Foundations
of Ladder Theory
|
Before
we get to the core of the ladder theory let's introduce a few
lemmas.
Lemma 1:Every time you meet someone you give them a quick mental
rating. Just how this is done is based on your sex, like so:

It
should be noted that this is not an entirely conscious process. To make
it clear here's an illustrative example of what really happens:
• Bob Meets Jane
• Then Bob Meets Connie
Now the ladder theory description goes like this:
1. Bob Meets Jane
2. Bob sizes her up based on the above criterion
3. Bob puts her on the ladder
4. Bob meets Connie
5. Bob sizes her up based on the above criterion
6. Bob puts her on the ladder above Jane
You can recognize this has gone on because Bob says " I'd like
to fuck Jane, but not as much as I want to fuck Connie"
I think that everyone has heard this or something like it enough times
for us to accept it as axiomatic and move on. You might be thinking,
" Well what about Jane and Connie?" We'll get to them next.
