drake equation of my romantic possibilities

Dec 3, 2011

N = P x L x S x B x E x T x H

where:

         N = the number of women who I would be interested in dating locally;

and

         P = average number women born per year locally

         L = total number of years in the age range i'm considering

         S = fraction of the above who are unmarried(available) or stuck in unhappy relationships

         B = fraction of the above who have similar life goals as i do

         E = fraction of the above who have similar codes of behaviour, ethics, interests, etc as i do

         T = fraction of the above who i am physically attracted to

         H = fraction of the above i have sexual chemistry with

N = P x L x S x B x E x T x H

where:

         N = thenumber of women who I would be interested in datinglocally;

and

         P = averagenumber women born per year locally

         L = totalnumber of years in the age range i'm considering

         S =fraction of the above who are unmarried(available) or stuck inunhappy relationships

         B =fraction of the above who have similar life goals as ido

An image of NewbieToThis That took me a while to calculate. N = 36,750.

Mine was quite high until I had to multiple by 0 for H.

An image of OneOcean I don't like the definition of H. It's too much like T, and whenever the word "chemistry" is used one should be skeptical of the real meaning behind it. I suggest: H = Fraction of the above who are attracted to me.

Am appalled by the inaccuracy of this equation. Eg. you don't have to use the average number of women because your age range tells you the specific years you're looking at.

You're not taking this seriously.

I suggest: H = Fraction of the above who are attracted to me.

That actually helps me slightly.

An image of GLilyDances I love that this is a highly fractious Journal post, yet so different from the "typically fractious Journal post"!
