10 SKILLS TO IMPRESS WOMEN.

1 Conversation
Difficulty to acquire: 6/10
Though it might not strike you as much of
a skill when you’re shooting the bull with
friends, conversation with women — in
whom you’re interested and whom you
don’t know well — is a skill, and one that
takes some practice. Listening and
actually paying attention becomes
infinitely more important. You want to
come across as both confident and
empathetic, which is something of a
balancing act. Being able to explain and
adequately express yourself, though, can
easily cover for lacking any of these other
skills, which is why it’s so crucial.
2 Style and grooming
Difficulty to Acquire: 2/10
Every guy has his own personal style, but
there’s a thin line between hipster
carelessness and looking like a slob. It’s
better to stay a comfortable distance on
the clean-cut side of that line. There’s
nothing difficult or even time-consuming
about good grooming, but women often
complain that men simply don’t bother to
take care of their appearances, and the
only excuse to let yourself go completely
is laziness.
3 Bedroom skills

s*x is important, even if not for its own
sake, then because women often read
into it emotionally and assign it its own
relevance as an indicator of how you feel
about them
4 Handyman skills
Difficulty to acquire: 4/10
This broad category covers everything a
man can reasonably be expected to do in
maintaining a home and doing basic
repairs; none of this stuff is as
complicated as working with a car, and it
mostly comes down to having the right
tools for the job and being willing to get
your hands dirty. There’s virtually nothing
the internet can’t tell you how to fix, but
it’s no less impressive to a woman when
you can be relied upon for all those
repairs
5 Athletics
Difficulty to acquire: 6/10
As much as women want you to have an
emotional, sensitive side, they still want
you to be a man, and playing a tough,
physically demanding sport is about as
masculine as it gets. Bragging about your
golf game might impress your coworkers,
but it doesn’t have quite the same impact
to a woman as boxing, football or some
other high-intensity, testosterone-fueled
activity.
6 Cooking
Difficulty to acquire: 3/10
You don’t have to take classes or start
shopping for expensive cookware — just
start small. Every woman, everywhere, is
just a little bit pleasantly surprised to
discover that a man can cook, actually
wants to cook and seems to genuinely
know what he’s doing, so begin by
perfecting a handful of recipes. The bonus
here is that you’ll soon be eating better
and tastier food yourself. Once you’ve
mastered a few classics (like making the
perfect steak and some side dishes),
expand your repertoire as you see fit.
7 Dancing
Difficulty to acquire: 4/10
If there’s one way to demonstrate that
you’re confident, easygoing and
approachable all at once, it’s dancing. On
the surface, dancing is pretty
straightforward, and there’s certainly
nothing hard about it — you’re moving
your body rhythmically, and how you’re
doing it isn’t too important. The hangup
here is feeling that you’re too
uncoordinated or too shy to try, in which
case it may seem daunting.
8 Fixing a car
Difficulty to acquire: 6/10
Learning how to fix a car will probably
seem daunting if engines have mystified
you up until this point, but luckily you
don’t really need to know much. The
objective is to understand enough that
you maintain your car correctly and can
actually diagnose car troubles (particularly
in the company of a woman) instead of
just opening the hood and looking
puzzled. Besides, knowing the basics will
make you seem like less of a rube to
dishonest mechanics.
9 Playing an instrument
Difficulty to acquire: 7/10
For starters, playing an instrument well is
just an impressive ability, period. It
speaks volumes, to men and women
alike, about your character. On the other
hand, where another man might just
respect your ability to master what is, for
most people, not an easy skill, women
will equate your ability to play an
instrument with a poetic sensibility they
might not otherwise have recognized in
you.
10 Speaking other languages
Difficulty to acquire: 8/10
Certainly the hardest skill on this list to
pick pick up as an adult, speaking a
foreign language is a sign either of
dedication (that you’ve taken the time and
effort to learn) or of worldliness, and
women will be intrigued by both of those,
particularly if you don’t flaunt the ability
and just let it come up at the right
moment. Obviously you’re not going to
learn a language overnight, but the
resources are endless — you only need to
supply the time.
