Nice Post.
It's true that Ronaldo has good skills on the field and to reach that level of skill you must have a strong passion, in this case for soccer, but this really applies to anything. In his case, his passion involves being really fit and being really popular which are things that are simultaneously attractive to girls and that is why he has many girls (especially teenage girls) going crazy for him and idolizing him as some kind of sensual God. Other people might have passions that might not involve being fit and/or being popular, take for example someone that has a passion for understanding all the physiological paths involved in plant development... You can be extremely passionate about that and still you won't pull as many girls as Ronaldo. Having a passion for something is always good, don't take me wrong. I believe that having a passion (for whatever it might be) gives meaning to your life and makes you feel motivated and enthusiastic (which are also attractive traits) but sometimes having a passion for something alone might not cut it.
Pick up is an art form too. You can be naturally good at it without too much effort just like some people can draw pretty good without ever going to a drawing class. But you can perfect your technique by studying and practicing. You should take both of these factors into account, but you cannot do just one and expect the best possible results. Going back to Ronaldo, yeah I'm sure he doesn't have a problem attracting girls. He probably doesn't even have to think about it because girls are lining up to get a piece of him. But for me that is not the "art" part in pick up art. That is just passive action. He has "traits" that pull girls towards him, but for those that are not as fit or as popular or whatever and they are not attracting the girls they want, they might still have to go back and study and practice the art of pick up which might just give them the extra oomph.
If a girl actually sees your passion for something, she'll be attracted almost the same way as she'd be attracted to Ronaldo. Only difference here is, that you'd have to SHOW YOUR PASSION to her in some way.
In Ronaldo's case, he doesn't need to show how passionate he is. He just is and the whole world knows it, since he's a celebrity. That's where your point is valid about his specific profession. But as for what attracts a girl, a girl is attracted to passionate people in general, even if your passion is about plant development or being a scientist. (Hopefully if you're not like Einstein or Sherlock Holmes)
