Some Humorous Tactics Men Use to Get a Woman's Attention

Some men do and say the oddest things to get a woman's attention or to strike up a conversation. Whether the man's interest is sex, romance, love, friendship, a casual relationship or marriage, some of the strategies used by individuals may be appealing to some women, humorous to others and downright weird to most. Depending on your age and intentions, I would like to meet you or the mating calls techniques may vary. Your main objective is to get the woman interested in you first, and then let nature take its course. Depending on the methods you use, you may blow your chances of ever getting to meet that woman who stands out from the crowd.

Years ago and maybe still today, whistling at a woman, to get her attention or to scare her away, was the manly or unmanly thing to do. However, one might continue to ask, "What does whistling accomplish, and does one think this type of communicating is appealing to women? If you are a member of the bird species, perhaps this type of behavior might work. On the other hand, if you are into birds, and she happens to be a bird enthusiast, then maybe a connection will develop. However, you would have to be a mind reader to know if she is a bird lover.

Then there is the Hi, baby, what is your name? This may not work, unless the female is an infant. Subsequently, there is the man who will wait until he passes you, and without warning will mutter "Hello." What is that all about, and what is a woman to do: turn around and respond to that man who is halfway up the block or run after him and ask Sir, were you trying to get my attention? If you are attracted to a woman walking towards you, make eye-to-eye contact and then say, "Hello." Better yet, do not say a word. Just keep walking.

If there is any behavior that will turn off most women, it is the woofing howling syndrome. These gestures usually occur among groups of men trying to outdo each other to see if women will respond. Their main objective is to draw a female audience and make idiots of themselves. If a man really wants to get your attention, he will do it when he is alone and not openly share his objective with other men. What would be the point?

This next approach makes about as much sense as a mosquito traveling to Mars. If a man is in his vehicle and sees a woman crossing, sometimes, he will start pumping the gas peddle to get her attention. This ploy alone is enough to make any woman become horror-struckand take flight. She might think your aim is to run her over.

Lately, the method used to get a woman's consideration seems to be evolving. In many cases, when a man sees a woman coming down the street, he will start to hum or sing a song. Do not get egotistical and assume he is singing to get your attention. He may be gearing himself for a record deal or thinking about auditioning for a spot on American Idol. However, the last thing a woman wants to hear is some man making a complete fool of him, especially if that individual cannot carry a tune, or the melody is unfamiliar. Yet, nothing can be more humorous than a man who approaches a woman at a bus stop and then ask, "Are you lost." Is this anyway to get a woman's attention?

What ever happened to a plain old "Hello" "Good Morning, Good Afternoon, or Good Evening with a smile and serious eye contact? This is not to say the woman would be in awed of, attracted to or responsive to a man, but these words and a sincere glance will certainly leave a lasting impression and may even be a great lead in to a possible dialogue, but only if the woman reciprocates.
