PUAs: An Introductory Post
Pick Up Artists. You may have seen their ilk in movies like The Hitch, Swingers, or Cruel Intentions. The truth of the matter is that such people, those who train themselves to seduce and tame women, do, indeed, exist beyond the silver screen. They’ve popped up repeatedly throughout history in guises like the Marqius de Sade, who managed to seduce many women (and men) into indulging in his ‘depraved’ expressions of art and ecstasy, or like Don Juan, who’s romantic exploits were legendary, and perhaps even real, despite the fictional nature of the character. But…what about the PUAs of today? How do they compare to their mythical and historical counterparts?
Being a PUA myself, my opinion here is both weighted and biased. PUAs, as you’ll learn in the course of this blog, come from many walks of life, and gather, with a single goal in mind: Self-Improvement. Some of these men started as geeks, far more pathetic than you’d even guess at, seeing their current states. Others started out pretty much the same as they are now…just with a lot less confidence. As for myself, well…lets just say that I started as a bookworm, and leave it as that.
But, regardless the reason, thousands, if not millions, have flocked to the idea that, through study, one can mold themselves into a person that they could never have been on their own. They have all become what most men wished they were: Self-Made Men.
Now, all of this has the ring of legitimacy to it, so quite a few may question the PUA’s place in the Liar’s Underground, but I assure you, not only do they hold a place there, but they hold one of the highest: Though liars, scoundrels, and thieves may abound, it takes a lot of work to hold up a liar’s practice as honorable, especially when that practice lies in reinventing the self, completely, and passing it off as the original. As we progress further down the road of ruin that this blog will unerringly follow, we’ll examine this in much more detail.
I’m your host, Lodinkinni, and this has been another post of ‘Social Falsification: Tales from the Liar’s Underground.’ I’ll be seeing you next time when we discuss ‘C-Artistry: A Brief Overview Of The Art’.
