Birds of Patent Leather Flock Together

Have you ever thought about which animal we take after the most? Would you have said birds?

I'm not entirely sure which breed specifically, but somewhere between a parakeet and bird of paradise. Women put artificial coloring on their faces, many birds have distinct patterns of color. Men put gel in their hair to keep it in position, often times giving it more volume or lift off of their heads, male birds puff out their feathers to appear bigger and more attractive to a potential mate. Women buy shirts with ruffles down the front, resembling a singing bird. Men typically do the courting dance, whether it be a bad pick up line, or opening a door, it is something to impress the female bird, I mean lady. British guys call ladies, birds. Men and women may whistle at the other sex when they find them attractive, rude or not. Women bat their lashes, and female birds may bat their wings.

I'm sure there are many other comparisons, but I don't know enough about the mating activities of birds.
