Come Help The Singles Forum Build a Better Man Trap!!

[seoulsearch]

Hey Everyone,

You've heard of "Building a Better Mouse Trap" (at least, this is something we say in the USA.) But who wants to catch mice?! BEH!!! NO -- LADIES, we obviously want to catch MEN. Therefore, let's talk about Building a Better Man Trap!

I got this idea from reading a humorous conversation about effective "lures" or "bait" that would get a woman interested in a man -- and the men suggested things like shoes and kittens. Don't worry, I plan to write a female version of this thread as well, but I thought it would be fun to "trap," er, "bait", um, start, with the men first.

All things said here are in good humor and fun!!

What are YOUR ideas for Building a Better Man Trap?

1. First, from what I've been reading, it's important to make sure our trap is humane. You know, something like this:

Perfect! Not to mention, totally secure! We'll have our man trapped in no time!

* Do you have any ideas for the structure of a perfect man trap? Perhaps something rustic like this, or maybe an event or gathering where he'd feel a need to stick around for a while, such as a sporting event, a concert, a movie, or a fishing boat?!

What do you think would be a good location/structure/setting that would keep a man "trapped" for an hour or two?

2. Next, and most importantly, we need to talk about the most CRUCIAL part of The Perfect Man Trap -- THE BAIT.

After all, we know that all our hard work isn't going to do us any good without the perfect bait!

* What do you think would work as the perfect MAN BAIT? Fishing poles? Sporting tickets or equipment? Video games? GI Joe action figures? A case of his favorite Axe deodorant spray?! Gift cards for Home Depot or Radio Shack?

Let us know what YOU think would be the no-fail way of luring a man into the clutches, er, cozy comfort, of our MAN TRAP!

Obligatory Disclaimer: this thread is for fun, laughs, and entertainment only. It is in NO way meant to be taken seriously, nor is it meant to demean or belittle men IN ANY WAY -- remember, a female side of this thread will be posted in the future! This is just for fun!

Everyone is welcome to answer. Ladies, tell us, from your experience, what might work as a good man trap and what bait works best. Gentlemen, tell us what "traps" would actually catch your interest -- and which ones would bore you to tears. Give us ideas for lures you would spring for -- and bait you would pass right on by!

The two main questions of this thread are:

1. What do you think would work best as a the Perfect Man Trap?
and,
2. What kind of bait can we use that no man can resist?


For the good or for the bad, I bravely Googled "Stuff Men Like" -- and the first set of answers my AI host gave me were:

A. Personalized grill kits.

(I guess like these?!)



2. Custom wallets

3. Watch boxes.

I don't know if AI is slipping or if I just don't know enough men or enough ABOUT men, but I can't think of a single guy who would like any of those (although I suppose the diamond teeth are tempting!)

Rather, my idea for the PERFECT BAIT for the PERFECT MAN TRAP would be this:



Seriously -- what man could resist a good ham and turkey sammich???!!!

Everyone is welcome to answer!! (And if you disagree with this sammich choice, tell us what kind of sammich would REALLY work!)

Tell us what ideas YOU have for building -- and baiting -- THE. PERFECT. MAN. TRAP!

I'm down with that ham and turkey sammich.

Wanna catch a man? This is literally like the Pied Piper for Dudes. Just the first 3 or 4 notes, and he might even follow you into an opera ballet!

I cannot say I am into football but I did watch the Netflix offering about Brett Favre last night...

Hmmm, I'm not sure about the type of trap to use, but I do think the bait will be important. What kind of man do you want to catch? A finance guy? Bait might look like money, a cell phone, a briefcase, and files.
A sports fanatic? Season tickets for every sport imaginable!
A outdoors man? Fishing rod, gun, and a tent.
A theologian? Bible, books by R.C Sproul and Spurgeon, leather bound journals and feather pens.
Any man will do? FOOD!

I personally will be putting out some fishing rods, a gun, a tent, and maybe even some antlers.

I like G.I. joes. I won't say no to those if a girl got them for me. Surprised? You have no idea. I am in my late thirties. I walk the aisle of every toy shop looking for action figures. I bought some recently too. I keep it in my book cupboard. Sort of motivation, you know.

For some men, it will be meaningless junk. If you are dating a martial artist, combat sports athlete, they will have a thing for these. They could. So could guys who do a desk job. We're still kids. Grown kids.

Also you could provide financial aid if you are earning more than your guy? just kidding. Men do have a responsibility to bring food to the table. But if the woman can be supportive, men won't refuse.

All this depends from man to man.

All this is in good humour of course. If it comes to a real trap, that would be the talk. If there is a mutual ground reached by the two, then the trap is set.

superlative , mmm "bait"..

 

[seoulsearch]

I love that we are getting so many... "helpful hints" -- from the men themselves.

I don't want to jump to any hasty conclusions -- or accusations, but...

It's almost as if the men answering WANT to help us trap their kind, Ladies. I mean, I don't think they're exactly coaxing their unmarried brothers to play hard to get here. This is INSIDER information -- and they're GIVING IT AWAY FOR FREE!!

I don't know.

Should we be suspicious when the men make it a little TOO easy?

This post made me laugh out loud!

Especially the part about, what if we put out a man trap and, "ANY man will do?" Why, just bait it with "FOOD," of course!

LOL! NOW we're getting into some serious territory here.

I mean... Do you mean to tell me that men are DIFFERENT??? That they're not just all AI robotic cutouts that we can lure on in with just any old generic bait? What do you mean, men have different PERSONALITIES and PREFERENCES?! What, exactly, are you saying here? That men ca be be attracted to VERY SPECIFIC and DIFFERENT things???!!

Why....



Next think you know, someone is going to claim something UTTERLY RIDUCULOUS, like that men have FEELINGS and along with all these other little details, we're going to have to pay attention to THOSE, too!!!

I mean, MEN HAVING FEELINGS?!

I've never heard of something so preposterous!!!

THANK GOODNESS NO ONE in this thread believes any of these crazy myths!!!

Me sitting here figuring out y'all's game plan lol

Hilarious^


In my personal experience, home cooked meals from scratch. After all, I've been told that eating my cooking is better than eating like kings and CEOs!

In my most successful relationship, he had the beard and I had the cooking skills. We were both baited and trapped lol.

When we went into a pet store, the mister was greeted by the resident cockatoo telling him, "Nice hair!" and he fell in love with it. And he doesn't even have any hair!

Compliment men on things they don't even have, got it!!!

Oh c'mon, @Talljake, we even have the perfect personalized bait, er, I mean, gift, just for you!!!



Go ahead!

Pick one (or maybe a couple.)

It's perfectly safe, honest!

(Talljake has used a few avatar pictures before in which we can deduce that he has a certain penchant for flannel... Just a helpful hint for any lucky lady trying to land him!)

 

[seoulsearch]

After taking notes from the things that have been posted, here are a few more ideas for The Most Effective Man Bait:

1. A full tool box or cabinet.



I'm wondering, though, if we'd get more bang for our buck if we set out the tools one at a time (how many more men could we land?)

On the other hand, the men would have to a lot more effort into taking an entire tool box, thereby allowing for more time to spring the trap!

It would also be interesting, albeit frightening, to see what kinds of men we could lure with different kinds of tools -- i.e., a hammer vs. a wrench set vs. a chainsaw...


2. I'm not sure about you ladies, but I don't have the money for a sports car, so maybe these would work:

Not only are they affordable, but they'd also be easy to carry to our designated trap, er, "meet cute," site!


3. A full grill (and not the dental or automobile variety!)



I'm pretty sure that virtually NO man could resist not only a flaming grill, but also one that's full of meat. If we manage to trap the men AND have dinner with them, we can kill two birds with one stone and say we've also knocked out our first date with them, too!


I don't know how many marriages this Man Trap is going to result in, but I'm sure it's going to be... A LOT.




And all I can say to that is:



Even Mr. Burns agrees!!

 

[seoulsearch]

And because we certainly wouldn't want to LIMIT the variety of men we trap, er, attract (lest we be accused of leaving anyone out,) how about these other ideas:

1. As mentioned, for the sports enthusiasts.




2. And we can't forget the gamers!!





3. And for the computer buffs!




Keep those ideas coming!!

I think we've almost covered most of the bases.
