He walks into the room, a sleek jungle cat on the prowl. He's got it all: that laid-back, mysterious Humphrey Bogart air, the southern charm of the sun-kissed boy next door, his body radiates strength and stamina beneath his perfectly fitted clothes. You just can't help but stare.

He catches your eye and sends that sly wink that makes you melt in your chair. He's got you and he knows it. You pray he's the angel he appears to be. As he steps closer, you catch his scent, clean and masculine and your heart kicks up a notch. Every man in the room wants to pound this guy into the floor while every woman in the room lightly fans herself and gazes with obvious lust.

How does he do it?

Human attraction is a very earthy mystery involving all our senses. When we spy that handsome man across the room, our primal urges are sizing him up as our future mate. Subconsciously we're looking him over and sizing him up as the future father of our children. This is, of course, subconscious - it's very rare a woman meets a man for the first time and says, "There's my baby's daddy!"

Our primal cavewoman, lurking deep inside us, peruses this strange and fascinating man. She grunts with pleasure when she sees he's clean and well-dressed, as this speaks of his success and his ability to provide for us. If he's obviously in good shape, our inner cavewoman purrs with delight - we need our mates to give us healthy children and provide protection. His self-confidence seals the deal and our cavewoman throws the switch, causing our heart to race as we scramble to get this mystery man's attention.

Score one for the boys, this guy has it all. He's Matthew McConaughey, a sun-drenched, southern boy with his crooked smile and fantastic charm. He's Jack Nicholson, full of mischief and wicked fun. He's Humphrey Bogart, the mysterious package every woman wants to unwrap.

He's got you hooked - and he hasn't said a word.
