Attraction switches

When we talk about attraction switches we are getting very technical but if you really want to get into pick-up as a hobby and want to get advanced then I think its important to look at them.  The purpose of attraction switches is to use them to your advantage by demonstrating them to the girl your interested in.  This can be done by literally demonstrating them or embedding them into your stories. Anything that you can demonstrate in real time will be much more believable and powerful compared to embedding them into stories.

There are many different switches and traits that make a man attractive.  We could debate specifics all day but I think these are the major important ones:

Leader of men

Being the leader of other men is a hugely attractive trait.  This can be embedded through story telling and demonstrated by how people react to you.  Think of the old community idea of being the alpha man. Being the center of attention would also fall into this category as well as being able to hold court. Lead the men and the women will follow.

Protector of loved ones

This attraction switch would mostly have to be embedded but it is extremely powerful when demonstrated too.  Many girls want a strong man to take care of them and stand up for them at times weather they will admit it or not.  If you ever protect a girl when some guy is getting violent with her she will never forget it.  Being the protector carries a powerful effect.  Use it wisely.

The article was interesting, but fairly superficial – it did not get into specifics of how exactly they believe the brain is being rewired.

Now I am totally in the “digital native group”. I’ve been on computers all my life. I wrote my first program in BASIC when I was in first grade. I’ve been downloading MP3s since 1998. I played the original Warcraft before it had it’s own world.

And yeah, I do believe that technology is pulling away the younger generations (below 30 years old) from developing core social skills. It’s reasonable to think that if someone spends less time with people in social settings they’re going to have less social skills and less “street smarts” than someone who spends plenty of time in social situations. That’s a no-brainer.

On the other hand, I think that any “re-wiring” of our brains [Click to Continue Reading…]
