Are women naturally more manipulative than men? Click to expand...

No.Women are conditioned to be opportunists to be sure, but no more so than men and with different motives and methods. What frustrates men into thinking that women are deliberatively manipulative is the way in which they communicate this opportunism. Some are more and some are less manipulative, but what separates their opportunism from our own is the way they communicate it.Women are far more adept at interpersonal communications than men realize they are. Numerous studies have been done in regards to women’s grasp of language and communications skills and evidence suggests that this is even an inborn, biological capacity. Men have rational skills that match these, but women can accurately infer communication from looks, (i.e. the 'dirty look') and speech that men in the same instance are unaware of. It's also important to understand that this skill is a passive one; meaning she does so without any real effort or recognition she's making communicative connection because of it at all times. That's not to say this ability goes unrecognized by women, quite the opposite actually. How often do men hear the 'feminine intuition' boast or about how men "just don't get it"? Most women take this as a point of pride and is most often confused with deliberate manipulation (whether it is or not). However, men can use this to their advantage if they're patient and have an understanding of how this works.Women have a natural preference to communicate(dirty looks, inferences, innuendo, subtle language manipulations and physical presentations), but that's not to say that this doesn't break down into ancommunications (direct telling of intent, crying, vocal outbursts, etc.) when it serves them better (or their covert message isn't being received well enough).For instance, when I advocate communicating to a woman that you aren't exclusive with her you must do so covertly. Overtly saying to a woman, "hey, we're not exclusive" or "other women find me irresistable" comes off with the obvious egotistical overtones and would most likely be met with an outright rejection (depending of course upon her self esteem). Women understandably abhor overt communication in this manner. But, if you can master a woman's covert form of communication and 'imply' with your behavior or 'infer' confidence from your speech that you are in demand and are someone for whom she should 'feel' she ought to be competing for, then you can set the balance for your relationship with her. If you have no desire to become involved with her in the long term this works in that it keeps her returning to a source of attention that she highly values because you 'speak her language' to your advantage. If you decide she is worth your long term effort, you maintain the advantage of her perception of you being 'the good catch' by keeping her in a, conscious or unconscious, state of competition with other potential women. This is the primary reason C&F and Neg Hits work like magic - they are intentionally ambiguous, covert forms of communication that a woman intrinsically understands. Men who'd never attempt to be C&F or dream of risking a Neg Hit (or a back handed compliment) who muster the courage to do so often express the shock and surprise at how well the techniques work. The reason? He's spoken her covert language for the first time in his life.Think of dealing with a woman you perceive as being manipulative as a sort of psychological Jiu Jitsu. Use your opponent's energy against her.
