"You Can't Argue a Woman Into Liking You"

You made your case like a lawyer. Stable job. Good guy. Ready for something real. All true. All irrelevant.

She weighed your points, nodded along, felt nothing — then fell hard for some tattooed bartender with a motorcycle and a gambling problem.

Logic is where attraction goes to die. The "22 Rules" work a level deeper, on the subconscious switches that decide within minutes whether you register as a MAN or as part of the furniture.

Stop presenting evidence. Start flipping switches.

Belcher v Akiyama fight -- wow, inexcusable. the UFC is a business, I guess we can never forget that. Lesson to American fighters: when facing a popular foreigner, the fight must not make it to decision, because the judges will screw you the best they can to appeal to new audiences.

Henderson v Bisping - Bisping got the same judge-bias win off Matt Hamill in '07 that Akiyama got off Belcher tonight. It was exhilarating to see Henderson put him to sleep. And man, did he SLEEP!! lol!

St. Pierre fight-- knew the outcome the moment I looked at the matchup, no surprises.

Lesnar vs Mir -- Eeeesh, I was so sad to see that outcome. I expected and wanted Mir to win. Lesnar is one bitter angry brute, I never expected to see him act like he did...

Fitch v Thiago - It was refreshing to see a technical fight, after all the ground-n-pound and striking that characterized all the prior fights.
 

"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.

Belcher got robbed. The judge who scored it 30-27 for Akiyama must be blind.

Michael Bisping had no chance in that fight. Dan Herderson was out of his league in every facet of the game. That KO was so sweet.

Lesnar really surprised me. I didn't think he would dominate the way he did.

Fedor has one more fight left on his Affliction contract. Dana White has said that he wants to put on Fedor v Lesnar. I think everyone in the world hopes that fight will happen. I also think Fedor would destroy The Vanilla Gorilla.

Are contractual obligations the only reason Fedor hasn't been on UFC?
 

"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.
