I recently posted a thread on how being "selfish" in LTRs is to your benefit. There was a small amount of resistance by some saying they don't want to think of themselves as "selfish" (as if it's a "naughty word"). That is too comfortable. Too moderate.

So, let's go a step further beyond "selfish". I'm talking about Dark Triad Personality traits: narcissism, psychopathy, and Machiavellianism.

Science has shown over and over again the instinctual and sexual appeal that Dark Triad personalities have.

In a study in which scientists measured peoples' "Dark Triad" level, had them "dress up" & "dress down", and then had strangers assess their attractiveness...

People with dark personalities seem to be better at making themselves physically appealing. The findings reinforce previous research showing that narcissists are more popular than others, literally at first sight.

In another study, they had people make first-time introductions to each other and compared peoples' assessments of each other with "Dark Triad" scores...(literally speed dating)

Students scoring higher on narcissism were seen as more likeable. People perceived the narcissists as more likeable and found that they had flashier appearances, more confident body language, and more attractive facial expressions....this suggests that narcissists are more skilled at carrying and presenting themselves in a way that immediately impresses others.

Discussion:

The initial appeal of the narcissist or psychopath may be hard to resist. Physical attractiveness is often automatically associated with a host of other positive traits – a phenomenon known as “the halo effect.”...

Therefore, creating a physically attractive veneer is a highly effective way of creating an advantageous first impression. Combining physical attractiveness with confidence and humor is even more effective, and it appears that people with exploitive personalities are more successful at this as well.

I'm not going to say "fake it till you make it" here, because this is a world view and inherent personality rather than feigning "confidence on a date". The Redpill is a process and for many new people, you can't simply switch it on.

However, there should come a point at which you realize the world is fucked up. In recognizing that we as humans create our own poor circumstances, that also means have the power to create positive ones (Humanism, basically). And the only person you can rely on to do this is yourself (not the government or a beta provider).

So, you better damn well make sure you are equipped with the best tools for this & take advantage of every opportunity. Become amoral rather moral vs immoral. Once you get to this point, Dark Triad is just around the corner.
