    Anyone Else Unattracted to Women Who have Traveled?

    Good point. I, for one, would love to travel more -- but for my own curiosity at the world beyond the NYC coastline, not to pad my resume. It's my understanding that the OP is pointing out how a list of countries visited is somehow a status symbol. On OLD, it's often given as such. I've seen...

    Anyone Else Unattracted to Women Who have Traveled?

    This is an interesting viewpoint. To me however, I do not feel threatened, challenged, or inadequate by a woman who blows her savings and lives check to check so she can take Taj Mahal selfies, or a woman who is reliant on a social media income stream that will dry up as soon as younger...

    Anyone Else Unattracted to Women Who have Traveled?

    Men who are grinding it out and building their net worth don’t have time to globetrot. Not having the same travel resume as an Instaho is actually a DHV.

    Add +1 to your SMV with these simple two steps

    The spirit of this advice is spot-on -- I feel the actual instructions are quite excessive and some of them are not backed with any facts or science. A salon-grade haircut where I live is $40, plus tip it's closer to $50. Fine every now and then, or right before a date or a special event. Not...

    It's 2021, and the height-shaming is reaching catatrosphic levels

    Well then how do you know? She told you? You’ve personally witnessed every single instance of a 5’10 guy approaching her, her whipping out a measuring tape, and going “nope, sorry, you’re a really cute, attractive man but you’re 2 inches shy?” Let me reiterate— this is a hang up you have...

    It's 2021, and the height-shaming is reaching catatrosphic levels

    How do you guarantee that you’ve experienced consistent, outright rudeness and rejection for your height? Seriously, are you actually 5’3? At 5’10, 95% of this is in your head. The other 5% is from swipe apps where chicks are screening out hundreds of men based solely on pics and height. Get...

    Tips on Getting Shredded in Real Life?

    I’m not sure about the science in terms of units of alcohol, but if you binge drink on the weekend, your test will be recovering until about mid-week. Hence why the Monday after a party weekend is rough. If you’re concerned about booze and T, keep it to 3 drinks max. Personally I can’t do that...

    It's 2021, and the height-shaming is reaching catatrosphic levels

    So in other words, it was largely speculation and a projection of a self-limiting belief about your “short stature” and not the actual, confirmed reason you came up short with these women. I appreciate your answer because it was exactly what I knew it would be.

    what's up with feminine men, and women being attracted to them?

    Most male "heartthrobs" appeal to younger and adolescent women. Boy bands, Justin Bieber, the Jonas Brothers, Hansen (Taylor Hanson legitimately looked like a girl) etc. -- their primary target audience are girls aged 10-21. Girls this age are not fully developed, and their attraction...

    Recommendations for concealers for men?

    I imagine "for men" concealers are the same concealers women use, just branded for men to appear more "manly." No amount of branding can make female cosmetics a masculine thing, however. Korean "K-pop" men are the poster children for extremely effeminate, gender-fluid men. They often wear...

    Women are selfishly unpunctual with time

    Can't tell you how many times a woman showed up 15-20 minutes late to a first date, I playfully ribbed her about it but was otherwise unfazed, and knew what her vagina tasted like the next morning. Besides, I really don't mind chilling at the bar alone for a bit and sipping a bourbon. I swear...

    Period and chill

    Most women opt out of period sex because they're self-conscious about it. Personally, I think menstruating is very feminine and beautiful, and I really don't mind making jelly doughnuts and getting some war paint going. Just reassure her that she's beautiful and sexy no matter what, put down...

    Odd Situation - Girl with Boyfriend

    I had a crush in college, we kept in touch. She moved to London and got married. We had a sporadic, G-rated dialogue over Facebook for a few years. It turned into an emotional affair. She visited me in NYC and she told me all the same stuff I've heard, and would hear since. Her husband was...

    It's 2021, and the height-shaming is reaching catatrosphic levels

    I hear you! But also keep in mind, there's a lot of Italian, Irish and Hispanic ethnic representation here in NJ, I would dare say that our average male height is probably shorter than say, in the midwest where genetic stock is skewed more toward being Germanic and Nordic. But yeah, this is...

    It's 2021, and the height-shaming is reaching catatrosphic levels

    So, you've walked up to a girl, opened her, and she flat-out said "sorry, you're too short?" Could you describe exactly how the face-to-face height rejections happened, in the instances where you were rejected solely and exclusively for your lack of height, and no other factors? I'm really...

    How to deal with getting old?

    Not sure this is normal or healthy. Part of maturity and self-acceptance is making peace with your own mortality. I would do it soon. I had my weird existential crisis about dying when I was in my late 20's. After I accepted my inevitable death, I felt peace, calm, and motivation to start being...

    How to deal with getting old?

    Engineering is a huge commitment of time, energy, focus, and money. I knew guys with engineering majors in college and they just burned out. It's not easy. I don't know much about the engineering field. I do know, however, that being a 45-year old rookie in any professional field can be a major...

    Tips on Getting Shredded in Real Life?

    Learn to love vodka seltzers. Lowest calorie drink that I'm aware of. Liquor still has calories -- however, at 5+ drinks, the concern is more with damaging your liver, tanking your testosterone, and the premature aging of your skin, not so much the surplus calories.

    How to deal with getting old?

    Growing old is a luxury and a privilege that has been denied to most of the human beings who have spent time on this earth. Remember that.

    How to deal with getting old?

    You don't want to live Elon Musk's life. You only see the fabulous wealth and social influence. You don't see the 4 hours of sleep each night, skipped meals, no days off, no vacations, soul-crushing stress, the non-stop rat race to keep up with his insane work load. Just look at this face...
