Thoughts on Man Shopping:

1. How does he treat pets?   Good signs: his dog has arthritis and cataracts   Bad signs: he averages a cat a year, he buys novelty pets
2. How does he treat servers in restaurants?   Good: Like people   Bad: Like objects   Worse: Like sex objects   Run!: Like younger siblings when Mom's not home
3. How does he treat women?   Good: He likes his female relatives, he actually has female friends   Bad: He talks to his mom on the phone like she's a telemarketer, he hates all of his exes, he acts much differently around men than women.   Extra bad: He's a jerk to his ex and he has kids that he hardly sees. Lots of women seem to convince themselves that he'll treat them like a princess and guard their children with his life. Maybe. Odds are they're getting a sneak preview of the way he treats an ex-princess and related responsibilities.
4. Does he take reasonably good care of himself? He's probably not going to be able to take care of you or any offspring any better.   Awesome: He gets regular exercise   Good: He actually eats halfway decent   Bad: He eats crappy, and keeps frat house hours
5. Does he care about things other than #1?   Good: performs some sort of community service   Bad: Keeps the cash when he finds a wallet   Run!: He trys to use the credit cards
6. Does he know how to maintain relationships?   Good: He has one or more friends of long standing   Bad: His previous record is 4.575 months

Extra Credit:

1. He's a vegetarian
2. He doesn't care for professional sports
3. He never gets inebriated.
4. He can cook
5. He's not cut.
6. He owns several acres of excellent pasture and likes horses
