Do This Once and Watch How Women Treat You Differently

The speaker claims that pausing to give yourself a subtle "winner smile" right before any interaction with a woman instantly makes you read as confident and makes her treat you better.

Key points

  • Most men start interactions from a place of self-doubt, and the resulting nervous body language and energy subtly turn women off, leading to colder, less affectionate responses.
  • The fix the speaker calls the "winner smile": before approaching, starting a conversation, a date, or even hugging a partner, take a second to smile slightly to yourself as if you already know it will go well.
  • Even if you are nervous inside, this small shift in expression supposedly makes you look more sure of yourself, calm, charismatic, approachable, and likable, and women pick up on it instantly.
  • Example contrast: saying "hey, how are you, how's your day going" neutrally vs. doing it after the winner smile, which he says completely changes your energy and how she responds.
  • He likens it to the look of someone about to compete against opponents he knows he will beat.
  • Frames poor results with women as a fixable skill issue, not proof that you are not good-looking enough or that women dislike guys like you.

Reception

  • Strongly positive, with many commenters saying the "winner smile" is simple and that it works, including some who had stumbled into it inadvertently.
  • The most-liked comment is unrelated to the smile: a man proud of asking three women to hang out despite a fear of rejection, drawing encouragement from others.
  • Recurring theme: the trick generalizes beyond dating, with commenters reporting it helps in business meetings and all areas of life.
  • Several tie it to confidence and losing the fear of rejection, framing approaching as a muscle built through repetition and practice.
  • A few add nuance, e.g. a smile gets the introduction but you need substance to back it up, and one notes most people seem angry these days so it sets you apart.
