Okay, I’m a Howard Stern fan, I admit it.  And ever since he’s moved to an uncensored format on Sirius Satellite Radio, his show has only gotten better.  Today on his show, Howard interviewed two chicks about their views on sex that I found very interesting.  Here’s a clip from the show…

Now, granted, these girls were porno chicks (who are obviously different from regular women in some way), but it’s just an extreme example of something the big guns in the community have been saying for years…

Women Love Sex.

They just love it.  Men love it too, but for some reason, guys tend to think that women are a little bit more reserved than men when it comes to their desires.

Not true.

Ant the big factor in this clip, which I found very interesting, is that when it comes to the ACT of sex, the man is almost incidental.  All women care about is the cock, or the experience, or the sensation.  Now, that doesn’t mean that emotions don’t play a part, but in the physical realm, where pleasure plays a big role, it’s all about the kind of stimulation women receives.

Any guy out there who’s ever made a woman cum knows that after she orgasms, there’s some kind of switch that’s flipped in her head where who you are, what you look like, and what you do doesn’t matter.  She just kind of lets you do anything you want as long as it continues to feel good to her.

There are guys who continue to obsess about their looks, their age, their bank account size, and all that other stuff.  But all you have to do is listen to some women, like the ones in the clips above, talk about sex for a while to realize that the man doesn’t play as big of a role as we may think.  What I mean by that is:  Looks, money, age, weight, etc. don’t matter.  All that matters is whether or not you know how to please her in the sack!

A lot of the very best PUAs know how to subcommunicate their ability to make a woman orgasm and experience pleasure in the bedroom.  That’s all that flirting is, really.  It’s just a guy volunteering the fact that he wants to sexually pleasure a woman in a very playful way.  And women who pick up on that and are game are willing to give it a go with him.

Now, admittedly, I’m not a very good looking guy.  But when I’m in with a girl and start talking about sex, you can really see a change in their eyes where you just KNOW they’re getting horny.  It’s all about introducing that sexual energy into the interaction, and not being afraid to pursue it.

Anyway, I know this is a hot topic, so I want to open up this thread to "healthy" discussion about this subject.

Hot Guys, Risky Sex?

Ugly guys of the world, rejoyce!  It seems there’s now scientific evidence that you’ll outlive your better-looking male counterparts.

In a new article, there’s a study done that indicates that men who have a good looks and a good self-image tend to indulge in riskier sexual behavior.

NEW YORK (Reuters Health) – Young men who feel good about their looks are more likely than their peers with a less positive body image to engage in risky sexual behavior, a new study of college students shows.

The men who were most satisfied with their appearance, and the most appearance-oriented — meaning they were highly invested in their looks and considered appearance to be important — were also the most likely to have sex without condoms and to have sex with multiple partners, Dr. Eva S. Lefkowitz of Pennsylvania State University in University Park and colleagues report.

"There’s kind of a general belief that a positive view of your body is a good thing," Lefkowitz said in an interview with Reuters Health. "We’re not saying that’s not true, but we do think in the case of young men there could be potential negative ramifications of a positive view of one’s body."

Among young women, in contrast, those with a more positive body image were less likely to engage in risky sexual behavior, Lefkowitz and her team found.

The researchers interviewed 434 students, ranging in age from 17 to 19, during their first year of college. Fifty-nine percent reported being sexually active. Just over two-thirds of sexually active students said they didn’t use condoms every time they had sex, while a little over half said they used alcohol while having sex at least some of the time.

While sexually active students reported less dissatisfaction with their looks and a more positive body image on average, "it’s important to point out that we don’t know which comes first," Lefkowitz said. People who feel better about their looks may be more likely to have sex, or being sexually active may confer a better body image, she explained.

As the researchers hypothesized, men with better body images had more lifetime sex partners and were less likely to use condoms during sex, while women who felt more positively about their looks had fewer partners and used condoms more frequently.

The findings show, Lefkowitz and her team conclude, that high self-esteem in terms of appearance may not be protective for young men, but instead may put them in danger of taking risks sexually.

Parents sending sons off to college may want to consider "really emphasizing not just go forth and feel good about yourself, but also within those messages emphasizing the importance of protecting yourself and respect for women," Lefkowitz advised.

In short:  Good looking guys have lots of sex, therefore have a high risk of disease.

Damn, I coulda told them that.  =)

Build Attraction Secrets

March 9, 2006 by  
Filed under Rants & Reviews

There’s a book that’s been out for a while now called "Build Attraction Secrets:  The Foundations For Attraction," and it was written by my buddy The One (aka Cameron Teone).

I only recently got a copy of the book, and haven’t really had a chance to read it all the way through yet (I’ll be sure to post a full review on the site when I get a chance), but it did get me to thinking about something…

Cameron’s book — which I’ll admit, is pretty darn good — centers a great deal on "inner game" and laying the groundwork for self-improvement that will increase your success with women.

And I can’t stress enough how important YOU are in the PUA equation.

When it comes down to it, YOU are the one thing that is going to attract a woman.  You can do as many patterns, routines, DHVs, or whatevers you want.  But at some point, the bag of tricks run dry and all you have to work with is yourself.

What do you do then?

There are so many factors to improving your own mentality and beliefs when it comes to success with women.  I had a fantastic evening with a woman just last night, and believe me, this girl was very attractive.  Me, I’m an overweight dude, I don’t think I’m all that good looking, and my hair is getting a little thin on top (that’s for all you flamers out there.  I just know how much you love to call me names that somehow rhyme with my physical flaws! =), and there’s still a part of me that feels I don’t deserve to be with a woman as attractive as she was.

So what did I do?  I actually brought it up!  We started talking about attraction and various other things, and she told me some very interesting things that only reinforce what I know to be true, but still have a hard time accepting.

She told me that so many guys come up to her pretending to be rich to try and get her to date them, and how lame she thinks that is.  She told me that lots of her former boyfriends were poor, and how she tends to date "average guys" because she finds the good looking ones are all boring and have no personality.

And the funny thing is:  Almost all girls think this way!

Just because you’re not a great looking guy doesn’t mean you can’t be with an attractive girl.  And one of the things I really love about Cameron’s book is that he nails this concept on the head.

Building real attraction comes down to:

  • Beliefs
  • Self-Esteem
  • Courage to try new things
  • The ability to learn from failure
  • A willingness to let the good in you shine through

Once upon a time, Mystery pioneered something which I’ve found to be incredibly useful, and which tends to go very un-discussed in this community, and that is the concept of having a CHARACTER.

Characters are attractive to people.  All the best books, movies, and TV shows are based around characters people can fall in love with.  Just watch an episode of American Idol one night, and you’ll find yourself rooting for the people with the most character to them.

Mystery’s concept was to invent a character you could become.  And while I think there’s value to that, I feel that everyone is already a character, and they just need to display it.

I’m not a special guy, but there are things about my personality that shine through, and I’ve learned to display that.

If you have some struggles with your inner game, and you really want to get yourself together, try checking out Cameron’s book.  I’ve actually learned a lot from it, and I think it’s one of the better books out there on pure inner game material.  You can check it out by clicking here.

Book Review: The Game, by Neil Strauss

September 7, 2005 by  
Filed under Rants & Reviews

Stylebook_1Okay, by now I’m sure you’re all curious about the book THE GAME, written by Neil Strauss (aka Style, the most powerful of the Jedi).

I received my advanced copy of the book over Labor Day weekend (since I’m in the book briefly, I was sent one early).  The first thing you notice about the book is that it’s not your typical hardback book as you’d expect.  The cover is actually thin, flexible, and black, the pages are all edged in gold, and there’s even a thin red cloth bookmark located in the spine.  In short, the book looks like the typical Gideon Bible you’d find in a hotel room.

And I must say, it’s quite appropriate.

Move over Lay Guide, so long eBooks, THE GAME is the new bible of the seduction community!

A few chapters into this book, I realized that this wasn’t going to be the “tell-all expose” we all were anticipating.  This is a book written by arguably one of the best seducers to ever come out of the community, and in it, he shares everything.

I mean EVERYTHING.

All his teachings, all his tactics, all his theories, all his strategies are all laid bare.

Through the course of the book, we start off by seeing Style go from your Average Frustrated Chump to a full blown Ladies Man, and as he documents his progress, it’s as if you’re right there learning along with him.  Because of this, I would go so far as to say that is book is a MUST OWN for anyone out there looking to improve with women.

This isn’t just a story.  This is a “how-to guide.”  A manual on how to pick up women from the best of the best.  Forget Cassanova, forget Don Juan, this is stuff that works now, in this day and age, and is applicable to modern women.  Not only that, but it’s all based on the tried and tested techniques of the seduction community.

Style pretty much lays out every form and method of teaching there is.  He gives you the full Mystery Method, he shows you Speed Seduction, he explains the Juggler Method, Double Your Dating, and David X style.  Pretty much every major school of thought is laid bare in here, which makes it a great all-encompassing reference manual for guys who want to know what teachings are available out there.

In the book, Style also shares posts from the private Mystery’s Lounge message board where some of the greats post their best stuff.  This is a good way for the average guy who isn’t privileged enough to be part of this private message board to see some of the advanced teachings and spastic ramblings that are shared there.

Then, Style shows you how he incorporates the best teachings from all his sources and created a system of pick-up that works for him.

This is, bar-none, one of the most complete guides on the subject of seduction I have ever seen.  In fact, I’d rate it up there along side Robert Greene’s classic “The Art Of Seduction.”

But the real treat of THE GAME isn’t just it’s wealth of pick-up knowledge.  No sir.  It’s the inside look you get at the personalities behind these teachings.

Casting The Movie: The Game

August 31, 2005 by  
Filed under Rants & Reviews

With the notion that Style’s upcoming tell-all book about the seduction community "The Game" as been optioned by Sony to be made into a movie, I thought it’d be fun to do throw out some casting ideas about what actors should portray certain people in the community.  So here is my dream list when it comes to the ultimate casting of the film.

Director:  Judd Apatow — The 40 Year Old Virgin
I gotta admit, I loved The 40 Year Old Virgin.  I think writer/director Judd Apatow really understands how guys think when it comes to women, and he could tell the story of The Game with a lot of honesty and heart.  Admittedly, this probably won’t happen, as the producers will undoubtedly get a woman to direct the feature as a way to deflect the criticism from all the fem-nazis about the movie being misogynistic.  But one can dream…

Cillianmur_grani_5601044_400_2 Style:  Cillian Murphey — Batman Begins, 28 Days Later
After seeing this guy in Batman Begins, I’m convinced he’s a really engaging actor who audiences can really love.  He really displayed a sense of intelligence and manipulation in that movie, while in others he can certainly show he has heart and feelings.  That’s why I think he’d be the perfect choice to play Style in the movie version.  He’s talented enough to make a character the audience could really like and enjoy.  Sure, he doesn’t look a thing like Style, but if you shave that guy’s head and have him say "Hey Man" at the beginning of every sentence, he’ll embody the character better than anyone else out there, guaranteed.

Johnnydepp1_1 Mystery:  Johnny Depp — Pirates Of The Caribbean, lots of other stuff.
I might be going out on a limb here since any movie made based on The Game probably couldn’t afford Johnny Depp, but he has been known to "buck the system" before and take smaller roles in order to do quirky characters, and let’s face it, you don’t get quirkier than Mystery!  I think JD would take the time to research the character and do it right.  I can totally see him walking around in platform boots, fuzzy top hat, long black leather trenchcoat, goth make-up, and a wicked Canadian accent all the while talking about "Female Grouses" and "Backwards Merging."  In my mind, there is no better choice.

Sethgreen_1 Tyler Durden:  Seth Green — Without a Paddle, The Italian Job
I’ve heard Tyler refer to himself many times as a Seth Green look alike, and he’s right!  Seth Green would totally be able to nail the character of Tyler Durden.  I mean, he’s short, like Tyler.  He’s got tall hair, like Tyler.  He can act really spastic, like Tyler.  He’s got a high-pitched squeaky voice, like Tyler.  In fact, he’s like Tyler in all respects, except in penis size, which Tyler claims we weighs in at 2 1/2 inches, so in that category Seth Green might have him beat.  But regardless of that, he’s the perfect choice!  You put this guy in a sk8ter boi jacket and some NuRock boots, and have him walk around asking everyone if they think David Bowie is hot, you’ve got the best Tyler impersonator this side of the globe.

Johncho_grant_2953050_400_1 Papa:  John Cho — Harold And Kumar Go To White Castle, American Pie
Who better to play a little asian guy than… a little asian guy!  John Cho is pretty much the only young asian actor I can think of who could nail the character of Papa.  I could see him walking around with Seth Green, trying to pick up women in his fast-talking lower-lip-biting style.  Of course, you have to have a Paris Hilton cameo just so you can see John approach her and strike out.  There also has to be a scene in the movie where John goes to his room and has ten "interns" sleeping on the floor doing all the slave labor for RSD.

Natalieportman_1 Lisa:  Natalie Portman — Star Wars Prequels, ’nuff said.
Having met and hung out with Style’s girlfriend Lisa, I can tell she’d be a tough one to cast.  You need a real leading lady with a lot of wit, a good sense of humor, who’s also very pretty, all the while displaying that "I don’t give a fuck" rocker-chick attitude.  So after much thought, the only actress I could come up with is Natalie Portman.  I think she’s talented enough to display all those traits.  Plus, you factor the "She’s Darth Vader’s Girlfriend" coolness factor into the equation, you’ve got every wanna-be pick up artist loser’s fantasy rolled up into a nice, neat package for them to whack off to!  You can’t miss!  Though she probably would be too expensive to get for this movie, she has been known to do low budget fare before like she did in the film Garden State.

Owenwilson_1 Juggler:  Owen Wilson — Wedding Crashers, Shanghai Noon
I can’t think of an actor who is better suited to the low-key, laid back style of Juggler than Owen Wilson.  He comes across as someone who’s really sweet and thoughtful, the kind of guy who takes life as it comes to him, so who better to play Juggler?  Not only that, but Owen Wilson would do a great job of showing the other side of the PUA spectrum, a great contrast to Johnny Depp’s Mystery.

Piercebrosnan_1 David DeAngelo:  Pierce Brosnan — James Bond, 007
What better guy to embody Cocky/Funny than James Bond himself?  I could totally see Pierce Brosnan up on stage in some conference room, drawing on a flip chart with his black marker, and asking for "courtesy laughter" after every joke he says.  Throw a pair of glasses on the guy, he’ll even look like David DeAngelo!  But the best part of this is seeing his delivery of classic David D lines on women.  That alone would be worth the price of admission.

Napoleon_1 Some Random AFC:  Jon Heder — Napoleon Dynamite
Ever since I saw Napoleon Dynamite, I’ve been extremely impressed with Jon Heder.  I think he’s incredibly entertaining to watch, and personally, I can’t think of an actor better suited to play a typical AFC.  Can you imagine his character going to a workshop to learn how to pick up women?  He’d be the perfect guy!  We can see him going through his peacocking stage and all that fun stuff.  This would be the guy the audience gets to experience the teachings of all the pick-up gurus through.  He’ll be that guy who goes to every seminar and workshop.  Hopefully, by the end of the movie he’ll either have a girlfriend, or be selling his own ebook on some pick-up method he made up himself.

Willfarrel MINE’99:  Will Farrell — Anchorman, Old School
I think that there would be no one in the world who could better portray MINE’99 than the genius that is Will Farrell.  In my opinion, he could absolutely nail the attitude of an aging loser who makes his living off of trying to teach guys how to hypnotize women.  Can you imagine how funny it would be to see him running hypnotic patterns on women?  Or better yet, him trying to teach other guys how to run hypnotic patterns?  It would simply be too funny for words!  Not only that, but to watch Will Farrell flip out as MINE’99 does whenever someone calls him a fraud would be priceless.  I’m sure the add libs alone would make this movie one worth watching!  Of course, we have to have a scene where we see Will Farrel doing Yoga.

Therock Thundercat:  The Rock — The Rundown, Walking Tall
Since I’ve always pictured myself as a half-black, half-Samoan pro wrestler-turned actor, I can’t think of anyone more appropriate to play me than The Rock.  Sure, I’m not really IN the book, but should I be deemed worthy to be in the movie, there should be a scene where the Rock sits down at his computer and writes up something true and ultimately disparaging about MINE’99 on his blog, so we can see the appropriate follow-up scene of Will Farrell melting down and calling The Rock nasty names and making fun of his dad.  Then at the end of the movie, the Rock can give Will Farrell the People’s Elbow during the credits. (hey, this is my dream list, I can cast who I want!!!)

Okay, so that’s my list.  What’s yours?  Share it in the comments.

I recently read in a post about a Fidentia Review I published where I saw some guys asking about what workshops are actually worth it.  In fact, I get this question a lot!  So decided to make an open thread about the topic.  All you guys out there who’ve taken a workshop, post about who you think was the best and who you think was the worst and why you feel that way.

Hopefully this will be able to become a reference for people out there actually interested in taking a workshop and would like to know as much about it as possible before committing thousands of dollars to it.

And keep the hating to a minimum.  Constructive criticism only, please.  =)

Effective Honesty

August 24, 2005 by  
Filed under Rants & Reviews

BG has a post up on his blog about about something he calls "effective honesty."

BG writes:
This is something I discussed a while ago over the phone with a PUA named Yoshi. So a part of the credit goes to him as well.

We
were discussing about a philosophy, about a concept; to be completely
honest 100% of the time. This could be REALLY alpha. You really tell
people how you feel about them and about things without hiding
anything. Of course, at the work place this might not be that effective
(being alpha at the work place rarely is) and while seducing it might
not be good either. I mean, imagine this:

"Hey, I think you’re hot and I want to have sex with you."

Or if a girl asks: "do you like me?"
Replying "Yeah, kind of, but I’m just trying to fuck you" is not of much use.

That’s
why we called it EFFECTIVE honesty. Effective honesty means NOT telling
someone your entire life story when they ask "what’s up". Effective
honesty means NOT being overly blunt.

Of course, hiding your
intentions and having a hidden agenda is not good. Why would you have a
hidden agenda if you are self-secure and are convinced that you are
going to achieve your goals anyway? In some cases you simply can’t be a
100% honest. Make it 99%. Give them most of the truth, but not
everything.

I do think that honesty is always the best policy.  A favorite tactic of David X’s was "relentless honesty."  He’d walk around and tell women how much he liked their breasts because… well, he really did like their breasts!

I think that when guys try to sneak around and hide their intentions from a girl they like, it can really backfire on them.  Either they come off as just plain "not interested" or they appear like they’re trying to manipulate the girl.  I do think that a somewhat direct approach of being honest about your intentions can really go a long way to increasing the effectiveness of your pick-up, and what BG talks about with "effective honesty" is a good way to go about it.

Routine Dependancy

August 22, 2005 by  
Filed under Rants & Reviews

Tyler Durden has a new post up about reliance on routines…

Tyler Durden Posts:
Routines, while potent and effective, can also become like a car or a house or a bank account. And moreso, they can become a part of your identity in a way that is constricting.

When we first come to the game, we learn that chumps will talk to girls with boring, resume-like conversation, that is essentially trying too hard to build rapport and conveying all the wrong things. We learn to have conversations that stand out and make us more interesting than the next man. We learn to make ourselves stand out from the chumps by virtue of our fascinating topics of conversation.

With time, we also become psychologically dependent on our routines, because we know that if a girl is talking to us, and we have intrigued her and pushed her away and made her chase us, that she is in our frame and that we can feel completely comfortable. She sees us as that guy who conveyed a ton of personality, so therefore she sees us in a way that we want to be seen and that guarantees acceptance.

And so when we see a girl later in the week, we think "I need to put her in state. What routines have I run? Oh shit!" Or if we meet a girl for the first time and we do not actively attract her, we feel a bit anxious as though there is something that we need to be doing.

Now let’s pause for a second…

As guys in the game, the things that attract women are the sub-communication of higher value. This is subcommunicated especially in our voice and eye contact, as well as in the fluidity and space usage in our body language to an extent. When your voice resonates and pumps, and your eye dialations are completely unreactive, and your body is fluid, you will have attraction. So when you speak to a woman, even when she is not initially attractive, if you are reactionless to it and you maintain your higher value sub-communications, she will eventually become reactive herself and fall into your frame.

And so back on track…

When we run a set gameplan, these sub-communications flow from us naturally because we are playing the role of the guy who attracts women. We have shed our chump identity, and we have taken on an identity of a player and a champ. We have conveyed our personality in a way that is cool and subtle and fun. One a certain level, we are doing far better than the guy who needed to say "I have a boat and a rolex" in order to feel like the girls see him in the way that he wants to be seen.

But at the same time, we have become dependent on personality conveyance being tacked onto the front of an interaction in order to feel comfortable. If we talk to a girl without the structured personality conveyance on the front end, we don’t feel comfortable. We feel naked and exposed. We feel dependent on the reaction of the woman to maintain the state boost that we gain from being a pimp and a player. And most importantly, WE IDENTIFY TYPICAL CHUMP TALK AS BEING CHUMPISH AND WE FEEL THAT WE HAVE TAKEN ON THE IDENTITY OF A CHUMP WHEN WE DO NOT ACTIVELY GAME. It is the same as when I first entered a relationship, and identified myself as a chump and my state crashed from there.

I don’t know about you guys, but I feel I need to have a PhD in psychobabble whenever I read TD’s posts nowadays.  In fact, I had to read this one a couple times to try to understand it properly.  I’m not sure I succeeded, but I think this is the gist of what he’s saying…

"Be a cool guy around women, and it doesn’t matter what you say."

All this mumbo-jumbo about "sub-communication" and "psychologically dependent" makes my eyes go cross.

It’s funny, because I was talking to a friend of mine who used to be, at least in my opinion, one of the best instructors in the community, and I actually talked to him about some of his old routines.  At some point, you get good enough and experienced enough with women to know that success in love has little to do with what you say and a lot to do with who you are (mostly because who you are dictates what you say and do).  This guy I was talking to and myself have gotten to a point where we don’t feel the need to use routines on women and don’t find it necessary to spin a bunch of pre-memorized material on targets, etc.  We just kind of flow and take opportunities as they present themselves.

But the funny thing is, at one time, both of us were all about the pre-scripted routines and material!  In a way, learning 103 memorized routines, or whatever, helped us to figure out that you don’t necessarily need to do that to get women.  It’s just an excuse to talk to them about something.

Personally, I believe that most guys have to go through a process of discovery where they learn pre-scripted stuff and get comfortable talking and interacting with women.  Kind-of like training wheels on a bike.  You’re learning how to be social!  Eventually, you reach a point where the training wheels aren’t necessary and you can go it alone.  You may fall down from time to time and hurt yourself, but that doesn’t mean you should put the training wheels back on, does it?

I do think there is a tendency for some to rely too much on routines.  But I personally see them as necessary, at least initially, for guys who need help learning how to be social and meet women in particular.

Jessica Simpson in The Dukes Of Hazzard

August 5, 2005 by  
Filed under Rants & Reviews

I used to watch The Dukes Of Hazzard when I was a kid (a really, really little kid!).  I loved car chases then, and I love them even more now.  I can remember I even used to have one of those electric Dukes Of Hazzard race tracks (you know, the kind where you put a little car on a track, plug it in, push a button, and watch the car run the track until it falls off?), so I’ve been a fan for a while.  So when I saw they were making a movie of it, I was really excited!  But the first question that sprung to my mind was "Who are they gonna get to play Daisy Duke?"

Thedukes_portrait_1

Well, they cast Jessica Simpson.  I never watched any of the Newlyweds shows on MTV, and I was never a big fan of her music, so I didn’t know much about her other than the fact that she’s H-O-T!  But after seeing the trailer for this movie, I was really excited, because it not only seems like she can act, it also seems like she perfectly captured the pure sexuality of the character.

Jessica_simpson11

I’m looking forward to seeing The Dukes Of Hazard today, it looks like it’ll be a really fun movie!  It’s directed by one of the guys who made the movie Super Troopers (which is a funny movie too, if you haven’t seen it yet), not to mention some episodes of Arrested Development (one of the funniest shows ever to grace television, in my opinion), so it should be good.

I don’t know about you guys, but I get literally HUNDREDS of SPAM emails every day, and I must admit, despite the annoyingness (is that even a word?) of the junk email I get, some of the titles I see in my SPAM folder can get pretty entertaining.

I think my favorite spam headline so far was this email I got recently with the title "Stupid Girls Itching."  I laughed when I saw it and just HAD to open it up.  Of course, it was a pitch for some bizzar german sex site written in very poor english, but the title was just gold in the humor department, I thought.

Since then, I’ve gotten a few more SPAM headline favorites.  Most recently, there was "Watch dumb european women work hard for my proposal" and then the ever charming "She feels son into her."  *shudder*  (I wonder who they think this stuff appeals to?)

Anyway, I guess the point of this post is I’m wondering if you guys have any great/funny SPAM headlines you’ve come across?  Post them in this thread, they should be worth a laugh or two.  =)
