What do you like the most about men?
An admirable quality is their objectivity. How they deal with situations rationally.
What do you like the least?
Rationality becomes a sore point when men believe that everything can be black or white.
Which country has the hottest men?
Greece.
Daniel Craig or Hugh Grant?
Daniel Craig.
What is a good approach for a girl like you?
Men must be comfortable with whatever they plan for an evening. It’s awkward if a guy who likes a casual home-cooked meal is uncomfortable during a formal, candle-lit dinner.
How should a girl approach a guy she likes at the office?
Women shouldn’t have to do the asking. Girls should drop hints and let the guy take the bait and ask you out.
What should men have learnt about women by now?
The art of complimenting. They should’ve known that women can live on compliments.
What is your stand on pre-marital sex?
It shouldn’t be called that anymore because physical intimacy is the next step in a relationship — whether pre- or post-marriage is immaterial.
What constitutes a healthy sex life?
A deep-rooted connection and understanding is what makes people call the act love making.
When is an affair permissible?
Well, when anyone has a similar wavelength and common interest. Of course, wanting to be with someone who is married or a felon is forbidden.
