The 20/80 Rule.

Vilfredo Pareto (1848-1923) was an Italian economist who, in 1906, observed that twenty percent of the Italian people owned eighty percent of their country's accumulated wealth. Over time and through application in a variety of environments, this analytic has come to be called Pareto's Principle, the 80-20 Rule, and the "Vital Few and Trivial Many Rule."

I c & p'd the above story, and the relevance to TA is that there are constant stories about guys that are in the 80% club, and expressing disappointment, frustration and anger. Essentially, a business gets 80% of its business from 20% of its customers, you wear 20% of your clothes 80% of the time and 20% of the guys get 80% of the girls.

There are shitload of posters here not in the 20% club, and it shows by the sooking, heartbroken, she doesn't like me back, blah blah threads and posts. But lets just say that getting into the 20% club is hard work for most. Some are born into the 20% club through being tall, dark and handsome, but most need to work their asses of to get membership and retain it.

For members of the 80% club, because of the limited opportunities to get female attention events such as being rejected, cheated on, dumped, ignored, treated badly or rudely, or being insulted, is almost life ending. These events cause the 80% members to cry, get depressed, whinge, bitch, and write feel sorry for me threads on TA. The funny thing is that the same thing happens to members of the 20% club, its just that if a woman does those things to them they figure that they don't deserve me any way, and begin looking for someone who does, and there are plenty of girls out there.

Stayed tuned for details on how to get membership of the club.

I was let out of my small, dark and cramped cage not that long ago.

And as you can notice I have exchanged my previously negative responses for love and helpfulness, hence this thread which looks to improve the lives of TAs distraught by events seemingly out of their control.

Did you miss me?

Simply being a metrosexual does not ensure membership of the 20% club, more is required.

And Rodrico, care to elaborate?
