Does cocky-funny even work on millennials?

I think it still does but try leaning on the funny side more than the cocky. Sexualizing conversations also work better.

I tried this out on a couple of hook-up apps and had the most luck with millennials on Tinder and Bumble for relationships but Adult Friend Finder was the best for finding hookups. The cocky side didn’t really work but the witty and funny side does.

Funny always works.

They're not going to respond positively to sexism the way women from older generations might. But cocky-funny/alphaness? You're not doing it right.

It'll work on the hotter ones that constantly receive praise and compliments.

How old are you?

In my experience it works all the same. 16 to 40 age range. And millenials are the 18 to 30 age range. Maybe be more specific about what you're experiencing?

Works just fine on millennials. Assuming you know the actual age range of millenials. I couldn't tell you if it works on people born in 2000 because um, that would be illegal, and disgusting.

Worked on mine.

How could it not? Cocky funny is an attitude of being fun with a frame control of being a sexual guy girls like. It is built into female subconcious, from so far back its going to take 100's of generations not a couple to remove it. They all want and desire a guy that other girls like, and the fun is just a way of doing that with a great attitude as well.

If you have the attitude girls like you, no matter what, so your not reserved and don't try and make them happy by what you tell them and how.. and you are also being playful and fun, up-beat and friendly.. you are cocky funny without even trying, and thats the goal. Cocky becuase you know girls like you, not because you are saying cocky shit. Fun because you are making them laugh and have a natural up beat vibe about you.

I think your cocky funny must not be coming off correctly. The cocky is frame control, not being an ass, if you loose the frame you are going to loose the set.

Irrelevant theory about the demonization of "alpha masculinity". Sounds more like a calibration issue than anything else -- younger girls also tend to be lower self-esteem in general and if they are younger than you are they don't usually think themselves higher status, so a neg would be an inappropriate tactic. The older woman likely think more highly of themselves, which makes the neg a little more appropriate.

Cocky funny works on everyone if you know how to calibrate. Your tone and facial expression are probably out of congruence with what you're saying.

2014-04-22T18:32:06+00:00

You can't really group a generation of girls together like that, everyone's different IMO

If you're idea of 'cocky' is a 'neg', revise your idea of cocky. You shouldn't need to depend on bringing her down a notch.

Aalewis__ · 2014-04-23T09:30:37+00:00

depends on their bitchyness levels

Stevonz123 · 2014-04-22T11:15:57+00:00

It works girls around my age, source: 16 y/o

Cocky funny != alpha.

Millennials prefer old school stoic masculinity. True confidence works better on them.

ThePUA_Baddie · 2014-04-22T16:31:33+00:00

Cocky funny is for douche bags. Just be funny, charming and direct. Bound to work

HappyJerk · 2014-04-22T13:31:44+00:00

How about you stop trying to be a douchebag on purpose and just be yourself???
