... she can? Really? That seems pretty damn high for something as variable as taste in partners.
EDIT: wait, that's a reference to how many guys on a university campus will accept offers of one night stands, right? It's still too high, or too general.
It's also irrelevant to the point I was making. You can point to different studies giving different percentages, but however you slice it a significant portion of the men she interacts with would have sex with her if she offered. So maybe 75% is only true for a certain demographic, but replace it with 10% for another demographic and it doesn't make a difference.
Oh, it certainly doesn't affect your point. I agree with your point completely. I was just nitpicking the numbers.
