Singer Lana Del Rey's marriage to a crocodile tour guide is a combination of ordinary men everywhere who think they have to be a 6-foot-5 trust fund Adonis to attract attractive women. It's a victory for all the deluded men out there.
We celebrate Lana, who has become a symbol of beauty, grace, and Americana among the online right-wing in recent years. (Her music is slappy, too.) Lana married a burly man named Jeremy Dufresne, a divorced alligator tour guide with two children. The couple married on the banks of a bayou in Des Allemandes, Louisiana, where Dufresne runs boat tours. (Related: Lana Del Rey marries alligator tour guide, shocking fans)
Besides the fact that Dufresne is blue collar (which many women find attractive) and can wrestle alligators (which women also find attractive), there's something about him that drives Lana crazy. perhaps, As attorney Paul Scalas points out,Dufresne has a ton of charisma despite not having the same net worth or looks as Lana.

“Imagine a Cajun alligator tour guide who's quick to crack a joke, always makes her laugh, and has an instant chemistry that cuts through the usual gloom. There's a lot of talk about animals and danger.” Scalas writes. “There's something there that has nothing to do with money or fame or what we think defines success.”
When I say their marriage is a victory for a normal guy, I don't mean a boring guy. If you're a super boring guy, you might not be able to attract pretty women, even if you have a trust fund lying around. But the average man, someone who doesn't make $400,000 a year, play professional sports, or hold a seat in Congress, needs some resourcefulness and cunning. There's no need to despair.

A sense of humor is essential. It is necessary to make women laugh and dizzy. As Skalas puts it, they need “instant chemistry that cuts through her usual melancholy.” Without a sharp sense of humor and some wit, it would be even more difficult for an average person with a boring job to get by.
A few years ago I went to a bar/club in Tampa. There was a group of very tall, tall, handsome guys there. They wear designer clothes and luxury watches, probably Rolexes, classic indicators of wealth. You'd think the girls at the club would be paying attention to them and trying to dance with them. But that wasn't the case. The players were completely stuck in a quagmire. Completed Narc. They stood in a corner away from the dance floor, staring at the women with creepy eyes instead of approaching them and stopping them. They were too serious to dance. They are too confident that their looks and Gucci shirts alone will make girls swoon.
However, there were a lot of guys in the bar pulling on 9 and 10 year old women even though they weren't all that healthy. why? They weren't afraid to dance and be a little silly to make the ladies laugh. They were just regular white guys, but they had that rhythm.
