"Word got around there were lots of attractive single women in Pat's class,
so the men started going just to meet them," explains Renee Piane, an attractive
and extremely flirtatious young woman, who describes herself as The Love Coach.
"My class, How To Impress Your Date Every Time, is the exact opposite. I
usually have more men than women, but now women are hearing about this, so they're
showing up too. On the whole though, it's men that need guidance." This
evening, there are three women and 15 men in her class. "Now, have you got
a nice place to bring a woman back to?" she asks them. The class stare back
blankly. Piane looks exasperated. "You need a good environment," she
gently scolds. "Your house, it needs to smell nice, the lighting should be
soft, the place should be comfortable. If you bring someone back to a pigsty,
well, what are they going to think of you?" She
tells her class to take a good look at themselves and asks if they are the kind
of people who magnetize others. Many of the men don't look as if they could magnetize
a fridge magnet. "Women
love it when a man is in the driver's seat," Piane continues. "You should
be saying, 'I'm planning a day ski trip and couldn't think of anyone I'd rather
take than you - are you available Saturday?' This makes us feel special. It's
romantic. It feels sooo good when a man takes a lead, we feel cherished." The
three women nod in agreement. They don't seem to mind that the advice is directed
primarily at the men. They're too business swapping gazes with their pick of the
bunch anyway." ... #
