And masculinity helps.

But there's a difference between finding our masculinity and expressing it and "trying to be masculine."

Trying to be masculine comes across as ingenuine and try hard. A guy who pretends he likes football is much less attractive than a guy who simply says "I don't like football. I don't see what all the fuss is about, I'd rather draw in my sketchbook."

It's less about WHAT you're into and more that you actually HAVE things you're into. Having passions of any sort, even if it's odd, is super attractive to girls.

Heck my first kiss I met a girl while attending a GSA meeting (Gay-Straight Alliance) while knitting. She thought me knitting was cool and gave me her digits unprompted, and we kissed the first time we met up. She was super hot too.

I guarantee you no pickup artist would tell you to do that. And if you did it probably wouldn't work - unless you're legit into knitting which I am. It only "worked" because I was expressing my passion and accidentally showing at the same time that I didn't give a shit what people thought of me.

I'm also into martial arts and video games and other "masculine" things... The point is though that just having passions and having your own opinions about the world is the key, rather than what the passions are or what your opinions are.

Hope this helps you get laid or get into a relationship.

I also recorded a video if you prefer to watch rather than listen: https://youtu.be/7SLgHSduWhY
