Feminist Critics explore the Seduction Community : "There are a lot of problems with the seduction community that feminists correctly observe. In other cases, feminist critiques of pickup artists (PUAs) in the seduction community are premature, misguided, or unfair."

As women look for their ideal romantic male then men must conform to female expectations just to start a relationship with them.

This is what men training to be pick up artists are- learning and training how to go from Joe Schlmo to Romeo. PUA is simply putting what the top %2 Romeos know and what %90 of female women expect into training and knowledge that the %80 Joe Schlmo's can access. There is simply no other alternative in this culture.

Despite its flaws, the seduction community has the highest concentration of advice for consensual and mutual sexuality that exists in our culture and actually works, particularly for people who are average or below in social skills.

I think this is true. The seduction community hasn't got it all figured out yet, but it stands head and shoulders above anything else men have to get them laid.

PS I fucking hate feminists

Upvoted. I haven't got all the way through, but it is infuriating, fascinating and illuminating all at the same time.

The feminist comments have made me fully realize something that has been bouncing around in the back of my mind for some time (and every time I read Feministing). Feminists are the most socially mal-adjusted people I know. Almost to the same level as Aspergers sufferers.

The cause is different but the symptoms are the same: they do not understand basic social interactions or social cues. For the Aspergers victim, it is because his brain is actually mis-wired and he does not interpret them at all. For the feminisim sufferer, it is because she has trained herself to constantly look at the "patriarchy" enforced gender inequities, and considers all male behavior a manifestation of such.

causation caveat Thought about it some more. It is possible that the type of women who have had unfulfilling social interaction in the past, (perhaps due to mild Aspergers or other Autism spectrum disorders) are drawn to feminism because it provides a ready-made salve for their social pain: It's not your fault, it's the patriarchy.

I don't quite understand whether feministcritics.org has writings by critics of feminism, or feminists who are critics.

While this is an interesting find, I wouldn't want to be associated with feminism in any sense, nor would I want to lend legitimacy to feminism in ay context. The PUA community bases it's tenets on evolutionary psychology and real world experience, while feminism is based on pseudo-science and reactionary conjecture. A REAL feminist would have you believe there is absolutely no difference between an average man and woman except for their genitals, a foundation which modern neuroscience and sociology have shown to be completely false on every level. Sorry about the rant, I just hate feminists.

LOL After I read this will go ask Hitler what he thinks of the Jews, I really have no idea what kind of answer to expect.

Who cares what women say, or think?

Pickup is about making women put out, not talking to them.

Jeez.
