Will! Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 A woman I work with shared the fascinating insight the other day that women judge men by their cars, watches and toasters. Cars and watches are obvious, but toasters is a new one to me. In the interests of science, I now want to find out what toaster makes a man most desirable to the opposite sex. PS Currently I don't own a car, a watch or a toaster. I am hoping this makes me an enigmatic man of mystery. PPS Apparently kettles are of no consequence.

Executive Sadman Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I always thought it was supposed to be shoe's. Or maybe thats a myth put out by the shoe industry and this is a myth put out by the toaster industry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rxe Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 If she's judging you by your toaster, surely that is too late to apply judgement? Or do some people take their toasters out with them on Saturday night? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will! Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 Did she know this when listing her criteria? I told her immediately afterwards. She looked at me with utter bafflement / disdain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Will! Posted March 16, 2015 Author Share Posted March 16, 2015 How about a Dualit? Truly the King of Toasters! There was a Dualit in the kitchen of my hall when I was a student. It looked the business, with heavy-duty stainless steel and a manly knob for lifting the toast out, but was in fact rubbish, because the heating element often broke resulting in several minutes of anticipation before the disappointment of limp, untoasted bread. As for judging men by their toasters, now I come to think about it... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chronyx Posted March 16, 2015 Share Posted March 16, 2015 I've got a car, but no watch and no toaster. Such a loser. Same, or a house in which to put a toaster. I suppose I could put it in the van, but the fan heater I use to defrost it might get jealous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Frank Hovis Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 My toaster came with the house, I don't actually think I've ever used it as I make my own bread and prefer it untoasted. She wouldn't be interested in me then - dusty, second hand, and probably doesn't even work properly Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mrs Bear Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Re women who judge men by their cars, I once read an article about a very successful bloke with his own business who had so little time for socialising, he tried a dating agency. He didn't want to advertise his financial status so he left his own expensive car at home and used an ordinary one from his business car pool. The date went well, but the woman told the agency person afterwards that although she had liked X a lot, she wouldn't be seeing him again since she couldn't handle having a boyfriend with an ordinary car. I later worked a similar episode into a successful novel. I had a minor-character bitch who needed her comeuppance - and I made sure she found out her mistake afterwards!

whitevanman Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I like to think women judge me by the size of my telescope. (It's an 8" dobsonian reflector, in case you were wondering) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrPin Posted March 19, 2015 Share Posted March 19, 2015 I like to think women judge me by the size of my telescope. (It's an 8" dobsonian reflector, in case you were wondering) I think many women would rather look up a telescope, rather than hearing about your gearbox, what time it is and toast!! For the Non-stromomers here, I would like to point out that 8 inches refers to the diameter. I'm only a 6 incher myself! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
