The Contradictious & Limiting Beliefs Plaguing our Community:

An honest moment of self-reflection can sometimes yield great benefits for development; both in the game of women and in the game of life - not that they are mutually exclusive.
As a long-time reader of the board, it is obvious that a certain level of groupthink permeates throughout this community. In an unfortunate end, we oftentimes become the very entities we bemoan: self-rationalizing, delusional human beings.

Please allow a moment of introspective reflection on the following points; see if any apply to you:

1. Many members here believe that by virtue of having male genitalia, that they are "men". This notion that we are "all men" who must re-claim our glory and capture our masculinity is widely disseminated on this board and it could not be further from the truth. Many here, possess very few qualities as a "man" or even as human beings. Rather, a silent majority trudge along in their "game" with a misguided sense of superiority over the other "players" in the field - the truth is, that you are likely not better than the next guy and even worse, you ARE the "next guy".

2. The foundational cause of this problem is the idea that we are inherently "high value" as a man and that any women would be blessed with divine intervention to have met you - once again, this is delusional. If you are overweight, in a dead-end job, unkept - then no, you are not "high value". Furthermore, your lack of effort in self-improvement denotes a certain ignorance to your state that certainly puts you out of contention for the "9s & 10s". In fact, why should you be in contention when you have relegated yourself to the bottom rank of minimally female-competent men. Your cliche use of rehearsed over-the-top openers and slick tricks hardly makes you worthy of the most desirable women. Get real.

3. You may not be slaying 9s and 10s - but someone is. That person may be better dressed than you, they may have more money, they may be a superior conversationalist, they may have an established social circle which grants them access to an inordinate amount of fine women, they may be locally-famous, or unfathomably charismatic but there IS something that distinguishes them from you. There is a reason why you are not in their position of success with women and/or life. Determine what that reason is and make demonstrable steps to improve yourself. Do not blame it on your city, your job, your friends and especially do not blame it on the pervasiveness of feminism in the western world. Why? Not because feminism does not exist, but because others are triumphing despite these obstacles while you have succumbed to adversity - content with slamming 5s and 6s. If you do not like your condition, change it.

4. I challenge our community to push for self-innovation, with the ultimate goal being the maximization of our capabilities; our potential as men. In this moment when you have exhausted all your energy,: when you have sought the knowledge for your improvement, when you have analyzed your past failures, admitted your shortcomings and strived in the enhancement of your being - then and only then, should you consider external factors as being the mitigating component behind your lack of success. I fathom most of us will never reach that point.

Reads as though a frustrated woman wrote it and tried to disguise it with some forum lingo and a "self-help" theme.

Ace-King of clubs is known as a beta blackjack in the card world. That's probably why or he's a banned member.

This was a very very good post indeed.

Shame.

I agree with this post for the most part. Esp. #3. It's easy to blame your city (I've done it), but there are hotties in pretty much every city and someone is banging them. However, to be fair, while I think #4 is well-intentioned, it reminds me of a comment I read on a ROK article: " The reason I don't like 'game' is because it's about improving men without improving women". It does create an arms race scenario. Overall though, this post was good, calls out the entitlement that you sometimes see in guy's posts around these parts. The world owes us nothing, not even tomorrow. Think the OP should at least get to explain himself.
