It was commented recently that I’ve been pretty hard on the pick up community in the last month or two. And that’s true. Every once in a while I need to be reminded to show the PUA’s a little love because obviously I wouldn’t be here or writing this if it weren’t for them. And lo and behold, an article about a research study on PUA techniques came out this morning. And by “research study,” I mean a presumptuous piece of radical feminist garbage. Either way, it’s given me a perfect opportunity to stand up for all of . . . → Read More: In Defense of The Pick Up Artists OK, so this is an idea that occurred to me the other day. It may be spot on. It may be completely out in left-field. But when it hit me, it was like a slap in the face because it seemed so obvious and it amazed me nobody had even considered it before. Let’s pretend for a second that a school of men’s dating advice completely and totally “nailed it.” Let’s say that with 100% certainty, if you followed it, you would become an irresistibly attractive man in a short amount of time. Obviously, this is not true . . . → Read More: The Litmus Test This topic came up on the forums: What’s your game plan at night? Show up early? Show up late? Approach early? Collect a bunch of numbers? Or screen for logistics and go for a pull? How do you know when to do what? It’s actually a great question that is rarely addressed, and I see guys making elementary errors all the time with how they use their time when they go out (assuming they’re out to get laid). So here’s a quick run-down of how my nights go, assuming I’m out to get laid and not just to hang . . . → Read More: Night Game Blueprint For whatever reason, this industry attracts a lot of gossip about its so-called gurus. You see it on forums, at conferences, in interviews; whether this coach can pull girls from night clubs, whether this coach gets hot girls, how many lays this coach has, etc. I’ve never understood this. And I still don’t. Yes, it was quite disillusioning when I began coaching and met a lot of other people in the industry and realized that many of the “gurus” I had looked up to weren’t nearly as good as I had thought. But honestly, I don’t think it . . . → Read More: Successful People Never Imitate When it comes to pick up theory and men’s dating advice, a lot of it falls back on evolutionary theory and evolutionary psychology to look for guidance. This is where you get the typical waning about dominance, social status and hierarchy, gender attraction and of course, the elusive alpha male. But there are three logical fallacies that, to my knowledge, every single pick up site and dating coach falls victim to at one point or another. You see them everywhere. And they can lead to some really damaging beliefs about sex and women. I myself fell into these . . . → Read More: Female Fallacies A member on the forum posted a link yesterday to a fascinating (and rather large) study done by computational neuroscientists on evaluating porn watching habits on the internet and drawing conclusions about human sexuality from it. The study was massive and analyzed over 400 million unique porn viewings. The whole article is fascinating, but one section stuck out to me in particular (my italics): Q: Why do women prefer stories and men prefer visuals? A: There are two reasons. Both come down to fundamental differences between the male sexual brain and the female sexual brain. One of . . . → Read More: Dominance and Vulnerability In my six years within the dating advice and pick up industry, I’ve noticed a pattern among well over 90% of the men. Their general sentiments about women skew to one of two extremes. Let’s call them Women Lovers and Women Haters. Women Lovers skew to the extreme of loving women to the point of worship. They put the pussy on a pedestal. These are the guys who are usually far too supplicant and people-pleasing. They suffer from Nice Guy Syndrome. Most of the women they’re interested in put them in the friend zone. In relationships, these guys . . . → Read More: Women Lovers and Women Haters This is the first of a two-part series. In this post I will cover what the Madonna/Whore Complex is and argue against its impulses both from a pragmatic and philosophical point of view. For those of you who regularly rant against the state of the modern female, or how all women are stupid/cheaters/sluts/filthy/horrible, then you’re going to absolutely hate this post. Not that women are perfect little angels, but I’m going to be coming after the source of your anger and indignation. But I invite you to take a deep breath and keep an open mind. In the next . . . → Read More: The Madonna/Whore Complex I’m in Russia at the moment. And other than it having easily the hottest women of any place I’ve ever been in my life, it all succumbs to just about every possible disadvantage of international game. Since I’ll be spending a few weeks here trying to pick up the language and the women, I figured I’d drop the long-promised post on picking up women in foreign countries. First of all, I want to do a rundown of the regions of the world. Many people don’t realize that pick up theory and men’s dating advice was developed in western . . . → Read More: Tenets of International Game |
