So you're going to hear me answer some questions live from people who actually come on live and get their questions asked as well as people who write in and we're going to go over all that. So it's a fun episode. Why don't we just dive in right now? Talking a little bit about how women select men, answering some questions. Let's go. Okay. So how women select men? So let's start with this. I've been reading a very interesting book lately. The book is called Evolution of Desire. It's by David Bus. He did a multicultural study and this study was all about figuring out how men and women simply put, how they mate, how they create their mating choices, how they are getting together, why they might even stay together. And I wanted to discuss some of that, how it relates to you, how it's going to relate to you being able to attract more women in your life. Okay. So let's go over that. So one of the things that David talks about, and by the way, he's the author of the book Evolution of Desire, I highly recommend you pick it up. And he, I think he really coins himself as a evolutionary psychologist. And he talks about the idea that the way that women are normally selecting men on just a very broad scale is his ability to be able to have resources. Okay. So, so it's this combination of having resources and the ability to acquire resources. So what does this mean? Well, of course you hear that right away. I know what you think. I even thought the same thing. You think money immediately money, resources, money. So women go after guys with money. So I can't say that that's not true. That's double negative right there. So meaning yes, that is true, but it's not solely true. It's not just about that. And that's not my opinion. That's actually discussed in the book through this multi, it's like 37 cultures that they studied across the globe to figure out what it is and how women are selecting men. So we're talking about this idea of resources. But the interesting thing to me was it wasn't just, okay, women see a man with a lot of resources, a wealthy man, and then they're attracted. But it even goes to the idea of his ability to acquire resources. So women will, for example, say that they might be with a guy because he's going to one day at least have the ability to have those resources. So that's what one step down. And then like a further step down is they don't even know how to explain what makes them attracted to a man or what that even means. But they see the behaviors of a man who has the same behaviors of a man who might be able to acquire resources. So that's why you might hear from myself, maybe from others as well, about this idea of confidence, assertiveness, social savvy. We can also say that someone who is able to, well, I guess I'm about to give another example, but it's really kind of all falls underneath those few ideas, or we'll say those traits, those qualities, those behavioral traits. And it's very interesting, right, because all this kind of makes sense when you think about it. And then there's another aspect of this. A lot of guys like to say, well, no woman or after a guy was status. They look a guy with a lot of status. That's why guys with large Instagram followings or celebrities get a lot of women. That's true. Men with status also are attracting lots of women. And status is another example of someone who either has resources or can acquire resources. The problem is that guys like to just translate that or just see, they only see through that lens. Like someone said earlier in the YouTube chat, they only see looks money status. Okay. And which again, I won't argue that. I won't because if a guy is good looking, if a guy has status and if a guy has money, he's going to be able to attract probably at least 80% of women. That is true. He's going to have an easier time being able to do it. But the problem lies within the fact that some guys think that that's all you need to be able to attract women and it's just not true.
