Tao of Badass Review

It's a fact of life that a woman peaks in her early twenties. You may know that already, but it's something you should keep in mind.

A woman looks and feels her best between the ages of 20 and 25; at the age of twenty-six, she starts to age and everything goes downhill from there. You might think of her now as the most beautiful being to ever walk the face of the planet, but remember that she won't be so young and vivacious forever. A woman may be able to keep herself beautiful with proper exercise and a good diet - but the truth is, not many ladies are that scrupulous about taking care of their bodies.

Here's an important piece of advice for all men: Find a girl who knows how to take good care of herself. Don't be bothered that she might be too "high maintenance", because her painstaking beauty habits will reward you in the future. That said, don't settle for a woman who doesn't exercise, no matter how hot she may look at the moment. If she isn't concerned about staying fit now, you'll end up regretting it in a few years.

What many women don't understand is that visual appeal is very vital to a man. Even if a man loves his partner immensely, he still needs to look at her, and it's important for him to be attracted to what he sees. A lot of girls insist on this ridiculous notion that a man should love a woman for her inner beauty. Those girls can easily use that as an excuse for not making an effort about the way they look. After they've snagged their guy, they get lazy - actually they've already been lazy, then they just let themselves go - and they give in to the sagging and the wrinkling. After their youth fades, there won't be anything to sustain whatever beauty was there.

Many women tend to rationalize that they've had kids, and that it's natural for them to be so unattractive now that they're older. That doesn't really justify anything. Besides, it isn't quite true that there's nothing they can do to improve their appearance. Take a look at someone like Jennifer Lopez - she exercised a lot even when she was younger, and she resolved to lose forty pounds after giving birth to twins. As a matter of fact, she looks even better now that she's older. You may say, "Well of course, she's a celebrity!" - but it really has nothing to do with being a celebrity. There are a lot of non-superstar mothers who have managed to stay fit and lovely even after raising their kids. That obviously takes a lot of hard work, but that's exactly the point - a woman has to work hard to keep looking good.

I know a number of women who don't intend to let themselves go as they grow older. They look gorgeous now, and they're determined to look amazing even in their old age. That kind of resolve apparently needs a great deal of motivation. What other motivation do women need other than the rewards of staying beautiful and being continually treasured by their man? If you've got a lady who's beautiful inside and out and plans on staying that way, that's great - don't let her go. And make sure she doesn't let herself go either.
