Some men just seem to have secret powers when it comes to women. They never have trouble finding dates or getting women to notice them. These lucky guys are sometimes called chick magnets. Like a magnet, they pull women to them with an invisible force.

Anything that is attractive to women or helps men get women can also be called a chick magnet. Some stereotypical chick magnets are cute things like puppies and babies, and expensive things like flashy cars and designer clothes. Tracy Morgan hopes his new Italian sports car will be a chick magnet.

Tracy Morgan is an actor and comedian. He’s known for making people laugh, not for being sexy and handsome. But many women say that one of the qualities they look for in a man is a good sense of humor. So maybe Tracy doesn’t need the Lamborghini. He might be a chick magnet without it.

What do you think are the best chick magnets?
