Reading is Sexy


A poll suggests that reading a book on the beach can lead to romance.

Alistair Spalding, marketing executive at Borders UK that commissioned the survey, said: "It's clear from our study that your choice of book can be a passport to summer romance, with your beach read directly influencing your desirability.

"Of course we've always promoted interesting books, but if reading them makes you sexier on the beach - even better!"

  2. Please advise. Which part leads to romance - beaches or books? I don't go to beaches, so I feel safe on that one, but do I have to give up reading for fear that even more nymphos will be pursuing me?

  3. HE: That's experience talking, isn't it?

    Vicus: The article suggests that what you read AT the beach is the attraction but hints that your choice of reading material in general is what can lure in the ladies.

    But you, Vicus, would be sexy reading a book catalogue, for heaven's sake. You can run but you can't hide. On the beach or in the bibliothèque, you're a babe magnet.

  6. "The poll found Wayne Rooney could help you to score with his recently-released life story in the biography category, rated the second-biggest turn-on."

    "'Ello, darlin'. Rooney's a fuckin' genius in 'e?"

  7. Geoff: A passage from his autobiography...
    "Our house has six bedrooms and a big kitchen which is very modern and greyish. I'm not good at describing décor."
    Genius.

  8. How about shouting loudly that you have been referenced in Wikipedia?

    You know I'm going to go on about this don't you?

  10. i thought people read on the beach so that others wouldn't bug them...that's always the impression i got anyway.

    When I pull out a book its so that the girls will think i AM reading when really I am staring at them in their bikinis under cover of dark sunglasses
