Sharpen Your Sex Appeal Skills
By Laura Snyder

Yeah, that's right skills. Oozing sex appeal is a learned trait, not something that just comes additionally with a cute figure or six-figure salary. Here's how you can pump up your pleasing proficiency.

Fake It

There are a lot of things you shouldn't feign when you're trying to flirt with that fox across the room. Like lying about your marital status, for one. But it's safe to be a faker about one thing - and that's confidence. Think you need to be perfect to pull it off? Nah. It's waaay more sexy - and fun - to be with someone who's uninhibited in their less-than-flawless looks than with someone who's a ten, but timid.

Look Sharp

Yeah, it sucks, but appearances count big-time when it comes to attracting the opposite sex. Social scientists - and barflys - have known for years that men and women alike tend to be more tolerant of uninvited sexual advances if the advancing party is a hot little number. So, it can't hurt you to try to look your best, even if you're not movie-star sexy.

Learn a New Trick

Tired of trotting out the same tired "so do you come here often" lines? Then learn a new trick. Figure out how to read an astrology chart or perfect your palm reading skills. Most people are suckers for that kind of stuff. And there's a lot of fun flirting potential in caressing some cute stranger's hand and predicting a "great love" in their future.

Tweak Your Body Talk

The language of love is largely an unspoken one. Scientists have long studied how humans - and animals - attract and hold onto mates by silently, and usually unwittingly, engaging in mating rituals. "In couples attracted to one another, there occurs a mutual dance of movement, posturing, and body positioning that mirrors the other," says Dr. Dino Pranzarone, professor of psychology at Roanoke College in Virginia. Consciously employing in these courtship methods can often result in winning the phone number of that sexy stranger, or keeping your long-term love steamy.
