Fashion For The Pickup Artist Pt. 2

(continued from part 1)

There was about a couple of times that I did the peacocking. I did that to see if it worked because I heard that other guys were doing it.

I felt ridiculous when I went out and was totally incongruent with my personality.

But we all know that women pay attention to fashion, and like a well-dressed man.

I noticed that it was in my workout clothes or something really basic - like jeans and a tanktop that some of my best pickups occurred.

At the same time, I'd see muscled-up guys wearing revealing spandex, or super-tight shirts at the club, and women definitely did not respond well to this.

This got me thinking...maybe it's not how much the clothes cost, or how flashy they are...

Maybe there's something else going on.

Actually, there are two things going on, and you must manage and balance these two things.

First, avoid seeking approval from women. You are toast, if a woman can tell you that you are trying to impress her and make her like you.

Women will see you coming a mile a way and put up their defenses if you look like you got dressed with the intention of getting their attention.

You DON'T have to look like a pick up artist.

It's better to dress modestly, and not put too much thought into it.

However, you need to present yourself in the best way you can and not to look sloppy.

This comes back to self-expression.

You now have sense what kind of guy you are, what your "scene" is, what you think is cool.

Never change that.

Instead, develop it, with these simple tweaks.

Wear colors that appeal to your skin tone and hair color. This isn't rocket science. Go to an upscale men's clothing store, and ask someone about this. Or look online.

Next is to make sure that your clothes are clean, wrinkle free and reasonably updated. A woman will not worry about bringing you around her friends.

Lastly, make sure your clothes fit well, meaning, they ACCENTUATE YOUR MASCULINE PHYSIQUE.

Square your shoulders and wear shirts that narrow your waist.

Put on a pants that make your legs look long and thin.

Wear shoes that make your feet look big and well-formed.

Groom yourself - nose, neck, and ear hairs. Get a decent haircut. Shave, or don't, but figure out what looks best and take it all the way.

One other thing...

Accessories should adhere off you loosely, and have a look of a small decoration that says, "yeah, I can fuck."

Make out for your intuition with this one. I don't want to say too much because that's a whole other topic.

Fashion For The Pickup Artist Pt. 1

I am NOT a very fashionable type of guy.

Usually the one who pick out clothes for me is my girlfriend - not for MY benefits...

... so that she doesn't feel ashamed if we go together to the public!

If it were me to pick the clothes, I'd wear a sweats and T-shirt all day, together with an old worn sneakers. It means that I think a fashion as silly.

I can absolutely appreciate the aspect of design and style of fashion. When I looked at the able-bodied dressed woman, her outfits is like of art, and I dig that.

But when a man is "too stylish" I kinda lose respect for him.

Don't get it wrong, a guy should present himself like he means to be taken seriously. A good quality, nice and well-fitting clothes are a fundamental to masculine expression.

But some men take it too far.

The case is, the obsession with "peacocking" in the pickup Community for the past several years.

Hearing that words makes me cringe.

YOU ARE NOT A PEACOCK.

If you don't know what "peacocking" is, let me explain it to you.

A while ago, there was an emergence of routine-based "game," relying heavily on superficial techniques, status games, and over-analysis of social interactions.

I didn't see the value of any of this, and have always gone in the opposite direction.

Major reason is I saw how pretending to be someone other than yourself, and it JUST FELT WRONG saying the routines and joke that the other guys came up with.

The PRIMARY FOCUS of all these strategy and game-playing was to visibly get approval from women, but making them feel insecure and they'd think you were cooler than them.

Think of this bullshit layers in the approach to dating. Not only are you faking your personality because you

a) seek approval (as if women has an authority on what makes man a man)

b) keep the fact that you're seeking approval

c) play games that will make women feel insecure so that they will try to seek your approval

YUCK

To dress up in a really loud, ostentatious way so that women would "notice" you and want to talk to you is a kind of "peacock,". And "peacock" is one of the main techniques in approaching women.

Now there's nothing wrong with wearing a nice watch, or a necklace that has some personal meaning.

I don't want women to like me because of that.

I'm pretty sure a lot of men has seen this approach on TV shows, straining to make sense out of this hare-brained "technique."

It's sad to say that some students of other pickup schools that I've encountered, were not only nervous, misdirected, clumsy, they looked RETARDED.

So I want to make a direct proof when it comes to fashion and approaching women.

There are few pieces of things you need to pay attention to when it comes to your physical looks.

After you have handled this stuff, you should place it out of your mind, and that you shouldn't wait for women to notice you before TAKING AN ACTION.

Before we move on, I have a secret that has to reveal.
