In order to get women you need to understand women. Got it? Here are five tips on how you can get women by really getting women.

1. Go where no man has gone before. You can learn a lot about women by observing them in their native habitat. Take a yoga or ballet class. Go shopping at Bath & Body Works. Migrate into a flock of lesbians. Wherever you find a group of women interacting and unaware, you’ll find a good study of these mysterious creatures.

2. Check out The Chicktionary. It’s the guy’s guide to understanding chick talk. What does she mean when she says: “I just want to be friends.” And, what’s the best answer to: “Does my butt look fat in these pants?” Find these answers and more in The Chicktionary.

3. Get in touch with your feminine side. Exploring your emotional and sensitive side will work wonders in attracting the opposite sex. Watch When Harry Met Sally. Cry. Cook a large quantity of baked goods. Cry more. Find a cute baby and say “awww.” Or, try walking a mile in her shoes by dressing the part. Every man should know what it’s like to walk in two inch heels while bra straps leave welts in your back.

4. Acquire female friends. Resist the urge to bone your female buddy. Keeping close and completely platonic female friends is extremely valuable to your scoring potential – especially if your female friend tells you about other guys she’s dating. Pay attention, take notes and learn what not to do.

5. Read chick magazines. If anyone knows women better, it’s the babe’s bible, Cosmo Magazine. Sift through the pages of female favorites like Vogue, In Style and Marie Claire to get a sneak peak into a woman’s world and some great tips on how to tone and firm those thighs.
