Also, a quality wingman should recognize the situation, and act pre-emptively. Failing that, you should have some sort of non-verbal hint dropping. Like, have a predetermined code that when you yawn...that means "step in here man, i gosta go upgrade"

A real man doesn't need one.

Men started hunting in packs to be able to overpower and out manouver their prey. This sort of behaviour has now carried across into hunting for mates, and so humans still tend to travel in packs. It has several uses for males. The first use is that they can pool their knowledge and experience together to find the optimal location of gathering of females. The second use is to create a 'home base'.

The home base is usually quite important for the male human. It acts as a command centre for developing gameplans, and as a safety net. Gameplans are simply strategies which the males will develop in order to yield as high a success rate as possible. The safety net has 2 uses. The first is provide comfort/relief when a male is not successful, and the second is when the pack steps in when one of the males has made an error in judgement and picked up an undesirable female, or maybe even a male.

The third use of travelling in a pack is having a flexible force, that can adapt to any situation. Being able to retreat males or call in for reinforcements allows a male pack to wisely matchup to female packs. A pack can also give a variation in types of males, which when used wisely against different females can lead to even more favourable matchups with a female pack, and a higher success rate.

The lower the quality of males, the larger the pack should be. Many of these males won't be successful, and will need the comfort of other males.

It is also wise for packs to be lead by an experienced hunter. This will often create many 'by default' matchings for the weaker males.

Some of these experienced hunters prefer to hunt alone or in pairs. They are often highly successful whether in a pack or alone, and often feel that a pack is inefficient for attracting females for himself, so it is simply often easier to hunt in low numbers or alone.

Females tend to graze in herds. Greater numbers makes it easier to fend off unwanted male attention. The herd also offers comfort and relief to an unsuccessful female in a similar way in how a pack does for males. Females also tend to travel in herds to create favourable matchups with male packs.

Some females like to graze alone. These women simply don't need the herd. They are highly skillful and fending off unwanted male attention, and have such a high success rating that they don't need the support of the herd. These females are a force to be reckoned with, and should only be approached by the more skillful and experienced males.

Close enough.

"but for the sake of hooking up, stick to the herd"

Pack or herd?? Yeh I'd recommend sticking with a group of mates for most guys.

Forgot to mention the women that hunt in packs like guys.

"but if you can land one of these women who don't need the herd, then you're all gravy."

Course. There's a reason they're alone [img]/images/graemlins/wink.gif[/img]
