I was reading a website called “Return of Kings” that awkwardly tries to promote both being a TradCon and a PUA. The only thing those two lifestyles have in common is that they put women first and self-freedom second. If they can’t make up their mind, I’m not sure I want their advice. Anyway, when in PUA mode, this website promotes playing “game” so that women will sleep with you. I’ve always been good at learning things. I have good social skills and think fast. It should be pretty easy for me. Yet I can’t imagine doing this.
Why not? I like neither the means nor the end.
The means require taking and passing s~~~ tests. I can do that, but that’s not fun for me. I like interacting with other people who are kind, respectful, and interesting. Someone who is s~~~-testing me is none of the above. I think what really bothers me about this is that even “passing” a s~~~ test is still ceding independence to the tester. I have allowed the s~~~-tester to test me, to disrespect me, and to waste my valuable time. I’m too cool for school. I’m not sitting for any tests. I’m not going to do anything just to win a woman’s approval. Not for one minute. As soon as I do that, I sacrifice my integral whole to women’s whims. I become a half-person, with an identity based on what women “want,” not what I want. No way.
Also, if you really want to play game correctly, you really have to be more than just bluster. You have to have flashy stuff to make yourself seem “high status.” This requires slaving more hours, buying stuff you don’t really want… wait a minute, this sounds like marriage. Maybe that’s why ROK is both PUA and TradCon!
Anyway, maybe I’d put up with all of the above means if the end was worthwhile. Sadly, it is even worse.
The end: sex. Worthwhile? Rarely. For sex to be enjoyable requires not only a good-looking woman, but one who is skilled in the art. How many women are really skilled? Even when it is a good experience, it is like a few moments of pleasure as compared to the time commitment to play the game. So, we have something that is hardly worthwhile.
What’s worse, there are big four risks that make sex disastrous.
1) Pregnancy: Well, that’s just game over. Financial ruin. Total loss of independence. Unfavorable custody. And the only “protection” available to me as a man gives only about a 90% chance of success. Am I playing Russian Roulette with one in ten chambers containing a bullet? No.
2) False rape accusations: I’d like to think that the system would work out, but even if I were eventually vindicated, how much ruin would there be to my career and reputation?
3) STDs: A lifetime of pain or even an early death seems like something to avoid at all costs.
4) Stalkers, mental cases, etc.: I don’t know these women that I’d be picking up in bars, and I sure as heck don’t want to put up with their mental problems. Maybe this can be avoided by going back to her place, or whatever, but why risk it?
So, I could spend my time engaging in ridiculous social gamesmanship, so that I can get a quite possibly unsatisfactory experience that could ruin my life 4 different ways! Or I can pursue the many things that make life worthwhile for me. Those guys at ROK think they’re hot s~~~, but they’re just as much slaves to women’s whims as any “beta” guy they would mock. Wow, so they can have sex! So can the most worthless guys in this society. Try achieving something lasting and meaningful.
The only advice worth taking on the internet comes from Keymaster. The only way to live is MGTOW.
