"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.

Why do men have nipples?

Just had a weird thought this morning. Humans are the only mammals where the males as well as the females have nipples. Look at your dog, cat, a whale, a mouse, a cow, a sheep, whatever, none of the males have nipples. Since nipples only serve the biological function of providing milk to a newborn and males have no milk glands in the chest, why on earth do we men have nipples? I've never understood that.
 

"You'll Never Feel READY to Walk Over"

Next Monday you'll feel more confident. After the gym you'll feel more confident. After one more drink you'll feel more confident. After you get a better haircut, a better jacket, a better job.

You've been "getting ready" for two years.

She's standing ten feet away right now. She'll be gone in four minutes. No amount of preparation will manufacture the courage that only comes from moving your feet.

Walk over. Stumble through the first sentence. Let it be clumsy. Let it be imperfect. You will feel more alive in those ten seconds than you have all month.

The hormones that drive sex-specific characteristics (e.g. genitalia) kick in after many other features (e.g. nipples) have developed on the fetus.

Exactly what Duo said. There is actually a somewhat humorous book/cd called "Why do men have nipples" It's a sorta story but at the sametime asks and answers random health questions such as this.

The answer is that as embryos men and women have similar tissues and body parts. If anything the embryo follows a 'female template'. That is why nipples are present in both sexes. It is the effect of the genes, the Y chromosome and the hormone testosterone that brings about the changes and masculinises the embryo. Testosterone promotes the growth of the penis and testicles. Because nipples are there before this process begins the nipples stay!

A certain level of the female hormone estrogen is present in all men. If, as a result of disease or a condition affecting hormones, breast tissue in men can grow (gynecomastia- abnormal enlargement of breasts,) and men can produce milk.

We are all chipped from the same rock.

If there is a way to simplify, Mother Nature will.


Ovaries and testicles are identical early on.
Why is it men's and women's *******s are the same?

It's cause Mother Nature is efficient and doesn't create redundant equipment.
 

"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.

Vestigial organs. You don't need 'em, but chicks dig 'em.

Duo/DJ damage were right.

Nipples in male humans isn't an example of a vestigial "organ", because a vestigial organ is an organ that once had a purpose, or function, from an evolutionary point of view, but no longer does today (or has a very reduced function) though the structure itself remains. Examples in humans include the appendix and coccyx.

You didn't look very close! ALL male mammals have nipples. My male cat has nipples and my male dog had nipples. They are much smaller and do not function, but they are there.

"She Liked You in March. It's October Now."

Attraction runs on a clock.

She flirted for weeks. Touched your arm. Found reasons to be alone with you. And you were careful. Respectful. Waiting for the right moment.

The moment had a shelf life. It expired around month two, and by the time you asked her out, she'd quietly filed you under "little brother."

One of the hardest lessons inside the 22 Rules: women rarely wait. Interest either grows or it decays, and nothing decays it faster than a man who never moves.

Make the move while she's still inventing reasons to be near you.
