I just picked up a guitar a couple days ago. I played several instruments as a teen, but lost them all when I joined the military. I figure it's time to get back into something musical.

Girls can't do it, so if you do it for them, they go nuts.

For sure, lots of tips and tricks here on the forum too. Also it gives you a reason to have them stay over. Breakfast.

Guns, motorcycles, drugs, tattoos, spending money frivolously.

Actually what do I know. I'm a nerd who can barely lift, plays woodwind instruments, racket sports, and saves through frugality. The answer is definitely not those things...

Selecting a hobby based on how attractive it might seem to others, is pretty weak shit IMHO. Hobbies should be a way to focus on passions you have, and get away from the general bullshit of modern life.

Which woodwind? In the right context, playing the bagpipes can be a DHV. The flute, no.
Which racket sport? In the right context, tennis can be a DHV. Badminton, no.
It's all about context.

So what are the most attractive hobbies?

Beyond that what hobbies are good for improving social life and meeting more women?

The kinds of activities that will help you meet women are by definition not "unattractive" so the first question is irrelevant in that respect.

Off the top of my head:

Dancing
Crossfit
Yoga and similar things
Running/XC skiing/snowshoeing club
Cooking classes

Basically, group/class activities where a big chunk of the group is women.

Otherwise, I certainly would not counsel you to avoid a hobby because women don't like it. If you're obviously not a loser, any woman worth being around will not care that you have a hobby they associate with losers. And you shouldn't be volunteering your life story anyway, so there's no reason for a girl to even know about most of what you do until she's known you for awhile.

I have to wonder how Delicioustacos plays this, IRL. His writings while excellent and demonstrative of his superior talent are mostly geared towards guys like us on this forum.

Most of what women read is pulp crap romance novels and 50 shades kinda stuff. If you can write anything like that the sky's probably the limit. Then again, the vast majority of authors for women ARE women. Not sure a guy could pull it off.

It's such a sad sign of the times. How many dudes mention cooking for girls to impress them.. This shows up time and time again on these forums.

She should be able to cook for you. Otherwise what kind of garbage will she feed your children later on? Unless you want to be the home maker later on.. If she can't cook, bang and pass. I wouldn't LTR or marry any girl with no culinary skills.

Feminism is winning because you dudes only standard is that she has a vagina. If we stop giving these worthless girls attention and the time of day, they will be forced to up their standards if they want a man.

That being said, learning to cook for yourself and eating healthy is an important skill regardless.

Don't take up a hobby to attract chicks. It's utterly transparent and you are almost guaranteed to give off an attention seeking vibe that means everyone will instinctively pick up on what you're doing.

That said The #1 hobby that attracts women is anything music related. Even guys who are playing for tips in coffee shops tend to get some attention.

I partially agree. But some guys don't have much going on in their lives besides maybe their job, watching sport, going out for drinks every so often, etc. For guys like this who don't have many interesting things going on in their life and who need to just get out there and try new things, the sheer variety of potential hobbies out there can make it difficult to pick one to focus on. Not everyone has a strong internal passion to guide their choice of activity, or a strong enough sense of self to know what they are suited to. One way to narrow down your choices is to pick a hobby that has the additional benefit of being attractive to women - 'two birds with one stone'. If you have no idea how to be an interesting person with an enjoyable lifestyle AND you're also struggling with women it makes sense to pick a hobby that helps you in both areas. Ideally it becomes a genuine passion that you can enjoy irrespective of how much it affects your dating life.

I don't think including the game value of a hobby in your decision making is a bad thing. However, if you're choosing a hobby only to get girls then that is weak.

First, you'll never be good at it because you don't really like it. Second, and more importantly your entire frame is wrong because you're starting from a position of trying to appease other people vs adding value by doing something you genuinely like. Pick something you would like to do even if there was no pussy involved.

But how do you know that you like something until you try it?

Say you pick up playing the guitar for the sole purpose of attracting women. It's true that you won't get any good at it if you hate it, but you may also discover that you have an aptitude for music and that you enjoy it for its own sake.

On cooking - I once had a girl break down in tears when I cooked a meal for her. She said she didn't know guys could be like this. Imagine how low some dudes had set the bar for her to be that blown away by a simple greek salad.

Post: #38

The hobby doesn't matter too much. The fact that you're willing to put the hobby above her and that you can completely dominate her in the hobby are why they find them attractive.

Teaching her one very basic part of the hobby (how to skateboard, play a chord, swim, throw a bowling ball, hammer a nail, dance, etc.) is also attractive. Again, it's a dominance thing.

Sounds like the inverse of what should be going on. She should be cooking for you and you should be blown away, but not showing it, by her cooking.

I don't cook for women. That's her job.

If they don't know how to cook, then I'll teach them.

I had the same experience except it was because I used an overly strong red onion in the salad instead of a sweet onion.

Cooking is a skill that wins over women and will only benefit you and her if you want a DINK life (something I abhor) but it's useful enough if you want to do that.

Martial arts is very gay to a lot of women (and I mean gay in both aspects) very few women want to watch MMA on their own without male companionship.

never start a hobby for a woman. Improve your hobbies so they're cooler for women.

Music is a good all around hobby to break the ice however.

Contemplating taking a dance class or two as dancing is something that I've never taken seriously but always wanted to be able to do in a reasonable manner. Bonus potential to game female class attendees.

Cooking
Working out - MMA
Photography - Able to take aesthetic pictures with a nice camera is always a plus
Reading -whatever you like
Investing

I beg to differ.



In all seriousness, I agree with those that say you shouldn't choose a hobby based on its attractiveness. Though some obviously stand out (lifting, playing guitar, shooting guns) compared to others (playing video games, collecting Yu Gi Oh cards etc.), if something brings you joy, go for it man. Don't let women be the reason you don't invest your time into it.

I row in summers and go to a Latin and Standard dance class in winters. If you have lakes in the area, try sailing. It is a team sport, and you will get to meet interesting people.

BJJ
WEIGHTLIFTING
CALISTHENICS

None of my hobbies are about attracting women... My hobbies build me into something more attractive to women.

Know how to cook, fix shit, lift weights, read books and pursue a sport people aren't well versed in. I personally kitesurf, scuba dive and read books on biology and philosophy.

The wettest pussy I've ever seen was after a girlfriend watched me change the alternator out of her car (she paid for it). And I learned how to do it from Youtube.

The problem is, unfortunately, is that modern western women aren't interested in the stereotypical "Renaissance Man". They pursue idiots and drug dealers. A bartender is far more favorable than say a scientist or accountant.

That's a good thing to me as I'm not a scientist or engineer.

I got laid like a crazy motherfucker in mid to late 20s when I had little money and was sharing a house with my mate. I thanked the Gods that women don't care much about work status for casual sex.

Post: #49

Post: #50
