That's bullox, like I said in the other thread. It's actually harder for a girl to pickup a guy than it is for a guy to pickup a girl.
Two main reasons:
1) If a girl comes on too strong the guy will reject her.
2) If the girl comes on to weak the guy usually won't notice her.
Best advice is, teach the guy to pick you up. I know, sounds stupid but here's how it works. When you talk to him, face him with your knees pointing toward him (this is very important). Don't do the whole "Laugh at his stupid jokes" thing because guys sometimes tell those stupid jokes to find out if your a dimwit or not.
Now you are sitting, knees pointed towards him talking, take a drink of whatever you are drinking and set it down slightly closer to him, do this like two or three times during the convo until the glass is sitting right in front of him. If he doesn't pick it up and move it out of the way, he's cool with you being in his personal space (ie he's interested in you).
Then try doing what sociologist call "mirroring", its where you move your body to the same rythm as they do. This is easier if you are standing, but if they "talk with their hands" just nod your head at the pace that their hands move, if they turn a certain way, you turn that way, etc. Copy their movements just slightly. Technically, if you had a natural chemical attraction to each other the two of you would be doing this automatically, but you can speed up the process by doing this yourself.
As for the conversation, generally let the guy lead the conversation. Us guys have a sort of technique where we like to basically let the girl talk about themselves anyways, so you're going to get to run your mouth all you want, just let us be the ones to lead the convo and he'll feel like he's picking you up.
