Could it possibly be true that the women you see
as "beautiful" or even "sexy" really AREN'T?
IS SHE REALLY AS HOT AS SHE SEEMS?
By now you know how strongly I believe that women really go for
guys who do the best with what they've got.
It really isn't as much about genetic looks, etc. as it is about making an
effort when it comes to grooming, hygiene and having some
semblance of a sense of style.
Well, today I'm going to prove that to you in a way that may
completely blindside you and leave you in a state of shock.
Are you ready for this?
The phenomenon at play here is NOT gender specific. And I can
prove it.
A couple of weeks ago I was in line at the grocery store when I
noticed the cover of one of the tabloid rags.
As they often do, they showed some pictures of celebrities without
makeup...as caught by paparazzi.
What was unusual about this particular cover was that one of the
pictures carried the caption, "Guess who?" even though the photo
wasn't obscured in any way at all.
You couldn't even tell who the chick was.
I was somehow reminded of a feature I saw in GQ magazine years and
years ago where they took bums off the street and gave them
complete "makeovers". The before and after pics were nothing
short of startling. You had to look really, really closely to
believe they were of the same guy.
You've heard the old joke about taking a woman home and waking up
next to someone else entirely the next morning...but there really is
some truth to that.
And the truth lies in the fact that women--even more so than
men--really do attract us physically by doing the best with what
they've got.
The simple fact that they've got makeup and more ways to
"accessorize" than we do should make that pretty obvious, actually.
Nevertheless, my challenge to you is this: The next time you find
a woman particularly sexy, go ahead and try to look BENEATH her
stylish threads, her hairstyle, her makeup and even her personality
type.
Would this woman still be as HOT and SEXY to you if she didn't have
all of that going for her?
In other words, how much of her allure is 100% within her personal
control?
For better or worse, I happened to go to college in central
Pennsylvania, and there were plenty of Mennonite girls who were
students there. If you're unfamiliar with what I'm talking about,
the level of conservatism they adhere to is just a rung or two
above "Amish".
One day in class when I was particularly bored, I perhaps
accidentally performed the exercise I'm suggesting to you in
reverse.
My eyes turned to a Mennonite girl in a white cap and nondescript
light blue dress on the other side of the room. She had no makeup
on, of course, and her blonde hair was fixed in a bun like some
sort of "school marm".
Suddenly, as if I had been looking at one of those "stereogram"
pictures that were popular about ten years ago, I realized she was
an absolutely gorgeous girl.
I imagined her with long hair, a Benetton sweater and Guess jeans
(hey, it was the late '80s) and nearly flew out of my seat.
"Geez...what a waste", I thought.
Well, a TON of women are VERY, VERY well acquainted with the
dynamic I'm talking about here. And plenty of them have literally
MASTERED the art of working it to their advantage.
Seriously, a number of women you may perceive as "hot" aren't
really all that physically beautiful. But yes...they do the best
with what they've got.
A few years ago I featured a young woman on one of my promo videos
for you guys. Hundreds of you went nuts over her.
Shortly thereafter, I saw her again at an event and was talking to
her when I got a jolt in the OPPOSITE direction that I'd
experienced back in my college class.
It dawned on me that if she had no style, no makeup, used some sort
of shampoo that didn't make her hair so shiny and didn't have such
a "giggly" personality; she'd actually be sort of homely.
Truth be told, that wasn't the first time I'd ever come to such a
realization. I've worked closely with at least two other women
back in the IT world who guys were literally CRAZY about...but who
when you got right down to it were physically pretty ugly.
And yes...style, personality and shiny hair won out over genetics in
their case also.
Go ahead and put what I'm saying to the test with a few women in
your social circle. And when you've seen the light, go ahead and
readily apply the logic you've verified to YOUR OWN situation.
Likewise, do the best with what you've got and prepare to be
SHOCKED by the real, tangible difference it all makes.
Be Good,
Your guru
