    The interesting thing about

    the Hot Chicks with Douchebags site is that a good proportion of the women in these photos are Top Shelf Maxim Material, and I mean that in the most flattering sense.

    Meanwhile, all too many of the men look like aliens or mannequins.

    What element of these women's psyche does not see the irony of this situation? I mean most of these women can snag a good looking Ricky Martin or [Julio Iglesias's son] type.

    I guess, if I wanted to be around such world class bodies, I can feel confident going into these situations, where attractive women swarm like ants, with my slight belly, and just ACT like these douches, all macho and 'Jersey goomba' and shit. Looks do not so much seem to matter to these women as does the douche's attitudes.
