Remember the last time you told your buddies that the hot girl you talked to at the bar was "actually really cool". You shouldn't have had to say "actually", and she wasn't "really" cool.

Some of our female readers at crisisofthewest.com have expressed feeling like we tend to "bash" or "hate on" women. We here at The Crisis do not dislike women. We dislike mindless, shallow, greedy, self-absorbed women. We feel the same about men who have these characteristics. In essence, we dislike the women that women dislike. We are talking about the (seemingly) hot little cliques of girls who frequent trendy bars where they don't wait in line, are aloof bitches, have next nothing of value to say, and love cocaine. This is not the majority of women. There are plenty of fun, cool, confident young ladies out there. Why, then, does it seem that we fellas are always attracted to the girls who have the least to offer? The answer is that we're just guys, and can't help but be attracted to "hot" girls. The problem is that, with women, hotness is inversely proportional to coolness; the more attractive a female is, the fewer redeeming qualities she is likely to have.

To understand this age old dilemma, let us first look at the hot girl from a developmental standpoint. And by hot, we're talking about a full on 8 here. The real deal.

For her entire life, a hot girl receives a most intense special treatment based solely on her looks. She never needs to be friendly, interesting, or work hard, because doors automatically open for her, people want to be her friend, and her life is essentially consequence free. A hot girl can smile her way into a job, and cry her way out of a speeding ticket. Literally every single male that has ever seen her has had fantasies of having sex with her. Probably even gay dudes.

In more ways than one, hot girls are like retarded people. When one is brought into a room, guys aren't really sure how to act. Normal Laid back conversation comes to a screeching halt, everyone is hyper-aware of the situation at hand, and knowing looks are exchanged. When they leave, it's the first thing that's discussed.

It is no wonder that these (special) women have developed quite differently from normal girls. In fact, it is downright amazing that any of them are even functioning human beings. If every woman hungered for us sexually everywhere we went, we would have died of super-herpes fifteen years ago.

Not only have less attractive women not received similar, psychologically-stunting treatment, but they've also been forced to find a way to get in the game. There are only so many guys to go around, and if you were not born with a decent face, an unnaturally thin frame, blond hair, and perky breasts, then you had better come up with another way to snag a dude with earning potential. Hence why most of the girls who are fun to talk to, can sit down and watch a game, cook well, or give spine breakingly-good head tend to be of the more average looking variety.

Stupid Jaeger-bomb drinking meatheads are happy to date a hot, worthless girl. They themselves are too dim-witted to realize what is missing. Nice, awkward, prematurely bald dudes are down to date ugly chicks because most are decent guys who are interested in something other than looks (and they have absolutely no chance of getting anything better). What about the majority of guys who fall between these two extremes? Where do they look for companionship? The strong 6 is the answer.

A 6 is a girl who is attractive enough that, upon questioning, you would be willing to admit to your buddies that you took down, but not hot enough that you would brag about it otherwise. A strong 6 has one special characteristic that maybe only you find attractive. Perhaps this means she has a comically big ass. Maybe she can make her wuss fart upon command. Maybe she just has the sex drive of a North Atlantic salmon. The point is that she appeals quite specifically to you. A strong 6 has not grown up with the advantages of being traditionally "hot". This means that she likely will be more intelligent, more fun to hang out with, and will have less options, (i.e. she probably won't cheat on you until later on in the relationship).

Gentlemen, we encourage you to get out there and tackle some strong 6's. Slay a few former college athletes who have put on a few pounds. Throw a bag over that butterface at the club that knows how to shake her booty. Make the waitress with the clownishly large knockers understand that she can stop saving for that breast reduction right now. Take another look at the girls whose souls haven't been ruined by their own good looks. Leave those bitchy, unconfident, vapid little sluts for us, Cass and AJ, to sort out.
