Is there any better babe magnet than a toddler?

Asked by Adirondackwannabe (36713points) August 9th, 2013

I was pushing my nephew’s stroller at a recent festival, and I got so many smiles and some touches. I’m not going to use him like that but it was amazing how many people give you the right of way or just step back when you’re pushing a kid. Just have fun with this.

I had a quadriplegic friend in a wheelchair I used to push around. He would start conversations in bars with ladies and say really dirty things, because you can’t stay mad at a quadriplegic, and he had unlimited pain meds.

Saw way more strange boobs strolling him around than pushing my twins around the mall.

Puppies.

Maybe for some for me I’d run in the opposite direction!

@LornaLove I agree

For me, it’s a guitar. Well, they have to be playing. Not just carrying it around all over.

@LornaLove How come. And he is an amazing kid.

Free chocolate.

@talljasperman You never give chocolate or peanut butter to a toddler unless you have epipens handy. It’s not worth. the risk.

Here’s an odd twist, when I was 17 & got my first car I found out that quite a disturbing number of lads of the same age would put a baby seat in the back seats of their cars.
None had any kids, but their twisted logic told them it would attract the babes.
Bloody delusional idiots that they were.

Toddlers will get you smiles and maybe a squeeze but you won’t be going home with any of the women you meet. A puppy or ferret can seal the deal. Or money.

@ucme Is your wife worried now?

ucme's avatar

@Headhurts Nah, she knows i’m only kidding…ish.

@ucme I meant with Kelly being single again ;-)

@Headhurts Ahh, but she does a “kiss & tell” book, spreading blokes names all over the papers…might still be worth it though, phwwwwoarrrhhhh!!

No, but a young, small furry animal (kittens, puppies, ferrets) works well, just not as good as a baby.

I would think that it wouldn’t be a babe magnet, with regards to attracting a potential date, only a BABY magnet, because most of the women will think the baby is cute, and you are sweet, and would assume that you are a wonderful, happily married man.

On the other hand, if you were alone, walking a cute, scruffy, little cuddlly dog, like This One you’d have a much higher chance of the woman wanting to ask you out, or vice versa.

Yes, a newborn is better than a toddler.

And kittens! I’m a sucker for kittens.
