Literally just be handsome and talk to women all the time. That is PUA advice. PUA is 90% about rolling the figurative dice more, and training yourself to be less awkward with strangers. The other 5% is bullshit that helps you not be anxious (because you have a set series of behavior) and break the ice. The final 5% is pure bullshit.

there are some PUA (for lack of a better term) principles that are actually correct and helpful. like that women are disgusted by neediness, that women are turned on by unpredictability and forcefulness. basically that men and women are very different in a lot of ways when it comes to sexual attraction.

now you still need to be physically attractive to get with an attractive woman, of course. but for men who are attractive "game" can help them not get pussy whipped like faggots.

That isn't a fucking PUA concept. That's basic common sense. Being needy isn't considered good by anyone. It's a negative adjective.

>That women are turned on by unpredictability and forcefulness
Sure, spontaneity can go over well with some women but forcefulness is really not the right word and is way more to do with reading body language than it is to do with asserting yourself. That second part is basically the reason they get a rep as abusive (besides, y'know, half of them being actual rapists and happily spreading STDs).

>Competition for fertile females determines male reproductive success in many species. The priority of access model predicts that male dominance rank determines access to females, but this model has been difficult to test in wild populations, particularly in promiscuous mating systems. Tests of the model have produced variable results, probably because of the differing socioecological circumstances of individual species and populations. We tested the predictions of the priority of access model in the chimpanzees of Gombe National Park, Tanzania. Chimpanzees are an interesting species in which to test the model because of their fission–fusion grouping patterns, promiscuous mating system and alternative male mating strategies. We determined paternity for 34 offspring over a 22-year period and found that the priority of access model was generally predictive of male reproductive success. However, we found that younger males had higher success per male than older males, and low-ranking males sired more offspring than predicted. Low-ranking males sired offspring with younger, less desirable females and by engaging in consortships more often than high-ranking fathers. Although alpha males never sired offspring with related females, inbreeding avoidance of high-ranking male relatives did not completely explain the success of low-ranking males. While our work confirms that male rank typically predicts male chimpanzee reproductive success, other factors are also important; mate choice and alternative male strategies can give low-ranking males access to females more often than would be predicted by the model. Furthermore, the success of younger males suggests that they are more successful in sperm competition.

I remember I got rejected by this chick I had a crush on, I got into PUA after that. It made me awkward and it resulted in me sort of debasing myself by hitting on girls too much. The whole philosophy is just backward. You don't grow as a man by hitting on anything with legs. It's an inherently desperate mindset. Ever notice that these PUA guys usually date girls who are below themselves looks-wise? There was an article in Jezebel a while back where Jeffy, one of the instructors at RSD, was "called out" for raping chicks from OKC. Anyway they posted pics and the girls he was trying to bang were all hambeasts. This is an extreme example but PUAs in general seem to sleep with girls that aren't that hot, even if the PUAs in question are themselves good looking. I think the reason is because PUA is the dating equivalent of dumpster diving. It's hard to explain but with a PUA mindset you make it harder for yourself to get girls, because when you think like that, you *NEED* to be looking for girls. It makes you needy. Your mindset subtly shifts toward "I'll take what I can get." If you look at guys who actually get girls, you'll notice they don't see getting girls as some kind of contest. They just sort of act naturally.

What PUA basically teaches you is misogyny. Learn to appreciate rather than hate women and you will gain a lot more than reading/listening to sad fucks.

thats not a constant thing though
it depends and changes through the history, people dont live in conservative hierarchical societies like most animals

quote by hoolaback:

“It's a fact...that in societies like ours sex truly represents a second system of differentiation, completely independent of money; and as a system of differentiation it functions just as mercilessly. The effects of these two systems are, furthermore, strictly equivalent. Just like unrestrained economic liberalism, and for similar reasons, sexual liberalism produces phenomena of absolute pauperization . Some men make love every day; others five or six times in their life, or never. Some make love with dozens of women; others with none. It's what's known as 'the law of the market'...Economic liberalism is an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society. Sexual liberalism is likewise an extension of the domain of the struggle, its extension to all ages and all classes of society.”

First off, these guys are spooked all to hell and back. Letting women have this much power over them, for shame.

Second, if you want a chick, just treat her like you would a guy. This is what I do and it works surprisingly well, at least in the beginning stages. She'll become interested in you simply because you're the only straight guy not lapping her shit up, and then she'll start coming to you. This is where you sprinkle a bit of flirting in. Just a joke here and there, nothing concrete, make her do the fucking work. Let her catch you staring at her tits or something, then look away casually. Be casual.

When you first start doing this, make it scarce, flirt once and then walk away and do other shit. This is just to let her know that you're a sexual being who could be dtf in the future, not gay or a withdrawn geek or anything. As she makes it more clear that she's into you, you ramp things up as well, but always be less willing than she is, unless there comes a point where the deal is about to be sealed, then it's normal for any guy to want to go for it.

Just remember, don't be a slave to her. She is your property, use her as you see fit, but don't let her have power over you and your emotions. It takes practice obviously but you'll get it.

And I'm average looking with shit teeth, a small penis, no college, and a shit job so don't be crying out muh normie or I'm gonna come over there and get you.

Don't see women as objects or trophies. Don't go out simply to attain them. If you want to find a meaningful connection with someone its a matter of honesty, humour and interest.

If you go out solely with "SEX" as your main intention you're going to suffer, because that's not how it works. Sex will happen if you put in an honest effort, not just constantly bombarding them with faux interest.

PUA comes down to
>start hitting on girls relentlessly and you realize that nothing actually bad comes from it - and of course some of the chicks will actually also spread their legs because girls like sex too
That works, you can be cooler than you were before and so I think it's a good thing PUA exists.
Downside:
1. the PUA guys try to sell something which can be said on 50 pages or less, the amount of information is finite and so they get obnoxious, starting to (re-)making motivational videos containing only evident truths.
2. I agree with (>>7045618). If you "get into it", then you lose your standards and just want to say before yourself that you banged 20 chicks or more like some guys on youtube.

I have a notebook (for many things, also one for conversational skills) and go a little "into it". I like this kid, he is sincere

It's more involved:
I agree 100% with your tactic of being casual first and then going towards her more sexually.
HOWEVER this only works if she's in your friend circle/your coworker or in any case if you can talk an hour minutes with her casually and know you'll get to interact with her.
PUA is, in large parts, about approaching and picking up on the streets and in bars and not to make some lovely girl you know into your gf. If you see a pretty girl on the street and do the PUA thing, you can't approach her and treat her like a friend, then ask for her number. Or at least that will not be effective than compared to showing her she's hot and that's why you're into her.

I think actually going out with the purpose of approaching is a waste of time, but trying to do it a few times and seeing that you don't get away with scars from it is a good lesson for 4chan browsing guys.
I went to Starbucks reading my Stirner copy, saw a qt and went to her -on purpose-, started talking to her with a questiong that wasn't one, "is this seat (on the other side of the table) free" and when she was receptive I started to talk about the books I had with me. I kept talking to her for 30 minutes with the intent of getting laid in the end and I'm banging her for 7 months now.

I "don't do this often", but knowing you can is not obvious. Start to talking with girls who are apparently wait for someone on the street for several minutes and intentionally get into a nice conversation (as I did yesterday, which after I ask for a date ended in "*smiley* my boyfriend wouldn't like that") can be done casual and isn't scary or insulting to anyone.

PUA makes no sense. It makes sense for good looking men who like to seduce women to pass around tips among one and other. It doesn't make sense for men to train men who hate talking to / seducing women to do it in order to rescue their pride. Not only are there far better ways of learning to not hate yourself, but seducing women doesn't really help you. It's not like they are teaching men how to attract a wife and start a family and do something that they would actually be proud of.

PUAs are just capitalizing on the generation brought up on garbage films like American Pie where masculinity is about seduction rather than about responsibility, respect, etc. Being a seducer of women was actually considered fairly effeminate not too long ago.

The internet makes things worse in showing what you could have and the idea that other men get more than you.

I think the argument for the guy that doesn't actually plan on banging around still is that if you cross paths with a "girl of your dream" kind of chick, you'll not be afraid and too autistic to make a move.

>he should take that nerdy shit off and talk to he
She would have to take her headphones off.
Its kind of fucking annoying when people make you take your headphones off just because they wanted to small talk about nothing.

I'm pretty sure he would feel the same.

Exactly. If anything, there needs to be a course for re-programming the modern woman.

All these people are spooked, but the dude who runs the Black Dragon blog is slightly less spooked than the rest.

He advocates polyamory or whatever it is where you constantly are fucking other people, he doesn't give a shit if a woman sleeps around because he's also sleeping around, and if she starts shit he immediately shuts her down and throws her in the trash, to be replaced with one of many other bitches.

Of course, he also makes room for a main chick, one that he falls in love with and that's in love with him, but he makes it clear that the relationship will always be open. The woman knows she is disposable, and hopefully the man never puts a woman above himself.

He seems genuinely happy with this arrangement, a lot happier than robots whining about cuckshit and women every waking hour of their lives.
