The shit test is a woman's screening for how valuable you are compared to her. It’s a test of whether your actions are congruent with what you have promised her.
And in literal terms, the SHIT test is a test to determine how shit of a person someone is. The more full of shit you are, the less desirable you are for the female.
And,
If you pass shit tests, then she'll think that makes you more valuable, which means the two of you will stay attracted for long!

A shit test is based on the adage ‘Action speaks louder than words.’
As mentioned earlier, females test men to see if their actions align with their promises. They try to determine whether you are genuinely good or just trying to get in her pants.
If you fail the test, you won’t hear from her again. If you pass shit tests, the woman is all yours!

Most men think that shit test is disrespectful and will take it as an insult. However, that’s the last thing that they should do.
For ages, women have been testing men to determine the best partner. And this evolutionary trait continues today.
And, in fact, it is needed the most now in the times of right swipes, hookups, and one-night stands. Women still typically look for a long-term commitment, and shit tests can help them find a secure, stable match.
“You’re a piece of shit” is disrespect,
“Sorry, but we are not compatible” is not.
Throwing a glass at your face when things are not working out is disrespectful.
Talking things out and agreeing to disagree is not.
UNDERSTAND THE DIFFERENCE.

So, now that you have understood what shit test is and why women use it and how to identify whether she is testing you or not, let’s have a look at what parameters she’ll test you on.
When we talk about fitness, we are not saying that women only look for guys with six-pack abs or who can beat Usain Bolt in a sprint. No!
In the shit test, the fitness criteria test how fit (comfortable) you are in your own skin. Men who are not conscious about their bodies are seen as confident, bold people. And women seek such guys.
To test your fitness, a woman may throw provocative statements at you like,
“You’re short!”
“Oh, but you wear glasses.”
“You are not good-looking/hot enough for me.”
Don’t get provoked. Rather be confident that how you look shouldn’t matter. Hit them with the classic “Beauty lies on the inside.”
Some men agree with whatever a woman says just to improve their chances of sleeping with her. In the shit test, women see whether men will carry out tasks not usually associated with them.
For instance, a woman may ask to hold her purse in a public place or ask to wear some bizarre clothing combination on a date. To prove that they are the “Nice guy,” some men will actually do such tasks.
But, sorry, that’s not how it works.
As stated earlier, women seek confident men. So, in shit test, they will put you in situations where your confidence is tested. For example, the girl may ask you to take her to a concert where there are hundreds of people, or say no when you ask for her number.
Similarly, she might ask you to order on her behalf at the restaurant to see how comfortable and confident are you.
Even if you are not confident, don’t let it show on your face to pass shit tests.
Finance is an important aspect of a long-term relationship. To check how shit of a person you are when it comes to financing, a woman will have multiple tricks up her sleeve.
“I want the new iPhone 13 Pro Max.”
“Let’s go on a mini-vacation.”
“Let’s eat out today.”
“Can we upgrade our Netflix subscription?” are some sentences that will be thrown at you to check how you handle your finances.
Don’t buckle and make unnecessary spendings. A woman looks for a man who understands the importance of handling finances properly.

Passing the shit test is not rocket science. Here are some tips and tricks that can help you pass the shit test.
Be clueless. Ask her to reiterate what she was saying. “I’m sorry, what did you say?” It should be your go-to line.
Remember, “Ignorance is bliss.” Don’t let what she says affect you.
If she says anything negative, agree to it, and exaggerate to a logical conclusion.
What should you not do in a shit test?
