Tao Of Steve

[darksprezzatura]

Its good to be back after months.

I wanted to share my opinion on this amazing, yet underrated movie called "Tao of Steve". It showed a fat underachieving kindergarten teacher who smokes pot all day utilise the three laws he called the Tao of Steve.

I was impressed how close it came to modern PUA considering its nearly 2 decades old.
I see a lot of desperate guys around, who even after taking the red pill do not ultimately understand the essence of how to get laid.

Tao of Steve perfectly encompassed redpill for beginners.

I found it rather refreshing that it revolves around just 3 basic laws and none of the complex routines all these mushrooming PUA artists created and draws from the teachings of Lao Tzu amongst others historical authors.

Tao of Steve says:
-Be Desireless
-Be Excellent
-Be Gone

It also explicity states that humans chase that which retreats.

I would recommend anyone looking for a visual foothold onto the redpill to see this movie even though it becomes blue-pill at the end.

Have fun.

There's nothing new under the sun. I've always said that I've heard most of the PUA ideas when I was growing up back in the 60s and 70s. They may have been expressed in a slightly different form, but they were there. What the community did was gather them all into one place. I don't recall hearing anything about "negs" though.

As for the movie, I've seen it, not bad, not great. The thing that sticks in my mind about it was on the end credits they sing this incredibly corny song which includes the line "It's time to give up the Tao of Steve" or something like that. Because he had found love and didn't need it anymore - the "blue pill" ending you were talking about.

I've seen it too, heard about it on this forum. It has been mentioned here a few times in the past. It does indeed display several PUA principles.

It's a fun movie. Interestingly it was directed and co-written by a woman.
Why is it that some of the most redpill movies and series are written by women? I'm especially thinking of "Mad Men".
