| 0:00.0 | All right, I got a quote for you today. Women are attractive to men and different things that women do are attractive to different kinds of men. If you dress like a tramp or if you lean just a little bit trampy, you will in fact get male attention. Unfortunately, you are attracting the kind of man you should not want to attract. A woman should want to be attractive without attracting. An attractive woman |
| 0:23.2 | is a lady, and a lady is a woman who comports herself with self-respect. You should want, |
| 0:29.0 | she is certainly attractive. You should not want. She is certainly an attraction. |
| 0:34.6 | Oh man, speaking some truth here, and we recognize, fully recognize that might ruffle |
| 0:39.7 | your feathers, but that's why we're going to talk about it. |
