Heartiste's Opinions

Seduction Are double standards acceptable in dating? Agree You hear it all the time from people who are getting shafted by reality. “It’s so UNFAIR that guys get to do X with impunity while girls doing X suffer social stigma.” [Others,] when called out on their inconsistencies, deploy a swarm of sophistry intended to obfuscate and deny the existence of double standards because they are beneficiaries of them. ... The truth of the matter is ... double standards are fixed features of life as a sexually reproducing social organism. Edit Pitches 13 Apr 2007    Source Feminism Is a woman a 'slut' if she has one-night stands? Agree The same goes for sluts. A man who sleeps with many women gets high fives from his buddies and sexual interest from girls who can’t help their burning loins. But girls who sleep around are socially ostracized, used by men and shunned by women. It has always been and it will always be as long as a woman has 400 eggs to a man’s nearly infinite number of sperm. The Nature is Nasty Pitch   Edit Pitches 13 Apr 2007    Source Are pickup artist strategies misogynistic? Disagree Most women, and some men, believe that the bitterness and misogyny of beta males accounts for their failure with women. That betas are their own worst enemy. It is a common human compulsion to want to believe that the tortures of the sexually damned are self-inflicted — unlike poverty or gender discrimination, the first instinct of the moralizers in matters of unequal distribution of sex and love is to blame the victim. The Hypocrisy Pitch   Edit Pitches 30 Jul 2007    Source Has feminism gone too far? Agree I will now present to you a vision of hell as dreamed up in the minds of the man-hating women who litter internet toilets like Feministing... This is what the world would look like if feminists had their way. Man Tax, Thought Crimes, Ban on Porn, Ban on Sexbot Research, Ban on Foreign Brides, Mandatory Castration for Crimes Against Women, Rape = Death Penalty, Better Pay, Legalized Polygamy, Ban on DNA Paternity Testing, Sexual Harassment Laws Expanded. The Name Calling Pitch   Edit Pitches 28 Oct 2008    Source Are women misleading when expressing what they want from a man? Agree CR Maxim #57: Never trust a woman’s advice on how to please women. Her advice is designed for alpha men she already finds attractive and from whom she seeks signals of attainability and commitment. Corollary to Maxim #57: A woman’s sex and relationship advice isn’t meant to help men; it’s meant to distract men from what really works to turn women on. Edit Pitches 24 May 2010    Source Science Are pickup artist strategies effective? Agree With game, [a man] can afford to slack off a certain amount on the traditional attractiveness measures. In a sense, game is like an extra 5 inches in height or $100K in salary — it gives a man a big leg up in the mating wars. Edit Pitches 29 May 2007    Source Is honesty the best policy in dating? Mostly Disagree In seduction, honesty is not the best policy. A man learns from experience to conceal some of what he is thinking because no matter how much a woman says she wants to know his true feelings, she would rather not. ... Now I don’t advocate lying. There is a middle ground between complete candor and bald-faced lies. Massaging the truth is the best way to describe it. ... The fact is, there would be very little hooking up at all if men decided en masse to be totally honest with women. Edit Pitches 07 Sep 2007    Source Do pickup artists underestimate the diversity of women's personalities? Disagree Roissy Maxim #33: NO girl wants to be thought she isn’t a special little snowflake. Use this thermal exhaust port of female psychology to your advantage. But be careful how you deploy the generalization bomb — its mindfuck megatonnage can blow up chicks’ heads like scanners. There are two ways to laser-guide a generalization straight into the beaver bunker. [Exasperation and Reverse psychology] ... Watch as she spins her wheels trying to prove her uniqueness. Edit Pitches 07 Oct 2008    Source Psychology Does a crying man necessarily convey emotional weakness? Mostly Agree ...one tear and one tear only is allowed. Anymore, and the line is crossed into blubbering. ... When that tear falls he should be looking solemnly into the far distance, as if his one tear were pregnant with so much philosophical profundity the world isn’t worthy of his expression of sadness. Edit Pitches 15 Jun 2007    Source Philosophy Can we handle the truth? Disagree ...could women handle being told by men that dinner was on them only because they think this will buy them a titty fuck? Or that all they can think about when she is blathering on about crystal therapy or her non-profit job is what she looks like naked and what it would be like to make love to her all night long? Let’s be honest. Honesty falls in the category of those values we all say we want from others, but really don’t. Edit Pitches 07 Sep 2007    Source Ethics Are pickup artist strategies morally acceptable? Mostly Agree Technically, I should feel some guilt. If we define the prime marrying years of a woman to be between 21 and 26 ... then I have squeezed the juice out of the ripest years of quite a few girls. ... The next beta in line will be stuck marrying the rind. ... I take a philosophical view of my biological thievery. ... [Consider] what guy with bloated testes hasn’t heard this from a girl he really liked: [let's just be friends]. Therefore, my actions are helping to bring balance to the force. The Two Wrongs Make A Right Pitch   Edit Pitches 08 Oct 2007    Source Is hypocrisy acceptable? Disagree Hypocrisy costs mental energy, and when incentivized enough and fully internalized can lead to bad decisions. The few who can look the chaos in the eye and not flinch will best those whose ego-assuaging lies act to divert them from the path of personal happiness. A downwardly spiraling feedback loop can result when hypocrisy is allowed to run rampant, as one bad decision after another coaxes ever more contorted pretty lies... Edit Pitches 26 Apr 2010    Source Education Does the media distort our perception of beauty? Disagree I was always amused by people – especially women who seem to have a universal knee-jerk distaste for the idea that beauty can be measured & ranked – who believed that culture, or the media, or Hollywood, or parents, or peers, or the magic nose goblin, were somehow responsible for what gives men boners. The religion of cultural conditioning is as cultic as any organized religion. It has many adherents because, like traditional religions, it appeals to false hopes and placates with soothing lies. Edit Pitches 27 Nov 2007    Source Should pickup artist strategies be considered good education? Agree That’s one of the things that pisses me off about all these people coming out about “natural game”. 95% of “naturals” are just good looking dudes that girls want to f***. They have always been good looking and women have been approaching them for sex and dating. ... These men [unlike me] can’t teach you anything. Because they never learned anything. It was handed to them. You see, like girls, very good looking men rarely have had to develop an actual personality (the key to pickup). Edit Pitches 15 Oct 2009    Source

Religion Is there a Law of Karma? Disagree Live by a fluid code of ethics. There will be those times when acting unethically will be personally advantageous and relatively consequence-free. In these cases the guilt won’t last more than five minutes. ... Stop living your life as if karma will reward you for your goodness and smite your enemies for their badness. A mystical moral payback system does not exist. Edit Pitches 02 Jan 2008    Source Is abortion morally acceptable? Agree Why I Love Abortion: 1) Abortion is a handy dandy escape hatch for men. 2) Abortion is eugenic 3) Abortion is the cure for what ails ya ... (I have nothing but seething hatred for those parents who willingly allow the births of babies with torturous afflictions). 4) Abortion will spur anti-aging research. 5) Abortion keeps a woman’s body looking hot. Edit Pitches 04 Jun 2008    Source Is revenge OK? Agree Don’t let anyone tell you revenge is the instinct of the weak. They’ve just never experienced its sweet deliverance. Edit Pitches 12 Aug 2008    Source Does life have a meaning? Mostly Disagree When there is no second life or higher power to appease; when our lives are machines — complex misunderstood machines cunningly designed to conceal the gears and pulleys behind a facade of self-delusional sublimation, but machines nonetheless — grinding and belching the choking gritty smoke of status-whoring displays in service to our microscopic puppetmasters [...then one must rationally embrace hedonism]. Are you prepared to embrace the meaning of your ultimately inconsequential existence? The Nature is Nasty Pitch   Edit Pitches 04 Dec 2008    Source Democracy Is politics a waste of time for ordinary citizens? Agree Jettison politics from your personal life. Jawing about political ideology is worse than useless — it’s a time suck and a trick played by your status-seeking reptilian hindbrain on your frontal lobes that does nothing to bring you more happiness OR status. Your vote really won’t matter. Don’t believe me? When was the last time a significant election was decided by one vote? Edit Pitches 02 Jan 2008    Source Should women have the right to vote? Disagree The worst thing to happen to America was women’s suffrage. Naturally, changes on this scale don’t happen overnight. There was a store of good will and optimistic future time orientation bequeathed us by our beta male forebears — the men of the 19th and 20th centuries who built America into the hyperpower that made France shit its knickers — that will take generations to dissolve into the watery gruel of transnationalist solipsistic hedonism. ... We are going the way of Rome. Edit Pitches 01 Jun 2009    Source Politics Should the federal government ban gay marriage? Mostly Agree Besides the slippery slope argument (which I believe is a legitimate one in this case, opening the door to polygamous arrangements), gay marriage undermines the procreative justification for marriage. Western companionate marriage is as much about kids as it is about love. Scrap the one reason and it’s harder to justify getting married for the other reason. ... Now personally I couldn’t care less if gays get married... this post is a primer for society, not for my own hedonistic pursuit. Edit Pitches 10 Jun 2008    Source Is the case for anthropogenic global warming politically biased in its favor? Agree Anyone who believes scientists can’t be tainted by bias or corruption has a weak grasp of the constancy of human nature. Science is humanity’s Savior. I don’t want false prophets like Hansen as representatives of our last, best hope. I predict that in ten or twenty years when the dust has settled and the truth of AGW gets a more reasonable hearing than it has to date, we will look back on this sorry episode as one of the greatest attempted swindles ever foisted by the global elite on the masses. Edit Pitches 22 Nov 2008    Source Evolution Is the model of human nature used by pickup artists accurate? Agree Game was birthed in the twin crucibles of the feminist-inspired sexual revolution and the teachings of evolutionary psychology. As women have become more hypergamous, betas, feeling the pinch, have become more dedicated to learning the crimson arts. Some alphas looking for even more edge ... [discovered] a bounty of no-strings-attached pussy the result. Women call this manipulation, but in fact it is just the same old reproductive arms race, this time with laser-guided cock bombs. Edit Pitches 23 Jul 2008    Source Did complex life evolve through the process of natural selection? Agree ...manipulation and mate choice go hand in hand. I propose, as an extension to [Machiavellian Intelligence Hypothesis], that the absurdity of mid-20th to early 21st century feminism and all its adjuncts are better understood as progressively sophisticated emergent sexual selection strategies which act as social obstacles to filter out men who aren’t able to successfully navigate them. Edit Pitches 06 Oct 2009    Source Is status seeking a good explanation for much of our behavior? Agree Since women are incessantly driven by their genetic algorithm to seek a higher status mate than themselves, they will respond to culturally imposed shifts in mate quality by evaluating men based on whichever attractiveness traits signal the men’s higher status. Edit Pitches 05 May 2010    Source Law Is marriage a good thing? Disagree Marriage is a social mechanism designed to exchange sex for indentured servitude. So why are women now the eager instigators of divorce? What changed in the culture? Four things, primarily: the pill, easy divorce, women’s economic independence, and rigged laws that make divorce a good financial prospect for women. ... All the positive loving benefits you can get out of marriage can also be had within an unmarried relationship. Edit Pitches 14 Jan 2010    Source Should paternity testing be mandatory? Agree Feminists want to retain the privilege of cuckolding. It is a power too good to abdicate, because it offers complete freedom from compromise with men to pursue sex and resources in the way they want. Paternity testing will mean an end to fucking alphas on the side and tricking betas into footing the bill. It will mean women will have to be more responsible and forward-thinking, instead of blindly following their vaginas. Edit Pitches 01 Nov 2010    Source
