I don't get all the hate Mystery gets on here. His methods work for him and the people he's taught so good for him. Sure we have our own style and prefer a less formulaic approach, but Roosh's style still owes something to the foundations Mystery laid down. Mystery probably owes something to Ross Jeffries etc etc.
Agreed. For me personally Mystery is still the man and I've learnt more from his book then anyone else in the 'Game' world. In fact nobody comes close to breaking it down like Mystery did. The Mystery Method book gave me the confidence to go out armed with some skills that took me from being an introverted shy beta who could not get laid in a whorehouse to being someone who friend's consider 'good' with women. A lot of his concepts have come to be seen as outdated and you have to adapt his ideas to your own personality but as a bedrock of knowledge to get you to a stage where you no longer need to use it Mystery is the man.
I would cringe at being called a PUA,if I heard anyone refer to themselves as that in my company I'd think they were pretentious twats. I'm 100 times more then someone who just tries to bang women,I'm a photographer,a journalist,a writer,a father,a linguist,a businessman,a traveller etc. before I am a PUA of some sort. Picking up women is just something I do whilst I'm engaging in more defining activities.
