risky business

Happy Monday!

The results of this study suggest that when men are "in the mood," they're more likely to engage in risky behavior. The summary:

"The bottom line is that risk-taking can be a tool that men use to show potential mates that they have desirable qualities such as confidence or ambition," said study co-author Michael Baker, a doctoral student in social psychology at Florida State.

An adventurous guy is one thing, but that daredevil quality can only go so far without backfiring to the point of stupidity.

A guy in Columbus once drove the wrong way on a one-way street in hopes of scoring my phone number. I wasn't wooed.

Ladies: What's the stupidest risk a guy has taken while trying to pick you up? Smartest risk?
