They say beauty is in the eye of the beholder, but in this case I think that it is the power that is the attraction, becuase he's no beauty....

"Power is the ultimate aphrodisiac" If that is correct, what would be the opposite?


I´m not sure what you mean by "give me an argument."

There you go i have created a synapsis in the little grey cells even if it is merely , " what is this crazy old duffer talking about " ? It gives one pause, levitates from the lethargic , and promulgates the presumptive. - ray76, Mar 6, 2012
And where might this synopsis be? - missy8888, Mar 6, 2012
No it is " synapsis " a junction of nerve cells which are firing. - ray76, Mar 6, 2012
You see it worked , now you can give a " synopsis " of what has transpired , we are all now thinking along different albeit zany pathways. - ray76, Mar 6, 2012

He means his power made women interested in him. The opposite would be nobody is attracted to weakness.

Ray, you are so weird! Can you imagine Kissinger saying that in Spanish?!? He would have had enough difficulty saying it in English with his accent; he might have written it down. Tal vez fue estimulada por los expertos del karate femenino?? or would that be "por las mujeres karatecas" ?? This quote by that man is like Orson Welles complimenting Madonna on her elocution.
