There are no absolutes, if you start thinking that all women want specific things you will be limiting your potential.
Talk to women like you would talk to your friends, talk about topics that interest you and talk to A LOT of different women. Its like leveling up in an RPG, you have to grind a bit before you get good. Just say hello to a random woman while in line at the store. Talk to every woman you can, you will quickly learn that women aren't what stereotypes make them out to be.
DO NOT! DO NOT! DO NOT! Talk quietly. Always speak clearly, be optimistic, and with confidence; avoid things you don't know anything about. These are changes you have to make, and they will not come easy; you have to want them bad enough. Keep eye contact and smile frequently. If you have a bad smile; GET A JOB AND GET IT FIXED. If you have bad fashion, GET A JOB AND GET IT FIXED. Never believe that anyone is out of your league, remember women do a lot of things to change their physical appearance. If you are overweight or obese, a woman should be the last thing you are thinking about. Change your eating habits, exercise; do what it takes to slim down.
These are not absolutes, but methods to increase your chances of attracting women.
