Confirmed Bachelor

 is a perk in Fallout: New Vegas.

Effects
This perk gives males increased damage on other male targets, and increased dialogue with certain male characters.

Extra dialogue
This perk allows you to have extra dialogue options with certain male characters. Some of them are listed here.


 * You can ask Major Knight at the Mojave Outpost if you want to be "friends", to which he will respond favorably, but also say that such "friendships" aren't looked on particularly fondly at the outpost. More importantly, he will provide free repair services, which can be used to keep your gear in shape as well as repair gear before you sell it, earning you significantly more caps. This is currently bugged on the PC version. On both the PC and Xbox 360 version, this may stop working and you will be forced to pay full price once again.
 * You can sympathize with Manny Vargas' plight and listen to him complain about his problems. He will then tell you where Benny was headed from Novac without doing a mission for him. You can still do his mission optionally after he gives you the information.
 * You can flirt with Arcade Gannon and convince him to join you as a companion.
 * When speaking to Cass about herself, she will mention she likes tough men. You can use this perk to make it clear you're not interested in her in any romantic way.
 * You can compliment Jack, starting the Young Hearts quest.
 * During That Lucky Old Sun, players with Confirmed Bachelor can calm Ignacio Rivas.

Behind the scenes

 * "Confirmed Bachelor" was a common euphemism in the 40s and 50s for a man that had no desire to be married, usually implying he was homosexual.
