Never again.
I don't care if I come across as a psycho. You invade my personal zone I will growl, hiss, then rip your flesh off with my teeth if I have to.
No one will take advantage of me again. EVER.
I reckon if more women didn't care what others thought of them, PUAs would have a much harder time (I mean, try picking up a girl when you're covered in scars from the last girl you tried to pick up...).
unless of course it is your crush... right?
Or someone I have previously cleared to touch me.
Once you have clearance from me to touch me I don't bite (unless you say please).
So what you are really saying is, that you actually like guys to seduce you, only if you like them. Don't you think that makes you shallow, just like guys would give special attention to women if they like them?
Not sure what your point is here.
She's supposed to let herself be seduced by someone she doesn't like or else she's shallow?
He's saying that girls who selectively accept seduction by some guys are like the guys who selectively act nice only with certain girls.
"Acting nice" is the same as "seduction?" Still not following.........
If a girl was putting seduction moves on me that I wasn't receptive to, rejecting her would be shallow? It honestly sounds like you guys are just making up double standards here to justify your indignation..........
No, he was saying that accepting her seduction moves just because she's hot is shallow.
He's equating that to selective niceness.
So I was interpretting it correctly then.........
He thinks a girl not letting a guy f**k her because she's not interested him is equal to a guy who is only nice to pretty girls.
I guess I was just dumbfounded by how sexist and stupid the argument was that I assumed I misinterpretted. Boo, Please PLEASE tell me you don't believe that nonsense. You're way smarter than that........
No, I don't think they're to be equated.
Besides, I am selectively nice... I am not nice with jerks :p

Because "being personable to someone" is just the same as "letting someone stick their dick in you". Of course.
Honestly, I don't think Stalk meant that girls should allow themselves to be seduced by everyone. We're talking seduction in Shau story's context which sounds more like predatory harassment (putting hand on leg while he still barely knows her).
My personal opinion in the matter that sexual harassment shouldn't be seen as less harassment just because the guy is hot; and him being hot shouldn't be seen as safer.

No one can tell how far would it be.
Maybe she called you because he turned out really threatening - Or, the more logical explanation that she called you because she freaked out that you may say something to her husband.
I don't think guilt was the reason.
Ok, first off, I think sex is healthy and fun, and there are many women who enjoy it without neccessarily wanting a LTR. Our society is very judgemental of player vs. slut, virgin/mother/whore, so women a lot of times feel guilty about indulging their sexual urges. s**t's complicated.
Step 1. Be attractive. Take care of you appearance, eat well, work out, hair cut helps.
Go somewhere girls are looking for boys. AKA parties, bars, the park, coffee shop, book store, etc. Be available.
If a girl is looking at you, there are two options: she is attracted to you, or she isn't.
step 2. smile. She will look away, this is what girls do. If she looks at you again
step 3. wink. Try to judge reaction. She will prolly look away again. That's normal. If she steals a look back at you again, chances are VERY high that she thinks you are cute.
step 4. walk over and say Hi, what's your name?
step 5. Ask her questions about herself. I always just ask "Do you like Karaoke?" Everyone has opinion about it good or bad. Listen. Women like you talk about themselves. Listen to her, is she interesting? Follow up with "what song do you like to sing?" do you practice in the shower? Got any dance routine? or whatever. Key is to ask her questions, and listen to her... NOT lecture her about something. If she talks about something you know about, tell a joke or a short story THAT IS RELATED TO WHAT SHE WAS TALKING ABOUT. Emphasis on SHORT story, that will make her laugh.
step 6. make her laugh! Key to attracting women. When she laughs, touch her arm. Judge reaction. If she pulls away, she is not into you. If she touches you back, she wants the D.
step 7. You are cool. We should hang out. Here is my number.
either she will call you (she wants the D), or she won't (not that into you)
THE END. Women want assertive men. If you do not let a woman know you are attracted to her immediately, she thinks you are weak. Women say they want sensitive men, but they want assertive, aggressive ones.
So what I'm understanding from what people are saying in this thread, a man successfully seducing a woman using PUA tactics, and the woman agreeing to have sex with him, is rape?
If that's the case, a woman wearing revealing clothes or doing something else that turns men on must be raping a man.
The reality is that there's a whole spectrum, with one end being rape, and one end being total consent. These guys were being coercive, deceitful, and "assertive" enough to prompt my friend to whisper a concerned "[Shau] don't go home tonight" into my ear. I think that starts to make some serious headway into the "rape" end of that spectrum.

Those girls were enjoying themselves but felt guilty about it so they pretended that they were concerned. I hate it when people act like that.
If they were genuinely put off by those guys they could've just ignored them or left the party.
If I were their friend and had been there I would've called them out on it.
Its always funny to me that westernised women will find 1000 reasons to f**k some random loser but. When it comes to being a good wife and mother though no cant think of anything but bad decisions. The OPs post just shows that women love being put in bad situations and when in those situations because of the culture here in the west are almost encouraged to make bad decisions now. Women are taught that their emotions are important and never wrong when 95% of the time it exactly the opposite. Women and men both have been so socially messed up and taught to do everything wrong in the west but people are staring to come to their senses thank god.

Exactly what I have been saying but I don't think any of them was feeling guilty, the married felt "guilty" because she was caught by Shau and his reaction scared her (ie. omg he's gonna tell hubby!).
I am glad to see another female user who's not throwing all the blame on the guys.

and she went for him.
So if your gf cheats on you and then tells you "sorry he was so smooth talker and the situation and ambiance made me to sit on his lap and my hand in his pants" would that make the cheat ok?
Leafplant claims that society is responsible for that, do American parents applause if some someone kisses forcefully their daughter and touches her boobs in front of them and would they punish her and call her rude if she slaps him? I think not.
Does Leafplant really claim that? Let's take this to the European court of human rights and debate it there.
Your insistence of twisting the words of everyone around to suit your point is quite despicable.
Leafplant made her point - which was to say that it is impossible to be sure what the situation and feelings and intents of people were based on an observation of third party given in a short paragraph on the internet.
In Shau's story there were at least three women. Which one are you referring to?
I twisted no words, you were clearly justifiying this woman's actions in the previous posts by blaming how society raises girls, you weren't talking about the situation pressure then, you were saying that usually it's impossible for women to push away such PUAs (guys who put their hands on legs at first meet up) because "others" would label them bitchy and rude (??!).
KJAS, who are those others?? who are "they"?? You still avoided to answer that.

Yeah finally, some real equality for a change.
I wonder if the white knights have anything to say now, since they always crop up when it is time to defend the "weaklings". Cause that is all they are really proving.

Don't get me wrong, if they were like "I know what I'm getting into and I'm enjoying it", then I'd be like, "you go girl".
The pretending part and them trying to impose their responsibility on others (i.e. the OP) I'd have problem with.
If they were actually naive and inexperienced, I'd tell them "Those guys are trying to get in your pants, proceed with caution, you've been warned, you're a grown woman, be responsible for your own actions."
