Models - Attract Women Through Honesty - Mark Manson

A thread of snippets ⬇️

Intro:

“We are a generation of men to grow up without a clear definition of what our social roles are supposed to be, and without a model of what it is to be strong and attractive men.”
Written by a guy suffering his first love break up, he explores the why & role of men in relationships.

“Your failures happen because you grew up emotionally ill-equipped to deal with women and intimacy. The words you and looks you have are merely a side-effect if that.”
“This isn’t ‘fake it until you make it.’ It’s deeper than that. This is about intecllectually learning the behaviors that will cause your emotions to shift, which then lead to permanent and unconscious changes to transform you into the attractive male you can be.”
“If you’re looking for a book full of ‘say this line and execute touch plan X4Z-3,’ then you’re going to be disappointed with this book or any book like it because they are band-aid solutions.”
I’ll add to this thread as I read this book

Part 1: Reality

“Anyone who claims that they have the definitive answer to what drives and motivates female attraction and sexual arousal is lying to you.”

Some guys are great with women, but they can’t get every single one.

Why? ⬇️
“Female attraction does not operate like male attraction. Male attraction is straight-forward: visually based on physical features.”

“This is not true for women. Women and what attracts and arouses them can be maddeningly unpredictable, contradictory and whisical.”
“The first difficulty in understanding female sexual attraction is that women can become attracted and aroused both physically and/or psychologically. This arousal is unique to females as guys are stimulated physically.”
“You aren’t able to control:

-females predisposed belief about physically powerful men
-their desire to be dominated
-sexual mores in which they were raised
-sexual history
-emotional state in their ovulation cycle
-last time they had sex
-if they just had a fight with their bf”
“Across all cultures, ethnicities, ages, and socio-economic stranding, there’s one universal quality in men that all female finds desirable: perceived social status.”

“Women want men who are more successful, popular and powerful than they are. This is clear.”
“Studies show that women are equally attracted to men that they believe have the potential to be extremely successful...“
“This explains why men who display great strength and skills to be attractive, even if they’re dirt poor. It explains why the starving artist has no problem getting girlfriends to support him, and the college athlete can date supermodels even though he can’t afford a hamburger.”
“As a man, you don’t have to actually be rich and famous, you just have to show a lot of potential for being rich and famous to be considered extremely attractive.”
“Women judge social status by behavior.

Social status is determined by how you behave around others, how others behave around you, and how you treat yourself.”
