I think this argument is stupid and pointless.
First of all, there are *many* ways to "pick up" women, varying from unoriginal, scripted material to completely original improv. Before we could even have a debate on this, we would have to define exactly what type of pick up we're talking about.
Secondly, there are many motivations behind picking up women. It can range from genuinely wanting to form a long term relationship and get married to simply looking for a one night stand.
Third, there are morals and ethics involved that we would need to define. It varies from guys that lie, take advantage of drunk chicks, play the numbers game, and brag to their buddies to guys who are honest, moral, don't kiss and tell, and never take advantage of girls in even the slightest way.
Having a super strong opinion one way or the other on this is truly not keeping an open mind.
