My friends and I had a similar system of measuring our chances at a particular party. We called it the "effective ratio": # of competitive males divided by the # of bang-able chicks.

By our calculations, you had just as much chance getting laid at an engineering house party as the local frat rager.

I'd imagine the herbivore movement in Japan is fairly helpful to those odds

[–]why_downvote_facts4 points5 points6 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Being white and overseas is pretty helpful already..

Good advice.

Stack the deck in your favor.

portland right?

[–]AbraxianAeon1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Tried this with reddit meetups.... the girls go for the guy who is already with a girlfriend WAY above their league, yet that's all they want.

Social proof.

Each point is valid in the strategy of meeting women:

  • Reduce competition
  • Increase prospects

There's no dichotomy, here: it's not one-or-the-other.

[–]Endorsed ContributorTDCRedPill2 points3 points4 points 13 years ago (4 children) | Copy Link

There's no dichotomy, here: it's not one-or-the-other.

I think there's a point missed here somewhere. The idea of your two bullet points, 'Reduce competition' and 'Increase prospects' are aspects of the 'where girls are plentiful' strategy.

Article points out a different tactic of 'where the men are weak', and highlights the scenario in a way that contradicts both of your bullet points. The competition (number of men) was increased as a matter of quantity instead of a matter of quality, and the number of prospects were reduced (number of women).

Both are valid strategies to use, but the article argues that the 'where the men are weak' strategy is more beneficial. I think we can all agree that a scenario where BOTH are in play (few men of low quality, many women) is even more ideal.

Thank you for pointing that out. I blame pre-coffee-Monday-morning-didn't-sleep-enough-too-much-drinking-and-my-imaginary-dog-ate-my-imaginary-homework.

I read the article, and still came away with the wrong conclusion. Cheers, brother!

[–]funnynickname2 points3 points4 points 13 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

The article provides an interesting theory, but doesn't give any usable advice at all. Where are these magical dance parties full of hot chicks and dumpy nerd men that I can crash?

[–]Endorsed ContributorTDCRedPill3 points4 points5 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

It's a strategy for you to keep in mind when you make your own decisions, not dogma that says 'try here'.

Here's a random hypothetical. Friend calls you to say that he's at strip club X at lunch time. All of the dancers are there, but Tommy Lee and his entourage just arrived, word got out on facebook, and there's now like 100 women and MAYBE 20 men all told in the place. You should come down, it's crazy with hot and cold running floozies everywhere.

Your other option is a huge Magic:The Gathering tournament going on. 200 geekboys and 20 geekgirls, including a few hot girls cosplaying.

Article suggests that the tournament is the way to go; it's silly to expect the article to say 'go to magic tournaments to pick up chicks'.

[–]Bobsutan2 points3 points4 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

The main lesson you should all be taking away from this is to go where you'll have status. If you don't have any then you need to build it. Adam Lyons talks about principles of attraction and scheduling one event a month where you are the event organizer and thus you'll have the most status in the room. This is what you invite all your girl...friends to and the women you've been talking to but who are lukewarm. When they all see you as the top dog their attitude WILL change. Not all of them, but at least some. What that event is centered around is up to you.

The essence of the Rooshtafarian philosophy.

[–]INTJurassic1 point2 points3 points 13 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

This is amazing! It makes perfect sense. I've been thinking about social settings that are good for meeting women, but it's usually related to hair salons, tanning salons, cooking/baking classes, art classes, knitting clubs, shopping malls, dirty clubs/bars, etc..... pretty much stuff I have little-to-no interest in.

I wonder where one can find these spots?

Ideas:

  • Starcraft tournaments
  • Anything else video game-related
  • comic-con/anything-con
  • comic book stores
  • board game clubs
  • meetup.com (beware masses of fatties)
  • chess clubs
  • D&D

A lot of the above will have no women there, or at least not ones you would want. But the idea is priceless: by taking the red pill and learning game, one can have the (social) hobbies he truly enjoys, and it can actually help him meet women.

[–]dropit_sphere[S] 4 points5 points6 points 13 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Even as a huge nerd, I would not advise making it a regular "thing" to hit these locations, looking for women. They generally do nothing to improve you as a man. Your time is better spent (in terms of value to yourself, not necessarily in terms of meeting women) on activities that add value to yourself, be they exercise, education, or entrepreneurship.

Sure, if you want a relaxer, keep your Tuesday night (ending before midnight) D&D group. But don't be the guy who justifies 4 hours of SC2 every day with "gotta be good to go to tournaments and hit on chicks."

"So where am I supposed to hit on girls then?" The answer is everywhere, eventually. As you improve yourself, the proportion of situations where you are the most alpha around will increase.

This is horrible advice. A plethora of desperate guys turns the fun party vibe into the creepy men harassing me vibe.

If everyone is having fun and hooking up, half the work is done for you cause the girls that ain't hooking up want in on the action.

Have you guys never seen the 'Nerd queen' phenomenon when you have a 100-1 ratio?
