Neil Strauss (Style) on Jimmy Kimmel Live
Author of bestseller "The Game: Penetrating the Secret Society of Pickup Artists" and proclaimed PUG put to the test.First of all, I appreciate all of your comments,. You guys have made this video even more interesting. The reception that this video got is pretty interesting. I must say though, I uploaded it for the same reason I would upload a music video. It is simply enjoyable to watch. I have read the book, and it was a very interesting read. One of those books that you just can't put down. However, you have got to keep in mind that this guy is a writer, that's what he does. He embellishes his stories in a way that they become completely enticing. He is a master at writing, especially when describing the fine details with such a modern and cool style. He seems to be naturally a pleasant person. That's because when he introduces himself, he doesn't convey the feeling that he wants something from you. And yes, he does go undetected, or under the radar like many of you mentioned, but that's because he is not threatening at all. That is to say, obviously he is very average looking, so we wouldn't even seem him like a competitor. He does come across with a gay vibe, so women won't feel threaten by him either. However, that whole idea that if you make women think you're gay and later reveal to them that you're really not, that is honestly not going to get you anywhere. Once a woman has placed you in the gay box or the friend box, there is no climbing out of it.When you read this book, just read it like you would read any other fiction book. Let's think about this from the logical side. If he wanted to help out all the guys out there who can't get any, he wouldn't go on national television and reveal how to do it because women obviously would find out as well. It would be counterproductive because they would read the book and would call it on the spot when they feel there a guy is using Strauss's gimmicks. He's doing this for his own interest, he wants money in exchange for his writing, and I don't blame him for it. He never presents his book as a problem-solver, or as dating-manual. There's no "step 1, step 2." He narrates a fictitious story based on a true anecdote, much like Irvine Welsh's Trainspotting. When you get down to it, what most women nowadays want are guys that have something to offer. Whether it is money, looks, connections, being able to establish relationships with others easily, protection. That's how it is. Especially "high-maintenance" girls, you have got to have some of those qualities or it's not going to happen for you. When it comes to down-to-earth-girls, (a dying breed I must say) all you have to do is be pleasant, make them feel comfortable and don't try hard to impress them, you have to be so comfortable that they will feel comfortable being themselves, they open up to you, she bonds with you, and the result is incredible. That was the message, the moral, of this story, I mean, Strauss did end up with a down-to-earth girl that wouldn't put up with his gimmicks and just wanted a genuine person with whom she could feel comfortable being herself. He got laid by all those other girls in the night clubs because he pretended to be something else, pretended to have come of the things mentioned above. That's why pea cocking works, because when a girl sees a guy dressed ridiculous that usually means the guy has so much power, or money, or whatever, that he does not give a damn what anyone else is doing because he's above them. So they get closed to them, they sized them up, and determine whether they got something or not. So keep watching and commenting, but don't take this too seriously. Otherwise, tt would be like watching Shoot 'em Up and analyze it using ballistics.

Mystery mentored Style, and then they became at the same level, though different in their own right.A little like Muddy Waters mentored Buddy Guy.

Uberalan: I just read your "More Info" drop down and I must say that you're totally ignorant about PU. Please next time do more research before you comment on it. Also, Neil was a professional writer before all this happened to him and he also was a amateur comedian. Thank You

To flatten it out, e.g. openers (what you say when you approach a girl) has to be exclusive. And if this world was "discovered" all you would have to do is say is just improvise on something more exclusive. If everyone had this book and knew this stuff, it would just be one big competition and the girls would still want someone who was exclusive and attracts them - and this book is not about phrases - it's guidelines of a way to think and react to create and spot attraction. |
