What’s most underrated for dating and networking: looks, money, or social skills?

"When it comes to depression, men need high performance coaches, and women need therapists." Michael said that on a podcast once and it really stuck with me. If a man's a high achiever, he's way less likely to be depressed. Plus then he linked it back to evolution: Your male ancestors who got off their arse, hunted and provided for the tribe, etc. They're the ones who would've been rewarded with women, respect, food - REAL DOPAMINE. Any men who didn't perform, they never got rewarded and would therefore feel bad / depressed. It makes perfect sense evolutionary. Plus then Michael said something like "I don't know any men who are crushing it in business, have ripped six pack abs, tons of women, and are depressed." Living life as a man is like a video game where you have to build yourself up, Winners are rewarded with achievement and dopamine, losers are punished with irrelevance depression.

Ever wonder why guys chase pussy like it's the holy grail? Here's the uncomfortable truth most men don't want to hear: there's nothing inherently special about what's between a woman's legs. For those who've had abundance, you know this. For those still putting it on a pedestal, buckle up. THE THEORY OF 100 I call it the "Theory of 100" - and it nearly perfectly aligns with what researchers call the "orgasm gap." The premise is simple: imagine you've had 10 partners and had sex 10 times with each. How many times did you climax? For men, flip it - how many times did you NOT climax? My sample came from an unlikely source: roller derby. As an official, I had access to roughly 2000 women (90%+ straight, the rest bisexual) and 400 straight men at after-parties and tournaments. These weren't college kids - we're talking housewives to lawyers, doctors to waitresses. Real people with real experience. THE BRUTAL NUMBERS Here's what I found (and what academic research confirms): Women's Reality: - High outliers (50 women): Came 90%+ of the time - Low end (120 women): Never came from PIV sex without toys - The vast majority (92%): Only came about 25% of the time Men's Reality: - Failed to finish: 3-8 times out of 100 - Main reasons: Too drunk, performance anxiety, or rubbed one out before the date Academic studies back this up. The orgasm gap shows men climaxing 70-85% of the time while women hover between 46-58%. That's a 22-30 point gap that nobody talks about. THE BREAKDOWN NOBODY WANTS TO HEAR When I dug deeper with the women, patterns emerged: - 3 partners they never climaxed with (faked it to end it) - 1 partner who got them there every single time (10/10) - 1 partner who delivered 8/10 times - 2 partners who managed about 50% success rate - The rest? Forgettable Why the massive variance? The reasons were predictable: - Lack of foreplay - Self-consciousness (especially with hot guys) - Attractive but terrible in bed - New partner anxiety - Uncomfortable locations
