"Let one of our attractive Lady Wingmen take you to a bar, club, mixer, or singles event. She'll provide coaching, as required, and introduce you to the women you want to meet." [bristolz, Jul 07 2005]

I'll go for this! Where can I rent a wing-
man? And what is wing-man? |
|
| |
The female version of this exists. Guys hire them as escorts who act to introduce them to otherwise unapproachable women in clubs and the like. |
|
| |
Never, never leave your wingman! |
|
| |
Part of being a successful wing-man involves knowing what to expect from your buddy. This is information that can't be bought, it can only come from experiance around him. |
|
| |
Nice idea though. Welcome to the 'bakery. |
|
| |
So, a Wingman is some sort of cupid kind of person? |
|
| |
I want one! I need to meet someone interesting. |
|
| |
The Maxim article in the link makes a wingman sound like some sort of enabling pimp.
The bit about rescuing your friend from a serious relationship with a woman and getting him back into the bar scene was bizarre.
The Maxim wingman relationship reeks of latent homosexuality. |

I don't know why, but I read this as 'rent a ringworm' (+) |
|
| |
It comes from the military, [baconbrain] - what did you expect? |
|

Don't like this. It smacks too much of macho idiots who wish they lived in Top Gun instead of in Clapham South. Friends are friends - a wingman is someone who follows you around in a fighter jet and shoots at people who are trying to kill you. If you want friends to run spoiler for you, I recommend cultivating married friends. These tend to be more generous since they have no vested interest in seeing you crash and burn. |
