Assuming that all you say about this is true, then if all you're
interested in is a short-term sexual relationship, that's perfectly
fine, right? For example, if you were wanting to have casual,
no-strings-attached sex with multiple numbers of, say, strippers or
other adult entertainment employees, then something working temporarily
is all you need, right?

Kind of like using two screen names ... one to discover details about a
girl, and then the second one to use that information to seduce her.

See, Mr. Parker, it's never GAME OVER until you're dead. It's always at
the most, GAME CHANGED. The rules of the game are always evolving,
morphing, adapting to current situations and to the specific
individuals involved, something I believe you agree with through
your research involving rating scales, one of which you created and
called "CUPID" to distinguish it from the 10 point rating scale, the
modified 10 point rating scale (face/body distinguishing) and the 1
point rating scale (Yes I'd do her/No I wouldn't do her), all still in
common use.
