At a recent social event I had the opportunity to observe a rather remarkable and unusual female dating strategy, which led me to think about the topic of parasitical dating strategies. You are probably all familiar with the pairing of a pretty and an ugly chick in clubs. Such alliances do not seem to make a lot of sense at first sight, but they are mutually beneficial, considering that the pretty girl looks even prettier next to her fat and less attractive friend. The latter, however, gets a lot more attention than she otherwise would. She is there for Chad”s friend who is “taking one for the team”. In this scenario, both win.

The standard example is clear, but my observations where of a pattern I had not encountered before: A very tall, slim but somewhat plain looking woman was paired up with a short woman with an absolutely banging body. The latter hugged her friend almost inappropriately often, and sideways, so that you could not fail to notice her big and likely hot entirely natural tits. This is the kind of woman you primarily notice due to her body. On her own, as she was quite short and the venue pretty busy, she would have completely disappeared in the crowd, which is not a good position to be in for a woman who craves male attention. Also, this was a social event, not some kind of club night, so she could not just step on the dance floor, throw her hair around, and grind against random dudes. Given the circumstances, this was probably the best option she had.

The idea of a short and fairly attractive woman to use a very tall woman for the purpose of drawing male attention is quite ingenious. The tall woman stood out because of her height but the moment you noticed that woman, you inevitably noticed the “short-stack” clinging onto her. Thus, that woman was able to maximize the amount of male attention she could get in an environment in which she otherwise may barely have been noticed. This is a very interesting twist on a common pattern, and the fact that the roles were partly reversed made it even more remarkable. It is as if this woman flipped the script on a plain woman, using her to get more attention, in stark contrast to the pretty/ugly pairing of two women you often see in clubs where the latter arguably gets a lot more out of this symbiosis, ending up with a caliber of men that would normally be out of reach for her.
