Group sex and the shift from scarcity to abundance
An anonymous player I know says,
Group sex has fundamentally shifted my thoughts about Red Pill and seduction. I cannot understate the change in me. It really does feel like a shift from scarcity to abundance.
I know this feeling and yet no other writing players I'm aware of are tapping non-monogamy and groups. Threesome and group sex fantasies are very common among both men and women, as women themselves attest, but most women are passive and lack the leadership necessary to make their fantasies reality. Very few women know guys who can pull off executing these fantasies, so, if you become that guy, you are by definition not a commodity guy. Women are bombarded by commodity guys with basic or no sex skills, and a guy who can unlock their dirtier fantasies is not that guy. If you tap into the sex club world, you will also end up unlocking a pool of girls who are pre-selected for liking to f**k a lot... and then you can f**k them.
Women have the fantasy, but the group-sex reality usually needs deep coordination between the participants, especially for MFM. The threesome management guide I wrote probably understates the degree to which coordination is important. Ideally all the players should cooperate and coordinate, but the temptation to defect remains potent in many threesome situations, and it often happens that one party is less active during some parts than the other two parties. This can lead to feelings of isolation and being left out, particularly because most threesomes happen between an established couple and a third person. The third person often brings new relationship energy (NRE) in with them.
After an MFM or FMF, the aftercare for the girl is super important. Many girls will experience sub-drop, and the girl may be susceptible to feelings of worthlessness, low sexual marketplace value, disgust, regret, etc. The girl may need reaffirmation that she is a good person, that sexuality is fun and normal, that she is not dirty or degraded, and that she's not just a f**k-toy for men. That means she probably needs to be held, cuddled, chatted with, etc. The man should check in with her the next day, in person if possible. It's a good idea to do a non-sexual or low-sexual date as soon as possible, like getting coffee or going for a walk. This allows her to process the intensity of the group sex situation and feel that her normal life is not disturbed by what she may feel are depraved fantasies.
All of these challenges can be overcome and mitigated, but the novice group-sex initiate often doesn't anticipate them. I don't think I anticipated them effectively. I also didn't anticipate how it was possible to combine non-monogamy, game, and sex clubs to unlock abundance and commodification.
Another player says,
I thought you need to be an experienced player to do threesomes and group sex and now I organised MFM is less than four months in a game with a first regular after four months dry spell. Wtf is going on?
I can understand it... and that is part of the reason I like it... and also part of the reason I think the rest of my game has improved... I genuinely don't give a fuck if any individual girl is into me or not, which makes them more into me, and protects my vibe/state during cold streaks. I know that I'll end up getting laid one way or another... so if she wants these peak experiences, she needs to enter my world. That's kind of the attitude, or the frame. Many women reject the gift... and that's fine... most people's lives are kind of crappy.
I want to emphasize that I care a lot about the women in my life who I choose and who choose me, and with whom I have a tight bond. Many guys get hurt or angry when a strange women rejects them. That's the wrong way to think about it, although I understand how desperation and horniness drives guys to think that way. The woman who offers a swift rejection gives you the gift of your time and attention, to better deploy them. Time is always finite, and one modern tragedy is the way people waste it on social media.
The player who organised the MFM also substituted (some) knowledge for experience. That is the beauty and magic of books... they accelerate learning. Reading a book is no perfect substitute for experience, as should be obvious, but the player who's read it has the intellectual and social framework for implementing group sex and non-monogamy ideas. I had to build up those things from scratch.
I think most guys think threesomes "just happen" after a bunch of drinking and lucky circumstances. You are taking "just happens" and making an industrial process or algorithm out of it. Once you have the fundamental, you know what to do. Discovering the algorithm is hard, but implementing it is (relatively) easy. The free book allows guys to get past the innovation phase and towards the engineering/implementation phase.
One theme you've seen running through this blog is about markets, supply, and demand. Magnum tweeted out The Dating Market: Thesis Overview, about dating market dynamics... "A conservative estimate of the percentage of new relationships begun online in 2019 is at least 65%, but likely over 75%." "The social costs of rejecting a potential mate are now likewise effectively zero, making introductions within existing social groups (friends, family friends, church, etc.) structurally inferior propositions given significant social and reputational risk in the event of an adverse outcome."
The age dynamic creates significant inter-age cohort competition in the female population and increased overall competition in the male population. This can be conceptualized as the market becoming more efficient, which naturally leads to many market participants anecdotally expressing unhappiness with the status quo as they incorrectly identify an inability to produce low effort excess returns as the circumstances being “unfair.” Basically, the same thing is happening in the dating market as is happening in the Hedge Fund market: things are getting more efficient, very few are pleased about it, and there are lots of strange advice books, blogs, and videos coming out.
But for top guys, women become a commodity... something this author has missed.
We could say, "Sometimes it seems to me that a good unified theory of modern society’s anxieties might be 'everything is too efficient and it’s exhausting.'" Dating is more efficient in some ways, but less efficient in others. Most chicks can't accurately assess a guy through his online bullshit. Most guys however can accurately assess about how hot a chick is. So chicks have lots of choices without good ways of navigating those choices. This seems like a detour, but the market for basic guys is flooded.
The market for guys who can make a woman's sexual fantasies come true remains thin. Most guys can't do this. I'm teaching guys how not to be like most guys. I don't know, maybe in 10 years all guys will have threesomes and group sex in their quivers, and it won't be a significant differentiator. For right now, today, it sure is. I am helping guys get out of the efficient markets and into inefficient markets for making fantasies happen. If every guy is on Tinder he will be judged accurately and harshly as a commodity, but if he is doing daygame, building his value, and offering enticing non-commodity experiences, well then he's going to offer unusual value.
I also think most guys and chicks are doing online dating poorly, but that is a rant for another time.
New thread, a player had an MFM and then worked through the aftermath of it,
We did a debrief today and discussed the good, the bad and the ugly of the MFM. One lesson learnt for me was having a second crack at [girl] while [player 1] was in the shower. We cleared that up and agreed no more sex unless he or I are back in the room with our main girl.
Personally I'm not worried about sex happening with the main girl while I'm not in the room, provided that I trust the other guy. But I understand where these rules come from. In addition, applying this kind of business logic or practice to sex is also how to build skills rapidly. Most guys, especially younger guys who have not been in the work world, are not familiar with these kinds of practices. There are different formal methodologies for this, like six sigma, but they are pretty similar. Smart businesses know they are key to rapidly building skills and improving product, service, etc. There is no reason they cannot or should not also be applied to seduction... or in this case to group sex. Most of us have ego defenses that inhibit us from getting honest negative feedback, but the good/bad/ugly mechanism or mechanisms like it help us overcome ego defenses and work to maximize skill improvement.
After intense group sex experiences it's often good to run through these kinds of things to determine what limits and boundaries are there as well as how to make them better next time. Each individual and couple needs to work out their own rules and principles, and I can't do that for them.
Overall, these players are hitting many of the expected milestones, so it's positive to see that my experience doesn't seem to be unique but instead is part of a pattern that is replicable by others.
