This might be the most important article I’ll ever write.
I’ve written dozens of articles on how to be masculine and attract feminine women. My number one tip is always to LEAD.
And here’s why…
Masculine energy is about taking action and getting things done.
Women want to see you’re able to do that.
When they trust your ability to lead them, they can relax into their femininity.
That makes the relationship sexually polarised — and that’s when women can start to get turned on.
The problem is: most men are too scared to take the lead in romantic situations.
It’s one of the most common errors that ruin their relationships.
And it kills attraction stone dead.
…
What Happens When You Don’t Lead…
Feminine energy is about embracing the emotions of the present moment.
A woman is capable of taking charge and making decisions, of course.
It’s just she needs to access her masculine energy to do so.
This kills her feminine energy. And she doesn’t want that…
When this happens on a date, her relationship with you becomes depolarised.
Worse yet, she doesn’t trust you to lead her.
That probably means she can’t rely on you to protect her.
And that prevents her from ever embracing her feminine side.
She’s too focused on leading you and protecting herself.
This doesn’t just kill attraction. It can lead to resentment in long-term relationships.
A woman can barely respect a man that doesn’t lead her, let alone get turned on for him.

7 Things You Should Never Expect From Women
With this in mind, let’s explore my list of 7 things you should never expect from women.
I’m not saying that women will never take these steps for you, just that you shouldn’t bank on it.
Moreover, she’ll find it more attractive if you make these moves yourself.
1. You Shouldn’t Expect Women To Like You For No Reason
You’re a man. You’re sold on the hottie in the cocktail dress within a second of laying eyes on her.
For women, attraction is more complex.
Yes, they like good-looking men. But there are hundreds more factors which they consider.
Many of these involve your personality. So, unless you’re a high-status public figure, you’ll usually need to talk to her before she becomes attracted.
2. You Shouldn’t Expect Women To Make It Obvious If They Like You
A lot of men choose to wait for ‘choosing signals’ before shooting their shot with a woman.
The problem is: a lot of women won’t show any signs that they want you to approach them.
Some are too shy to do that. Some are worried about looking easy. Many want to see if you have the courage to approach them.
What’s more, when women do give choosing signals, they’re often too subtle for men to pick up on anyway.
3. You Shouldn’t Expect Women To Open Conversations With You
This is one of the most obvious choosing signals, but it rarely happens for the reasons explained above.
4. You Shouldn’t Expect Women To Text You First
When you swap contact details with a woman or match on a dating app, women will rarely message you first.
When they do, it’ll be a low-effort message like ‘Hi’ or ‘How Are You?’
This is partly because they’re already overwhelmed with attention on these apps, so they have little reason to put effort into their conversations.
But it’s also because they’re looking for you to take the lead and push the interaction forwards.
Masculine energy leads, feminine energy follows.
5. You Shouldn’t Expect Women To Ask You On A Date
Even if they want to meet up, they’re usually too shy or too afraid of rejection to ask you directly.
They might drop hints by asking what you’re up to, but it’ll usually be down to you to initiate the meet-up.
You should also decide where to take her and what you’ll do.
6. You Shouldn’t Expect A Woman To Make Things Physical
In Hollywood movies, it’s always the woman that kisses the man first. Once you see this, you can’t unsee it.
That’s not how it works in reality though.
Once again, they’re usually too shy or scared of being judged.
Most women won’t flirt until you flirt first. They won’t get physical until you do first.
Masculine energy leads, feminine energy follows.
7. Honestly, You Shouldn’t Expect A Woman To Make A Date Fun In Any Way…
Most women aren’t great at making their own fun.
Typically, they’re drawn towards the fun thing and rely on that to stimulate them. TV. Social media. The charismatic club promoter pouring shots down their necks etc.
Men suck at generating their own fun too…
But women more so, because feminine energy follows. Plus, they’re used to men bending over backwards to impress them. Most hotties have never felt the pressure to be interesting or entertaining, because most men are sold on them either way.
So, when it comes to a first date, most women expect a man to provide the entertainment.
Sure, they’ll ask some questions and happily talk about themselves.
But if a man can’t turn this situation into a flirtatious emotional rollercoaster, they’ll go home alone wondering why there was no ‘spark’.
It’s nearly always the man who generates the spark. So, you better learn how to make an emotional impact on your dates…
This will help a woman open up and show you her true personality in time.
But if you rely on her to lead in any of the above situations, you’re unlikely to make it that far.
