As a rule, women pay more attention to this kind of thing than we do.
They almost all pay attention, but they draw different conclusions
from it.

But if you show a woman your Westuy (no puns, this is the literal
sense) and the plaids don't match, and she shows no interest in going
camping with you, well, it was probably the unmatched plaids.

Knowing this can save you pride under the right circumstances.

If your male and married, don't worry about any of this.
