WTH does this even mean?
I have a lot of friends, some of them rather unusual, and don’t associate with people who refuse to consider all of my friends fully human. So I’m not going to hang out with any “God hate fags” types, no matter how they dress it up in “love the sinner hate the sin” language. The PUA community, even if they call themselves the ‘seduction’ community now, doesn’t treat women as fully human, and so I wouldn’t want to be around them since (unlike a lot of PUAs) I have a lot of female friends. It’s not just the idea that sex is the only thing that matters about relationships with women, there’s also a whole bunch of evo-psych nonsense, outright misogyny, extremely anti-queer bias, and a host of other awful ideas. If someone read some PUA books and picked the non-awful stuff out of them, or toyed with the idea of becoming one at some point I wouldn’t care, but if they’re involved enough that they’re making apologies for the toxic community (it’s not just ‘a few lemons’) then they clearly don’t have compatible views with me.
For now, I’ll give this guy a chance. As long as he doesn’t view women badly or anything, he’ll be ok with me.
I’m gonna assume that since mine was the previous post before yours, you must have been responding to me with this, um, collection of words here? Let me try to paraphrase then, why be friends with this guy in the first place?
But why? Why give this guy a chance and not every single other guy you come in contact with ever whom you don’t consider convincingly evil?
I wouldn’t be surprised to learn that the “Seduction Community” honed their skills using some variety of the “Girlfriend Experience”.
I would be stunned if any member of the Seduction Community had ever seen a naked woman who wasn’t pixilated.
Sounds like he’s so far into it, he’s lost touch with his ability to feel shame. Does he wear a fedora?
Actually you’re probably right. Paying for sex is only for losers. ![]()
It’s fun to insult them, but the idea that they’re all so repulsive that no women come near them simply isn’t true. A lot of them do manage to find women that their techniques work on, though the problem is that most of the techniques really only work on someone who’s vulnerable and in a bad place for other reasons. Also some of them are mostly-functional guys who have successfully dated normally but get into it hoping to have an endless stream of hot babes on their arm. There were a pair of successful pick-up artists who basically wrecked their business and life when what they intended as a private blog about their conquests got discovered and made public
(Also for context, Asheville NC is basically the place where all of the hippies in the state who want to live in the mountains congregate, so it’s much more progressive than you’d expect from its size and location.)
Yeah, but for every one of those, there are dozens of internet playas who are posting from their mom’s basement about all the hot chicks they bang.
