A hot girl who is pleasant can basically point at any guy she wants and get him if she so chooses

A hot guy who is cool and charismatic cannot do the same

Why is this?

Simple...

Men have super simple attraction triggers and icks while women have 1000s of different attraction triggers and icks

To make matters even more complicated....

Often times what attracts girl A is an ick for girl B

Men: Is she hot? Is she pleasant/drama free? Cool we are in

Women:

Girl A: Loves tattoos and biker boys but hates if you're sweet and caring

Girl B: Totally turned off by tattoos and genuinely likes a warm, caring guy

Girl C: Will get the ick if you move too slow and is horny and wants you NOW

Girl D: Turned off by the fact you tried to move too fast. Don't you know it's disrespectful to make moves this soon?

Girl E: Loves man bun hippie look and the surfer lifestyle

Girl F: Goes crazy for the Christian Grey well put together business attire look and detests the hippie look

Girl G: Has a super nurturing side and genuinely gets aroused/positively triggered by you having a disability and wanting to nurture you for it (yes this is a phenomenon)

ETC ETC

So what's the takeaway here?

This post isn't meant to be ohh we have it so hard compared to them wahh

No - The winner takeaway is the following

1) We run as much volume as possible

That way it ensures that we meet the women for whom we DO have her attraction triggers

2) We are at peace and full confidence in who we are as a man

Since a lot of what her preferences are do not fall under our control

There's no reason to be neurotic about our flaws

Own them with full confidence and know that you are the man regardless

Once you internalize this it helps you stop being so hard on yourself for rejections

Sure if there's universally unattractive controllable things you need to actually improve on you need to get that handled

But once you do....

Taking rejection becomes a whole lot less personal

It's simply a matter of men and women having different levels of complexity in what attracts them

A top tier man will always have a lower close rate than a top tier girl

And that's ok

Because it gives you peace of mind to run proper dating strategy

And let the chips fall where they may

[Pimpjuice💤 @RealGame101]

A lot of guys ask me

“been out of the dating game for a year or so and feeling rusty, what are your go to resources that have helped you the most?”

1.) Honestly just volume

You’re gonna go on a few awkward dates at first and that’s ok

2.) Models by Mark Manson is the best book on the subject

3.) This guy RSD Julien was giving out absolute sauce back in the 2010’s but he got banned from the internet and it’s hard to find most of his old videos

But this one is a very good overview and worth the 90 mins

Charlize Theron admits that most women enjoy one night stand the most and prefer them over regular sex

“I should have done this in my 20s, who has time for dates, shaving, and waxing, and make up. I’ve got two children that have to go to school"

"I don't have many of them... so when I do, I'm like 'oh fuck yeah'"

"Do you need me to send you a call time? You’ve got 2 hours. I prefer just doing it with someone you literally just met”

[The Tate Motive @thetatemotive]

Andrew Tate reveals the one psychological trick to stop your girl from going out without you - without looking insecure. 😳

"Don't accuse her. Put it on her"

"The kind of relationship I take seriously is with a girl who only goes out with her man.

"If that's not you — okay."

Bono včera dvakrát použil styl chytání penalt, kdy tipnul stranu, ale neskákal. Díky tomu chytil např. tuhle šibenici.

Ptoti hráčům, kteří nesledují golmana je to dost dobrá taktika.

Bono si vlastně zmenší bránu na polovinu a pak spoléhá na reflexy. Skoro jak ve futsale.⚽️

[female natured @femalenatured]

“Hey we should go on a date”

He’s conceding to the female Frame off the rip.

“Date” implies public and no Sex.

There’s not even an attempt to win in his own Frame first then potentially compromise with hers to come to an agreement.

Just bending over backwards on message one.

No tension. No curiosity. No wondering what his intentions could even be.

[WompTomp @Womp_Tomp]

Notice how they’re all capitalist specializations of domestic/communal roles?

nurse= family/village care
teacher= home/local educator
childcare= mother/alloparent
dietician= herbalist/cook
home aid= homemaking
elderly/disabled care= almoner/deaconess/matron

The need for 80% of these and would disappear if women went back to domestic participation, but it’s more profitable and divisive for women to work for corporations than community. Sad truth.

Prezydent Karol Nawrocki o KRYZYSIE MĘSKOŚCI W Europie:

"Jestem mężczyzną, mężczyźni się nie obrażą.
Mężczyzna jest od tego, żeby rozwiązywać problemy i nie wahać się, czy założyć rodzinę.
W wieku 20 lat zostałem mężem i ojcem, mieszkałem w pokoju 14m2, robiłem doktorat i trenowałem.
Nie zastanawiałem się, czy rodzina mi się opłaci, po prostu chciałem mieć zonę i dzieci.
Uważałem to za swój obowiązek".

Ogromny aplauz.

Elon Musk says Optimus is the infinite money glitch.

Not because robots are valuable. Because robots can make more robots.

Musk explained that humanoid robots improve through three exponential trends multiplied together: digital intelligence, AI chip capability, and electromechanical dexterity. But the real unlock is that the robot can start making the robots.

"So you have a recursive multiplicative exponential," he said. "This is a supernova."

Musk's thesis is that once you have a physical robot capable of manufacturing, the production curve stops being linear and becomes self-replicating. Every robot built accelerates the building of the next one.

The implication is that the companies that control physical manufacturing will control AI's future, not the ones with the best models. The bottleneck is not intelligence. It is atoms.

Peter Thiel: Europe will never have massive tech companies because they fear success.

"In Silicon Valley, there's this pornography of failure. You talk about all your failures, and this somehow means you're going to succeed."

"In the social democratic European societies, it's acceptable to be moderately successful, it's not acceptable to be wildly successful. If you have a successful company that's starting to grow, it will get short-circuited, and you'll sell the company. You'll never get to an enormous company if you sell it along the way."

"The single most important decision in the history of Facebook— summer of 2006. It was two years into the company. We got an acquisition offer for $1B from Yahoo to buy the company. There were three of us on the board— Mark Zuckerberg, myself, and another VC. We had a meeting to decide if we should take the $1B."

"The two of us thought it was a lot of money, we should maybe take it. Mark started the board meeting— 'this is a pro forma thing, we're just going to talk about this for 10 minutes. Obviously we're not taking it.'"

"Any super big tech company is one where you've been offered multiple times for people to buy it, and you've chosen never to sell it. You're not that afraid of success."

"In Europe, the answer is to check out sooner rather than later and go back to the decade-long vacation that people are on in Europe."

Elon Musk told Michael Milken that SpaceX and Starlink use absolutely no AI - "I'm not against using it - we just haven't seen a use for it"

two years later he merged SpaceX with his $230 billion AI company xAI - now spending $12 billion a year on AI and planning to put AI computers in orbit by 2028

"the percentage of intelligence that is biological grows smaller every month - eventually it will be less than 1%"

"we should think of human civilization as a tiny candle in a vast darkness - we should do everything possible to ensure that candle does not go out"

"prosperity is what destroys the birth rate - Rome was paying citizens a bonus to have a third child in 50 BC"

There are fewer than 30 books on Evolutionary Psychology you can actually buy right now.

Not textbooks.
Not evolutionary biology.
Not anthropology.
Not general psychology.
Not books that just name-drop Darwin.

Books that are actually about EP. We checked. Over and over.

Fewer than 30.

READ THAT AGAIN.

Compare that to the other psych shelves on Goodreads:

Social Psychology — 3,744
Positive Psychology — 1,424
Clinical Psychology — 1,382
Cognitive Psychology — 870
Developmental Psychology — 507
Evolutionary Psychology — under 30 real ones

And before someone tells me the EP shelf is bigger — go look at it. It's stuffed with biology, neuroscience, and pop-Darwin books that aren't EP. Strip those out and you're back to under 30.

EP explains mating, jealousy, beauty, status, violence, sex differences, parenting, cooperation, morality, and culture.

So how does the most powerful framework in psychology have the smallest bookshelf?

The teenager who built Oculus VR in his garage, and sold it to Facebook for $2 billion, talks about the most uncomfortable argument about American manufacturing.

"You cannot divorce innovation from the act of manufacturing. You make the stuff, that's where the innovation takes place."

"We were not teaching engineers how to be engineers anymore. We're teaching them how to be high-level design shops that put together a design package that gets sent to the real engineers in China, and they actually figure out how to do the work."

"They don't get 50% more for their dollar. They get like 10x for their dollar. Things that here would take a million dollars, you do there for $50,000, $100,000."

"Their people are just genuinely extremely good. They have the world's best battery engineers, many of the world's best metallurgists, many of the world's best optical engineers."

"The largest laptop manufacturer for the Pentagon is Lenovo, which is owned by China. Their headquarters has a flagpole with the CCP party flag and then the Lenovo logo under it. It's nuts."
