Nothing is quite as low on the practicality totem pole as an attractive girlfriend. The douchebags who date them can try their hardest to justify this insane 'person' with claims of quality, but at the end of the day, women are pretty much all made the same way and are comprised of the same exact ingredients: skin, bones and internal organs. the douche who dates attractive women does not want you to know this.

I have to agree with the leather jacket part. All leather jackets--high end and low end--are incredibly douchey. Only douche bags wear leather jackets. Not only are leather jackets douchey, they are stupid looking and goofy.

Although I don't agree with some of the items he listed, the author hit the nail on the head regarding leather jackets. Also:
Leather jackets are autistic. They just look awful. Leather jackets are pretty much costume wear. You might as well wear a clown outfit, because no one is going to take you seriously when you wear a leather jacket. You probably think you look like Marlon Brando, but the truth is that you don't. You actually look like a nerd that is trying to look badass when wearing a leather jacket.
My advice: Leather jackets. Dont wear 'em. Why shouldn't you wear them? They look like shit. All. The. Time. Get real. Stop trying to look cool, because you are not cool and you are not a badass. Wear something else that looks good and doesn't make you look stupid.
The truth is, leather jackets never look good. You should never wear a leather jacket. They are pretty much the fedora-level jackets. Let me tell you one thing. You will look autistic when you wear a leather jacket. Again, never wear a leather jacket. They look like shit.
