True. You've entered new territory Steve!

Now to be read by millions of sexists and/or misogynists. This article is a big hit at the site I go to already.

I see thousands of visitors from such sites in my traffic logs every month. Most of the PUA stuff I've seen online seems a bit low on the consciousness scale though, so it isn't something I care to write about directly.
Steve it's because guys are looking for something. Women being important, they think women are the answer. So they may learn from PUAs and think that's the answer, but eventually, the truth comes out and they start realizing it's about authentic self-confidence, and masculinity, a sense of SELF.

So they graduate from the PUA stuff to sites like this that are about how to BE a great person, not how to trick people into thinking you are one.
