The Hook Cafe
The local free weekly paper in Charlottesville is The Hook, and its online personal-ads site is called The Hook Cafe. Some time in early 2010, Chris posted a personal ad at the Cafe under the nickname "direct2sex," declaring that he "Need Sexy Sweets from Woman."
As far as anyone can tell, no sexy sweets have been forthcoming.
The introduction
The basic summary at the top of the ad is as follows:
| I am an honest, compassionate gentleman, with a good sense of humor. I am looking for good time(s) with a woman; I'm not getting any younger. I would like a 21-28 year old woman with a pretty face, a sexy slim to average body and an honest and compassionate personality. Show me your honest and sweet interest and love, and I'll show you a good time. Hit me up with an e-mail with your photo and digits, and I will respond quickly in suit. Smokers, overweights, blacks and liars need not apply. |
What Chris is looking for in a woman doesn't seem to have changed much since the old days of the Attraction Sign. He doesn't mention that he wants a woman who can financially support him, but he still makes a point of ruling out black women, smokers, and his fellow fatsos.
