But isn't it a website about picking up Russian girls?

Loads of judgemental, outdated shit like "The difference between that approach and PUA is that you are truly looking for a life-partner and wife and not just a one night stand.".

Careful dudes, if you are not looking to get a wife every time you go to a bar, you are immoral and should feel bad!

"Think about the ways that you can make yourself a better man."

The only way this sentence makes any sense is if you define your worth based on how girls value you. There's the female imperative for you.

In her last post, her criticism of the community is based on various soundbites she's heard about Mystery and Style.

Her "praise," sure enough, is focusing on some of the basic principles that are always in play. This is how it always tends to work when people who know nothing about the community criticize the community -- they think of some examples like negs, and use them to show that the whole community is inherently problematic, or "wrong," or what-have-you (what's worse, they specifically target seddit, even though we hardly ever talk about negs, and most people here don't recommend them).

When people try to point out the positive aspects (which usually tend to be the core values espoused by most people in the community), they're like "Well yeah, confidence is good, and everything else you mentioned is good.. but those negs are terrible and the community is terrible! I'm done with this conversation!"

Just look at Ross Jeffries, one of the main proponents of neuro-linguistic programming. Even people in the community don't really appreciate him, yet most politicians and actors get lessons from various NLP coaches (though their "material" might fall under a different name, since NLP catches a lot of flak).
