Male Delivery: Don’t be “that” girl

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at UGA chapter.

Dear Male Delivery,

Do guys like party girls?

 

For the party guy, I think this answer is very obvious, but let’s speak upon the general male population.

 

In order to break this question, I will provide a formal definition as to what a party girl is. I will say that this is a girl that has a prompt weekend schedule of Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays capitalized by going downtown and/or parties and getting pretty wasted. Usually, at least one of these days is not remembered and as far as her actions go, they are pretty scandalous and not appropriate to say in front of your mom. Overall, it is a girl that loves that fast-paced, blurry, crazy lifestyle.

 

So, are guys attracted to this?

 

In many environments, many guys would say that this girl is attractive (maybe after a few beers) by virtue of the fact of her lack of care in her social life. She is easy to have a drink with (or 7 drinks). Any reservations that guys usually have when approaching a girl are somewhat torn down (I would say in a bad way) since she is so easy (I hate to say that). Every formal move we have to make in social situations is made a lot easier with alcohol, but that does not necessarily make them better.

 

My warning for the girl that is the “party girl” is to watch out for guys that are too pushy. She seems to almost invite fellows like that. You can decide if that is a good way to go about things.

 

Any smart gentleman with good friends will be properly prep talked by his bros if they see that he is pursuing a girl like this because she is pretty dangerous. We recognize the danger that surrounds her, but unfortunately that recklessness that she practices is very seductive and tempting, unfortunately in a very bad way. Like Shakira puts it, “There’s a She-Wolf in your closet.” It hurts to say that many guys do like the party girls only for bad reasons, but I DO NOT encourage women to become this girl. Furthermore, regarding her lifestyle, guys may only be attracted for a very small period of time. Partying gets old whether we like it or not and we come to college to grow up, not continue to bathe in the shot-soaked and Natty Lite-infested waters of the house party.

 

If guys do like party guys, it is very temporary phase of our Romantic lives (hopefully).

 

I can only imagine that some girls ask this question in order figure out if they should take on the persona of this girl or not. By no means, adopt this way of living in order to attract guys. To be frank, you WILL attract guys, just not the right ones. Don’t be flattered by things they will say to you or do for you. More than likely, they will do it for the wrong reasons. They are not giving you attention. They are giving your body attention. Please, for the sake of sanity, do not become the party girl.

 

Do guys like party girls? Yes, Only the dumb ones.

 

Sincerely,

Your Real Live College Guy
