Do carry on blaming the women! Being sour grapes about the opposite sex always gets you laid.

Or each of them is like Sisyphus, punished for their deceitfulness and manipulation by constantly trying to roll a giant boulder up a hill with THE NEXT BIG NEW AMAZING TECHNIQUE FOR PULLING WIMMEN WITH AN 100% SUCCESS RATE, only to watch it fall down yet again... and again... and again...

Yes, but I didn't say only introverts had to socialise, only that people with worse social skills would find it beneficial to do so. And, if someone doesn't even have the basic social skills necessary to write out an online dating profile or maintain a friendship circle or two, they'd struggle in a relationship unless…

The last part of my sentence could not have been more fucking obvious to place what you quoted in context, given that it was, you know, the last part of my sentence. If you absolutely must try to sound like one of those arrogant yet proportionately-clueless Internet smartasses with bullshit about "that didn't take…

This! My sister is about a decade older than me, and I remember that when she was dating when she was around the age I am now, the whole landscape seemed a lot different (we were close so I used to hang out with her even when she was with her boyfriends). Guys on average did seem more decent back then. And I act…

I can't decide on who's probably more socially inept, the clients or the PDAs.

HAHAHAHHAAHAHAHAHA

Blah blah blah

You mean his sales page and what other guys in the industry say about him?

Yeah... you'll find people do tend to, just slightly, hype up what they or their contacts/people they've networked with are selling.

It's a perfect industry for doing so, too. There is no way of disproving how many women he's slept with. He…

Trying to coerce people into sex and ignoring "No means No" or other obvious signs (e.g. tensing up, not giving enthusiastic consent) a woman is not consenting is what overcoming last minute resistance means. These guys aren't interested in ensuring that someone is fully happy to have sex, that they aren't just…

Yeah, nothing wrong with self-improvement. But if someone just wanted that there are a million good books out there. Stuff by Anthony Robbins, Paul McKenna, these books are uber popular and sell like hot cakes to the general public. And they work. The PUAs' whole premise is "self improvement and mixed with stupid…

TBF, I did once see a guy's profile that started off like I ONLY DATE WHITE WOMEN I AM NOT A RACIST I JUST AM NATURALLY MORE ATTRACTED TO BLONDE HAIR AND PALE SKIN LIKE 99% OF MEN EVOLUTION HAS MADE ME LIKE THIS SO PLEASE DON'T COMPLAIN MY FAVOURITE TYPES OF WOMEN ARE RUSSIAN FINNISH AND FRENCH... and then there was…

Oh, I see. Surely guys like those aren't even searching for relationships all that much in the first place, though? I got the impression (from a very quick scan) that those people were perfectly happy in their solitude. Whereas a guy like this might be trying to get along socially and maybe have some (mostly male)…

Yehhhhsss I would. Oddly enough being deceptive and manipulative doesn't really fly with decent people, regardless of one's gender. So stop straw-manning and implying that I only care about it because it's men doing it. Although there is a whole shitty PUA industry related to this that chiefly sells to men.

Re: your…

Not only did he write bad advice, he also ruined milk and cookies!

Oh, I got the exaggeration in your last paragraph. But there are enough "man-children" who write the exact same kind of stuff you did (with a touch of "sarcasm" to pretend they're passing it off as a joke if all else fails) on Jezebel articles that it didn't fly over my head. Rather, we weren't even driving down the…

Perhaps if he wants more women to talk to him he should come out from under the bridge?

This. The well-known PUAs (Mystery, Neil Strauss, etc.) are shitty too.

To the guy I was originally talking to - define "know what you're doing," and describe said "techniques"? I can't see how any of what these guys preach cannot involve trying to manipulate women. If it didn't, how would there be "techniques" at…

"You could replace the word 'women' and replace it with 'everything'" - ah, the irony! It's almost as though you wrote your post first and them I wrote the whole thing about objectifying and dehumanising people afterwards. For the record, you can also dehumanise people.

And a dating profile is totally different from…

The vast majority of people aren't the same as the vast majority of people who go on online dating sites, though? TBH, I think the bad reputation is for a reason. As always, the Internet can be a bit of black hole :P
