Cameron Russell (model) TED Talk. The r/seduction takeaway? Gorgeous women are just as humanly insecure as average looking women.

I think this is getting a weird connation here. She wasnt saying that pretty girls are insecure and thus more approachable than we might think as the title of this link seems to suggest.. If anything they will be more critical due to the constant competitive standards they exist in.

On top of that this talk might be useful for a 7th grade girl who is feeling insecure but mostly its just the model explaining obvious facts to make herself feel "empowered" and "different than other models." Not very informative except in the way sunday school lectures remind you of stuff thats already obvious. Dont steal, dont run with scissors etc.

7 and 8's get hit on more than 9's and 10's go big

That's bullshit. There are some insecure hot girls, but a lot of good looking girls know that they're good looking and they know what to do with that power.

Good for her for acknowledging the fact that she won the "genetic lottery" and lucky enough to be born at the right place and time in history where being a good looking white woman is highly beneficial.

As for implementing this TED talk for seduction, I'm not sure if there is much to implement anything new.

Everyone is insecure about something, and they're insecure because the idea of want has been placed into their heads by advertising companies.

Men, you're not happy because you're not real men...what is a real man? This decade a real man has a muscular body, a thick head of hair, a chizzled jawline, no body hair, a large cock and he wears an Omega watch while smelling of Dolce & Gabbana perfume.

A real woman on the other hand has perfect facial symmetry, perfectly smooth and acne free skin, full lips, piercing blue or green eyes with oversized eyelashes that, when batted seductively, will make men feel weak in the knees. As a matter of fact, if you don't have these eyelashes, women, don't bother looking at men. Real women have a thin waist, wrists and ankles. Their average height is 5'11 and their weight is 110lbs, anything over is considered fat and ugly and don't bother coming out because men won't look at you.

Advertisement is based on insecurity and the false idea of happiness. And in this capitalistic world, advertisement is king.

I checked her bio: college dropout. I knew it.

I have rarely heard such superficial comments about privilege. This lecture is a waste of time. They let almost anyone speak at TEDx. Let us know when someone addresses this topic at TED, not TEDx.

Did anyone else pickup on the take away? To me it sounds like she was saying that everything seems better then it really is

To me this is very true in everyday life and in pickup! I mean for me once I have the girl my interest drops a little and if I cant get the girl I do anything to get her ( something I need to work on)

Welcome to TED. Not exactly the place for depth and rigor.

Not to mention the fact that anything about how "beautiful women are insecure, too" is probably aimed more at women than men. Few things are more comforting than believing that those who are "better" than you are actually just like you, after all.

But then, I didn't bother to watch the video; TEDx, Supermodel Edition. Seriously? And yet, this link has 162 "up" points at time of writing. Eye candy overcomes thought, as usual. Add pseudo-psychological insights, mix in a "personal" anecdote or two and you've got an instant winner.

Save a few minutes of your life; skim the comments here instead of racking up another Youtube hit for the "humanly insecure" supermodel.
