One of the hardest frustrations of a grown-up man is to listen, for decades, from the women around – his wife among others – about how sexy, hot, handsome, magical, irresistible, cool… Greek men are. And especially Cretan men. Out of this very frustration I decided to perform a scientific empirical ethnographic research with the one and only research question: What gives Greek/Cretan men all the immense magnetic irresistible influence over poor and helpless women from North-West Europe and beyond.
And yes, here comes another victorious theory from your dear researcher: It is the sleep deprivation that does the magic. And I suspect they do it on purpose.
By not sleeping for more than three hours per day, they obtain:
- bags under eyes that give them really cool and fatal expression
- glazed look that innocent women from North-West wrongly interpret as mysterious sparks inside their shiny eyes
- deep and rough voice hinting on their manly strengths
- seemingly cool and easy attitude to life. After sleep deprivation the human brain actually gets exhausted, perception narrows down, senses cease operating and response time lengthens radically.
You combine this all together and our poor ladies start sweating, melt down, lose consciousness… What a cheap and mean trick this is.
Watch out, ladies, I ain’t sleeping no more.




Oh, c’mon, you have some serious work to do on your jealousy, man

Darn, how do you get a smiley into the comment? Or into anywhere? Am I the only person unable to do that? Well I guess Cretan men can not do it either…

It happens automatically, the picture I mean. Because I am registered with the wordpress or something like that, I am not putting it there every time I comment…

And why in the world do they sleep three hours only?! Because of the many women they need to tend to during the nights… Looks like a viscious circle

There we go, another innocent and naive woman has fallen prey to the fairy tale.
