dc.description.abstractThe current study examined women’s responsiveness to various pick up lines. 194 females imagined being approached by a hypothetical stranger using one of the three pick up line types: Flippant, innocuous and direct. Supporting sex role socialization women preferred being approached by innocuous lines, on the other hand males preferred the use of direct lines. Flippant lines were not favoured by both genders, as it conveyed low trustworthiness and lack of social skills in the line user. Moreover, lower ratings were given to the perceived trustworthiness, sociability, sense of humour and intelligence when the line used was flippant. Contrary to the hypothesis, no relationships between Eysenck PEN variables and religion on one hand and responsiveness to pick up lines on the other were obtained, suggesting the weight of the pick up lines that overruled the personality variables and religion.
