Tennessee Men Say Belfast Women Are 'Built Different'
A New Study Confirms It's Not Just the Spit-It's the Attitude
BELFAST, TN - Forget Southern Belles-a new breed of women is taking over Tennessee, and they're louder, tougher, and can hit a target from across the room with a well-timed spit.
A new University of Alabama sociology study finds that Belfast women exhibit a unique mix of confidence, athletic prowess, and danger that has made them the most sought-after women in America.
"I don't know what they put in the water down there," said Bradley Thomas, a Florida man who drove nine hours to Belfast for a date. "But these women ain't scared of nothin'."
Surveyed men described Belfast women as:?? "Fearless."?? "Able to outdrink any man in the bar."?? "Possibly descended from cowboys."?? "Highly skilled in verbal (and spit-based) combat."?? "A mix of beauty, grace, and a minor threat to public health."
A local matchmaking service has now launched an exclusive dating program, offering city men the chance to meet a Belfast woman-if they can handle it.
"If you're afraid of strong women, this ain't the place for you," said Cletus Ray Johnson, Belfast's leading "Hawk Tuah" romance coach. "But if you like a lady who can shotgun a beer and still look good doin' it? Welcome to paradise."
