The Holidays are fast approaching. Do you know who your New Year's kiss will be? Or, your Christmas lay? While it's very tempting to give up the hunt for love at this time of year, the wise men would agree that the holiday season is a prime time to score her. In fact, a very unscientific study says that women are a whopping 62% more interested in hooking up during the holiday season. Maybe it's something in the eggnog, maybe we find the Santa suit arousing (yup) or maybe it's just the thought of the dreaded Valentine's Day right around the corner. Whatever the cause, women are aching for a warm body in their bed.

Here are a few ideas on how to take advantage of the holiday season to score her:

* The big ball on New Years is your friend. Mistletoe a hangin' is your friend. These totally useless holiday symbols were planted by your forefathers with the intention of getting you some action. They would roll over in their graves if they knew how rarely their progeny took advantage of these moments. I'm assuming you know the mistletoe drill, but here's how you position yourself for New Years: Flirt with the girl during the night of New Year's Eve. Buy her a drink. Strategically plant yourself next to her 20 minutes before the ball drops and engross her in conversation. A few minutes before, make sure she has a glass of champagne, get up close and maybe put your hand on her back (so she can't run away so easy). When the ball drops, look at her, say 'happy new years', go in for the kiss, and hope you don't get smacked.

* It's cold. Women get cold. Warm her up. Suggest a mug of hot chocolate. Suggest cozying up by the fireplace with a glass of wine. Lend her your coat. Buy her a scarf. Put your arm around her. There are a million opportunities here to get up close and personal under the guise of chilly weather.

* Food. You know the expression, 'the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. ' Well, the same is true for women at this time of year. You see, with all the holiday food, dreary weather and baggy clothes, women get sloppy and stop working out as much. The extra chunk makes their self-esteem plummet, leaving the door wide open for you to ride in on your chariot and save the day by declaring her the hottest thing since Teri Hatcher's heyday. She'll appreciate the vote of confidence. Really appreciate it. Really.

* Volunteer. It's the giving season, and even if you don't have one generous bone in your body, most women do. Women are overwhelmingly more likely to volunteer at a food pantry or toy drive this time of year. You ever wonder where all the women are? Volunteer and you'll not only have access to your choice of chick, but you'll be able to apply the good-hearted-guy charm. Think of the possibilities. After playing Santa for the kids at a children's hospital, you can ask her if she's been naught or nice this year. After working a shift at the homeless shelter, you can ask her if she wants to take a nice hot shower together to clean off the whino slobber. Oh, and then there's that warm fuzzy feeling that comes from helping another human being. It's an aphrodisiac for some (e.g. me).

‘Tis the season to get laid. . .fa la la la la, la la la laid!
