"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.

The women were asked to rate the men on four qualities: "likes children," "masculine," "physically attractive" and "kind." Then they were asked to rate how attractive they found each man for short-term and long-term romance.
What do you think of this study? the fact that they asked women rational questions regarding who would they choose to mate based on a man's face and having this printed in a scientific journal is laughable.
 

"Why Women Dump the Guys Who Try the Hardest"

You paid for dinner. You drove. You said "whatever you want is fine" every single time. All the effort, no expectations.

And she left anyway — probably for a guy who makes her pick up the pizza.

Painful. Also predictable. Her mind quietly concludes that anything requiring zero effort from her is worth exactly zero. You became a free sample, and free samples get taken for granted.

The 22 Rules flip the dynamic. Small shifts that get her investing effort, money, and time in you — until SHE'S the one afraid of losing YOU.

29 women took part in the study. This study is bogus without a larger sample because it leaves too much room for coincidences.

This crap is up there with studies like "Exercise found to increase intelligence" or "Study shows having sex regularly leads to longer lifespan." In these articles on different "studies", common sense is ignored because the article is trying to draw a reaction out of readers. Only the raw data is cited, and the experiments are usually conducted in a low control, quasi-scientific setup.

This particular article was stupid. It is trying to rile readers up by making them feel victimized. They're suggesting that men's mate selection is beyond their control, as women can determine a man's mating capabilities by the shape of their face. Now, here's where the common sense comes in. Of course men with higher testosterone attract more women, because they stay active, keeping their test levels up, and by being active they tend to be physically stronger and lead an exciting life. And of course chubby, out of shape looking, low-test chumps will make more loyal long-term parents/mates, because it's apparent they lack options and will be loyal and devoted. There's nothing revealing about this study.
