How to chat up women
http://iafrica.com/highlife/hislife/opinion/338979.htm
As an apprentice rogue male you may think that women must be pursued. Alas, it's a fallacy. You can stand on your head and whistle Dixie, recite the whole of 'Eskimo Nell', or captain Bafana Bafana — it means nothing. Neither does a well-flourished gold card, if you're the wrong man.
She chooses, you see. You don't. You are the one who's under appraisal.
<snip>
There is a key to her behaviour. No, it's not in that cute commercial crapola about men and women, Mars and Venus (are gays from Ganymede and transexuals from Titan?). Rather swot up on Primatology and Evolutionary Psychology. Read 'The Lemur's Legacy' by Robert Jay Russell, subtitled 'The Evolution of Power, Sex and Love'.
The thesis is that we are still controlled by primate reproductive behaviour patterns that evolved more than 50 million years ago. These instincts are virtually impossible to resist, yet most humans are unaware of the concealed mainspring that drives us. We may think we're damn smart, and indeed we are, but we've only been that way for 70 000 years, a mere gnat's eyelash-width in the infinite landscape of evolution. That's why Evolutionary Psychology solves many of the conundrums that perplex the rogue male — a zoological title which was not idly chosen.
A female primate has all her resources banked for a fixed term in one solitary ovum; but a male squanders spermatozoa by the zillion. She's the one with a heavy responsibility laid on her by nature; an unwise choice of mate means extinction.

But if her pupils are dilated, you're getting warmer; and if she stands in front of you, grinning, with her head tilted at an angle of approximately 34 degrees from the vertical — you're home and dry, my son.
