize the Player immediately, they always think it might be different with them. And there is something also to be said about the attraction created by success: you’re successful with women, you’re more attractive to their eyes. It’s twisted, I know, but I never said women were perfect creatures!
