| Post subject: | Good psycology books? |
Hey I was wondering if anyone knew any good psycology books to read. I am looking for ones that explain types of behavior in assosiation with how someone with act. I want to explore the mind abit more in order to figure out why some women act the way they do. That way I will have a greater advantage in understanding certain types of behavior, instead of just going back on my knowledge of Body Language. |

If I were you, I'd grab an Intro to Psychology textbook. It's dry reading, but it's informative. I took a semester of Psych in high school, and understanding how the mind works has been a fairly hefty part of my learning process in game. |

Dry books are so boring to read though. |

The boring books are the ones with real information in them. And because you don't need to study these for class, you can skip to the parts that are interesting. It's best to have a basic understanding of how psychology works. Read the first chapter, and then jump to whatever aspects of psychology you feel can help you in your game. Knowing what a medula oblongata does is not going to help you in your game. Knowing how the pituitary gland feeds the body hormones throughout sexually charged interactions, however, can give you a good basis on how you will be effecting your target's mood physiologically as well as in higher brain functions. You can skip to parts like Maslow's hierarchy of needs, and find how pick-up is, for some people, an affection need, while for others it is a self-actualization need. You can skip to ideas about sex and sexuality as presented by Freud (and you'll likely want to read stuff by others, because Freud was a fucking crackpot). Also, look into books on gender studies, sex in history (oh there are books on it, believe you me), read Cassanova's memoires, read Byron and Shelly (in fact, read both Shelly's; they're terrific), read Lovecraft and Poe. Read everything you can get your dirty little hands on. Every piece of knowledge you have can eventually aid you in your quest for the perfect piece. |

~Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking by Gladwell ~Sway: The Irresitable Pull of Irrational Behavior by Brafman ~Hooked by Freda Bush (this one can get a little preachy about sex, but it explains why sex is so addicting) ~You Lost Him at Hello by MaCann ~Why Men Love Bitches by Argoy While these books don't focus exclusively on the female mind/behaviors...they are great social psychology books that aren't textbooks. They have cutting-edge research (but not presented in numbers). Even if you don't learn just about women, you will learn about social dynamics which will improve your social skills |

As a side note...the book "Why Men Love Bitches" is very popular amongst women so if you read what they read/use then that gives you insight to what they are thinking. |

Blink: The Power of Thinking Without Thinking by Gladwell I have to say this is one of the best books i have ever read. i love psych and i read this book straight through i couldnt put it down. its more about cognitive thinkin than anything else but its fantastic, it really shows how we think without actually trying too hence the title. If ur lookin for an informative and interesting read i suggest you read BLINK, you wont be disappointed. |
