Distraction and Diversion 1

Time to move on to a new thread.

     Have you ever been to a magic show?  Next time you go, look at the magician's assistant.  The chances are, she will be a beautiful woman dressed in a skimpy outfit.  Look at the recent commercials for the "Carl's Jr." restaurant chain - the model for the cover of the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit edition (2012) is eating a hamburger....but leaving little to the imagination about what she is really thinking.  Go to an NFL football game or an NBA basketball game and try to keep your eyes off the cheerleaders (if you can).

     I am not talking here about "sex sells," although this has been known to advertisers since the dawn of time.  I am instead talking about using beautiful women as a distraction while a con is going on, right under the eyes of the mark being conned.

     Beautiful women dresed in skimpy outfits are a great distraction, and not just for men.  Studies have shown they attract the attention of women as well (I'm talking about straight women here too, not a lesbian).  They are the perfect addition to a con game.  We will spend the next two weeks or so learning about how sex is used to distract a mark in a con game.
