This blog operates under the assumption that getting a girl validates a teenage boy's existence. The vast majority (over 99%) of teenage girls are shallow idiots when it comes to choosing a guy that they can actually spend the rest of their life with. How does earning the affection of someone like this make you a good person? Some of the nicest guys I know don't have a girlfriend. Personally, I'm not really looking for one. I'll just wait until the women my age grow up and stop looking for douchebags.
I'm exactly the same way. I feel like girls at this age don't really know what they want.
But, I'm heading to college in August. If it's really a place to grow as much as they say, hopefully things will change a bit.

Exactly. Melo, we're treating teenage girls like objects because most of them act like objects.
I can't say that I disagree with this. I still don't think it makes it okay (who would've thought?), but to an extent you're right.

Oh dang...I think there's a balance here. I mean, most teenagers don't date someone thinking "can I spend the rest of my life with them?", they start dating someone because they have an emotional and/or physical attraction to the person and they want to learn more about them. And I think that starting with those feelings, with some basic attraction and some common interests is a good thing. And can someone get to know someone like that and determine they want to spend the rest of their life with them? I think so.

Honestly, there's only friend I've ever had who I've wanted to slap because of her approach to relationships. She met a guy, determined she could spend the rest of her life with him in less then a month...then changed her religion and dropped out of college because that's what he wanted of her and "he's clearly the one". Now they break up every other month and he's crushed the spunk out of her that she was noted for. So jumping to the idea, "I need to choose a guy I can spend the rest of my life with" can be a bad position to put yourself in.

I'm exactly the same way. I feel like girls at this age don't really know what they want.
But, I'm heading to college in August. If it's really a place to grow as much as they say, hopefully things will change a bit.

I started college last year, its deff a great place to grow and if you have a good personality girls will respond...also college is just awesome, have fun!

Is treating women like an object sexist? Sure. Do some girls act like objects or think they are trophies though? Absolutely, so if they get treated like an object can't really say I feel bad for them. It's when you treat someone with respect and they treat you like an object that there exists a problem.

What's up with people flaming the OP. The three factors presented are not mandatory things every relationship must have, he's simply stating that the absence of those three things does nothing but help your chances (unless you're aiming for girls attracted to unemployed, unfit slobs). Although, granted, clothing shouldn't be that important.

If you get a relationship without meeting any of these things, consider yourself fortunate for finding a girl who likes you for you (as slob-like as you apparently are).

The thread may want to say "If you're a nerd and can't get poon..."

I never said it doesn't exist. I said it's not okay when it does happen.

Honestly, what you described is simply sexism. Treating women as "achievements" is straight up sexist if you ask me, and to deny that or act like it's perfect fine is weird to me. It's just treating a person as an object. But that's not nearly as weird as the fact that I'm getting **** for saying "I don't like sexism." Whatever, if you think it's perfectly fine to treat women (or men, Skyler) as "achievements," fine, but I don't think that's okay.

Exactly, I don't know what the hell is going through Skyler's brain right now, haha.

I can think what I want. I live a happy life, if I chose to be a little more optimistic instead of moping around and only looking at all the terrible things, that's my choice. I have no reason to put on the "ooooh I'm so brooding and depressed" facade. I'm sorry if you can't see the good in things, but please don't try to bring other people down. It makes you look like a ****. If you ask me, you need to stop pretending that everything in the world is horrible. I've never seen you look at anything in a positive light. I understand that you want to give off this whole "I'm so deep and pessimistic" vibe, but give it a break. You can't be sad about everything all the time.


In short:
GRRR RAAAAGE! ME ANGRY AT INTERNETS!
So you're completely ignoring the fact that girls do it too?

You don't seem to understand the idea that social pressures drive people to get girlfriends for the sake of having them. Not having been with a girl makes you a loser, apparently, so boys will try as hard as possible to get a girl to get the Girlfriend Achievement (50 points).

No, they're not treating women as inferior human beings (the definition of sexism), but are rather just trying to pick them up because they feel they have to. Gay guys do it too, being single/completely inexperienced is looked down upon in all circles, are you saying gay men are sexist too? To their own sex? Really?

Boys want their Xbox LIVE Achievement, men have grown out of the need for that and actually care about the other aspects. People go in and out of the different phases in their own way, but for the majority it's just the typical trend of picking up for the sake of it.

And that's just the way it is.

...we're talking about males. Is this a troll attempt? When I say "I think it's not okay when it happens," I obviously mean when anyone does it. Anyone can mean male or female. However, this topic started off talking about males. Apparently I'm being difficult to understand, so I'll make it clear:

I think it's bad when males treat females like trophies. I also think it's bad when females treat males like trophies. I also think it's bad when males treat males like trophies. I also think it's bad when females treat females like trophies.

The rest.
Fair enough. Clearly we're not going to get anywhere with this, haha.
Bottom line: I think treating anyone as if they are just a trophy is a bad thing. Sorry if that thought makes me a bad person.

Which then goes into common sense territory which there really doesn't need to be a thread about. I can practically guarentee that everyone here knows that having money, actually leaving your basement, and not smelling like Rosy O'Donald in heat helps you meet not only women but new people in general.

Never said it wasn't, just saying it's standard practice and isn't driven by a sexist mindset.

Omg Azua you're so sexist for suggesting all women really care about money and receiving presents from their lovers.

You're just like all those other pigheaded men.

From people I've seen around I can guarantee you that there are a lot of people that don't actually know this. Don't take your hygiene, living and grooming habits for granted.

Not necessarily a ton of money but enough to ensure that you can do more than just sit around and watch tv all day. Let's pretend that a guy that you've been dating is jobless and lives with mommy. Say through the grace of god you somehow date him for 2 years. You naturally want to move on the next step but he lacks the money to even get married or move in together.

Lol... I buy my own stuff. I'm already thinking of getting something for my girlfriend and I don't expect nothing back. :3

I mean really, that isn't what I need out of the relationship, but it's welcome.

And I don't take my hygiene for granted. (no way am I gonna smell bad or something) That is important haha. But gifts aren't important. : D

Um, my fiance is jobless while he goes to college. I live with him and his family - that includes mommy.
There are more things to live that are enjoyable and don't cost money. We prefer to go on walks rather than drive to the movies or other crap we're not interested in.

Anything else you'd like to add?

You should probably keep in mind that not everyone is exactly the same. Not all women want what you're going on about.

I seriously laughed hard at the OP. The "tips" it gives for getting a girl are pretty much 6th grade level. As in, this is the kind of stuff most middle schoolers would take to heart and pass along, and when I was in 6th grade, it was cool to pass around your progress report for all of your peers to bask in its failure-laden glory. As in, it has really immature and materialistic tips. As in, I was considered a nerd for the majority of my life by people like you for the simple fact that I wear glasses and pass life. I've gotten wonderful girls asking me out, not because I have teh m00ni3s, or because I'm as awesome as that one bird from "Finding Nemo", but because a good part of teenage girls have at this point in their life seen that I'm going to end up being a better guy in the long run than guys like you.

Sure, you might have a way easier time getting ladies if you look good and have a decent job. But most people who use the word "nerd" in a non-humour intended way, are obsessed with looks, and use money to get girls usually aren't getting really far in life. I'd imagine you're either

a) a thirteen-year-old guy who's drowning in his ego because he plays football and has a girlfriend

or

b) a frat boy who is also full of himself because he just recently struck out on his own into the world and also has a reputation for getting girlfriends

Seriously man, you're not going to go anywhere if you carry yourself the same way the OP suggests.

I'm not in a position to start a relationship right now because I'm focusing on school. From my experience, it's guys like you who prance around from one girl to another in their teens to early twenties that do the worst academically. Oh sure, you might have a great social life, but that's not gooing to help land you a self-sustaining job if your resume says you dropped out of highschool then graduated from a community college.

To put it bluntly, a mall job and your pretty face aren't going to get you good a woman later in life, only toys that will end up living off of childcare after you've gotten them pregnant.

Edit: John actually summed my thoughts up pretty nicely

David DeAngelo actually has a lot of good advice but he's definitely not someone I would hang out with. The guy pretty much radiates douchebaggery like the freakin' sun. I've read some of his work in the past and his hump 'em and dump 'em philosophy irks me something terrible. One of the best out there when it comes to teaching about how to boost your confidence but pretty much a feminist's nightmare in every other regard.

Depends what kinda girl your reffering to, i'm just going to assume you aren't talking about a nerd girl since that wouldn't make since.

Anyways i disagree, alot of women who dates guys for anything BUT personality usually have bad relationships, so it would just be best to worry about you mostly, then all the other crap can come later~
It doesn't matter if she's a nerd girl or not. All girls like swag.

This blog makes the assumption that there is 1 kind of guy girls go for. Anyone with life experience as well as studies show us otherwise. Women have a large diversity on the kind of men they like physically.

Despite this, this blog ignores something rather big. What you are essentially asking men to do is lie about their life style. Is being in shape isn't in your life style, don't change that to get a woman. When you are older, have a job, and have kids, you'll find that these things, which aren't top priority for you naturally, are pushed aside and you become everything she thought you weren't. Do you want quantity of relationships, or quality of relationships? Believe it or not, I've known rather good looking women who were in to fat, bearded slobs.

If you don't believe me, this woman married this man:



You shouldn't lie about your life style any more than you should lie through your words.

@ Indigo Jeans:

Good lord.... I thought Skyler's response was harsh. O_o;
Harsh? That's a laugh. It's the blunt truth.

He really shouldn't have choosen to give out such ****ty and immature advice on such a touchy subject. Especially considering this is the internet for chrissakes.

What, I'm totally serious. Now that I think about it, that must explain why people always seem to move away when I come near. Silly me thinking it's because I don't brush my teeth. Social skills, here I come!

Blunt and harsh are pretty much one in the same. I agree with what you say though but it's still the internet and there's nothing stopping him from expressing what he thinks is true. Besides, I've heard far worse dating advice online. (Chris-chan comes to mind)

That dude doesn't really look like a fat, bearded slob

The first two adj. depend on how you look at it, but I'll take your word for the 3rd
Its difficult to find fat, bearded slobs as celebreties, so I picked a couple that is generally regarded as odd. Yeah he isn't bearded, but he's far away from the kind of hunk the OP is demadning.

I'm going 4th year into college and there are still plethoras of immature girls along with guys. Hell, my friend went from nice kid who was himself to semi-douche on P90X, saying "EEEEXXXxxxxx" at every moment, slightly changing his style to fitted shirts, and saying "Skadoo" when flexing. But they crown jewel, oh ho ho. He read some book that chronicles some guys "hump'em and dump'em" manner (kudos to the person who said this first). Now he advises my nerdy friend to "act like an ***hole" to women. >.> Sure my friend hooked up and has a gf now... but she isn't really choice pick if you get my drift. Also, he has done some things that could give him STDs. Enough said.

Also, I love all the pelican jokes and pics, hahaha. That's my favorite part about this blog :D

Last thing - *waves to Juri* Hey, I'm trying to get better with you, haha.

^Darkshadow, your friend sounds alot like me.

I am very cynical on the topic of love. Women are ****ing stupid.

but if for some reason you want a woman, either:

1) Play guitar. You don't even have to be good. Just learn a few chords to pop music. Just point, stare, and watch them swoon.
2) Play football or basketball. Football is higher on the tier list.
3) Treat them like ****. Make them think you're the only person who will accept them.
4) Be gay.
5) DO NOT BE HER FRIEND. SAVE THAT FOR WHEN YOU SEAL THE DEAL.

Better get cracking, guys.

Seriously. I have a bone to pick with women. I'm attractive, I take care of myself, I work out, and I like how I look and my personality. I've been through alot of **** with women, so anyone who likes me will end up getting played. They probably deserve it anyways. NOONE is getting this. <------ Being borderline asexual (on the straight side.) is just too much fun. I will continue to be until women grow up and I finish college.

I like how boys assume that woman are completely ******** when it comes to love, but really once a man falls for a girl, she plays him like a puppetmaster and this is ALWAYS the case.

Guys are actually more ******** when it comes to love, women are just stupid at the courtship stage where it doesn't really matter.

Sorry guys but it's Girls 1 Boys 0

Edit: John actually summed my thoughts up pretty nicely
First off you don't know me so don't talk like you do. i may need to put this in the OP but here's why you shouldn't make assumptions.

In high school I lettered in football and track, was president of our chapter of national honors society for four years, a very active member of our health occupations students of america (HOSA) for four years with my last 2 years serving as a regional president and competed in my event of choice on a national level 2 years as well, held a part time job for 2 and half years, graduated number 10 in my graduating class, scored a 1300 on the SATs and was granted a full scholarship the college I attended.

In college I majored in Biology, was an active member of SGA for four years, participated in the honda campus all-star challenge three years (quiz bowl style competition), played in the intramural basketball league for four years, held a job working at least 30 hours for 3 years, graduated magna *** laude (high honors) with honors in english and history, took a year off after graduation for personal reasons but now I'm starting graduate school in the fall.

So when you refer to "people like me" don't be surprised if someone gives you a response such as this. I'm not a douche or a tool. I have a very intellectual demeanor and never talk down to anyone without being provoked. You sir have provoked me. Try actually graduating high school first ya ****. Then we can talk business.

In short, get *****. You make terrible assumptions because you're not understanding the scope of the blog anyway. I'm not asking anyone to change their "style" but simply not to look like as much of a slob. Working out may be a stretch but even the pictures of the "slobs" posted are still very neat and refined in their own style. You don't have to change your personality to get a girl but refining your looks can only help. You don't have to buy ed hardy shirt and say "eeeeeeeyyyyy" all the time to be cool. Its just much easier to get a woman when you're properly groomed and don't smell like ****.

It doesn't matter if she's a nerd girl or not. All girls like swag.

My definition of swag: Confidence, ability to be yourself with a hint of awesomeness.
I typically don't use the word swag but yeah that helps too. You don't have to change who you are just tweak your looks and you may find things easier.

I don't lie about my lifestyle. I'm a nerd, I like to stay fit, and I like to look nice in my own style. That guy is also far from a slob. He doesn't dress like a tool yet still is refined in his own style, aka THE POINT I'M TRYING TO MAKE.

This blog is typically speaking. Though online dating is reaching untold of heights (10% of married couples have met online) you could still try online dating your entire life and not find a mate. Theres a much higher likelyhood in real life.

Then just say that lol. Instead you go off and act like a douche with things like "the sport of pulling women", like seriously you said in in each of your points lol, not to mention you add in your own personal ego boost "To be honest, I'm fly as a pelican". Also apparently you can't hang out with people who you play games with if they can't "pull women". :dizzy:
