Genetic Match Theory (of Game)

I don't know if Doug McGuff's HIT methods work or not, however there are a lot of really skinny nerds now warning you of overtraining and talking about how training once a week is best for your body because of people like him now.

Your post above is not trollish in and of itself but the pattern of posts you have created combined with the lack of value you have added to the forum while having a high post count has troll written all over it.
Yeah he just doesn't fit in here at all. Now he's spouting "a man is the same as a woman" stuff? As though we're attracted by the same things? This after his foreign vs American girl bullshit, I'd go as far as to say he's the stealthiest feminist we've had yet.
He's basically against everything we stand for and believe in, if you look at some of the things he says. Before I think I called him a "failed member", but you might be right in that he's just an under-the-radar slow-burning troll.

Phoenix mentioned that intelligence, energy, charisma, social skills and drive etc have genetic aspects. The fact of the matter is that the only thing of those that has a genetic component to it is intelligence. Things like energy, charisma, social skills etc are influenced by the individuals environment rather than its genetics. Of course we have a thing called epigenetics but that is poorly understood and most likely doesn't affect ones charisma or social skills. A very social, funny and charismatic person isn't that way because of their genes, they are that way because the environment they grew up in encouraged that behaviour. Young children adapt extremely well to their environment and the behaviours they see early on in their lives greatly influence their personalities later on in life. People who come from a big, loud and social family tend to be loud and social aswell.
Those aspects
are actually affected by genetics.

Those studies seem to say it's about half-half. The thing is, genetics are foundational, and "always on". If you're genetically-influenced to be more neurotic or introverted, you or your family may be able to stretch that, but by that time the extrovert guy is already off in the distance.
This is exactly where the talk of "naturals" comes from. Naturals are just naturally extroverted and open guys who learned game instinctively through rapid and subtle trial and error and high sensitivity to social tells/feedback.

Interesting theory, actually makes some sense though I can see how it can be construed as game denialism.
Also, never understood the policing types on this forum, always trying to sniff out trolls. Probably hitting the report every 10 seconds. It's a forum for chrissakes, go out and enjoy life and "add value" there once you're done posting your opinion.
