So I think the cool thing is we do have all of this information.

And so we know how to be charming, how to flirt.

What are the situations that you need to create in order to foster interactions, foster a relationship, foster emotional connection?

What makes you charismatic?

What makes you attractive?

Things like humor and kindness are incredibly important.

Humor is a huge signal that signals both intelligence, because if you can make someone laugh,

you can read them.

And so it's also a signal of empathy and ability, like, does this person get me?

If they can make you laugh, that means that they get you.

And the last thing that I'll kind of mention is that we were talking about how the internet is like, people live in different worlds on the internet.

And the really scary thing, I made a great YouTube video that was kind of controversial, but why women prefer beta males.

And the really interesting thing is that a lot of people were really upset by it.

It was about this drive for muscularity and some of the scientific research.

But the really interesting thing was the male versus female response to the video.

That women were like, yeah, this guy's right.

We're actually like these super alpha guys are like not actually like not attractive.

Like I would run for the hills.

And then a lot of dudes were like, oh, this guy's like he doesn't know what he's talking about.

So it's really interesting.
