Definitely bro, especially these myspace thread by that idiot skiptomylou, that guy is the worst. but then thread about looks are stupid.

 

[Francisco d'Anconia]

Like I said and others said before me, if they believe that looks is the be all and end all to sarging, why spam a forum that focuses on social interaction?

how stupid is THIS thread?? i would say there are 10 threads either like this, or someone else whining like a baby for every looks thread out there. I only know of 1 active looks thread, and its in the Archive. What other looks threads do you see???? (I only remember 1 that was created by some loser as a joke)

"all the damn looks threads" - THERE IS ONLY ONE!!

Amen, I think we should get back to what this forum was designed for in the first place.

We should be helping each other out, not trying to put people off with discouraging posts.

The posts that say "looks are required" are not evil posts that put people off and discourage them. THis is a big misconception you people are making out of them. THey are actually helping people. Providing someone with true information will really help them out if theyre stuck with innacurate information.

With more accurate information, they will be better fit to make decisions that will actually improve themselves. If you find that looks are required, then you would know to make the decision to improve in that area. If you didnt have this information, you wouldnt know to improve in that area, and you would be stuck with poor results, becuase you would be focusing on improving a trait that doesnt matter that much.

I would say that by NOT making those kinds of posts, we are not doing our duty as don juans posting in this forum. One thing we should be doing is helping eachother, which you point out, one way to do that is by providing true, accurate, and useful information. By trying to censor or block the "looks posts", you are denying people accurate and useful information, this is the opposite of help. alot of people are ignorant about somethings, you have to create threads that show them the light which may be controversial. either way, its for everyones own good to have these kinds of posts, accurate and useful information comes out of it, which will be used to help people.

I think many people may have come to the internet researching how to get girls despite not being good looking, and hence found this site.

This is why so many looks threads start up. This is not a bad thing, as this site gives honest advice, where-as every other site on the net is just trying to sell books/etc to guys like me, saying "looks don't matter", which is not true.

However I do agree its pretty pointless having a 70-page thread arguing about it, maybe a sticky somewhere summarizing good points. Plus new comers posting "do looks matter" so be advised to search.

When it comes down to this "Looks matter" argument we need to consider mind-state over whether or not this statement is true; moreover that it is purely subjective. If in the back of your mind you are thinking "Looks matter" when talking to girls it is going to hurt your confidence because you feel inadequate to what you believe is what the girl really wants, thus affecting the outcome of your success. Dressing well and practicing proper hygiene is a must to make you stand out and improve your confidence but is not as important in the big picture as improving your inner game and being able to provide a woman something that you aren't simply born with (looks).

Since you can't really change that aspect it is more important to shift focus from looks to personality traits like character, charm, wittiness, whatever seperates you from the dozens of chumps that a girl gets attention from on a daily basis. I see lots of unattractive women who will say they are smart, friendly, faithful and all sorts of things that don't matter much to us guys simply because their looks DO matter to most of us. Personally I'll take a cute girl that has a good personality and smarts over a superficial hot girl simply because I have a reason to talk to the cute girl and the hot one just annoys me after a while. IMO you can't have Looks without Personality or vice versa if your standards won't allow it. Criticism welcome.

its very very important to note that developing game and personality while remaining an outta shape weird looking slob will do NOTHING for you. "Looks threads" are just there to remind you that working out, making your body desirable, looking sexy is a very key component in completely being a don juan.

2 guys who have the same suave personality. One is average, the other is lean, tan, has nice hair, and has an overall great look to him. Who do you think will do better with women?

YOU NEED ALL THE PEICES TO THE PUZZLE.

I've seen average looking/chubby guys get really cute and attractive girls. It happens, and it's not that rare. And it happens much more than the other way around (good looking guys with ugly girls). Mental traits are more important than physical traits, end of f*cking debate FOR THE REST OF ETERNITY, CLOSE THREAD.

 

[Tazman]

Ever wonder why a "looks" thread creates such heated debates? No one ever just simply ignores it and lets it die do they?

It's because part of us knows it matters a lot more than we'd like to think. That's why we'll point out rare cases of seemingly "mismatched" people together. It gives us hope that it doesn't matter as long as our game is tight, but I know that in "general" this mindset does not reflect what I see in my everyday life.

I'm a pretty reserved guy, I don't go out cold approaching or anything and I have "zero" game (as far as being smooth and talking to women I don't know). I don't have a lot of money, I love video games and I'm living in a small apartment with a roomate. Yet, there are women out there who are attracted to me.

One day I approached one, I was nervous and I know it had to show. In a nutshell I ended up hooking up with her, which I hadn't done with anyone in quite a while (I'm talking years). How could this have happened given my situation? My only explanation is she must have been attracted to my appearance, therefore she was very receptive to me and allowed me to follow through even though I wasn't the smoothest guy out there. I honestly put forth very little effort, and she pretty much took the wheel (once I made it known that I liked her).

I don't know, you tell me, how does this happen if looks aren't that important?

Out of curiosity, beyond the initial attraction, how long do these women hang around after finding out your "zero game," lack of funds, having a roommate and the rest of your self description?

 

[Tazman]

The women I got IOI's from but didn't approach either stop giving the IOI's altogether or continue to do it but tone it down, maybe hoping I'll give in one day. The one I hooked up with is still around (a couple of months), granted, when I get comfortable with someone I'm more social and probably more interesting because I'm relaxed. My biggest problem has always been getting into this relaxed state before I get to know the person, I mean it seems impossible sometimes.

I've also become a sort of mysogynist, which is another topic, but it helps me deal with any BS that any chick tries to give me. I just don't see them the way I used to, I think this attitude is partially why my current woman is still around. I try and show the real me in the beggining so there's no misunderstanding later on, I am who I am, they can take it or leave it. I've overcome some major hurdles in doing this because I've had insecurities about my body since I was a teenager. If this woman didn't find me attractive I absolutely wouldn't be in this position.
