SECTION I

You'll Never Have to Face Rejection Again

Meet Sandy, Ashley, and Jade, three of my four girlfriends, who have agreed to show you the 26 basic undercover sex signals. Why are they generously giving their time to do this? "Well," says Ashley, "We're tired of being hit on by men we don't want to talk to. But more than that, we're devastated that we're always throwing out signals to guys we do want to meet and they just don't get it! If this helps them know when to try and when not to, I'm all for it."

Jade said, "Sometimes it's very subtle. But we always let a gentleman know, through our body language, whether we'd like to make his acquaintance or not."

Sandy added, "You're damn right!"

Why Learn "U.S.S.s"?

Are you a relative rookie in the relationship game who stutters when talking to anyone wearing a skirt? Or are you a bit older with the personality, experience, polish, money, prestige, and charm to attract women? Either way, one thing is sure. Unless you are the rare man who picks up on a woman's subliminal sex signals, you are missing out on a lot of opportunities. Don't think the beauty at the end of the bar is going to beckon you by crooking her finger and winking at you. She casts far more subtle signals that 30 out of every 31 men miss. They're called undercover sex signals or U.S.S.s and, if you don't bite immediately, she fishes for smarter tuna.

Going beyond sex for a moment (don't hyperventilate; I'll come back to it), let's talk about relationships. What are your chances of having a great one with a woman who, half the time, you have no idea how she's feeling or what she's hinting at? Or have you ever had a woman get all pissy and pouty on youand you couldn't figure why? Watch out! That's as dangerous as lightening striking your zipper. It means you haven't been reading her (what she calls "obvious," and what you call "why the heck didn't she tell me?") signals. And unless you sharpen your sensitivity, she'll lay some high-heel tracks in the direction of "Outta here."

Gentlemen, what's the best compliment a woman ever gave you? Did she tell you you were brilliant? Witty? Handsome? Or was it a breathless, post-orgasmic "You're the best!" (I promised you I'd come back to sex.) My favorite compliment, bar none, was the time a man said, "Leil, you think like a man." For instance, I don't cotton to all that illusory romantic get-in-touch-with-your-inner-tadpole stuff. I don't like Ph.D.s or authors (although I am both) who pretend to have all the answers. Whenever I read advice on sex, I ask, "Says who?" Unless I see annotated studies in the back of a book proving what the writer says, I'm as suspicious as my geometry teacher when our whole back row got A+ on the final. So, like you, if I read an advertisement promising that "without saying a word, she's telling you she wants to meet you by giving off undercover sex signals," I want to know 1) what woman? 2) what signals? 3) how many signals? and 4) what each one means.

Get your calculators out, gentlemen. That kind of information is precisely what this book is going to give you, plus a whole lot more. It will demystify women in men's terms. It is precise, specific, definite, and substantiated material about the sometimes not-so-gentle sex. In school, you learned the 26 letters of the alphabet, and once you got the hang of it, you could read anything in English. Likewise, Undercover Sex Signals has 26 signals, and once you learn the patterns, you'll soon be able to read a woman as easy as your third-grade textbook.

Do you remember when you were a just a little shaver at the dentist's office and, to keep you from creating a ruckus waiting to be dragged into the torture chamber, the nurse gave you those "What's wrong with this picture?" game books? I do. There'd always be a couple of drawings with flags blowing in opposite directions, or a car with three wheels. The captions challenged our puny powers of perception by asking, "How many things can you find wrong in this picture?" Well, we're going to play an adult "X"-rated version of that game. Several of my girlfriends have agreed to show you some of the moves they make when they spot a man they'd like to have more than "G"-rated communication with. And you're going to discover what's right with the picturein other words, which girls are going to welcome your approach as well as which ones are going to treat you as if your mother didn't have any children. Look first at each picture and try to determine how she's feeling about you just from her body language. Then, and only then, read the caption.

For example, let's say you enter a club. In a booth on your left, you spot two young girls giggling and pointing at you. On a couch to your right, two older, more sophisticated women are whisperingly sizing you up. What do you suspect they're saying?

Undercover Sex Signal #1: THE GIRLFRIEND GAB

Seeing two women whispering about you like this can make a guy feel like they're saying, "Look at that jerk, the genetic mistake who just walked through the door. He'd have to soak his jeans in catnip to get a pussy cat to come near him." Wrong. Wrong. Wrong. Two women whispering about you is one of the oldest sex signals known to womankind. From the deepest jungles in Africa to the most sophisticated salons in Europe, girls will buzz when they spot a boy they like. Younger girls like Tanya on the left and Sandy on the right will probably giggle and or cuddle with each other while pointing you out.

Older, more sophisticated women will most likely try to hide the fact that you are the subject of their discussion. But Ashley on the left and Jade on the right are definitely open to your approach. How can you be sure? It's because, in addition to whispering about you, they are giving you two of the classic undercover sex signals, which we'll discuss in a moment. Can you guess what they are?

In case you didn't know it, chicks are forever sharing sexual secrets. Unfortunately however, many men become paranoid whenever they see two women looking at them and whispering. They fear the worst, and the last thing they think of doing is approaching the giggling twosome. This is a big mistake. The fact that two women are looking at you and whispering with each other means they definitely like you. It's too bad that women don't realize that two giggling girls could curdle the liver of even the most courageous guy. Fortunately, women usually outgrow the giggling partbut they still whisper when they spot a male they like.
