I am sorry to be going counter to the sentiment here, but I feel NLP does work, and works well. You could call it by another name, biting induced wetness, or whatever, but the principles that are sold as NLP do work. I have not tried the advanced hypnosis and self-hypnosis crap (it is unethical by me), but a lot of the triggers, keywords, command phrases etc. do work.
I see NLP as a sensory assault, targeting both the verbal and emotional centers of a woman without her being cognizant of it... more like talking her into feeling things... and you all know it works. (I have tried a simple NLP exercise of leading a woman through her happy experiences and sexual experiences so many times, and it completely alters her state and gives you a massive 'in' with her)
The major failing with NLP is when you lose a woman, you lost her for good with a good measure of drama thrown in. They feel manipulated, and if you don't have a good all round game, she will resent you once she gets on the other side of your spell. The NLP camp seems to be filled with heartless nerds who don't seem to have a personality beyond repeating patterns.. they seem to be in it to avenge injustices done to them.. sort of.
There are good elements to NLP that can be built into everyones natural game. It is an excellent tool for rapport building.
