I think many of the techniques are about convincing "the artist" no the subject.

Some of the technique are about communication, and appealing to basic wants and needs. However this can be done in a way that isn't so douchey.

As another user pointed out you don't need PUAs to learn social skills.

Hello, I'm a writer for Vice.com and I'm looking for stories about men or women on the spectrum who've employed the use of PUA techniques to assist them socially or romantically! Are you familiar with the "game?" Have you applied the principles to your own life, and if so, have you found that they've worked or helped at all? I'd love to interview you.

I've written about pickup artists for Vice before, if you're interested, but it won't let me post a link so just google "lola blanc" and "pickup artists."

This would be a sympathetic piece that would attempt to demonstrate why pickup can actually be useful or helpful with those who experience social challenges. Please let me know! :)


First of all, get permission. If PUA is raped themed. Then you need to gtfo. I hope someone removes you and blocks you from coming here. PUA accounts sicken me.

I also doubt that you actually work for Vice.

you need permission from the site admin to trawl and post here for article or research purposes.

we try not to advocate pickup artistry on this forum.

Generally writers are free to post requests on the forums. Although it is better if they try to become a part of the community.

As far as "pickup artistry" we don't really have a problem with people posting about it. I am sure it has been helpful for many members to learn skills related to talking to women and getting a girlfriend. We even have a Wrong Planet video tutorial with tips on how to flirt.
