This works for me! It's sad to see that PUArtistry has jumped from learning social skills to requiring muscles, money and education in order to meet girls (the reverse of what PUA is based on).
Brains, Brawn, and Money > Uneducated, Out of Shape, little cash....Any day of the week. Social skills are still taught, however, overall improvement is pushed greatly because it works. Being physically healthy, educated, and having monetary resources puts you in a better position than the average folks of the world.
Personally, I really don't care what you do, but I'm out here enjoying life with mates who are doing the same. None of us stress about exercise, school or money and we are all cleaning up with women. We have about a 1 in 2 hit rate and very few guys that come up here, stay single for more than 2 weeks, however, I didn't write this piece with a focus of foreign women or foreign lands....
Its not stressful for those who enjoy it. I enjoy that high feeling when I hope of the bike after 12 miles. I enjoy the soreness in my muscles that tells me I am only going to get more defined muscles.
I like knowing that my degree will mean I will make more in my lifetime than if I didnt have one. Look up the statistics on degree holders vs those without. Sure there are people who do fine without one or poorly with one, but the averages speak for themselves. A degree vastly increases your earning power. Which is why I will have a Masters within 2 years as well.
I believe my points are still relevant to life in North America. If you don't like it or you think its BS, fine... I think the forum and message has morphed into something so far removed from the original principles of pickup. There is a certain 'guru' in Canada who prides himself on wearing a girdle to keep his beer gut in, yet manages to pickup women left, right and center.
I take gurus with a grain of salt. A lot of them BS their stories and success rates. And then we have some in the community I have seen brag a lot and dont do nearly as well as they say they do.
Lets not forget sosuave.com is not bodybuilders.com, nor is it run by Tony Robbins or The Millionaire Mind guy. The point of this site WAS to show typical guys how to meet women without having to turn to pep-talks and protien shakes. If my friends in Canada who look like hell and are broke as fvck, still manage to bed hot young women, even past the age of 40, the guys here can certainly learn to work with what they have.
Lol hot is subjective. I can only imagine what some past 40 ugly, broke dude brings home. I can guess that itd make me cringe though.
Unless Doc Love is planning on selling a new CD that promotes acquiring education/muscles and money to meet women, I think he would agree with me here. A solid foundation in ****y/Funny and a little game theory is all you need.
Not even dude. Women can be just as shallow and as visual as men. Game is great to have, but your looks get you in the door a lot of the time. The less looks and status you have, the more game you need. And sometimes tremendous game wont overcome physical appearance, as many short guys or out of shape guys will tell you. It either took them hitting the gym or approaching a different type of woman, for them to get success. Do a thread search. Not making it up.
But maybe you are right, maybe my friends and I are just incredibly lucky and have been so for the past 10 years. Maybe you need all this other crap to meet modern North American women... what a shame.
Rollo: At least out here I get to be myself and I'm not faulted for it.
If anyone is ever in Shanghai, send me a PM.
Peace out.
