I used to always be after my boys (students) about "Don't do this and don't say that. Girls don't like it." They listened because that's all they really care about anyway - girls, food, and sports.
I once called over one of my boys and quietly told him to take that filthy doo rag off and to please wash it that night, or buy a new one. He said, "Why? It's only a doo rag." I answered, "Because girls will think your underwear is also dirty and they won't want you." That doo rag was off his head before I could take another breath!

LOL, how funny Judy! Teenagers are oblivious to so many things that we consider "common sense," but they are just learning and it's great that you were so sympathetic and could be helpful in a way they would understand.
