A direct approach to understanding women, 31 Dec 2005
By A Customer
This review is from: Understanding Women: The Definitive Guide to Meeting, Dating and Dumping, If Necessary (Paperback)
This book will seriously improve your chances of getting a date and succeeding with women. I have long been baffled by women, how they behave and what they value. Until I read this book I admit I was fairly negative about dating, and have several friends with similar attitudes (I have recommended this book to them!). This book is frank, and could be slightly irritating to some men, but then, as the author says, if you want a women then you have to accept that this is the way it is.After reading this book my attitude to dating has been transformed and I now realise that the average man can do many simple things to improve their chances of meeting someone and developing a relationship. There is no substitute for confidence and experience but aside from this, the average male can improve himself in many other ways which will be a big help. This book reveals specifically what women value and what they are looking for in a potential partner (Women are very picky and have a lot of men to choose from!). If you had any doubts then after reading this book it will be clear to you. According to the book, men fail to be attractive to women in very basic ways and therefore reduce their chances of getting a date, e.g. men should: lose the beer gut, keep teeth in tip-top condition, dress correctly ("hugely important"), keep well groomed, be a gentleman at all times, basically make yourself as attractive as possible, etc. The most interesting chapter for me was the one called "Three types of men". The three types of men that women love are: The Confident Man, The (elusive) Bad Boy, and The Smart Guy. The trick is to be yourself and "by combining these factors, you will find your own personal pattern and comfort level and then work it. If you can do this, then you won't have a worry in the world.". Must be something in it... As a side note, reading the book called "The Human Animal" by Desmond Morris (in particular, the chapter called "The Biology of Love") will give you a more scientific angle on human behaviour, courtship, sex, etc.
