1. We Are All Bad With Women
As much as guys don't want to face it, none of us are true ladies men. Our sex lives are usually based around awkward conversations, tentative excuses to send a text, and huge expenditure on flowers and the like to try impress her - that dabbled with a generous helping of extremely good fortune. Face it, most of us got lucky by pure chance, almost as if we literally stumbled into bed with a girl. Poor old Fry ain't much better than the rest of us. He spends huge amounts of time chasing the strangely attractive one-eyed Leela, mostly to no avail. In newer episodes their relationship seems to develop further, and so far as we know they end up together (see above) - but boy did that take a long time. Other relationships for Fry aren't much better - his old girlfriend from the past gets defrosted and leaves him, and when he tries to move in with Coleen it turns out she has five other boyfriends. Crikey. So there it is: the reasons why Philip J. Fry is essentially a reflection of ourselves. Did we miss any? Comment below and let us know.
