Excerpted from Mystery Method (and hopefully qualifying as fair use)
Quote:
"Pickup artists have employed a low-threshold decimal-rating system to score a woman's appearance from 6 to 10, with a 6 being an OK-looking girl and a 10 being supermodel hot. We do not rate below a 6. Women may understandably feel it sexist to be privately referred to by a number, such as a 7 or a 9, but sexism is prejudice or discrimination based on sex, not perceived survival and replication value. This is different."
--Mystery Method, p. 34
This nomenclature is used, from what I understand, as a mental stimulant to treat women well (not to put them on a pedestal, but to be humane.) On a 1-10 scale, 6+ is above average. You should make every woman you approach FEEL above average, just for the positive feelings that being around you should evoke.
The "lowest number you're able to sleep with" is a 6. Or an 8. Maybe a 9. The important question should be, "Who do you WANT to sleep with; or kiss; or date; or have a serious relationship with?" The answer will vary from man to man, as will the subjective component of their evaluation of various women. The rules of the game aren't there to tell you what decisions to make (not much anyway). They're there to help you follow-through effectively on the decisions that you make for yourself.
