As part of their guide to throwing house parties (Why house parties? For one, you can smoke there.), the Post talks with Tracey Cox, author of Superflirt (out in November), for tips on how to lure the opposite sex at a private party, which she says is better, since both parties are "trapped." Part Rules, part good common sense, and a lot of funny, here are some suggestions from Cox:
DON'T TAKE HIM HOME
Really, if you are looking for a relationship, do not have sex on the first date. At the end of the night, the best strategy - if you really like him - is to give him a kiss on the lips for three or four seconds, pull back, look him in the eye and say, 'I'll see you soon,' before disappearing into the night. Just make sure you've traded phone numbers first.
ANGLE YOUR APPROACH
Women are more likely to respond if a guy approaches her from the front, but a girl is better off approaching a man from the side.
WEAR HEELS
The average increase in the protrusion of the buttocks wearing heels is 25 percent. This, remember, is a good thing.

The flirty girl in the photo looks like she's brushing her teeth in the living room. That's one I haven't tried at a house party. Thanks for the tip.
i generally approach house party invitations with caution...
being trapped at a boring house party can be torture.
hitz: there's always the option of leaving right away if you're bored. just watch out for houseboat parties or city cruise parties, because you can end up being stuck on a damn boat for hours, with annoying fuckers who won't leave you alone so you need to hide in the bathroom for the rest of the trip and get your friends to bring you beer. i learned that lesson the hard way...
Where's the rule that you have to take all the art off your walls?
hey wine gums, there's nothing sexier than clean teeth. clean teeth and boobs.
There was a house party where I was so upset, but I had to be there, so while in the bathroom with two girlfriends who were trying to convince me to stay, I took it out on the host by taking the grimy wire soap holder.
Good to know. What if my boobs are dirty? Like linty or sooty or something?
You took a grimy wire soap holder hostage?
Pretty much. I'm pretty passive-aggressive that way.
The photo also proved that eating a lollipop in public is a sure fire way to attract a simple minded fella's attention . . . worked for me.
I suppose the takeaway here is it doesn't really matter whether it's a toothbrush, toothpick, lollipop or socket wrench, just as long as it's dangling on the edge of the moistened mouth.
I'm not sure how the wire soap holder fits in, but thanks Gothamist, I've learned alot today.
i think thats an olive not a lollipop, seeing as the ho is drinking a martini.
oh, and who are these people that actually need this type of advice? virgins, pug uglies, mormons? you have to be pretty brain dead not to know how to flirt.
