Does playing guitar help you get laid?

It hasn't in my few years of playing, but that's because I've only been in a band for a few months before half of it left for college, 2 years ago.

It should, but it doesn't necessarily. God knows I go for chicks who play guitar, but I don't think chicks care unless you're famous. As it is, I don't need much help, so I guess I'm not the best person to find out.

I should try having a girlfriend sometime, just so I know what it's like. I'm in college, I'm decent looking and clean, and I have a bigger penis than average by ~3 inches (not that I advertise it or anything), and I've never had a girlfriend. Can you believe that? Every friend I've had since sophmore year high school has even been a girl and I still haven't had a gf.

Yeah, American culture is officially phuxed.

You should try yourself in the porn movies business, if you are that gifted. Then you won't need a girlfriend...

JK, of course:D
And I guess guitar does not help with getting laid

It does help but you shouldn't do it just to get some. Besides no matter how much the guitarist gets, the vocalist gets more.

Hey, dude, if you have trouble getting laid even while having a nine inch package, I weep for you, dude. Get laid once, chicks talk. Soon everyone will hear of your larger-than-the-average-bear peter. The girls will be begging you to play guitar to them (and then have sex with them). J/K You'll never get laid...LOSER! BWAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Ain't that the truth. That's why I'm learning to sing :)

Not really, I'm learning to sing because I just found out this week I can perfectly match Anthony in Red Hot Chili Peppers in the song "Other Side" and they kick a$$.

I don't really think about getting laid, I've never looked for it. Honestly that's mostly because I don't know how to get laid (seriously, how do you ask a girl about something like that?), but as far as a gf goes I'm more interested in the emotional connection than anything else. I'm wierd that way.

Porn..that's a thought, if there wasn't the problem with getting a full encyclopedia of diseases living on you. Besides, it's not like anyone advertises that sort of thing. Can you imagine seeing that in the paper? 'Wanted: big dick'?

Speaking from a female's prespective I'm going to have to say yes, sort of. Females go for guys who are musicians, or atleast I do. That may be, because I play guitar too. Well, anyways girls want to get into relationships with guys who play guitar, and relationships, some, lead to sex. So maybe playing guitar will help you get laid. Any guy with a guitar makes him look 10x hotter in my book.

Sh*t that will change once you get laid. "LOL" Just kidding. The question, I would say yes. I found it alot easier to talk to gurls once they found out I played. But if your hung like a horse all you probably have to do is walk up to chick, whip it out and chase her around with it until she gives. Just kidding.

As for chicks who play guitar, it's definitely a plus but if she's butt ugly I guess it doesn't help. So if your a dewd who is butt ugly I guess you'll never get laid. ;)

When a hot chick actually can play guitar..its definetly a big turn on..I think. But ya, since I've been in the small-time music scene now, I find it easier to talk to girls, but also more girls talk to ME. LOL..But whatever, I think if your gonna get laid you gotta be rich, cuz I don't think they care that much otherwise.

That's because you live near Ottawa - the most intense concentration of shallow, mercenary tarts in all of Canada!

Yeah, we Americans have a tendency to be angry. Maybe it's because our air is more polluted than yours.

the best reaction i ever got from a girl was "ooh, you play guitar" and that's it
To improve technique and of course trying to keep all as clean as possible. I know my own limits and speed limits and so on I never play anything I'm not capable of. That wouldn't make any sense. After three years of playing I tried to play everything as fast as possible and that sounded, I would say, like shit, and I didn't realize that if I'd play bit slower things than I was capable of playing then everything would sound much better.

I think the biggest problem w/trying to pick up girls in a band is that by the time the bands done playing, you packed up all your crap and got payed, all the drunk chicks have gone home w/someone else.:( Oh well, I'm married so I don't have to worry about it, I just get to revel in the enjoyment of making music and get to hear the other guys in the band wine about it after the show.
