| I highly doubt that sly and others here are actually on those forums. They are normal-adjusted people and not crazy like the folks that post in those forums. Also, suggesting that they may have borders very scarily on false accusation and alienating the guys posting here. My question is whether the... |

| Re: the video posted by hurtloam, documenting extreme anti-woman sentiments by some men in the "Incel" community: At around 2:43, we are shown something which says: If you don't sleep with a woman within 15 minutes of meeting her, you're ugly. That's how fast women f**k a guy they find sex... |

| Niantic of Pokémon Go fame voiced its support of Autism Speaks in a tweet the other day. https://twitter.com/nianticlabs/status/1054569879980924933?s=21 It would be very helpful to newcomers (like me) if someone could post a good, concise yet reasonably comprehensive, annotated, UP-TO-DATE summary ... |

| "Toxic" is a rather vague word. Too often, I suspect, it gets used as an excuse to abandon someone who might be needy or moody but otherwise a good and loyal friend. With such a person, it may be necessary to set firm boundaries, but not a good idea to kick that person out of one's life en... |

| As it stands currently, at least in the US, the fear of even being accused of raping or sexually assaulting a woman is so extreme that it is turning thousands upon thousands of terrified young men into MGTOWs. [...] I was laughing at the idea that thousands of poor, terrified young men are fleeing ... |

| Most of the basic core stuff (posture, voice, style, conversation steering, eye contact, etc.) can also be carried over and applied with success in making small talk with cashiers, job interviews (I've owned interviews for jobs that I was in no way qualified for, even once getting hired as a school... |

Family court and divorce laws? I replied to another remark of yours about that here . I would appreciate it if you could rep... |

| I think self-improvement is good up to a point. Also, some kinds of self-improvement are better than others. I do NOT think it's good to put so much effort into conformity to social norms, and/or remediating one's weaknesses, that one does not have enough energy left over to develop one's strengths.... |

This is both a cultural and legal issue (namely that men routinely get bent over and destroyed in family court when divorce is initiated) but I would say that the leg... |

I like this idea. Do you know of anyone trying to bring it about in any kind of organized fashion? |

| Scipio's post at the top of page 2 reads a lot like a PUA manifesto. :eew: BLECCH!! Doesn't seem that way to me. He does say most men want longterm relationships, and his advice is given with that end in mind. I do think (for reasons already voiced in my reply above) that his advice would not have ... |
