Publisher's Summary
The number-one best-selling pioneer of "fratire" and a leading evolutionary psychologist team up to create the dating book for guys.
Whether they conducted their research in life or in the lab, experts Tucker Max and Dr. Geoffrey Miller have spent the last 20-plus years learning what women really want from their men, why they want it, and how men can deliver those qualities.
The short answer: Become the best version of yourself possible, then show it off. It sounds simple, but it's not. If it were, Tinder would just be the stuff you use to start a fire. Becoming your best self requires honesty, self-awareness, hard work, and a little help.
Through their website and podcasts, Max and Miller have already helped over one million guys take their first steps toward Miss Right. They have collected all of their findings in Mate, an evidence-driven, seriously funny playbook that will teach you to become a more sexually attractive and romantically successful man, the right way:
- No "seduction techniques"
- No moralizing
- No bullshit
Just honest, straightforward talk about the most ethical, effective way to pursue the win-win relationships you want with the women who are best for you.
Much of what they've discovered will surprise you, some of it will not, but all of it is important and often misunderstood. So listen up, and stop being stupid!
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying reference material will be available in your Library section along with the audio.

If everyone is looking to secure a relationship with their perceived best option, then the perception of value must be at the heart of human coupling. In this groundbreaking work, psychologist Orion Taraban sets forth his economic model of relationships and exposes the often uncomfortable laws that govern the sexual marketplace. After listening to "The Value of Others," you'll never look at relationships the same way again.

If we all want love, why is there so much conflict in our most cherished relationships? To answer this question we must look into our evolutionary past, argues prominent psychologist David M. Buss. Based one of the largest studies of human mating ever undertaken, encompassing more than 10,000 people of all ages from 37 cultures worldwide, The Evolution of Desire is the first work to present a unified theory of human mating behavior.

What do you do after you write a #1 best-selling book about your drunken, sexual misadventures that makes you rich and famous?

Stuffed full of ridiculous stories of bad decisions, debauchery, and sexual recklessness, Assholes Finish First starts where I Hope They Serve Beer In Hell left off, then proceeds to "some next-level shit."

Models is the first book ever written on seduction as an emotional process rather than a logical one, a process of connecting with women rather than impressing them. It's the most mature and honest guide on how a man can attract women without faking behavior, without lying and without emulating others. A game-changer.

Story
Power has an appearance and appearance has power. Ideally those two would line up together and the world would be full of good, masculine men who dress and look like good masculine men. But all too often, reality is something different. There are good men and strong leaders out there who dress and look like children or bums. There are awful, lazy men in the world who dress in a way that hides their vices from those around them and makes them appear better than they truly are. In an attempt to correct for these disparities, our current culture tries to rob both appearance of its power and power of its appearance - to say that the way a person dresses or looks doesn’t - or at least shouldn’t matter.

Men have been conditioned to be the quintessential "nice guy". They're trained to be overly humble, kind to a fault, and that just "being themselves" is enough to attract and keep the woman of their dreams. Men are told to believe that conventional masculinity is toxic and to put women ahead of their own interests, passions, and purpose. This book exposes the comforting lies you've been told throughout your life for what they really are, enabling you to become a truly authentic alpha who chases excellence and leads a successful passion-filled life.

This essay aims to inform the reader about the real mathematical chances of success he faces in the pursuit of women, as well as the modern-day risks, so that he may make an informed economic decision as to how he best invests his life. It also aims to align the reader's expectations with reality so his life is not ruined by delusion or hope, both of which have ruined millions of lives in the past. But in short, this essay is nothing less than the most important cost-benefit analysis any man will read.

Surprisingly funny, smart and well written
This book is different from the psychology and other serious non-fiction books I am reading. It made me burst out laughing within the first few minutes, once I got over the shock from the informal tone and swearing. After all, the book that recommended the author Geoffrey Miller was on psychology with references to poetry. It's a quality book however. It's funny and it's a valuable addition to a man's library.

Life-changing
Great book for anyone who struggles with meeting and interacting with woman. It's not just about meeting girls but also becoming a better person. I just wish the website the author's mentions still worked. However, the reading list in the PDF has pointed me towards some great books that do more than the website ever could. I found "Men are From Mars and Women are From Venus", and "The FastDiet," just to name a few.

My new bible
I recently found myself divorced at 30 years old. I've read all about being a "nice guy" and how it led me nowhere, so I needed to find a way to get the love life I craved. I was skeptical of Tucker Max's name on the book because I was a fan of his previous books, but it was not the type of man I really wanted to be.
I was hooked immediately and decided to practice a lot of the teachings in this guide, and I am happy to report that this stuff works. I took control of myself as a man and used some of the self-bettering techniques and advice to meet women. I only wish this book existed in my early 20's

More than just great dating advice
Mate was surprisingly funny and full of thoughtfully presented and well researched information on the male and female experience in dating. The authors present ample examples of what we’re doing wrong and should be doing better as men looking to improve our lives and attraction skills. Listen as an audiobook and I bet you’ll find time to get through it in a few days. The chapters build on subjects that we’ve taken for granted or haven’t been taught before. Beware… this book will give you superpowers with women if you understand and apply the basic concepts in this book.
