Trust me. Everyone was aware of it. The thing is that his advice offered there isn't even particularly bad. But he'd just taken the importance of being confident when hitting on women to a ridiculous extreme. With no self-awareness. My ex found an unattractive cripple introducing himself. She didn't know who he was. His pass was essentially, "I'm worth $30 million. You may touch me. I might fuck you later." Her response boiled down to, "Eww." She was shocked to later find out that his first line was actually true at the time. (This was a few days after https://lwn.net/1999/1216/a/esr-rich.html https://lwn.net/1999/1216/a/esr-rich.html.) But, that notwithstanding, her response remained, "Eww."
