I think one of the biggest mistakes guys against a 3 Strikes rule make is assuming that it means a guy would be so preoccupied with sex that you couldn't wait for 4-6 dates, and in some cases months. They assume that a 3 Strikes rule (or any rule dependent upon sexual reciprocation) makes them...

The most effective social conventions are ones in which the subject willingly sublimates his own interests, discourages questioning it, and predisposes that person to encourage the convention with others. This is the essence of the Matrix; anything can become normal. This pretty much sums up...

Question: Why haven't you married this girl? Sounds like an ideal situation.

Sucker. The single most disastrous AFC move a man can make is to OVERTLY describe past sexual experiences and/or give a number (accurate or not) to how many women he's been with prior to the one he's with. This simple act ALWAYS comes off as pretensiousness and is often the catalyst for an...

Oh, I'd agree with you on the marriage counseling. It's usually last stop before toll. The "life coaches" need to get their grab at the cash before the couple is of to the attorneys and then divorce. And yes, a great deal of it is based on touchy-feel self-reporting cognitive therapy with all...

I'd argue that 95% aren't even aware that they're repeating / reinforcing a social convention at all because the convention is so embedded into social consciousness it's taken for granted. The most effective social conventions are ones in which the subject willingly sublimates his own interests...

For the record, Mods can't ban anyone. Only Alan the admin can.

I love how this thread spirals from the word "counsellor" into being synonymous with "psychologists, feminists and left-wing lawyers",..heheh. What kind of counseling is SLAOG referring to? High School / College counsellors? Marriage counsellors? Camp counsellors? Peer counsellors...

I'm going to invoke POOK here, "perfect is boring". I think what's being lost here is the understanding that relationships evolve. What started out as thrilling for a woman becomes her liability later. It's the classic 'have her cake and eat it too' scenario that we go into often here. In her...

Not buying it. This is, is far too similar to this, which is very similar to this, http://www.sosuave.net/forum/showthread.php?t=97066 You'll pardon my skepticism, but either you're seeing the exact same woman or her evil twin.

I double majored in Fine Art and Behavioral Psychology. Guess which degree is paying the bills now?

The primary reason I don't have a "How to be a DJ" DVD, do seminars, run a podcast, have a private life coaching business or engage in any number of other ventures I could turn a buck from in 'helping' guys is because it limits me from giving a guy a swift kick in his ass when he needs it most...

STEVENR, what you're describing is the social reinforcement of the "not like other guys" mentality, whether an AFC subscribes to it makes it a social convention for him.

Geee, that kinda sounds like this: or this,... Oh wait a minute, that was back in September of 2007,...I need to correct my last post, this isn't coming up on 2 years now, it'll be 2 years in June. Ahh, now that IS a classic! And who could forget this one? But wait, there's more, ah...

Unplugging chumps from the Matrix is dirty work. I like to think of it as triagé - save the ones you can, read last rites to the dying. Sometimes thats a tough call especially when their emotional state is influenced by defeatist, non-constructive and feminized ideals and you see them for what...

Alright PIPE, I'm going to let you in on a secret to unlocking one of the deepest cosmic mysteries that plagues men - women's menstrual cycle. After almost 13 years of marriage I've learned that the best way to deal with mood swings and PMS is to expect it. That might sound stupid-simple...
