You don't have to mistreat women, although this sadly works but its not very respectful to yourself or the other person.
The keys are be confident in who you are, never allow yourself to be of lower status than any woman, This is where many men would rather beat the women into submission, rather than build themselves up to a point where women are the pursuers and not just living in fear.
You always have to remember, women are constantly testing you to make sure you are not a wuss-bag. This (the shit that makes women crazy) is genetically hardwired into them. Women have to ensure they are going to get a quality man to have babies with, they are attracted to either good looks, so they can have beautiful children ensuring her offspring are going to be able to reproduce, or they want quality character traits such as humor, intelligence and the ability to provide, so they and their offspring will be able to eat.
AS a man you just have to keep passing the tests and you'll be fine, just remember they are always testing, and women don't even know when they are testing you.
Have any of you ever teased a girl, only to have her pretend like she was emotionally hurt.
Wuss-bag apologizes "I'm sorry it was just a joke, I didn't mean to hurt your feelings" You my friend just failed a simple test of your manhood.
