Women choose a man, the same as she chooses her car. Important features in a car are:

Must be reliable, good to look at, clean (inside and out), low maintenance offers a comfortable ride on short or long distances and can go the distance during the life of ownership. Sometimes engine size, colour and type of car (style) is important also.

How this translates to a man is:
- Reliable: No flakes, liars, already taken
- Good to look at: Men on the fringes of looks, size department are less attractive
- Clean (goes without saying). Good personal hygiene is important
- Low maintenance: Lots of guys are too busy to be in a relationship so make poor boyfriends and partners
- Offers a comfortable ride on short or long distances: No drama, anger problems, financial woes, problems with the ex etc
- Can go the distances during the lifetime of ownership: Has a genuine desire to get married rather than just "be with the special one"!

Optional extras:
- Engine size: Pertains to intellect, physical stamina, personal stats
- Colour: Preference for ethnicity. Some like black, white, Latino, Asian etc
- Type: Romantic, Athletic, Humorous, Adaptable, Well-travelled, etc

If a man has all those qualities he is a KEEPER.
