How many girls have you slept with?
This is probably one of the most asked questions when I discuss game with others. I understand why some see it as a measure of success in pick-up, but...really? There are so many factors that could influence my decision to sleep with a girl or not, don't limit your definition of success to a simple number, it does not tell the whole story.
Not everyone here is looking to sleep with a thousand women, some of us have different goals, so why treat mine as a lesser one? Why don't you for example, ask how frequently one has sex? As a college student, I don't have time to cold-approach and go out every weekend to find a new girl every couple days. I have modeled my game differently, and as result of this, achieved my own goal.
I personally have a group of girls with whom I am comfortable around and can be honest and direct with, there are no expectations, jealousy or games, which allows us to get straight to the point.
Now I don't want you to think that all I care about is peer-approval, but it irks me that most guys, whether they are in the world of pick-up or not, will base their opinion of another dude on their "count". We need to move away from this one-dimensional way of measuring social value, there is much more to a person that their "count".
I would go even further and say that this issue affects our community more than we think, as it can greatly discourage newcomers and those simply searching for some friendly advice. I fear that we are shifting into an elitist community where coaches and youtubers are overly-glorified, and the new/intermediate people are harshly criticized and turned away.
Am I the only one that thinks this way? I would love to hear feedback and read other people's opinions. After all, this is what Seddit is for, no? :)
