    But you forget that

    the quickest way there is to show respect , sure some woman like to be treated like crap for some reason... but most

    prefer you to show at least some respect.
    I don't know of many woman that like to be called 'ho , slapper ,

    bitch ,slut , etc. Well at least any that i might be interested in, it may be different in your part of the world

    though.

    I agree with

    this comment!

    Women don't want to be treated with any more respect than you would treat a man.

    They

    don't want to be called ho, bitch or anything like that (although I've watched PUAs use this with the right

    attitude and have quality women eating out of their hands), but they also don't want to be treated like

    princesses!

    When a woman says they want guys to be themselves, they're not talking about the way most guys

    act around quality women. They don't want the needy, suplicating, nice guys that most men turn into! They want a

    man to act like a man. They don't want him to hide that he is a sexual being (without being creepy).

    I used

    to be one of these guys. I used to think that by acting like a gentleman I'd be different than those guys that

    wanted to just have sex with her, she'd see that difference and want to be with me. Yeah, right! What happened is

    I'd turn into the friend that she would complain about her boyfriend to. Women would say to me, "I wish I could

    find a nice guy like you". And I'd be thinking, "I'm right fucking here!"

    I recently overheard a

    conversation at a coffee shop between 2 very together attractive women and when one of them brought up a recent date

    she had with a Dr. and described his behavior (which was typical nice guy behavior), they both were actually grossed

    out!

    The following happened just this last Saturday at a coffee shop on Melrose. I went in to get a cup of

    coffee at about 6:00 PM. There was a very attractive woman (looked about 35) standing in line to pick up food to go,

    but it looked like she might have been at the end of the coffee line.

    Me – Are you in the line for coffee?



    Her – No, I’m waiting for food to go.

    Me – I’ve never eaten here before, what did you order?



    Her – The "whatever" sandwich.

    Me – Is it good?

    Her – Yeah, it’s really good!

    Me –

    Great! I’ll be sitting over there (pointing to a table for 2), I can’t wait to try it!

    Her – (stunned for a

    second) You’re funny!

    Me – (after a short pause, using an exaggerated tone of pity) Getting food to take

    home on a Saturday night, how sad.

    Her – (laughing) you’re horrible! I’m meeting some friends later!



    Me – Don’t act so defensive. These friends, they wouldn’t be “The Desperate Housewives” would they?



    Her – (laughing even harder, feigning anger and hitting me in the shoulder) what a tease! My name is Emily.



    Me – My name is Dave.

    Us – made some fluff talk for a couple of minutes (the usual stuff, jobs,

    where we grew up, interests, etc). I hardly ever gave her a straight answer. I teased a little more.

    Her –

    (getting her food) here’s my email and phone number.

    Me – Sure, I’d love to discuss your lack of social

    life.

    Her – (leaving with her food, holds up hand to head in “phone symbol” and mouths “call me”)

    A

    year ago, if anyone would have told me that I could have interacted with a woman (that previously I would have

    considered out of my league) and created such strong attraction that she would have offered me her phone number, I

    would have accused them of being nuts.

    Anybody that thinks a real

    gentleMAN has to be needy or anything other than self assured and independent has no real conception of a gentleman.



    I am considered to be a gentleman, I'm courteous to everybody all the time, even when I'm angry. I never

    lower my standards for anybody and will walk away from any woman that thinks I am going to treat her like a princess

    or one who thinks I'm going to allow her to play games. I laugh, joke, tease or ignore women...or men for that

    matter depending on what I want. That's not needy or supplicating in any way.

    The grovelling male who caters

    to a woman's every whim and tries to weedle her out of her panties is not a gentleman or even a man by my

    standards.
    To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

    We are in 100% agreement!

    Those qualities you mention are the qualities of an

    Alpha Male. Alpha Males are naturally attractive to women.

    OK So, going back to the

    original statement, calling a woman a lady is simply showing reasonable respect and is something we should all do

    under almost all circumstances.

    Perhaps I should add that I don't play games either. People can take me as I am

    or not, I don't especially care.

    Nope, not

    me!

    I have read his stuff and have increased my success with women, though.

    And yes, the first line is

    David D, the rest was all me. Once I understood why his stuff works, I was able to integrate it and come up with my

    own material.

    THe biggest inprovement was when I worked on my inner game. No amount of tricks will work with

    being congruent.

    I'll agree women

    shouldn't be automatically revered.

    But judging from your first comment, that's why players don't get the

    real ladies. But I suppose whether she's a lady or not doesn't matter when all you're looking for

    is pussy.

    That was interesting! I couldn't tell what your tone was in that

    conversation. Like most women, if it was me I would've ignored you if your tone was remotely creepy or rude. But if

    it was humor then you'd be in.

    Tickle a woman's sense of humor, and you're 90% of the way there.

    Just

    curiosity here, but that conversation, was it your "real" self, or was it a result of study and training

    Belgareth, you're the MAN. You're one of the very few guys here who

    understands communication between the sexes.

    Why is this so hard for men to understand? They think they need to

    be grovelling wimps or alpha jerks to get women.

    We want neither. Like you said, be nice and curteous, yet

    don't let a woman walk over you. That's the only secret to getting a woman. And that's what women mean

    when we say be yourselves. Men shouldn't change their personality or natural disposition because they think it's

    what women want.

    A real man should be gentle and nice, at the same time be able to stand up for themselves

    without necessarily 'abusing' a woman to show his manliness.

    All those stupid mags like Cosmo have ruined it

    I think that what women "say they

    want" and "what they desire" are two different things.
    The will always say publicly that they want a nice guy who

    is a "good man".
    How many time have u heard “he is a very nice guy but” etc. etc.
    The topic has been

    discussed in length and the consensus is the nice guy trait doesn’t seem to be a positive virtue (sexual) with

    today’s "modern woman".

    It depends on how you define

    'Nice Guy'. I still maintain that the wrong approach should be called wimp.
    To compel a man to subsidize with his taxes the propagation of ideas which he disbelieves and abhors is sinful and tyrannical.

    Cool Yo ! Read this book !

    this is

    only in hardcover so far, selling like hotcakes at my local Barnes and Noble.... totally unlike any man-woman book

    I've read....

    Can be longish and maybe tedious in spots if this isn't your main interest, still should be

    widely read.... heck, IS being widely read...

    The author is a 100% lesbian... never bi in her life if I read

    this right, who is also a writer (a good one at that) that sets out to know what it is like to be a man in the

    USA...

    So she disguises herself as a man and goes to all man places, like a monestary, or gnarly sex joints,

    high pressure sales jobs, and yes, tries to pick up girls using the standard moves, so she can find out what it is

    like for a guy to pick up girls in a hetero environment, then she tries online dating (she concludes that the dating

    scene really IS as f*cked up as they say...) as a "guy"....

    The book is Self Made Man by Norah Vincent, cost

    about $25 in US$ ..... blows a lot of that Cosmo "all about guys" articles
    lightweight trash to sorry little

    bits...

    It's not perfect... just one dyke's take on our bonejumping customs... you might learn something

    from it, you might hate it... depends...

    Here is the answer

    http://www.nomarriage.com/american.html.
    A little extream

    pehaps but a growing trend.

    And no I don't find guys who are polite, gracious and attentive

    "WIMPS".
    Maybe the brain washing have crossed over the gender lines.

    Sounds a bit bitter to me. Some

    portion of that is probably reasonable but not all by any measure.

    I wonder what the comparable list of male

    demands is?

    Talking Balance the Yin with the Yang

    The

    combination of contrasts is what makes for an interesting personality.

    A man, a woman, anybody who is only

    one thing is tedious as hell to be around... their balancing factors have to come from external

    sources...

    Women who can be raunchy and opinionated when that is appropriate, or be polite and empathetic

    when THAT'S called for, and know how to elegantly manage their behaviors are a blast to be around.

    My

    current GODDESS is the comedienne Kathy Griffin.... what an outrageous babe...!!!!! I am surfeited with

    concupiscence and I want her ass too!

    That women can get away with murder, the things that come out of her

    mouth just blow my mind.... and then she's a sweeet innocent thing in the blink of an

    eye......

    Oh Lord give me a woman with a sense of humor like

    that!

    Yeah it's bitter I agree, but look

    at the inflated divorce rate and yes some men are at fault.

    As for a comparable list of male demads, its quite

    simple.

    1. A lady in the street and a whore in the bedroom.

    woman, she's a partner in an interior design company as well as being very attractive. She would have blown me off

    if I was rude.

    It's the "real me" now. A year and half ago it wouldn't
    it have been, but I've

    integrated it and it's become the real me.

    Let me ask you something. When you put on a sexy dress that

    accentuates your curves , heels to accentuate your legs, makeup to accentuate your lips and make you eyes look

    bigger, etc, to attract men, is that the real you?

    DCW
    I figure men

    are at fault about half the time. I certainly contributed to the issues that created my divorce. But, over all I

    think its a societal problem in how we choose partners and how we regard our commitments.

    Let's add a couple

    more to the list.
    2. Intelligent
    3. Able to carry on a conversation in greater depth than the current hair or

    clothing styles.
    4. A mind of her own
    5. Attractive to me
    6. A good sense of humor
    7. Honesty and integrity
    8.

    ...but look at the

    inflated divorce rate and yes some men are at fault.
    I don't think divorce is a matter of fault but a

    matter of human nature. After all, marriage is an artificial social construct, the details of which vary greatly

    across time and from culture to culture. Evolution did not design humans to mate for life nor be monogamous. Sure a

    few can do it but they're the excepton rather than the rule.
    Women who can be raunchy and opinionated when

    that is appropriate, or be polite and empathetic when THAT'S called for, and know how to elegantly manage their

    behaviors are a blast to be around.
    The same can be said of men. In fact, all sucessful humans manage their

    behaviors and persona for maximize sucess in life. You'll have serious problems if you're an ass or nice guy all

    day everyday. You need to be able to turn it on and off at will as appropriate.

    It seems like most of us are too stuck in one mode or another, mainly because we're

    plugged into narrow contexts of work, family, necessary crap when we'd rather be elsewhere.... major behavioral

    flexibility is a bigtime skill, the bigtime players defintely have it in corporate land, media land, any place

    personal and political chops intersect... to us peons they just look phony, to their own thinking they're just

    being skillfully adaptive.

    integrated it and it's become the real me.

    Let me ask you something. When you put on a sexy dress that

    accentuates your curves , heels to accentuate your legs, makeup to accentuate your lips and make you eyes look

    bigger, etc, to attract men, is that the real you?
    I would definitely say no. Which is why I'm not much

    into all that stuff. Maybe I'm odd, but I feel like that's cheating. Look at celebrities. They more gorgeous they

    are the harder they fall when "stripped" of their makeup. I find natural makeup-less women much more beautiful.



    But I guess that begs the question of what's real? Like how you integrated the new approach to make it your "real

    you", would a woman be considered real if she integrated all that stuff into her daily life?

    Interesting stuff.

    I guess it depends on how you view the world.

    Can be longish and maybe tedious in spots if this isn't your main interest, still should be

    widely read.... heck, IS being widely read...

    The author is a 100% lesbian... never bi in her life if I read

    this right, who is also a writer (a good one at that) that sets out to know what it is like to be a man in the

    USA...

    So she disguises herself as a man and goes to all man places, like a monestary, or gnarly sex joints,

    high pressure sales jobs, and yes, tries to pick up girls using the standard moves, so she can find out what it is

    like for a guy to pick up girls in a hetero environment, then she tries online dating (she concludes that the dating

    scene really IS as f*cked up as they say...) as a "guy"....

    The book is Self Made Man by Norah Vincent, cost

    about $25 in US$ ..... blows a lot of that Cosmo "all about guys" articles
    lightweight trash to sorry little

    bits...

    It's not perfect... just one dyke's take on our bonejumping customs... you might learn something from

    it, you might hate it... depends...
    Dude! I was the first in line to get that book when it came out.

    Definitely one of the most thought-provoking ones I've come across in regards to gender realtions.

    I still

    haven't gotten to finishing it yet, but I'm very excited about the stuff coming from it. I've been spouting about

    it to everyone I know!

    Everybody does it at one level or another. It's really not phony if you're

    sincere. Most folks behave differently infront of their children, friends, boss or lover. Think about the odd

    behaviors we exhibit infront of the police officers or lawyers. It's called behaving appropriately for any given

    situation. Those that lack these skills have trouble in life. Those that demonstrate unusual skills in this area get

    along with all sorts of people, opening a world of experience most others miss.

    Wink Skills, Drills, Chill Pills

    generally I see that people are contextually skillful in their life slots... what they define as their life slot or

    even their "self" is really a function of their skill set... the problem that we typically face is that our limited

    slot is also our comfort zone... to step outside of that means learning to function well in a state of discomfort.



    Interesting/cool/attractive people, to me at least, have a greater capacity to be uncomfortable, possibly

    they don't perceive being emotionally uncomfortable as a threat to their identity or sense of self...

    Which

    is useful, because the discomfort zone is also the green growth shoot of the mind. Sometimes you might have this

    unsettling experience when you approach someone who is a little ahead of you in their life slot, and you're

    accelerating, they're just maintaining a constant velocity, and for a while you're up to speed in their slot, then

    you find yourself still growing past their slot, and there's this strange feeling of what was once familiar

    becoming unfamiliar again, departing the old familiar galaxy with all of its' rituals...

    They don't

    want to be called ho, bitch or anything like that (although I've watched PUAs use this with the right attitude and

    have quality women eating out of their hands), but they also don't want to be treated like princesses!

    When a

    woman says they want guys to be themselves, they're not talking about the way most guys act around quality women.

    They don't want the needy, suplicating, nice guys that most men turn into! They want a man to act like a man. They

    don't want him to hide that he is a sexual being (without being creepy).

    I used to be one of these guys. I used

    to think that by acting like a gentleman I'd be different than those guys that wanted to just have sex with her,

    she'd see that difference and want to be with me. Yeah, right! What happened is I'd turn into the friend that she

    would complain about her boyfriend to. Women would say to me, "I wish I could find a nice guy like you". And I'd be

    thinking, "I'm right fucking here!"

    I recently overheard a conversation at a coffee shop between 2 very

    together attractive women and when one of them brought up a recent date she had with a Dr. and described his

    behavior (which was typical nice guy behavior), they both were actually grossed out!

    The following happened

    just this last Saturday at a coffee shop on Melrose. I went in to get a cup of coffee at about 6:00 PM. There was a

    very attractive woman (looked about 35) standing in line to pick up food to go, but it looked like she might have

    been at the end of the coffee line.

    Me – Are you in the line for coffee?

    Her – No, I’m waiting for food to

    go.

    Me – I’ve never eaten here before, what did you order?

    Her – The "whatever" sandwich.

    Me – Is it

    good?

    Her – Yeah, it’s really good!

    Me – Great! I’ll be sitting over there (pointing to a table for 2), I

    can’t wait to try it!

    Her – (stunned for a second) You’re funny!

    Me – (after a short pause, using an

    exaggerated tone of pity) Getting food to take home on a Saturday night, how sad.

    Her – (laughing) you’re

    horrible! I’m meeting some friends later!

    Me – Don’t act so defensive. These friends, they wouldn’t be “The

    Desperate Housewives” would they?

    Her – (laughing even harder, feigning anger and hitting me in the shoulder)

    what a tease! My name is Emily.

    Me – My name is Dave.

    Us – made some fluff talk for a couple of minutes

    (the usual stuff, jobs, where we grew up, interests, etc). I hardly ever gave her a straight answer. I teased a

    little more.

    Her – (getting her food) here’s my email and phone number.

    Me – Sure, I’d love to discuss

    your lack of social life.

    Her – (leaving with her food, holds up hand to head in “phone symbol” and mouths

    “call me”)

    A year ago, if anyone would have told me that I could have interacted with a woman (that previously

    I would have considered out of my league) and created such strong attraction that she would have offered me her

    phone number, I would have accused them of being nuts.
    Thank you, I knew there were some real players

    who can tell it like it is.

    Gegogi is right to say that men

    and women were not designed to be monogomous.Marriage is largely a social construct designed to protect cultural

    haritage and also to insure that offspring are not neglected and cast off.In more difficult times,couples needed the

    support that was offered each by the other.Children needed the protection offered by a stable family unit until they

    were old enough to take care of themselves.The larger "village" unit often kicked in to help and scociety was

    born.In this day and age,men and women can more or less take care of themselves and thus...when the going gets

    tough,the tough leave town.Alot of the sense of scocial seperation that many city dwellers have is the result of the

    fact that the other folks in your neighborhood realy dont need anything from you and you dont need them.

    In

    other countries where life is still a chalenge,the rules are very different.
