"So, What Do You Do for Fun?"

She asks it casually, mid-sip. And you feel the floor open up, because the honest answer is work, gym, and a couple shows you're half-watching.

Women rarely say this out loud, but a man with a life is attractive before he says a word. The guy who spent Saturday deep-sea fishing and came back with photos and a story — he walks in already interesting.

The "22 Rules" pushed me to build a life worth talking about. Turns out the fastest way to be interesting to women is to be interested in your own life first.

I kind of wonder why there isn't a thread on this movie here. It covers several basic DJ principles, even if it doesn't go into advanced mackology.

There are 4 important male characters in the movie, 3 of whom try to help one of them, who is a virgin, to learn sexual skills and get laid. They are:

Andy, main character, 40 year-old virgin
Jay, Black player,
David, AFC with serious oneitis.
Cal, a dude who gets laid frequently via going after easy chicks.

While it's a comedy, I think it hits on some of the important scenarios, even if the guy didn't always do the "DJ" move at the time.

For example, in one scenario, the lead female throws the "no sex" test at him. He throws it back at her, she escalates, it gets out of control, and they end up with a 20 dates before sex agreement. Definitely not a DJ move on his part, but I've had the "no-sex" test thrown at me before, and it is something that anyone aspiring to DJ or PUA status has to deal with.

Did anyone see any good advice in it, or just have any useful comments based on it?
 

"I'm Not Looking for Anything Serious Right Now"

When a woman says it, guys hear a confession. A heads-up. A scheduling conflict.

Here's the translation: I don't feel anything. Right now. With you.

Watch what happens when a man triggers actual attraction. The busy career, the recent breakup, the "not in a place to date" — all of it evaporates instantly. The same woman who was guarding her freedom is suddenly free every night.

The "22 Rules" explain why. When the right switches flip, her timeline rearranges itself around you.

Because it's hilarious to see Steve Carrell get hair brutally ripped off his chest :)

On a more serious note, some really hairy dudes wax stuff. My one high school spanish teacher used to wax his back cause it was hairy, and he pulls girls like no one's business. I know this cause we went to Spain with spanish club and went out to clubs, it was astounding to see the man mack on so many women.

It's just a style choice. Too much hair can be unappealing to some women. Some go for lots of hair, so it's just a thing.
 

"Nervous Around Beautiful Women? There's a Rule for That"

I could talk to any woman I wasn't attracted to. Charming, funny, relaxed. Then a gorgeous woman looked my way and I'd become a sweating, babbling mess.

The fix took me years to find and ten minutes to learn. Nervousness and excitement are the same physical state — pounding heart, adrenaline, flushed face. Your brain just picks the label. And you can pick a better one.

Rule 16 shows you how. You feel the nerves, relabel them as excitement, and let that energy pour out as enthusiasm. Women notice the guy radiating it. They always do.
