Most dating advice tells women that if a man keeps pursuing you, he must really be into you. Dr. Lisle says that's exactly backwards when the man is a salesman. Salesmen are trained to not take no for an answer, and that same wiring shows up in how they chase sex. Relentless pursuit is evidence of strategy, not sincerity.

In this on-air session with a 31-year-old caller named Jessie, Dr. Lisle walks through the two problems every health-conscious single woman faces: how to advertise her lifestyle without getting falsely rejected, and how to tell casual mating strategy from genuine pair bond interest. He unpacks why every male brain runs both programs, why cheaters are not the same thing as casual maters, and why a salesman's "I found the one" on date one should trigger the stop sign, not the green light. He also gives Jessie a brutal math lesson on how much fertile time she actually has left.

Key question covered: How can a woman tell the difference between a man who is genuinely pair bond material and a casual mater running a convincing sales pitch?

Beat Your Genes is co-hosted by evolutionary psychologist Dr. Doug Lisle, PhD and Dr. Nathan Gershfeld, DC.
