Women are frustrated with men because they always want sex.

Women blame men they don't know how to love.
Men blame women that they only talk about love but don't want to make it.

Basics of Body Language for Men
By Tiffany Taylor

Body language is VERY important. According to studies carried out over 50% of your communication comes from your body language - what you DON'T say and less then 8% of your communication comes from what you DO say.

What does this mean to you?

One of the biggest issues women have with men is "Why didn't he call back?" We know why insensitive men don't call back, they're creeps.

Have you ever noticed this?

Whenever a guy is with an attractive woman, he would naturally want to attract her attention. Nothing new, right?

Renee Grant-Williams, a celebrity vocal coach, says, "The people we deal with in life come to know us by the three ways in which we present ourselves: (a) how we look; (b) what we say; and (c) how we say it." Obviously, this applies just as much to women as it does to men. If not more.
