Recently I read a book called ?The Game? which is a discussion of the
psychological techniques pick up artists use when trying to approach
groups, which they call ?sets?. Most people would find the book just
full of funny anecdotes and insane ideas, but as I am impressionable
by what I read to the point of being feeble minded, I spent BlackHat
with phrases like ?AMOG? in the back of my head at all times.
To sum the theories in the book up, you pick up a woman by becoming
the alpha male of whatever group she is a part of. In other words,
picking up women is not about the woman, it's about you and your place
in society.
This reminded me of something and I just found out what: When Genghis Khan wanted to conquer a tightly-fortified city, he used to take the orbiting villages first. The people would flee to the citadel. The city, being unready for these masses economically and otherwise, got much easier to pressure. The Game really is eye-opening, though
