The infamous “shit test” made popular by the pickup artist community. They say that the most important rule of stoic optimism is that your roadblocks should be seen as opportunities. When a girl gives you a shit test, I don’t want guys to think of it as an impediment, but to think of it as two things. First, a compliment because she’s emotionally reactive to you. Second an opportunity, because if you pass that shit test her level of attraction for you will go way up. A frame is an assumption underlying a conversation that dictates the meaning. If you walk up to a girl, more often than not she will have the frame “here is this guy hitting on me”. This frame that the woman has automatically puts you at a lower value. This is because you want something from her. On the guys end of the bargain, you might have the frame “I am this amazing guy talking to her and she is lucky for this opportunity to get to know me. This is the first point of conflict. Now you both have a frame and these frames are in conflict. This is where we start to understand the basis of the shit test. the shit test is about determining who has the stronger frame. When I say who has the strongest frame I mean, which frame you two are going to agree upon for the interaction. This is important because unless there is agreement upon a frame, then there is no interaction. The most important component about being able to pass a shit test is to understand what they are. They are a compliment and an opportunity. If you understand this then you are going to naturally and instinctively answer them in a better way rather than being so defensive and nervous.

Attractive girls get hit on a lot, whether it be in person or over social media. They can’t give their attention to every guy that’s hitting on them. They have to make pretty quick decision to see if the guy is worth their time or not. For this reason, they need a mechanism to tell them if the guy will be a worthy sexual decision or not. If they were only to just go by the words that came out of your mouth, then it would be too easy to fake words. This problem of lying can be circumvented by putting the guy under pressure. If you can handle a test under high pressure, then it’s an honest signal you are a congruent high value guy. The shit test helps women decide very rapidly where you stand, and its purpose is to help them make a very good decision very efficiently. The main idea that women are looking for is if you can you hold your frame. If the approach or introduction is done right then usually the guy is stepping into the interaction with the frame of “I’m this cool guy, sex with me would be good”. The girl will always test this frame. By the end of the shit test the women will attempt to answer “is this guy being honest? Does he believe in himself? Is he worthy of me?”. The biggest way to past shit test is not to react emotionally. If you flinch or look away, stutter , seem lost, or can’t hold eye contact, you will have lost. These are all responses that will hurt you. It’s important to understand that shit test are not bad things. It indicates that you are in the realm of the girl considering you. If you pass the shit test it’s a tremendous way to build your value in the girls eyes extremely quickly.
