Well you kinda answered this yourself: You should get some female friends.
Go shopping with them, eat with them, go and party with them and actually listen to what they have to say! You can learn a lot more from having a female friend or two. Not only that, you can sometimes get lucky and they'll hook you up with one of their friends! They are also AWESOME for making you appear to have a higher value when you are on the field.
