IMO, the only reason that has any validity to it is #10.
Let us not forget that some of the best advice on this forum have come from female posters. I'd like to think that they gave good advice because they believed that some of us were man enough to accept it. (The fact that they hide behind a computer helps too, but you get the idea.)
I believe most women will put away the "sugar and spice" facad if they sense from you that you're asking just out of curiosity and not out of some groveling, clueless desperation.
For what its worth, my $0.02.
