I then, objectively as possible (based on physical appearance alone…no points for being nice), rated each girl on a scale from 1-10. PS, this is not graded on a curve and there are no 10s cause that shit is just unreasonable.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;Results:&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;6&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;3&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;13&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;32&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;22&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;56&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;34&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;19&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;8&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;0&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;h4&gt;Here’s a cute little bar graph showing the distribution:&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://i.imgur.com/0EKRr.png" title="Hosted by imgur.com" width="80%"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The average turned out to be 5.6 with a standard deviation of 1.8.  I was expecting to see the average come out around 5 and was surprised to see it this high.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;Going further&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I decided to go a step further and place each lady into one of four groups.  Based on what I knew of that female (which in some cases was limited to minimal Facebook interaction) I determined the maximum level of relationship I would ever be willing attempt with that female (disregarding all current roadblocks including marital status or sexual orientation of said female).  The 4 groupings are self explanatory:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;Acquaintance - For someone I prefer as a Facebook Friend at the most. These ladies are the one I avoid in person interaction with.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Friend - Platonic friend, you know what that means so don’t play dumb.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Datable - I only use this term because I felt cheesy putting “hittable” on an excel chart but I really mean hittable.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;Girlfriend Material - This is the highest rating and needs no further explanation.  This is also known as “super hittable.”&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;h4&gt;The chart:&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img title="Hosted by imgur.com" src="http://i.imgur.com/RJ2fS.png" width="80%"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Here are the raw numbers:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://i.imgur.com/R3655.png" title="Hosted by imgur.com" width="80%"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;By Race&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;I broke it down even further by race. I used Asian, Black, White and Hispanic as my groups…yes I know that there are a whole lot of generalizations there but I don’t really have the time to sit there and get more granular than that.  You’ll just have to live with it. Here are the ratings and then by race:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img width="80%" title="Hosted by imgur.com" src="http://i.imgur.com/XFZXE.png"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img width="80%" title="Hosted by imgur.com" src="http://i.imgur.com/4kghO.png"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And classifications:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&lt;img src="http://i.imgur.com/bEbad.png" title="Hosted by imgur.com" width="80%"/&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;Takeaways:&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;I am slightly more attracted to the Asian and Hispanic girls on my list than I am to black and white girls on my list.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;When it comes to girlfriends, the late &lt;a href="http://twitter.com/crief"&gt;Crief’s&lt;/a&gt; rule of 7 or better holds true for me.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;If I think you are ugly, I probably wouldn’t mind not being your friend.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;The proportion of gf material level girls across all races was fairly close, with a slight edge to Asians and Hispanics.&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;li&gt;I prefer being friends with Black and Hispanic girls on my list over the White and Asian girls.  *Note: the Asian portion of my friend list has a large percentage that actually live in Asia which limits my ability to interact with them and had a strong influence on their classification.&lt;/li&gt;

&lt;p&gt;1. My ad was posted in Los Angeles and no one in L.A. says “top of the day”.  Thats like some shit from an old British movie.  In reality, people just ask about the item, they do not bother with a greeting at all.  2. You asked if the “item” was still for sale. No one legit would refer to it as an item.  That is a very generic word that only someone who is mass emailing lists without actually looking at them would use.  Also, people that actually want the phone don’t ask this question.  They usually ask if I would accept a lower price, ask what time I can meet with them or some other specific question about the phone.    3. Also, you used the phrase “kindly get back to me”.  The only people i have ever heard use the word kindly are people that try to scam me out of money on craigslist and Frank Fontaine from the Xbox game Bioshock.  No one here talks like that.&lt;/p&gt;

It will be a secured money order. Thanks&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;How does it work?  It sounds like escrow.  If you want to use an escrow service (escrow.com) thats cool too.    Let me know if that sounds better.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;I haven’t had any experience with xoom.  How about we just wait till you get back from London and you can meet up with me and give me cash for the phone?  That way you can test it out to see if you like it first.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The problem i have now is my wife.She cant wait for that long to get the phone.i dont know why you dont wanna deal with paypal if you are scared of doing any other payment.Paypal is the most secured.it is transparent and very open.Paypal is widely used here in the states so theres nothing to be afraid of if you cant do xoom money order.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Thats amazing, what a coincidence.  I played tight end on the football team with you.  I remember when you scored 4 touchdowns in that game.  That was amazing.  What ever happened between you and that redhead chick?&lt;/p&gt;
