I like the concept, i like that she is trying. I wonder how she addresses the differences. Dating is radically different for different categories of girls. Average to attractive girls need almost no "pick up" advice. They generally only need encouragement to go out and be available in that aspect, esp. if they're only looking for a good time.

Unattractive girls on the other hand will find it difficult no matter how proficient their social skills are. Guys are just so looks oriented.

If i was giving a girl pick up advice, 90% of it will be "don't let yourself go/hit the gym". Even if you are shy or not very good looking- how your body looks is something you can control and the difference will be radical, much more radical than if a guy did it. Dress well, look good=high self esteem+more attractive.

Skip all the dates that don't say "STAND OUT DATE"

She has a very strict "You must pay for the first date, or you don't get a second" which I don't really like

AAAAAND just got to her videos haha, she's a total bro.

This strikes me as an incredibly odd concept, since self-improvement considerations aside, a big part of the utility of pickup artistry is in turning the tables in a way that elevates your relative position. But in the dating real, women already generally occupy that position. So I'm a bit unclear (though I will read through a couple of posts to see if this is answered) as to what makes her a fPUA instead of a woman just casually dating around.

These are generally pretty interesting to read, it strikes me as noteworthy that even if she had fun on the date it by no means guarantees romantic feelings on her behalf.

I do however dislike the fact that she has to talk about who pays in almost everyone, and if a guy doesn't pay she writes him off. To me, for me to pay for a first date I have to genuinely believe that this girl is bringing a lot of value in to my life. I feel like that's not an easy thing to be really sure of on the first date. I'm all for being confident and leading the way, but if a girl writes me off for not paying chances are I wouldn't want to be with her anyway.

This is fantastic stuff. Studying up on this stuff is one thing, hearing it from a fairly attractive woman is another. She validates a lot of positive behaviors we are preaching here, but also acknowledges that she is still learning. In #29 she even says this experience is helping her grow. Some of you are giving her a little too much flak for saying she writes men off for not paying on first dates. Who knows where she'll be by #100..

I don't mind paying for things every now and then, so long as I'm not being used only for buying things. Having said that, this seems like she is creating one of those situations.

Heh, she would be fun to seduce.

Thanks, good read.

Also non-threatening.

HB7 that thinks she's an HB9.

Kozbot · 2012-05-03T01:23:29+00:00

she looks like a cokewhore

fPUA has to to be the dumbest shit in existence. No women can logically understand why she is being attracted to a man. So silly to think they could teach it too.
