Do Men Over-React in a Crisis

As Bill Clinton would say, "define crisis." Because if the crisis is one of the mundane kind, like a mouse poking its face from the kitchen door, there's no question who will cope better. Logic tells you that the mouse is rather small and, in relation, you are rather large. You have weapons, he has none. You are on your territory, he is an intruder. The odds clearly are stacked against him. Try selling that to a woman, any woman. Replace the mouse by anything else that's furry, crawly or slithery and men will always react better.

I can think of any number of other everyday situations that shouldn't even qualify as crisis. Yet they do because of gender. Like reversing the car out of a parking lot. If there is a man around, a woman will always hand over the keys to him, with the command, "you reverse". If there isn't a man around, she will reverse into the car next to hers.

Men, thus, clearly cope better with situations that are physical, even extreme ones like fire, brimstone and earthquake. Except, maybe, the pain of childbirth, but since men don't have either the experience or the equipment, how can we be sure? In every other way, whether it's 9/11 or 26/7 or any of the future digits we will have to deal with, it's men who do not lose their cool.

Recently two friends of mine split up after a long relationship. The man got on with life, the woman wailed. The man kept his council, the woman rang her friends. Soon, everyone she knew had got (in detail) the story of her life.

Who coped really better? Do men, bottling up all that pain, because unwritten rules of behaviour told us to do so, not to damage to themselves? Whereas women, with their ability to share, their skill at conjuring up a support group, let out all the pain in one cathartic swoop. Who will be better off in the long run? Clearly, it won't be men.

Making A Great First Impression On Women

ALWAYS look your best. I know this sounds REALLY obvious but you'd be surprised by how many men don't understand the importance of this simple tip. You never know when the girl of your dreams will turn up, or where. And it’s become a bit of a cliché because it’s true -- first impressions really do count.

Here are some figures to consider from my studies.

If you make a GOOD first impression on a woman, you have a 90% chance of EVER getting with her at that point (10% of women for whatever reason will be unreachable for most men at ANY point - she might like women herself etc).

If you make a BAD first impression your chances with her reduce drastically to just 20%. This means that to make her attracted to you AFTER the first 3 minutes of meeting her will be incredibly difficult if her first impressions of you were bad.

It’s the difference between climbing a mountain and using a helicopter to fly up one. Good first impressions means you’re on your way to the top in the helicopter, bad first impressions means you have a difficult climb to success - no helicopters for you.

Honestly, I can't stress this enough -- always try to look your best.

Tiff’s 5 S’s of first impressions.

Shave. Shower. Stylish. Smell. Shoes.

Remember these 5 S’s and always take care of them before you go out.

Why are shoes my number 5 S?

Your shoes are the FIRST thing a woman really notices about your clothing and hence your appearance. Make sure your shoes are clean and fashionable.

What you wear is very important. I could try to recommend a certain look but as with all things fashionable by the time you read this it may have changed.

Get the latest GQ magazine or other fashionable men's magazine's and imitate the styles you see there -- most women don't really care what labels you are wearing as long as you look good so you don't have to spend the Earth on clothing.

Many guys I help dress better usually comment on how strange they feel wearing clothes they are uncomfortable in, but nine times out of 10 they start to feel natural and even confident wearing their new wardrobe within days.

Make sure you smell good. Again this is extremely important. Remember how you feel when a woman walks by you and she smells soooo good - you feel an instant attraction even though you don't know her - well, that's how women feel too.

Wear a good-quality cologne, but don't spray too much.

One squirt on both sides of the neck, and one squirt on both wrists -- maximum. You don't want to smell too overpowering.

I recommend cool water by Davidoff or John Paul Gautier for Men (often called JPG love juice because women love it) if they don’t sell it where you are try to order some from abroad, this stuff is GREAT!

And here's a GREAT little SECRET that I have found will help you actually pickup about 24% of women without SAYING a word to them! Not a single word! And NO rejection either. You won't find this anywhere else either. To find out how, check out my page.

Boost Up Your Excitement

When a man can't get an erection to have sex or can't keep an erection long enough to finish having sex, it's called erectile dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction is also erectile dysfunction.

According to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), an increasing number of men are reporting problems with erectile dysfunction (ED), or the recurrent inability to get or maintain an erection. Differentiated from the more common term, "impotence," which can also cover issues regarding sexual desire and orgasm, ED affects an estimated 15 million to 30 million American men.

Typically, ED is diagnosed through gathering medical and sexual histories, a physical examination, and blood tests. Fortunately, the condition can be treated in men of all ages. Although surgery and counseling are sometimes recommended as methods of treatment for ED, the overwhelming choice for most patients and physicians is drug therapy. Patients with ED report great success with Viagra, Levitra, and Cialis. All three drugs have been approved for the treatment of ED by the Food and Drug Administration, and are available through a regular or an online pharmacy.

Viagra, the first and best-known drug for the treatment of ED, is taken one hour before intercourse. Viagra does not actually produce an erection, but allows a man to respond to sexual excitement. In essence, Viagra allows the penis to fill with blood and cause an erection. Following sex, the erection dissipates. Viagra shouldn't be used by men who are taking prescription or non-prescription drugs containing nitrates.

Today Cialis is gradually becoming the drug of choice for men with erectile dysfunction and is a medication that addresses this growing issue, it is clinically proven to work up to 36 hours after taking it providing men with flexibility when it comes to sexual relations. Most interestingly, this medication does not have to be taken when the time may not be right, although it can work in as little as 30 minutes. Therefore, whether you need the effects right now or in 12 hours time, this may be the pill for you. You can take this wonder drug when you get up in the morning and it will still be effective later in the evening when that right moment comes along. And if you have planned a romantic weekend then you can take Cialis the night before you leave for your romantic get away and will still be effective the following day or evening.

Levitra, like Viagra, increases blood flow to the penis during arousal. As with Viagra and Cialis, Levitra should not be used more than once a day, and is contraindicated for men who are taking nitrates or alpha-blockers.
