Man's Salvation



An interesting paragraph from a book on codes in culture that i have been reading for the past few days reserved specifically for boring lectures:

"Men are programmed for sex and, as much as he might protest this , the average man is willing to have sex with just about any woman willing to have sex with him. If a man notices a woman's beauty, though, if he stops to admire her physical magnificence rather than simply throwing her over his shoulder, his soul is elevated to another level. If a woman can impress her beauty upon a man permanently, if she can stay beautiful in his eyes, she can make him a better human being. She is doing more than keeping herself visually appealing to him; she is elevating him from a rutting animal to something more exalted."

Clotaire Rapaille on the back of his own research came up with this basic insight and thus the code of beauty in America which is Man's Salvation.

More than the code, the paragraph above has a profound learning about the true nature of men. I believe it is true in many cultures and not specific to the US.

There is nothing much i can add or subtract to this insight as it is more of a factual statement but every man needs to understand the basic thought that went behind it. Not try and be defensive and justify.

The picture above makes a lot of sense to me in this context and is a classic case of inter gender interaction.
