5 Reasons Prince William Can Kick Your Ass

Prince William may be a reserved and aristocratic do-gooder with a potent charm and knack for bagging beautiful babes, but he’s far from a wallflower. In fact, the future king of the Commonwealth is a walking, talking killing machine who’s not afraid to unleash a military-style can of whoop-ass onto anyone foolish enough to challenge him. His height, fitness level, intelligence, and extensive military training means the 28-year-old Eton lad is well-equipped to defend himself. 

Let’s ignore the fact he comes across as a bit of a softy and focus on the 5 reasons why he could most probably kick your ass.

No.5 He's Cold-Blooded

It has often said that Prince William has never forgiven the paparazzi for killing his mother -- and who can blame him? But his hostility towards the press indicates just how long he can hold a grudge. So if you think a few minor punches and a Rock-style smackdown will be the end of it, you're sadly mistaken. Chances are he won’t take your conduct lightly, so the next time he’s up for a fight, he may just come looking for you with his friends and colleagues in tow.

No.4 He's As Fit As A Horse

Like most royals, William is a keen sportsman. Polo, football and shooting are just a handful of his favorite hobbies, and he’s also not afraid to squeeze into a pair of budgie smugglers for a spot of water polo. This means two things: 1) he’s comfortable in his body, and 2) he’s physically strong, agile and full of energy, so he won’t tire out easily. This will give him a distinct advantage over anyone who’s not as physically fit. While you’re gasping for air, he’ll be busy laying into you.

No.3 He's Tamed Machines

From a Ducati 1198 SP to a Chinook, Prince William has handled some heavy machinery in his time. The Ducati itself is a high-performing superbike that requires an extensive amount of manpower to control its 170 hp engine. And the Boeing CH-47 Chinook, with its twin-engine and top speed of 170 knots (that’s 196 mph to you and me), is far too powerful to be considered a boy’s toy. In fact, each of these bad boys require, among other things, strength, intelligence and sheer skill to operate, so if William can tame even the most hostile of machines, he’ll have no trouble doing so to a mere mortal.

No.2 He Can Take A Beating

Even as a child, William was a tough cookie. During a game of golf, one of the young prince’s friends hit him over the head with a seven-iron, which left him with a permanent scar on his head. William claims the scar sometimes glows, which prompted him to name it his "Harry Potter scar." Seeing as he was barely a teen at the time, William got straight back up and brushed it off. So while you may be able to deliver some killer blows, the tough prince can handle anything you throw at him.

No.1 The Royal Family Has His Back

She may not be as tough as old nails, but Queen Elizabeth II is arguably one of the most powerful people in the world. Presiding over 16 Commonwealth realms, she’s in a position to dish out some pretty harsh punishments, as proved by her predecessors. Nearly 70,000 people were executed under Henry VIII’s reign; Mary I burned hundreds of so-called sinners at the stake and Elizabeth I ordered the beheading of Mary Queen of Scots. 

Such bloody and brutal slayings are non-existent in modern Britain, but the queen is never short of strings to pull, especially if someone is trying to harm her grandson. If we were you, we’d start running.

5 Habits That Improve Your Appearance

The desire to look good is in our nature as human beings. After all, attractive people are more popular with members of the opposite sex and some studies suggest they're financially more successful, too. Of course, there are an overwhelming number of things and products you can try in your quest to be the best version of yourself. What really works, however, are these top 5 habits that improve your appearance. Adopt these habits today and you'll see a noticeable improvement in your appearance in two weeks' time.

No.5 Cleanse, Moisturize, Apply Eye Care Cream, And Use Lip Balm Every Morning

A basic skin care routine is an absolute must for improving your appearance. Start with a mild cleanser, preferably one with a 2% concentration of salicylic acid to help zap zits. Follow it up two to three times a week with an exfoliant to really get the gunk out of your skin and slough off dead cells. Next, apply a moisturizer that contains a broad-spectrum SPF to replenish your skin's moisture levels and prevent aging related to sun damage. Then dab on an eye cream, working from the outside in toward the center of your face, to hydrate and keep the thin skin in this region supple. Finally, slick on a lip balm with an SPF of 15 to keep your lips soft, smooth and kissable.

No.4 Avoid Sugar And Simple Carbs

A diet that's high in lean protein, vegetables, slow-digesting grains, and healthy fats is one that will reduce bloating in your belly and decrease any puffiness in your face. Furthermore, steering clear of sugar and simple carbs will go a long way toward eliminating acne or keeping it at bay as junk food, even in moderate amounts, is a common cause of troubled skin.

No3 Shave After Showering

Steaming up your bathroom is a bit like creating your own personal sauna. This humid environment will open up your pores, make your facial hair softer and plumper, and prime your follicles, all of which will reduce your chances of developing ingrown hairs and experiencing razor burn. If you don't have time for a shower, create a hot compress by soaking a face towel in hot water and then applying it to your face for two to three minutes.

No.2 Drink Eight Glasses Of Water A Day

Staying hydrated keeps you healthy and reduces the appearance of wrinkles. Sipping water slowly rather than pounding it also makes it easier for your body to absorb. Additionally, be mindful of your caffeine and alcohol intake. Both substances are diuretics, meaning they cause your body to release water, which can translate into pasty, dry skin and more visible fine lines. Offset your consumption of these beverages by drinking an 8oz glass of water for each caffeinated or alcoholic drink you indulge in.

No.1 Consider Exercise Non-Negotiable

The No. 1 way to improve your appearance is to get fit. Start thinking of exercise as a must-do item on your to-do list and you'll slow down the aging process, get better-looking skin, increase your confidence, and on top of everything, you'll feel amazing. Engage in physical activity in the morning, and you'll benefit further by burning more fat and kicking off your day with a feel-good endorphin rush. An early sweat session will also boost your circulation, so you'll have clear, bright skin all day long -- a potent sign to women that you're a virile, healthy bedmate.

5 Gentlemanly Gestures

The high value attributed to being a gentleman has been diminished in recent times, with the need to balance good gentlemanly conduct with respecting a woman’s equality. Many men shy away from traditional "chivalric" gestures, for fear of being labeled a misogynist. The lack of suitable role models to show us how to behave has made true gentlemen increasingly rare. 

Today, we will attempt to redress that balance, by showing you 5 of the most important gentlemanly gestures to use when you are on a date. These are sometimes subtle, but always significant, ways of showing a woman that you are attentive, respectful and well-mannered. Of course, many of them are habits which can be cultivated in any situation -- we should all strive to be gentlemen at all times -- but they are particularly important when you are in the company of a lady. Performing these 5 gentlemanly gestures will go a very long way to ensuring that your first date won’t be your last.  

No.5 Offer Your Jacket

When a woman makes the considerable effort of getting dressed for a date, practicality is not always her first consideration. There are occasions when that dress, while dazzling, simply does not provide adequate protection from inclement climactic conditions. If you notice that it is a cold or wet evening, as a gentleman you should immediately offer her your jacket. She may refuse, but be attentive to the fact that she may get colder, and do not be afraid to repeat your offer should the weather worsen. Again, as a gentleman, if you are feeling the cold, grin and bear it. The comfort of your lady is your first priority. 

No.4 Watch Your Language

A very important point which is increasingly overlooked in the modern world, inappropriate language is not acceptable on a date. A gentleman should pride himself on being erudite and articulate, and be capable of expressing himself without resorting to crude vocabulary. Not only does this demonstrate intelligence, but it also indicates that you have high standards for yourself and for the people you are around. This rule can be extended to include using overly long words that you don’t even understand. Nothing will make you look more foolish than using a malapropism in an attempt to show off.

No.3 Offer Your Seat

Everyone who has a sense of decency would not fail to offer their seat on a bus or train to an elderly person, or a pregnant lady. However, you can go one step further by offering your seat to your date. This is a good one because it shows that you are putting her welfare ahead of your own. The best way to do this is to stand up before offering your seat, rather than making the offer and then standing up. Try not to be too ostentatious, as she may feel uncomfortable if you inadvertently draw attention to her. 

No.2 Introduce Her

Much like taking a call and ignoring her, if you fail to introduce her to someone you bump into, she is left feeling isolated and uncomfortable. A gentleman will always make sure that his date is feeling comfortable, and an important part of this is having the social awareness to introduce her to your friend or acquaintance. All you need do is pause briefly to say her name, and position your body so she is included in the conversation. Even if she says nothing, she will feel more involved and more comfortable.

No.1 Hold The Door

When surveyed, around 90% of women regard this as the No. 1 gentlemanly gesture. It is a very simple one, but makes a woman feel respected. Generally speaking, you should always hold the door for someone entering behind you. Once again, it shows respect for other people, which reflects well on you as a person. An important note to remember is that you should not race your date to get to the door first; this appears try-hard and condescending. As with all these gestures, making them a natural part of your behavior is essential to ensure that your date receives it positively.
