I should hope the author would not consider penning a severe and detailed criticism of a body of work without having read it. This part is not hypocritical, but admirable.
The portion with which I find fault is the inherent sorites paradox: At what point does optimizing yourself and your interactions with women for attraction become unethical?
- nopassrecover 17y agoAt which point would a woman optimising herself for interactions with men become unethical? (answer: never). Presenting yourself as the best you can be to those you are attracted to is one of the most basic purposes we have on this world.
- pbhjpbhj 17y agoSo there is nothing wrong with cheating/lying as long as your goal is to have "interactions" with a partner?
- nopassrecover 17y agoHow dare you misrepresent me. Where did I say cheating or lying. The parent was discussing your presentation.
- chasingsparks 17y agoConsidering the entire culture revolves around sleeping with women in a more or less disposable fashion, probably the day after you realize it works.
- stcredzero 17y agoVery insightful. So much of our culture glamorizes this sort of manipulative conquest, it's reached the point where it's some sort of deep insight to realize such chicanery is wrong! When I think about this sort of thing, I start to wonder if the religious right doesn't have a point.
- chasingsparks 17y agoWere you being sarcastic? I'm not trying to sound like a dick, but I truly can't tell. (I would have asked in a private email, but you provide none.)
