Just say no. Much of that stuff isn't self-help. It's manipulation, "games", using women, and deception. It teaches a mindset of trickery and lies, and if you buy into it, you start believing women must also be this sneaky.
Here is the flaw in the logic: guys get into it because they don't have the confidence to approach women on their own. So the guy perfect the act and plays his role perfectly -- and the girls talk to him. But no matter how many women he meets, it's the ACT not the real man that they're responding to.
And as a female myself: I can spot the act a mile away. I may play along and smile and think it's cute, but I've never let a guy who is "running game" go home with me. I don't have time for fake people. "Players" are the reason why so many of us women avoid talking to strangers or give out real phone numbers in the first place.
