Excerpts from The Book of Love:

The Low Road
Women are like elephants: I like to look at them,
but I wouldn't want to own one. W.C. Fields
The course of true love never did run smooth.
Shakespeare
3. Men and women have completely different roles to fulfill in nature.
a. The responsibility for the procreation of the human race bears
primarily on the shoulders of the woman.
b. Women are the attractive ones; men are the attracted
ones.
Nature has assigned the female and male mammal very specific, different
roles in order to carry out her program. Unlike birds that pair-bond for
life, most mammals are not programmed that way.
a. Because the
female conceives, gestates, and bears the child, she has much more at
stake and much more at risk in any coupling than does the male. The weight
of responsibility for the procreation of the human race has been placed
squarely on the woman's shoulders. Always remember this, because it determines
much of a woman's behavior. She is in charge of this all-important task,
and she therefore has to make the best choice she can amongst those males
she attracts. This is why, in modern terms, women spend much more of their
time than men in looking attractive---by shopping for the right clothes,
makeup, hair products, and spending the time and effort to use these tools
to make themselves as attractive as they can. The pressure is on them
to ATTRACT and there are many modern day weapons they have at their disposal
to enable them to do this, from hair color and style and makeup to clothing
that accents their best attributes. So much so, that most so-called 'beautiful'
models are actually quite plain looking (a blank canvas) and are a product
of their makeup who you wouldn't look twice at in the street if you saw
them without their makeup and fancy clothes.
b. Women
instinctively know that men are visually attracted to them. In all species
of animals there is always one sex that is the attracted and one
that is the attractive. In humans, it is the female who is attractive
and the male who is attracted. It is the female who does the advertising.
Nature's role for the human male is to be
attracted to many females, but it serves no genetic purpose for her to
mate with more than the one man she selects because she will only conceive
from one at a time. Most males would then be rejected and have to go searching
for another female they were attracted to who would have them.
.
A man in the house is worth two in the street.
Mae West
40. Women like a bold approach.
If you make a bold approach or a bold gesture,
you can bet you'll get her attention, make an impression, and she'll remember
it, even if she plays coy in her response. This is the old "grand
gesture" routine the Victorians were so mad about, and it won't go
unnoticed. Those Victorians were no dummies---just look at the beautiful
houses they built, and the grand sense of style they possessed about everything
they did (it's certainly my favorite period, in terms of sheer beauty
of expression). If you want to follow it up at a later date, she'll make
time for you because she'll want more. Just reverse the situation and
ask yourself if you would be flattered and would remember a confident,
bold approach by a woman. Of course you would. As you will read later
on, Cervantes said, "Demonstrations of love are never altogether
displeasing to women..."
while Mae West said....
Too many girls follow the line of least
resistance...but a good line is hard to resist.
I was in a pub and saw a gorgeous, stacked brunette talking to a good-looking
guy, and couldn't take my eyes off her. I waited until he went to the
bathroom, and walked up to her and whispered in her ear, "You're
absolutely gorgeous," (after some Dutch courage--in fact, is was
English Courage, having sunk two 20-ounce pints of English "Courage"
ale!). That got a huge smile and a warm "Thank you." I made
my way back to my seat before her date came back, and was rewarded with
flirting glances and deep breaths and arched backs all evening until he
went off again, when I got her name and she took my phone number.
The guy she was with was her husband, but I got
several very nice phone calls and a lovely, surprise visit one day.
If you are moved to make a bold approach to a woman but suffer the trembles,
just reverse the situation and think how you would react if she came up
to you and said what you are about to say to her.....that should give
you the confidence to overcome your reticence and approach her. Faint
heart never won a fair lady! Go get her. She's gettable.
Remember, the more you practice this stuff---the
more you DO it---the better at it you'll become, and your success rate
will begin to climb like crazy.
