What Makes a Guy 'Undateable'? Oh, Any of 311 Different Things

Just what is it that makes us decide there will be no date two? Or, more importantly, date three, with a particular guy? Turns out Ellen Rakieten, a former producer for Oprah, and Anne Coyle, a copywriter -- along with help from dozens of unsuspecting men -- may have the answers. All 311 of them.

Guys Who Can't Grow a Mustache: Just give it up. It's the rare man who can pull off facial hair to begin with, and being in the running means you have to be able to grow it in the first place. Besides, that patchy little thing above your upper lip looks like a Chia Pet that didn't take. Just not hot.

Any woman who can come up with 311 different things that makes a guy undateable is going to spend a lot of time at home or with other women.

[relictele]

First ‘The Rules,’ now this. Do these women really want to start a war? I can bat out 622 items about women if they really want it. Let’s start with black nail polish....

That must be an interesting site, the fire wall won’t let it through.

[OKSooner]

Just more men-bashing.

Of course, I probably account for my share of those 311 and someone else's too.

‘Any woman who can come up with 311 different things that makes a guy undateable is going to spend a lot of time at home or with other women.’

That’s the entire feminist agenda....brainwash women into believing they do need men for anything.

[Izzy Dunne]

No kidding. What makes a woman un-dateable?

Having a list of more than 5 things.

[DeaconRed]

#1 is probably Liberal "Girlie" Man.
If not it should be. . . . .

[AU72]

And what makes a girl undateable?

[MrB]

There’s probably just one all encompassing reason...

they don’t act like women.

But then, women are wired to want a man who acts like a man, even though society/feminism tells them different.

Has the rate of psychosis among women gone UP or DOWN since the advent of feminism?

[dangerdoc]

From my observations, nothing.

[Tijeras_Slim]

They call me MR.312...

[SouthDixie]

#1 reason a man is undateable - his wife.

[Carpe Cerevisi]

Hey now, what’s wrong with a salad? Especially when it’s topped with meat?

[DeaconRed]

"brainwash women into believing they do need men for anything."

As long as they continue to make turkey basters, we ain't needed. . . . . . . . . . I think I'll just stay here and drink with Merle . . . . We're Gone. . . .

I might suggest that anyone making up such a list should have stopped well before reason 311 and looked in the mirror, so to speak.

[crazyhorse691]

At least for me marriage made me undateable because the Mrs. kept running the girls off. Just kidding, dear...really.

[andy58-in-nh]

She must be a barrel of laughs on a date. I’ve been married for 20 years but I only rejected women as potential dates for one of three reasons (as opposed to 311): left-wing politics, poor personal hygiene, or a humorless, hypercritical nature. I’m guessing these two broads hit the Trifecta.

[mad_as_he$$]

The first order issue with “undateable” men is that most were raised by women.

[trisham]

This kind of nonsense is exactly what one might expect from anyone associated with Oprah.
