Exactly!! Which is why I always call BS on men who say they love girls who work on cars. No, they like girls who look like Megan Fox in Transformers 'pretending' to work on cars. You get an average looking woman who is focused on her work and doesn't look made up and all of a sudden she's 'dykey' because she's working on a car

When I'm elbow deep in an airplane engine I'm probably not wearing a short skirt, heavily made up with my hair done with French tipped manicured nails.

It's only an issue when losers, ugly guys, and just men they flat out don't like do it.

That's where the problem lies

Only for the guy who doesn't know his stock.

If he did, there wouldn't be a problem. Case closed.

LOL

I joked about opening a garage that was like hooters for cars with friends when talking about the simplicity of the male mind. Do it.
Give me 10%

We shall make a killing!

Me and one of my best friends met in out early 20s when we were both working at a Jiffy Lube and we always joked about doing that. I just don't know if the hot oil splatter burns would be worth it.

There's actually a place called Girlington Garage that employs only women and they're doing pretty good

That reminds me of a quote I read from Tina Fey, when someone called her the "thinking man's sex symbol": "What I've come to realize is that when people say, 'The thinking man's whatever' -- there's no such thing. The thinking man also wants to **** Megan Fox."

I actually agree with this. A lot of people don't know their lane.

let's be clear tho,men Objectify women because women want to be objectified.

But only by the guys they want.

Women want to be objectified because men objectify women which in turned is encouraged women who objectify themselves and so on goes the circle...

Women...start objectifying us! If you're for equal opportunity and all that!

Even very smart, 'thinking' men will generally still go for the hot chick over a woman he actually has something in common with. There's a very good looking, well known astrophysicist that's married to a hot fashion blogger...

Personally, I think Tina fey is hot
