As true as that is, I believe there is something to be said for Art and Strategy. It may mean picking up a handful of Mars & Venus books, or it may mean looking towards Mars and Venus for astrological advice.

Your example of Playboy is unrealistic, because people don't actually look like that. Also, although it is useful to define physical charactistics when searching for one's ideal mate, a focus on these to the exclusion of the other qualities of the person, and more importantly the values of the relationship is to invite sorrow.
