A Man Must Pick his Battles Wisely

Section VIII - A Man Must Pick his Battles Wisely

Sometimes to win a fight a man must not fight.  Most conflicts are resolvable by not protesting the conflict.  Why fight about something fairly irrelevant to sexual relations and sex? Even when a man wins a fight, he loses in reduced sexual encounters, animosity, built-up frustrations and diminished quality of life.  Women can make life hell for a man who picks his battles unwisely.  When the goal is Quiet Enjoyment (QE), the fights worth the risk are the ones that matter the most and not the least.  The battle is won when the woman is naked in bed, not when the argument of art placement, movie selection or furniture color is won.  Arguing about trivial matters of no useful consequence reduces the chances of good future outcomes.  The ManBible recognizes this as the Eighth ManBible Truth: A Man Must Pick his Battles Wisely (MBT8 - PBW).  Knowing when to engage and when to concede will create more enjoyable moments in life and improve a man’s QE.  Letting go of the need to dominate and win secondary concerns is essential to wisely pick battles. 

Conflict is a sorted affair of negative results.  Women remember and catalog their grievances, and they are generally more intelligent and prepared to argue a point.  This is especially true of details of an argument.  Most men are unwilling to go where women go to win a fight in any regard.  Women know just what to say to get the most negative effect.  Therefore, only when the fight concerns core values or choices in life should a man engage a woman.  The ManBible recommends men should avoid battles unless they go to Fundamental Issues of Pride (FIP).  FIPs are worth protecting because they set the foundation in men for success with women.  A man who cedes FIPs will ultimately find the relationship a failure through eventual rejection and breakup.  Because the main goal with women is sexual relations and eventual sex, a man should drop it and get laid.

The ManBible Eighth Truth of Life

Sometimes to win a fight a man must not fight at all. Men often lose conflicts with women through discussion and argument. Even when a man takes what appears to be a winning strategy, he loses in reduced sexual encounters, built up animosity, general frustration and finally a diminished quality of life. Women can make a life hell for a man who picks his battles unwisely.

When a mans's goal is Quiet Enjoyment (QE) in life, the fights worth having are the ones that only matter the most. Most battles with women are counterproductive, and only when a woman is naked in bed or happy is the battle truly won. Arguments concerning such things as food, art placement, movie selection, where to park the car, or furniture color are irrelevant and should be ignored at all cost.

Quite Enjoyment (QE) - A state in life where a man maintains good standing with a woman of interest. The result is enjoyment of personal time without a dark cloud of unresolved anger and frustration looming overhead.

Arguing about trivial matters of no useful consequence reduces the chance of quite enjoyment and good outcomes. The ManBible recognizes this as The Eighth ManBible Truth: A man must pick his battles wisely (MBT8 - PBW). Knowing when to engage and when to concede will create more enjoyable moments in life and increase a man’s QE. Letting go of the need to dominate and win secondary concerns is key to wisely picking battles to fight. Be nice until it is time not to be nice. (Road House 1989).

Fighting with women is a sorted affair with generally negative results. Women remember and catalog their grievances, and they are more prepared to argue a point. Women are generally smarter than men. Men are usually unprepared or unwilling to go where women go to win the argument or fight. Women know just what to say to get the most negative effect. (Sam Kinison).

Only when the fight concerns core values or choices in life should a man engage a woman. The ManBible recommends men should avoid battles unless they go to Fundamental Issues of Pride (FIP). FIPs are worth protection because they set the foundation in men for success with women. A man who cedes FIPs will ultimately find the relationship a failure through eventually rejection and breakup. As the main goal with women is sexual relations and eventual sex, unless an argument gets a man laid he should drop it.

The best way to win a fight with a woman of interest is to not fight at all.

Finding the 'Way In' on a First Date

For every women in the world, there is something a man can do or say to seal the booty deal. When a man finds a woman that interests him, getting a date is only the first goal. The second and more important goal is to find the way in on that first date. First impressions are always important with women, and the time afforded is time to shine. Frequently spoken in polite society as "a way to a woman's heart," a more accurate description of this challenge is choosing the right dating method for success. Although the way in is different for every woman sought by a man, there are common trends all men can understand. This is especially true taking into account the underlying motivations and capabilities of the modern woman. Every women will possess a way into their heart, and a good man knows what approach to start.


There are four common methods when finding a way in. By perpetrating a date with a certain method of approach, the possibility of success is greatly increased.

1) The Smart Play

Women who are intellectual and deep want to see a man display creativity, appreciation of art, contemplation of natural beauty and a willingness to participate in cultural events. This is known as the smart play, and requires a man to put a real effort into interest in what the woman is interested. A man need not understand these interests, however, as a lie is not a lie if you believe it. (Seinfeld).

2) The Bad Boy

Women who are rebellious and not "good girls" want to see a man display counter cultural morals, rejection of authority, toughness, and bluster. This is known as being the bad boy, and requires a man to stop being a good guy and get on the edge of life. All men can be the bad boy if they try, and approaching a situation as a reformed bad boy is sometimes a great move.

3) Sensitive Man

Most women want genuine sensitivity and caring, and a man must display notions of heart felt feelings, love, sympathy and kindness. This is usually in the extreme for an ordinary man, who just wants to bang and have fun without hassle. This approach is called the sensitive man. When chosen correctly for a particular women of interest, the way in will present itself in time.

4) The Jerk
There are some women who don't mind, and even seek out, apathetic and disrespectful behavior. Although a low down shame, the technique of being a jerk works in many situations. Keeping them mad, being insensitive, taking full control and being without sympathy is key to being a real jerk. There is usually a good man in the wings somewhere when a jerk gets the girl.

The approach to take depends on the type of women to make. Although some would say this is a disingenuous means of gaining favor, (the just be yourself crowd), any success with women is better than nothing. Holding yourself by yourself at the end of the night is no bargain. Further proof of a worthy man is his ability to assess a situation and play it well. Courting women in the modern world is no easy affair, and any advantage for men should always be well received. Men are generally stupid when it comes to women, and therefore need every avenue to find a way in.

In the beginning ...

In the beginning, God created the heavens, the earth, and women. Belief in these words professes an extreme interest in the female form, character and action. Both as a source of pleasure as well as a compelled interest, women make a life worth living for those men who pursue. The ManBible was written as a comprehensive guide to make these pursuits successful. Truly a gift from heaven, women bring life to a world that would otherwise be lifeless. Amen.
