Body Language Project: Dating, Attraction and Sexual Body Language (BLP) offers a unique perspective on body language as it relates to the 'mating dance' between a man and a woman during the courting phase of a relationship, including the approach and invitations to approach. The book encompasses reactions and changes in a woman's body language which occur during a conversation. If a man can learn and understand these, they will drastically aid him in steering any situation to his advantage.

BLP taught me how to look for positive and negative body displays on a global level. Instead of only looking at body leaning, rocking, posture, and fidgeting (like many other books do), this book gave me an in-depth perspective on everything to look for from head to toe. Included are what a woman is doing with her fingers, toes, leg position, and blinking, as well as many gross observations on proximity and variations of eye contact. Heck! Even how she chews her food is covered.

I learned how the exchange of body language creates a 'mating dance,' which can be learned and played to gain the proper perspective of how women around you are feeling. This book shows you exactly how to create that dance and read the social situation correctly. It's not just the postures a woman is in which dictate how she feels, it is how those are directed that matters. The book showed me how to distinguish which of the indicators of interest a woman is showing are directed toward you, instead of toward another man, saving me lots of time in meeting girls. I can now approach women who WANT me to approach them, and not waste time with those who are not interested or unavailable.

Body Language Project: Dating, Attraction and Sexual Body Language takes an in-depth look at female body language and body reactions to social stimuli. Where the book separates itself from others of its kind is in the perspective of male body language and personality traits which have the power to provoke specific social reactions from women. The book gives detailed explanations, as well as extensive and amazingly accurate pictorial sections, of both male and female positive and negative body language. The photos are also placed in a social courtship setting adding to the realism. BLP showed me how to look at the body as a whole instead of looking at specific parts to assess interest. Mixed signals are also addressed, and decoded in the book, which allowed me to find the true underlying tone of the situation without paying undue attention to less significant gestures.

Overall, the book is unlike any other body language book I've read. There is a logical progression showing what to look for in a woman to determine her level of interest, how the level of her interest changes (positively or negatively), what can be read in her body language, how to display your own body language in a way which is non-threatening and attractive to women, and most importantly, the 'mating dance,' which is crucial to understand if one is to successfully use body language to gain the advantage. The pictures used to demonstrate body language are very realistic and are not dramatized for the purpose of show. They represent 'the real thing,' whereas many books only show exaggerated postures and are not practical in everyday life.

This book has given me a unique and deep understanding of the role of body language in the courtship interaction.

Quote: "I read, study, practice and do all of these things as an integral part of my life. I became interested in dating and pick-up after a long-term relationship of mine had ended. I thought that there MUST be an intellectual way to going about getting what I wanted in women. I am a very scientifically-based-in-thought person, and loved what the community had to offer on social dynamics and why and how they work."
