		<description>&lt;em&gt;1. Instead of using numbers such as 1-2-3 for the women, you should just use the same classification system as you use for the men (alpha, beta, omega).&lt;/em&gt;

I don&#039;t think the alpha-beta-omega system accurately describes women. The only difference between a 9, an 8 and a 7 is that the 8 is hotter than the 7 and the 9 is hotter than both. The 7 could become a 9 one day if she makes the right choices, and the 9 will inevitably become a 7 as she ages. A man is basically locked into his status for life, which is why Game is so powerful: it teaches men how to trick the system, and I believe it&#039;s possible for a man to pull himself out of beta and into alpha if he uses Game well enough for a long enough time that he even manages to convince himself.</description>

2. I have no shame in asking a woman her age. One woman I ran across is still offended by the fact that I asked her, and would not tell me.</description>
