Around the web, about how most guys don’t even try and the future belongs to the ones who do
Also, what group sex is like, and the history of the seduction arts
|Dating Roundup #1: This Is Why You're Still Single.| Lots of good material here, mostly that people who try are much more likely to succeed than people who don’t. You’ve read here at RQ that cold approach is a superpower... the more guys become p*ssy, the more powerful cold approach is.
Madd Monk’s first NYC daygame date. He says, “This is the most normal and attractive girl I’ve been on a date with in a minute.” Madd Monk’s Substack tells some stories about frustrating dates with crappy weirdo chicks from online dating apps... then he gets off the apps, meets women in the flesh, and he finds that chicks in real life (IRL) are better and more normal... are you sensing a pattern? Cold approach is potentially a superpower for women too, but few women will approach men.
|What's It Like Being At a Gangbang? With Lucy Belmont.| News you can use that you don’t get most places. A lot of group sex is like this, if it’s any good, “Everyone was really cooperative and like, psyching each other up.” People don’t understand that. Done correctly positive sum. To have a good event it’s necessary to carefully screen who comes. It’s like hiring for a company. You have to both hire good people and then help level up and acculturate the people you do hire. Both are necessary. There is a culture to good group sex and it can be learned, but some people suck and must be excluded.
Ross Jeffries interviewed by default_friend in a podcast. Jeffries was one of the original pickup / seduction guys, getting started back in the late ‘80s. A character, for sure. He sounds like a guy who’s about to try to sell a condo. Extremely self-aggrandizing. Impressive in some ways but also limited in most others. In The Game Strauss says,
Ross couldn’t handle himself around classy people. He spent most of the night thinking he was flirting by acting as if he were my gay lover and crawling on all fours behind Carmen Electra, pretending to be a dog sniffing her ass. When I was talking to another girl, he interrupted to brag about a pickup he had just done. At 10:00 P.M., he said he was tired and demanded that I drive him home.
That’s consistent with his demeanor on the podcast. At 65 he’s still doing the same sh*t he was when he was 29. He seems like someone I’d never want to introduce to real-life friends, or to family... think of |The curious, cautionary fates of many of the guys who go deep into game and Internet|.
Pick heroes and mentors carefully.
“Then came the advent of the highly-strung women’s site and, understandably, shit got weird.” In truth boobs have never left (this comment will make sense in light of the article / “article”), men continue to love them, and the media conversation is divorced from the everyday reality all of experience on the ground, in which men like and prefer hot slender women with nice boobs. “‘Fat acceptance’ will never happen in the places it matters.” There is no “body positivity” movement for fat or short men, I wonder why?
|In defence of pick-up artistry: The Game contains some surprising lessons| is pretty dumb, particularly at the start, but the writer understands what the detractors miss,
I was surprised upon revisiting The Game to realise that the strategies contained within the book are not just useful but mostly in keeping with more traditional dating and courtship advice, from “peacocking” (wearing something eye-catching or unusual that can act as a conversation starter), to passing “shit tests” (responding with humour and confidence when a woman teases you). Even the much-derided negging wasn’t originally designed with the goal of insulting or belittling women, but rather to teach men how to talk to them without fawning and drooling all over the place. In the end, the message of The Game is more or less identical to the one in popular women’s dating guides, like The Rules or He’s Just Not That Into You: that confidence is sexy, and naked desperation is a turnoff.
This writer’s point is seemingly simple but a lot of socially defective people are able to meet, mate, have children, and then spread their social defectiveness to the next generation, and The Game is especially about helping such people... but it is about how to better interact with people. In a world full of spergs who spend their formative years on video games instead of with other people, that is of key importance. Women want to be competently picked up.
Own who you are. Make the future.
|How lads’ mags went soft: Masculinity has lost its sense of humour.| Not many of the guys writing about the seduction arts are funny, which might be part of their (our) problem with the seduction arts...
|Anyone doing any online dating needs to learn basic photography skills.| By Red Quest, effectiveness is under-rated still.
This book is about the game and seduction arts, although it doesn’t include the word “game” or phrase “seduction arts.” If you want to do better with women you’d do well to get offline and read it. Probably you don’t actually want to be effective.
|It’s Harder to Hate the Other Side When You Come Face to Face|. People in real life are fine. Getting laid > political b*llshit.
“This is about a reflex of yours, your fear of sex.” Great players + seduction artists always love women and sex. The haters are scared.
“‘A suspicion of mine is that there are too many preachy females’ dominating the culture of (the democratic party). ‘“Don’t drink beer. Don’t watch football. Don’t eat hamburgers. This is not good for you.” The message is too feminine: “Everything you’re doing is destroying the planet. You’ve got to eat your peas.”’
Too many school marms, too few people who understand that guys get shit done in the real world.
“We usually play with other couples, but maybe sometime idk” was the gist of her response. I get it. I’ve read enough RedQuest to know how this works. Man = not valuable by default, girl = valuable, man who brings girl = valuable by proxy. “I understand. If I find a girl who’s up for that, I’ll definitely ping you”. “Can’t wait” she replied.
Will it work? Tune in to Scaling the Mountain’s blog to find out.
Sexual arbitrage opportunities. Probably you’ve heard about guys exploiting them. This is a higher-end take on the subject.
Wolfe Daygame, |Return to the Circus|. A fun story including a notable yes-girl. The more you try the luckier you get.
|The Home Threat Of A War In Taiwan|. America and the rest of the free, democratic world is asleep... maybe we should wake the f*ck up...
|Brandy Melville sells affordable clothes for skinny shoppers, making it both popular and controversial: “It’s a status symbol.”| Hot chicks will always want their own stuff. Another example of how fat acceptance isn’t real. Especially with Ozempic.
