Chock full of Hamsterism and PUA vernacular, this list is exactly why I have much more fun gaming women abroad. Among the highlights:
Despite the article being mostly full of crap, there were a couple of points of value:
4. Don't leave your sexuality at the door
Women will forgive you for being a dick; they will never forgive you for being a pussy...carry on, gentlemen...

10. Don't neg
This regretful trend in pick up is more than just obnoxious -- it's obnoxious and obvious. Negging, also known as "negative comments," is praised by pick up artists everywhere, based on the assumption that negging a woman forces her to try to "prove" herself. This, in turn, supposedly puts the man in the power position, so he can get her to "do the work" rather than have to prove himself to her.
Does it work? Sure. The question is: who does it work on?
It works on women still constantly seeking love and approval from the world, from a substitute father figure, or from themselves.

7. Don't get handsy
Unless it's obvious that I'm really into you, stop touching my lower back, elbow or shoulders. It's not that this is unpleasant; it's just that it's so obvious that this is something else you read in Pickup 101.
Seriously? I just told you I'm a sex and dating coach. Do you really think I haven't read The Game?
It's *literally* my job.

There have been a remarkable number of men apparently hitting on me, who I only realized later were attempting to do so. I've been stunned -- stunned -- to discover that they were interested in me sexually. Bottom line, guys: if you aren't owning and feeling your sexuality, I'm not gonna feel it.
I think a lot of men suppress the fact that they want to fuck because they want to make women "feel comfortable." The problem is, flirting and sex appeal are by definition slightly uncomfortable. That's why it's called sexual tension. How many times have you heard a girl say, "It was so hot how I was in my comfort zone the whole time I was around him..."?
The truth is, you making me feel comfortable will usually make me so "comfortable" that I miss the fact that you're dtf. Because when you act all buddy buddy with me, I assume you just want to be my buddy.
Nobody wants to fuck Mr. Nice Guy. So stop being him if you want to fuck.

I have mad respect for men who hit on women -- you're 20 times better than the guy who stands in the corner and does nothing. Even if you do everything wrong, I salute you for being a man.
