Bad posture is caused by weak and/or tight muscles, especially in the core area, which I can imagine would be a problem if you're trying to move heavy objects around. I've heard of guys injuring themselves - sometimes badly enough to have to quit doing squats, DL, etc.- from weightlifting...

Religion is worse than just anti-sex dogma; there's all the anti-self and anti-reality dogma as well. Besides, conventional secular thinking has just as much anti-sex dogma (at least for heterosexual men) and anti-self dogma as religion does ... so it's not religion per se that's bad for you...

In any for-profit business, profit always comes first. For little things, this isn't a big deal, but for big, important things, it produces a conflict of interest. Would you want to go to a hospital where, at any moment, they can refuse to treat you because they're not making as much money...

If there are lost causes here, I'd say to them that it's better to have no-one than someone who doesn't please you. Is meeting society's expectations really worth all their crap?

I'm always looking for fulfillment because it's the one thing I've never experienced. Everything feels like a duty to me, and it usually is because nothing is ever what I expect and I usually have too much at stake or have already put too much in to justify quitting. I've always thought that...

Teaching guys how to be social is easy: general guidelines of what to do and what not to do, illustrated by real-world examples. True, you can't get experience from reading posts, but who is expecting this? What is hard, and IMO what both the newbies and the veterans keep stumbling over, is...

I disagree. The way I see it, it's not that they're not interested in what we're selling - or else they wouldn't even be here - it's that they're really, really cheap. In my mind, if they're scared of anything, they're scared of the high price of greatness. How do you sell something to a cheap...

Disrespect is a sign of dominance ... who but a very high status man could get away with it without trouble? I think it's an instinctive response. So long as the behavior is genuine and not an act, even if the other guy has nothing going for him, people will not only put up with him but seek...

Why is it that only a handful of those who come here ever actually do anything with what they learn? What's wrong with the rest and how can it be fixed?

I shave because my facial hair sucks. Most of it's on my neck instead of my face. It isn't very dense, so no matter how long I let it grow, you can still see through it down to my skin. It grows in patches that don't connect to each other. And worst of all, it looks and feels just like...

The guys who leave here are those who realize that this site can only fix a problem of ignorance, it can't fix the bigger problem of unwillingness. You can come here and learn everything there is to know about seduction and self-improvement, but until you apply that knowledge - either through...

I set the bar so high that it's impossible to get over. Having expectations that I know I (and the world) can't fulfill is killing my motivation. Not only do I demand more of myself than I can deliver, but I demand so much from the experience itself that it can't help but disappoint me no...

Even if you don't have a problem with the toxic glycoalkaloid compounds in raw potato, you still have to cook your potatoes. Your body can't digest raw potato - the starch molecules are too large and complex. Cooking breaks them apart into simpler forms that your body can absorb.

Man, I've wanted to ask this question for a long time. I'm in the same position. After coming to this site, I understand women far better than I understand men. I've been the scrawny little nerd all my life, so I've always been very intimidated by other men and avoided them, so I never learned...

If it weren't for this, I wouldn't even be here. I'm already 22 and have done nothing with my life. I still often feel like it's too late, that since I won't have real money or an awesome body or any of these things until I'm in my 30s, and by then I'll be too old to take advantage of it...

They're just unwilling to make the effort.

I don't claim to know anything about fighting, but I would think that something like this would be the ideal style. To disable or kill your opponent as quickly as possible is probably the best way to keep yourself alive and - ideally - uninjured. If real fights aren't usually one-on-one...

My dreams are always about weird sh!t happening in some bizzare world, all of which seems perfectly normal. I'm always trying to get somewhere. I'm sometimes trying to find or do something as well. Sometimes I have to make something important happen, or stop something bad from happening (but...

Women like bad boys because they're far closer to being real men than mild-mannered wage slaves or pvssy-whipped emo kids could ever be. Not only do they do as they please, but they're usually tough enough to handle whatever comes their way as a result. In fact, I think that bad boys are the...

I've wanted to know how to deal with other guys for a long time. The main reason I've always avoided them is because I've never known the rules. I was always afraid I'd screw up somehow and piss them off. Me too. I always thought of respect in terms of Godfather stuff, or how soldiers treat...
