9s-10s and 7-8s are different species. you really don't need to neg a 7 and it will usually be counterproductive because they have already been treated bad by people and can see the world for what it really is. If you neg a 7 she will think you do not like and accept her and are seriously trying to insult her and will be pissed off.
A 10 has been catered to her whole life and has never had anyone say anything bad to her and has people falling all over her and rolling out the red carpet for her whole life.
When you neg a 10 it is often something she has never heard her whole life and will wonder what makes you different from all the other guys.
When you neg a 7 it is something she has heard a lot and it makes you the same as all the other guys.
Making gross stereotypes like this will only hurt your game. Because I will guarantee you if you game girls base on this you will have a lower closing rate than compare to adjusting your game to the girl. Because not all 10s are the same nor are 7's. What are you going to do if run into a girl that is physically a 7 but has a personality of a 10? Game her like a 7? Or what are you going to do if you run into a girl that is a 10 that has gotten negs before game her as a 10?
A big generalization yes. And you are absolutely correct in that everyone is an individual and each individual will respond differently based on their character and prior life experiences and history.
The problem is untill you get to know someone to some degree you have no idea what that is and to a certain degree you do go on snap judgements and generalizations. some times you'll be on the money and sometimes you'll get vaporized.
I guess the point I was trying to get at is don't neg 7s. They've been kicked in the teeth and treated bad by jerks all their lives and if you come negging them you'll just look like another jerk. Is that a generalization/stereotype? Yes it is, but it is a good platform to start from and if the individual situation calls for it then you can adjust accordingly.
And just to add in a little of my own unsolicited and probably unwelcome perspective, I really don't believe in actual "negging" at all. I am quite a bit older than most of the people here, and I was just brought up in a time and place you just didn't do that. A little goodhearted teasing and banter is fine to show that you aren't intimidated or going to supplicate is fine and probably even benificial but saying something with the intent to lower someone's self-esteem is just plain rude and boarish where I come from.
The reason I commented on the thread at all in first place was because the question asked was why the results of negging 7s vs 10s was different. I offered my opinion why those different people responded differently. I really wasn't condoning negging anyone.
