Jack, your site and vids are well produced; kudos. However, you seem to be getting a little arrogant these days; you might want to tone it down a little. If you're good, your vids will show it. You don't have to beat us over the head w/ it.
I WOULD like to see some vids where you approach 9s or 10s (most of the girls I've seen in your vids are 7.5s at best, except for that sexy little thing in the bikini on the beach). I'd also like to see something more than a #-close; how about a kiss-close, or club bounce (f-close might be asking for too much).
On the subject of PUA methods, the only true way to determine if a method works is to test it scientifically. (I wish I could go back to University to do a thesis on it...) But that's probably never going to happen, so arguing whether a particular method works is mostly pointless.
I do believe in much of the theory behind Mystery Method. It is based, not on tricks or gimmicks, but on the application of evolutionary theory to social dynamics. Everything about our nature is determined by evolution, so it makes sense that the application of that knowledge can give us great insight into the motivations of sexual attraction.
I think you're following MM more than you realize:
- You select a target
- You open the set
- You engage the entire group, not focusing on the target
- I've heard you tease the target (neg)
- I've seen you turn away as if to leave (false time constraint)
- You talk about random crap (comfort building)
- You touch a lot (kino)
These are all principles of MM. You don't have to know you're running a particular method for it to work.
Do I believe you need to follow a method to get laid? No, but I do believe many of the the community's methods and principles can greatly accelerate the process. Mystery lectured at MIT on social dynamics; you have a website and some #-closes on vid. Show some respect.
You also seem to neglect one huge point: you're an attractive guy. (No, I'm not gay...anymore. jk) If an attractive guy approaches many women with confidence, THAT GUY IS GOING TO GET LAID...A LOT. Dig that Chris guy out from wherever you buried him and send him out w/ that "be yourself" crap; see how well he fares.
And BTW I'm not insecure, and don't give a shit if you believe it. People can disagree w/ you for reasons other than insecurity.
Also, despite the overall negative tone of this post, I think overall you're doing good work here. Keep it up.
