I get hit on by gay guys all the time. It just means you're an attractive dude. They don't know you're not gay until they start talking to you, hence, you get their attention. I have a gay friend, and he told all his mutual friends that he thinks I'm good-looking. Just take it as a complement

Yeah, I'm not the feminist "Avert your eye's away from me" type.

[–]Axotl 9 points10 points11 points 12 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

Gaining more self-respect and more control of your life invites respect from everyone, not just women. SMV is outdated as a term, it should just be V. Value.

[–]VaginalFungus 1 point2 points3 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

This might seem like a stupid question. Although I'm well aware what SMV implies, I'm not sure about what SMV stands for. I know the V is value but what's the S and the M.

[–]azrap11 point2 points3 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Sexual market value

[–]gohammer36 points7 points8 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Been noticing the same thing, if you can bring out the feminine timid side of a girl she wants your babies. As you continue to increase your SMV men will respect your more and both sexes will stare a lot, even straight men.

[–]Endorsed ContributorRedPillDad0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

will stare a lot

Most guys are somewhat invisible. They're muted in appearance, conversation and behavior. Part of raising your SMV is having the confidence to stand out without trying to stand out.

It's not about seeking attention. It's more about not giving a fuck about anyone's approval or disapproval. You become louder, more animated, more intense and more connected to yourself and those around you. It's like the warrior inside has finally bust out of his fucking prison.

When I let this side of me out to play, I get plenty of stares.

[–][deleted] 3 points4 points5 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Its nothing to worry about. Take it as flattery. If gay dudes think you're hot, women probably will too.

[–]DarkSayed 0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

Maybe they just want to find out what you're doing that they aren't but should be.

[–][deleted] 0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (3 children) | Copy Link

I'm still in that gray area, where I get subtle notices from women, but not much more than that.

But it's the gay men that come right out and say they want my body.

Don't expect this to change. Unless women are in a "safe zone" (read: club, party, anywhere where other women are doing it too) where they can be sexual without fears of being shamed or judged, they will very rarely make overt comments like this.

[–][deleted] 1 point2 points3 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I think you're right.

I doubt I'll ever be the guy who gets swolested at a bar.

[–]Turkerthelurker1 point 12 years ago [recovered] | Copy Link

Not with that attitude

[–]OsoFeo-2 points-1 points0 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Are you in an urban area with a lot of gay guys? It's possible the attention you're getting is a cross-section of the attention that's locally available.

Also: are you working out? I mean, obviously so? It used to be that mostly only gay guys did that, but I think in the last 5-10 years that has changed, as straight guys have had to compete harder for women. But if you're getting too muscly, you may be unintentionally signalling teh gay.

[–]ButterMyBiscuit0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (0 children) | Copy Link

lol, at what point were the MAJORITY of men who worked out gay? Maybe back in ancient Greece.

[–]beautyisbiochemistry-1 points0 points1 point 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

Could sombody tell me what SMV stands for. I'm new. Thanks

Check the side bar for glossary of terms and acronyms.

[–]AlmostRP-2 points-1 points0 points 12 years ago (2 children) | Copy Link

You need to post a picture.

[–]hocusjokus[S] 0 points1 point2 points 12 years ago (1 child) | Copy Link

I haven't really changed my appearance all that much. Most of my changes have been in body language.
