Generally speaking, do you think being black makes it easier to be a pimp? There's a stereotype of the sexually virile black male that gives immediate credibility to your attitude of confidence (in the minds of the girls you hit on, that is).
White guys constantly mimick black guys in style and speech. As Chris Rock said, "Every cool white guy is imitating black guys. Fred Durst, Eminem.....Where have the cool white guys gone? Axl Rose was the last cool white guy."
Do you think that black men can get away with more while still being perceived as "cool" ?
The whiteboy player is much different from the black player. It's a whole different ballgame. The biggest whiteboy pimp I've ever known worked with a kind of innocent playfulness that drove girls nuts. He was charismatic, witty, but not overtly sexual. He had a kind of confident swagger, but was also a bit nerdy, so girls didn't feel threatened by him and maybe even underestimated him at first. I guess people were just drawn to this guy for his charisma.
As a white guy I haven't had success doing the "no challenge/exude sexuality" formula you advocate. I think it works for you because your image is more immediately believable as a Don Juan. Once they buy the fact that you're a Don Juan they can enjoy it.
It's going to sound like complaining, but is it more difficult for a white guy to "sell" himself as a Don Juan? Hate to say this but I attract the most girls when I am being (oh, no!) myself. I can't make my intentions known too soon. Or if I do, it must be as a half-joke, that will sit in a girl's mind and keep her up at night wondering if I was serious.
1. Sorry Pecker (ever thought of getting a new screen name) I didnt' see this post.
2. You have made a valid point. This style does take an attitude that brotha's have an easier time adopting. The reason is because:
a) most of us have grown up being reffered to as an inferior race in the states.
b) to off shoot this most brotha's have adopted this I don't give a f*uck attitude.
c) yes it's easier to be a REAL pimp with ho's paying you money if your black...but there have been white guys doing it too...who do you think owned those bordello's in Nevada like Mustang Ranch...where prostitution was legal?
Pimping did start and stayed in the black community due to the fact that at the end of the civil war old funky assed white men still wanted black p*ssy. Smart black men saw this and took advantage of it and talked sista's into bringing home extra food and money for their families when the white man wanted to get some of the good ole black p*ussy. From there it evolved to these guys making lots of money off these old assed white fools.
When the rich white community saw these former slaves driving carriages as fine as theirs they made prostitution illegal. Hollywood to further subjugate the power of these game players developed the effiminate outrageously dressed baffoon that you saw in characters like "huggy bear"
Don't buy the hype... some pimps actually bought into this crap but 90% didn't and you would be buying suits right next too one and wouldn't even know it.
Ok history lesson over:
White boys acting like nigga's are called Wigga's. I see these type of baffoons all the time dressed in short sets like gangsta's and rap artists wear...trying to adopt the urban dialects and thinking they are cool...don't do it. Your right it's better to be yourself..
but be a new improved self. with the same attitude as a black player only without the overtones.
Anybody can be so confident in themselves that they expect a woman to buy them things and pay their bills. The belief starts with YOU.
You gotta be so into how you are that everyone else around you is beneath you. Unfortunately this does sound egotistical...but that's the nature of the game.
It's late so I will try to finish this thurs.
peace
