Not exactly. A whole lot of the men on that list are totally my type, but at the end of the day, random person says "get in my car," I am saying no.

It isn't the same as saying "can I buy you a drink?"

It is way too risky to get into a random person's car.

Johnny Depp is ugly when he's not in his pirate outfit.

I think it's easy for ladies to say "no" because they're behind a computer screen. In the real world I doubt the average lady would just turn down one of their favorite celebrities if they asked in their own way. They don't view a moment with a celebrity the same as being with a "random" or strange person.

No one really knows what they'll do until they're actually in that situation.

So, you admit to finding him attractive.

Now, the question is, if he dressed up as Captain Jack Sparrow, would you turn him down?

That is a fair point to make.

That's the thing about celebrities, there's this illusion/veneer of familiarity,
based on a one-sided exposure to the famous person, who has no idea who the random stranger/fan is.

Now that I really think more about this scenario,
I would think the "star" would have to be just as worried about offering a ride to some stranger as vice versa.

This scenario has nothing to do with real life and it is highly unlikely him in particular would do that.
Besides he is not really any more special than any other man.
It doesn't hurt that I am not starstruck and could care less about over priced vehicles and I don't watch television or movies either so nothing impressive about his choice of employment.

Even if the female mind was written clearly and completely explained it would only pertain to the particular female whose mind was used so men will never completely understand the female mind.
Women also will never understand the male mind either.
Both male and female humans think, say and do some of the silliest things that leaves many shaking their heads in disbelief.

Of course! What part about "it's not safe to get into a stranger's car" don't you get? How many times do women have to post that before you'll believe that good looks/fame/charm/whatever won't override that?

Don't read it and stay out of the thread then, if it kills your brain cells. You need as many as you can get.
I enjoyed many of the replies. Didn't kill any of my brain cells.
