Allan Pease Quotes Page 2

“Women usually expect that men will intuitively realize what they are thinking without explicitly saying it. When women learn how to directly say what they mean, men will respond more positively to them.

Men can rarely guess what their wives really want and mean beyond the words they utter. Women usually take the wrong path with their husbands by following the method of indirect talk.”

“A successful man is one who can earn more money than his woman can spend. A successful woman is the one who can find this man.”

“A three-year old was examining his test*cles while taking a bath.
'Mom,' he asked,'are these my brains?'
'Not yet.' she replied.”

“Ancestral women wanted men who were taller, older, had V-shaped torsos, and were physically coordinated — all signs that showed their ability to hunt and protect. Even in our politically correct, supposedly equal twenty-first century, women still prefer a man to have a nicely developed chest and shoulders — but not too big, because he could be egotistical or selfish — and a six-pack of abs would be a wonderful bonus. These are things that would be useful to hunt and catch a wild buffalo or to carry heavy things or kill spiders and are mostly irrelevant to the daily lives of twenty-first century men.

Women’s attraction to these physical attributes shows how their brain hardwiring is still seeking the exact same things their ancestors demanded. So, in a word, women want men with resources. Most importantly, a woman is attracted to men who will share those resources with her and her children.”

“Having resources is the prime criterion for attractiveness in a man, the most powerful of all ancient female motivational preferences. It has been shown to be as strong as women’s inbuilt fear of snakes and heights. Today’s woman still wants a man who can provide and protect — in simple terms, he has access to resources.”

“In fact, nothing much has really changed for hundreds of thousands of years in terms of our sexual urges and drives. This can be an unpopular idea in a politically correct world in which it has become fashionable to say that men and women want the same things in life and have the same motivations, preferences, and urges, but you will see that this is simply not true. In fact, deep down you know it’s not.”

“Love is a chemical reaction in the brain.”

“Married men live longer than single men, but married men are more willing to die.”

“Men and women have very different agendas when it comes to sex and love, and these are deeply embedded in our ancient past. In basic terms, today’s men are turned on by visual images and by the signs of a woman’s health, fertility, and youth, whereas women are turned on by the markers of a man’s power, status, commitment, and material resources — just as their ancestors were.”

“Most animal species seem to have little problem when choosing mates and dealing with
relationships. For them, the female goes in heat, the male mates with her, and it’s all
over.

Humans are the only species that is confused about the mating game.”

“People who feel loved live longer and enjoy better health.”

“Sex is hereditary. If your parents didn’t have it, you won’t either.”

“Sex is like air: It’s not important unless you aren’t getting any.”

“The wealthier a man is, the more frequently his partner has org*sms.”

“There are seven basic types of love:
1. Romantic love — physical attraction, sexual feelings, romance, and hormone
activity
2. Pragmatic love — to love your country, your job, shopping, or pizza
3. Altruistic love — to love a cause, a god, or a religion
4. Obsessive love — jealousy, obsession, or powerful unstable emotions
5. Brotherly love — for your friends and neighbors
6. Common love — for your fellow man and others
7. Familial love — feelings of love for children, parents, and siblings”

“Two things are now certain: Women use a man’s resources as their base measurement, and men use a woman’s youth, health, and beauty as theirs.”

“When you get dumped, your brain wants you to chase your ex even harder.”

“Why are married women usually heavier than single women? Because single women
come home, see what’s in the fridge, and go to bed. Married women come home, see
what’s in the bed, and go to the fridge.”

“Women are attracted to high-status men because status is a clear sign of a man’s ability to control resources. That’s why it’s common to see a champion boxer whose face looks like road kill surrounded by young, attractive women. Not necessarily smart women either, but young, attractive ones — that is, good potential gene carriers. Think Hugh Hefner at the Playboy Mansion.”

“Women are attracted to men who make them laugh. A man with a sense of humor ranks at or near the top of almost every poll on what a woman finds attractive and is often mentioned in dating ads. When a woman laughs, her brain tells her body to release endorphins, a chemical similar to morphine, which causes a pleasant tingling sensation to come over her. Endorphins are one of the body's main natural pain relievers; They are part of the immune system and protect us from diseases. Laughter causes a reduction in stress hormones, such as cortisol, and also lowers blood pressure, which in turn reduces the risk of heart disease.”

“Women are generally blinded to men who work in low-revenue jobs.”

“Women today want exactly the same thing they have always wanted: resources.”
