You aren't supposed to take advantage of their damage to have sex with them.
- baddox 14y agoIf someone consents, it presumably means they deem the exchange to be mutually beneficial, so I don't know how you could determine some cases to be "taking advantage."
- andrewflnr 14y agoIf you take advantage of someone's ignorance to sell them snake oil, they may think (for a while) that the exchange was mutually beneficial, but you're still evil.
- badclient 14y agoSo, what precisely is the snake oil as it relates to PUAs meeting women?
- andrewflnr 14y agoThat giving the PUA what they want will make them happier.
- badclient 14y agoWhat specifically do you find evil?
- technolem 14y agoYou. To be more specific if snake oil really did solve the world's problems snake oil salesmen would still be snake oil salesmen. They are trying to get something by convincing others of a thing whether or not it is true.
- badclient 14y agoSo you have a problem with salesmen in general?
- technolem 14y agoMaybe? Anyways I'm mostly commenting on what others may perceive. This is the best explanation I can come up with. I'd honestly rather judge actions based on what happens rather than what was intended to happen. Even if the attitude pisses me off.
- baddox 14y agoIf you lie about what you're selling, then that's fraud.
- andrewflnr 14y agoUm, yes. It doesn't have to be fraud to be wrong.
- baddox 14y agoBut my point is that in the snake-oil analogy, the only reason it's wrong is because the salesperson lies about the benefits of the oil.
- andrewflnr 14y agoThe PUA is lying about the benefits of sleeping with them.
- badclient 14y agoWhat benefits are PUAs supposedly promising and not delivering on?
