How popular is "Game/Pick Up"?
I've been living in an echo chamber where all my friends have been into this movement, but one thing I've realized is that many were starting out in their lives( College or Post college). Therefore, it seems that other types of dating(like SD dating) would not be available to them.
I wonder what the average America/Canadian/Brit whose slightly older does? Imagine someone who works at a law firm, says, "Paying for sex or using the money for sex is stigmatized ,therefore, You know what I am making 100k a year. let me spend my money on dating coaches, self-help and going 7 nights at week clubbing."

Being stupid and indiscreet is stigmatized. Paying for sex is something that a lot of guys who don't or can't would like to know how to make happen. Problem is, doing it wrong can easily get a guy looking stupid and indiscreet.
Great response.What I'm trying to get at is that online it seems that most guys are obssesed with looks and game. Almost no one brings up money and status as good for getting laid. So I was wondering how the average or above average person would approach this situation.
It sees that is mostly a young men game and those some of those guys are getting ripped off my dating coaches.
How does someone who's had an account on TUSCL for over four years genuinely think that? It's pretty much a daily topic of conversation on the forums.
nothing groundbreaking and it's a rather old way of meeting women. but it's better than doing online singles e.g. POF, MATCH.COM and the rest of the usual suspects. just have to have the not expecting it to happen mentality and patience.
Proper financial management, that's how.
I've read "The Game" and its brethren, and have found some of it "works" sometimes, under some circumstances. Mostly around being confident, opening up conversations, escalating with intent, etc. Some of the more negative aspects - e.g., negging, being a jerk/bad boy - aren't what I'm about, so I leave that part alone.
I agree with earlier posters, that "Game" has decreased some in popularity, but again, as with most fads/systems, some remnants I think, find continued interest.
In my view, a guy either has the confidence and the rap to chat with girls, or he doesn’t.
I think these “systems” just put more ideas in a gameless guys head - and those gameless guys then have more to think about as they sit and stew over how to talk to the girl they want.
It’s like those pheromones ads - where you just spritz yourself with the cologne - and girls will be jumping over each other to get near you. They are used by the dude with the members only jacket - the comb over - the acid washed jeans - and the shirt unbuttoned below his balls - and he doesn’t understand why he’s not fighting girls off.
It’s simple - try to not be a creep - take a shower - brush your teeth and hair - and make nice conversation with the girls. Slipping a few dollars in a g string doesn’t hurt either.
