A duty to womankind

Sexual Intent Is a Duty Owed to Womankind
by Joseph Dantes

The PUA's journey from gamma to ALPHA is a long and winding one.

Beginning at gamma, he pedestalizes women in the worst BETA way, and exemplifies introversion and inversion (in the inward, not the homosexual sense) in sexuality and personality. He is afraid to express sexual intent.

PUA teaches him aggressive dogma, and he begins to take tentative miscalibrated steps, bold for him, alternatively sallying and panicking. This is still a long way from ALPHA, and may produce counterproductive results initially, but it is progress.

As he grows more jaded and practiced, he begins to see women in a different light. From wholly positive to wholly negative. Previous judgment reserved for unchaste women now extends to all of womankind, who become universally contemptible or (if he lacks conservative sexual mores) simply susceptible to and desirous of sex, indiscriminately. In a word, dirty filthy sluts.

Yet there is also fear in this. Women are a constant shit test. A test of his game. It's a test with a binary answer - would she (with him) or wouldn't she? Did she or didn't she? This feedback determines his self-evaluation, the metric by which he judges himself. Thus women still hold power - less perhaps than they did when he was a clueless gamma swooning with one-itis over 6's, since he now views them as interchangeable fuckholes. But still holding great power over his self-image, his self-esteem, his sense of progress, his soul.

So there is still this pattern of bold sallying and panicked scrambling retreat.

This can all be complicated further if the PUA still holds remnants of traditional conservative sexual mores. Those, which have been working against him from the beginning, will do their utmost to prevent him from becoming what he must, to achieve the final stage.

In the final stage, PUA practice is no longer a performance by which he measures his personality. He is what he is, regardless of external social feedback, not because he knows this is the optimal strategy, but because he is what he is. This is similar to the gamma, who also ignores external social feedback, stubbornly "being himself." But of course, no one would confuse a gamma with an ALPHA.

Enough foreplay, here's the principle:

"Women are happy and comfortable in the presence of ALPHA sexual intent."

It's like a magic switch. Doesn't matter what she's complaining about, what issues, what life circumstances, are floating about. Just flip the switch in yourself, and watch her instantly melt and glow.

Now keep in mind, this does NOT mean you have to ACTUALLY fuck her. Sexual intent is something akin to appreciation. But instead of the gamma's eunuch pedestalization, it's the direct and escalating yet coy flirtation of the ALPHA.

I repeat: You do NOT have to actually fuck her.

And that's why it's so powerful. Because you can do it without letting go of your morals. Or without the logistical inconvenience of actually becoming a sexaholic.

In fact, this principle is the foundation of those chivalrous social niceties, of good breeding, etc.

You should apply this to all women. Literally. Because women don't mature. They always need this validation, this appreciation, the currency their fair sex demands, without which the flower of the feminine soul withers and hardens into a bitter lump. And by the credibility of this threat, a demand becomes a right.

Thus, you MRA's, take note, a true feminist right, at last: The right to ALPHA sexual intent.

Dragon slaying

I see all manner of posts and thoughts about approximating the behavior of Alphas. I thought it would be far more useful to explain how Alphas become Alphas in the first place, and what you can do to train your sons, and yourselves, to be Alphas.

Do not approximate. Do or Do Not. There is no Approximate.

An insightful blogger here pointed out that the alpha ego, enormous as it is, is based in reality. The alpha's positive self-image and confidence are the direct result of what? It comes from success. But success at what? Well... that's the important question. It has to be what people consider... real. Business... sport... music... art... anything.... almost. Video game success is going to help you out with your geek clique but the rest of the world just doesn't give a crap about your latest World of Warcraft raid. If you want to move up the social ladder, you do that not by aping behavior., but by growing into an interesting person. Now, I hear the Gammas hissing already. I know, I know... you are interesting and if everyone else was just smarter they'd see how amazing you really are. You gammas are free to stop reading now, as for the most part, you're utterly hopeless. A pox on you.

But you omegas... you low deltas... you're the ones I'm really talking to. Look, you don't need therapy dudes. You need a life. That's not an insult, its a pathway. Its advice. Let me 'splain.

Alphas are always described as the center of attention, telling loud self-aggrandizing stories. Well... what if they had no stories? What if the stories weren't true? They wouldn't be alphas, would they? That is the very difference between alphas and omegas and deltas. Alphas are interesting, and they have reality-based self-confidence that stems from challenges bested.

Men have been denied challenge their whole lives. You've had no adventures. What have you done? When you look back on your life to this point, what makes you smile and say "wow that was something most people haven't done"? If the answer is "I have a level 80 Undead Death Knight" then congratulations, you're a delta or more likely an omega. If your answer is, "Well... I climbed Kilimanjaro and one night in Stockholm I kicked Izzy Stradlin's ass" then you're probably an alpha.

Ah, but you say, "Dude I can't afford to go to Africa and Sweden's weird."

You're right. But you don't start at the top. You start at the bottom... and the basis of all self confidence is accomplishment. So pick a challenge and go meet it. Don't just meet it, destroy it. Crush it. Learn mountain climbing. Learn to rappel. Learn sky diving or scuba diving. If that isn't your style, then build something. Learn wood working and build things with your own hands and when the products are finished, they will stare back at you and the excellence before you will be an external proof of your own worth. You don't need to stand in front of a mirror and recite any stupid self affirmations. The proof is right there. There was no sturdy, well-built table and now there is. The very table itself looks at you and says, "you're good enough, you're smart enough, and dog gone it, people like you."

You know this is true. You know it because you tasted it when you setup that pretty girl's DSL modem for her. It wasn't her attention that fed you. It was your accomplishment and the fact that however small your contribution was, there was real, externally verified value there. Now imagine if you hadn't done a geeky thing like that. Craftwork is the elementary school for self-confidence, friends. Start with your hands. If you've already surpassed that level of self confidence, then its time to move on to adventure. Go places. See things. Do. Go and Do. If you're not an extrovert, that's fine. Go alone. In fact, in a lot of ways that makes you cooler. Sigmas are alphas whose challenges are largely bested alone.

The difference in natural-born alphas and you is that we were born with this burning desire to challenge ourselves, and in our minds we never fail. Never. We never fail because we never quit. As a child I would hear my friends say, "I can't do that." and it sounded absolutely alien to me. I would think "what do you mean you can't do it? Have you tried? Have you worked at it really hard for days on end?"

It's bollocks.

What one man can do, another can do.

So get off your ass and do it. Live, dammit! You're a man. The world may not provide you with dragons to slay, but you'll die if you don't. So create your own dragons and crush them. Crush them, dammit, and their carcasses will feed your soul and their blood will fill your heart... and a pretty girl will seem about as threatening as the dried leaves of fall you crush under your feet without a second thought.

So... what are you gonna do?

Signaling Theory

This is a guest post contributed by Le Cygne Gris.

Why routines?

Perhaps one of the nastier criticisms hurled at the practitioners and purveyors of Game is that the routines suggested and then put into practice demonstrate its artificiality. Essentially, the argument is that Game can’t be true because it is a conscious, overt application.

While it is true that application of Game is often intentional and overt, it does not follow that the fundamental insights of Game are incorrect. Ultimately, though, Game is nothing more than a specific application of signaling theory.

Signaling theory is a branch of economics that arose in order to explain why people didn’t behave with perfect rationality. What economists quickly discovered, however, is that people were, in fact, behaving quite rationally, but the signals that economists observed were quite removed from their eventual consequences.

The classic example of this phenomenon is that of education: the reason why some students went to college wasn’t simply because they wanted to learn more about the world surrounding them, but rather because they wanted to demonstrate to employers that they were well qualified to be hired for specific jobs.

Now, one could take the principles of signaling theory and apply them to one’s educational choices in an overt and conscious manner. For example, if one wanted to be an astronaut, he would do well to major in astrophysics and participate in sports, since astronauts must be in shape and be quite intelligent. This would signal to potential employers that he was quite serious about becoming an astronaut. It is, then, quite ludicrous to claim that making an obvious and overt application of signaling theory invalidates its existence, principles, or conclusions. In fact, just the opposite is true: deliberate application of signaling theory, when successful, validates its claims.

The same is true for Game. Routines and sets give men a way to field test the validity of the core principles and tenets of Game. If men successfully apply the tenets of Game, then they know that it is correct. (Note that testing Game by attempting a routine requires that one not botch the routine in order for the results to be considered valid. This is a general principle of the scientific method, and certainly applies here.)

But routines offer men more than just a way to validate the claims made by proponents of Game. It also offers men keen insight into the mind of an Alpha, for routines are more than just lines, they also encompass delivery and choreography. In order for a routine to work, a man must, much like an method actor, adopt the mind of that which he wishes to embody.

Routines are therefore useful in enabling a man to become a better man. As a man adopts the mindset of an Alpha, he becomes aware of how an Alpha moves, how he talks, how he interacts with others, what he thinks of others. And as a man does this, he becomes more and more in tune with the workings of the Alpha mind, until one day he is no longer able to distinguish between his Alpha persona and his “normal” persona. In essence, he fakes it until he makes it.

And thus, contra to the claims of haters and heretics, routines do not invalidate Game. On the contrary, they offer men a chance to test the truth for themselves. And in doing so, they allow men to become the men they are destined to be.
