    Thing is every woman wants a man who shares her ideals.... On this site, that's being a money saver!

    Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.... As a professional Statistician how many flaws can I spot in this "polling". It's not worth the paper it's written on and is purely a self-promoting gimmick.

    Silver Surfer effect.

    The survey samples are mostly retired OAP, who have wallets stuffed with coupons. Male virility is demonstrated by the size of his Discount.;)

    I think that says more about your profession than any validity issues. Don't take yourself so seriously. As a bit of fun, I think it was an interesting poll.

    "And chaps, if you flash a voucher and she does a runner, you've probably had a lucky escape."

    My thoughts exactly :T.

    When I was little I used to tell my parents that I wanted to marry a millionaire. What the hell happened????

    Why not aspire to making it happen by yourself? Too many girls want to grow up to be WAGs these days.

    OT but I heard a great quote the other day: "the best contraception for teenagers is ambition" - that was from a paediatric consultant researching teenage pregnancy stats.
    :hello:

    A wild assumption, methinks. Can you substantiate that?

    It's a funny assumption. Hence the winking smilie.

    I think you just failed the Turing Test.
  • So this was an MSE poll?
