So over over the course of a few days, certain things just clicked as I fell into a more natural yet far from developed game. I noticed one particular aspect at work when it comes to gaming, hopefully I will dispell some mis-information and help the community, and focus my thoughts onto one specific catagory : Attraction.
Firstly this was all observed in an all asian kareoke bar where I was the only white guy, talk about out of my comfort zone. Just a way i'm trying to escape the plague of comfort, but without further ado, lets get to the content.
Components of Attraction
There are several components that affect a girls attraction towards a male, they can be seen working in the Attraction Model:
Attraction = Physical Attraction + Project Attraction -+ Approval + SPAM
Physical Attraction can be broken into three segments.
- Physically Good Looks, Personal Grooming, and Sexuality
Physically Good Looks is what you are naturally born with, a strong jaw line, nice eyes, and an overall attractive male. This is a static component, meaning that you can't adjust it, and it will always play an impact in determining Physical Attraction.
Personal Grooming is the most changeable component of Physical Attraction. Personal grooming encompasses hair styling, clothing style, and facial hair. This is everything a person CAN change about themselves to appear more clean cut to a woman. Changing clothes or shaving off a beard can increase a woman's attraction towards you as it relates to Physical Attraction. An example of Personal Grooming is when you look at a woman in jeans she might not look so hot, but if you put her into a nice dress, she might attract more masculine attention.
Sexuality is a touch component to understand, but I feel that it is a strong part of Physical Attraction. Its the way a person touches you, or walks around the room, but you can't place your finger on it. Sexuality is similar to lust. The best example I can give is that when you stick an average looking girl into lingerie, she suddenly becomes more then average. (If anyone wants to add to this, please let me know)
These 3 components all contribute to the Physical Attraction component of Attraction.
Project Attraction is a simple component to understand. Its the way a male projects themselves to other individuals and most importantly the female. This can take the form of confidence, stronger body language, leader of a group, personality, enthusiasm, ability to make a girl laugh, ability to hold an intelligent conversation, ability to entertain when necessary, and voice. These are all things that can change but are important factors that, combined with physical attraction, help develop overall attraction.
Approval is an interesting and complex component to understand. This is the only component that can decrease your overall attraction. Approval of friends, family, colleagues, and society plays an important role in influencing attraction a female has for a male. The best way to understand Approval is if you stare at a girl, you think shes good looking but you feel as if you have seen hotter girls. Your friends and family all comment that she is absolutely gorgeous, and when you look at her for a second time you "realize" that your family and friends were right. Social Proofing and Pre-Selection are all sub divisions of the approval component of Attraction.
Lastly
SPAM can be used as a factor to determine attraction. This can never negatively influence attraction (unless your at a strip club) but often leaves a neutral impact on a females attraction for you. SPAM can help a female develop attraction for you based on where you are at the time that you are with her. If you meet the female at a mutual hobby convention, or at a library, ect, it shows an emotional connection or emotional side that she can observe to immitate the feeling that she knows you on a deeper level. Another way SPAM can be used to build attraction is at a bar/party, where everyone is hooking-up with each other. The SPAM forces attraction of you onto her so she can fit in better with the other attendees. Although a lesser component, SPAM can be used to increase attraction that leads to a long lasting relationship.
None of these components can be a negative number but approval. Each factor influences a womans overall attraction for a man. By understanding how attraction works, hopefully the community will see stronger results in their game.
P.S. Can a moderator please move this topic to PUA lounge, thank you.
