Yeah, i have to bite on the OP's point and the email above ^^^. Women do want only two things when it comes to SEXUAL ATTRACTION: strength and entertainment value. Hell, even take a highly intelligent, brainy nerd-girl and she'll still want a "hot athlete" over a dorky computer programmer just as the dorky computer programmer would take a hot woman off of the Spanish Channel over a brainy nerd-girl every day of the week.
Meeting, dating, and mating women has nothing to do with intelligence. They are emotionally-based creatures and no amount of head knowledge, history, philosophy, sociology, physics, geology, technology discourse is going to get them wet and horny. They want to feel and need to feel emotions in order to be able to respond to you. Facts and figures and theories are utterly useless.
This has been a huge challenge for me. I'm so caught up in my head that i hardly know how to live from my heart. I'm serious, humorless, intellectual, stiff, and passionless. I do not express my emotions. No wonder i couldn't keep the latest HB8.5 interested in me over time. She told me i was "kinda stiff" and remarked several times that i never get angry with anyone. I hardly ever genuinely laugh and i can't remember the last time i wept uncontrollably. I'm emotionally flat when around other people. I'm great at feeling frustrated and getting pissed off when by myself, but, with women, i am hardly animated. All the worse, i can be self-conscious about it when around women. It's a huge issue and is definitely inhibiting my ability to excite women and have FUN with them (outside the bedroom). I suspect i'm not the only one like this on this forum...
I know the root causes, namely, my father was questioned and negated by his father and so he did the same with me growing up. He cracked down on me whenever i screwed up and so i learned that life was serious and so i had to be serious. This carried over to my peer experiences which were very difficult for a number of years. What is so ironic is that when i'm on i can make others laugh with a real witty flow, but it feels very uncomfortable, like it's illegal or something when this happens and i also don't seem to have control over when i can be witty and when i can't. It's ultimately a self-awareness, self-permission thing coupled with difficulty trusting others with my color and emotion...and to think that i'm a gifted artist!

Again - maybe there are some deeper issues involved than just mere sex advances here.
