That’s it, exactly! I thought I was going nuts, so thanks for explaining better than I was.

IIRC he does not even claim in the video that it was his “pick-up artist” skills that allowed him to get away with assaulting Japanese women, or that women in other places would tolerate being grabbed by a stranger on the street and having their heads shoved against his crotch. Instead he said something about how white men can do whatever they want to women in Tokyo.

Ah, then it’s a separate issue. Perhaps there’s a video out there of what he does teach in his seminars as the special hook that’ll let Joe Q. Future Assaulter let him "do what he wants to women on the street. Sheesh.

Thanks to everyone for their help. It’s been a no caffein kind of day.

How big of piece, exactly?

I kid. I kid.

PUA stuff has always puzzled me because I’m not 14 anymore. Getting laid isn’t the most important and only thing I think about. I did think about getting laid, exclusively, for about 4 years but once I actually got laid, then it settled down a bit.

This is the mind set of a horny teenager. We MUST get sex. If we DON"T fuck, we don’t exist as human beings.

I guess some guys never grow out of that.

Because of course and as we all know, it cannot mean that women are visual creatures.

My point is that guys who act like jerks because they think it will get them laid - are not acting. They are actual jerks.

“But I’m trying to get laid!” does not mitigate awful behavior.

What I meant was this… he has this “career.” In it, he apparently uses videos of himself to convince other would-be PUAs to give him money so that they can get women, presumably to sleep with them. So, my question was, how does that work in the context of the actual seminars? Douchebag A shows video of sexual assaults to Douchebags B - Z.

To see the actual techniques you have to subscribe for the seminar. . This video of random sexual assault isn’t an actual specific pickup technique he teaches, I take it, but it illustrates with his more general advice on what kind of attitude alpha men should take toward women.

A fella I know used to complain that all the hot chicks were only drawn to jerks and never gave any lovin’ to nice guys such as himself and may be HE should be more of an jerk blah blah blah…

Found out that his seduction technique was to…well basically become the best gay friend of women out of his league and do everything the ask even though they were \*never \*going to get naked with him…and eventually have them fall in love with him. (in reality, it seems that these women WERE heartless bitches who seems to enjoy toying with him)

After much persuasion, I was able to convince him to simply go up to a _nice_ attractive woman, announce his interest in her and ask her out. And if she declined, to say ‘Good Day’ and move on to the next.

He’s married now. 🙂

I can’t see how this “PUA” (apparently, that should stand for **P** retty **U** n- **A** ttractive) got away with those stunts in Japan. Even when I lived there, about twenty years ago, a woman who was attacked like that would call a cop. They certainly wouldn’t laugh it off. And the men in the room would’ve grabbed the assailant.

I think the presence of a camera and an audience might go some way to explaining that.

> 3a - Don’t approach co-workers or women in stressful situations.  
> 3b - Don’t appear desperate. Work on this in a mirror if you must. Appear happy and confident.  
> 3c - The secret to conversation is asking questions. Ask friendly questions and try to go on a thread of questions on a subject the lady is interested in.  
> 3d - Never use a stupid pickup line. Be straightforward and try to get her to like you, and then ask for her number or email.  
> 3e - If she rejects you, part ways with a smile and a thank you, and move on to the next one. Keep trying, you’ll get better at it.

I think this is all pretty good advice, especially 3E. It’s hard for a lot of men to grasp at first, but the better you are at receiving a ‘no’ from someone you like, the more likely it is you’ll receive a ‘yes’.

The best bit of advice I ever received about dating was “Rely on the law of large numbers”.

I just wish that people would give up the idea that “nice” boys and girls do not want sex and only “bad” boys and girls want/have sex.

You can be a nice guy and want to have sex with women. Nice girls do think about boning men.

Having sex with someone is like one of the nicest things you can do with someone. (besides helping them move)

Of course not. Ideology trumps biology every time. Why just the other day I became left handed and left eye dominant because it was the more equality oriented thing to do!

As to Mr. Jerk face Jerkington PUA dude… meh. If anything he’ll spin this into positive business. “My PUA techniques are so effective I got kicked out of Australia for being TOO good at pulling their women, and you can be too!”

Australia would’ve been better off mocking him, rather than suppressing his boorish free speech. They made him a sorta martyr to the PUA types (that’d be my guess anyways). Probably the MRAs too. /shrug

Yes, the problem with the whole pick up artist movement is the idea that it’s an adversarial situation. They act like men have to defeat a woman like she’s a video game boss. And they pretend they have the konami code that works for all women.

Here’s the reality. Most women like sex just like most men do. If you’re a man who wants to have sex with a woman, just be the kind of man she wants to have sex with. And that’s not going to be the same for all women.

So here’s Little Nemo’s Four Step Program for Picking Up Women:

1. Women aren’t the enemy. And sex isn’t a competition.
2. Women are individuals. Just because one woman likes something doesn’t mean all women will like it.
3. If you want to attract women, be attractive. Stop thinking just about what you want and think about what she wants.
4. Don’t be an asshole. This isn’t just for picking up women. It’s a rule for your entire life.

And frankly, if you’re in a position where you’re going _up up down down left right left right_, you’ve already won anyway.
