No, lying is perfectly kosher. “Of course, I like your friend Phyllis. No those pants don’t make your ass look big.”
PUA techniques seem to involve attacking girls’ self-esteem so they are more vulnerable.

Again you missed the part where I said I didn’t care if they did or did not get it. Your inability to recognize that not everyone acts like you is pretty pathetic. Perhaps you should go to a thread where your input is actually useful, like a thread about level desi ohh wait no, that wouldn’t be useful either.

Pogo, figure it out. I’m trolling you. If you weren’t such an easy mark I might even continue but as it stands it just feels dirty and cheap. I have zero investment in this sub-topic. None. So we’re done, it’s cool, you can get back to smoking up while jerking off to motorcycle pictures or whatever it is you do with your free time.
Ta!

Well, duh. It’s all fun and games until someone says “alright we’re done.”

You could have said this earlier. I would put my dick in each one of those tailpipes.

While I appreciate it, and while neither of us have any doubt that it will be true someday sooner rather than later, we’re talking things one financial burden at a time. The first is an international move, and the next will be a wedding, but there’s no date, and so please don’t take that as an official announcement of my engagement. Thanks though!

MTV did some reality shows about these guys (I think it was MTV), and this book was a big seller. It’s pretty funny, and sad and pathetic.
Who the fuck are you talking about? Can I play threadcop too? Can we get a blanket ban on all the sex-negative losers out there who think that casual sex is inherently less valid than relationship sex? They are, after all, engaged in misogynistic slut-shaming.
Can I just intrude on the PUA thing to ask a question of the straight ladies here?
Are guys who wear eyeliner hot? I don’t get it. The fuzzy hat is off-putting as well, but maybe I’m not the best judge of that kinda thing.

Capt. Jack Sparrow wears eye liner.
The Game is a great yarn, as someone on this board put it in the last PUA thread. I read it in the store because I didn’t want to give Neil Strauss my money, but I rate it very highly as a guilty pleasure and I recommend it to anyone. It caters equally to PUA advocates and haters: pro-PUAs see their scene canonized, and anti-PUAs can revel in the self-destructive spiral and obvious self-deception that the lifestyle engenders in its practitioners. NOTE: This post should not be construed as an endorsement of PUA techniques or personalities.

I didn’t realize frat boys were a “secret society.”

There’s a difference between casual sex and manipulative dickholery. Perhaps you can pull your head out of your ass and learn to see it, because nobody here actually is suggesting a problem with sex or promiscuity. We’re just not fond of people being assholes and generally using people. And occasionally we’ll point out when someone does something kinda creepy. Or very creepy, in Guapo’s usual case.
Also, “slut-shaming” is a misogynistic term, and I’m offended by your use of it. We prefer “shaming of women with loose sexual boundaries.”
Well, a lot of us probably just plain prefer “the company of women with loose sexual boundaries.”
Jerri, for reference I do know a few women who dig the look, but for them it’s generally only on certain guys named Johnny Depp or who’re currently performing on stage.
This is “peacocking.” It’s supposed to be a little jarring, because it is intended to disrupt your frame of reference for “average guy in the club” and thus make you open to suggestion (in addition to the obvious goal of just getting your attention in the first place). So saith Mystery.
Don’t forget the boobies.
Guys who wear eyeliner are just trying to look like me! flutters long eyelashes at Jerri

At the same time, Adam? Or near enough you can regale us with tales of him being a douchebag and/or supernerd via knowing people who went at the tame time?
Also, I think “peacocking” is supposed to say “look at me! I’m bold and confident, as shown by my unusual wardrobe choices!” as well. Not that it’s any less silly.
Bigger question-How does that guy manage to get a date at this point? Are there still women unaware of what he’s up to, or do they know and actually find him attractive? Either of those seems unlikely.

I’m dumb. Who’s PhoenixRising?
So basically there’s not a single thing about that dude that’s not contrived.

You got it. That’s the end-game of the PUA. Be like…well, that.
