Julien Blanc gets destroyed in CNN interview

DoYouEvenLift

Lmao @ this loser, suddenly when he's questioned for his actions on TV he does a 180 and tries to play it all off as a silly joke. You can see how nervous and insecure he is because he's not his behind a computer screen anymore, probably just realising he and his business is now going to sh!t. The interview is like a school principal chastising a student lol.

A wannabe pick up artist 'teacher', basically takes money from insecure and low self esteem men in return for teaching them to choke and shove women's heads into their crotches in public

Bad scenes when young fellas need to learn from spazzers like this on how to be attractive to the laydeez.

He needs to learn the gowly technique. Offer them tea at 3 in the morning. No girl will ever turn down tea at that time.

Absolutely horrid little man, total ****ing weasle in the interview. The whole PUA thing is a ****ing scam too, you can bet these kinds of asshats are laughing all the way to the bank. You read some of the marketing guff his 'seminars' have? "Develop panty-dropping masculinity with this rock-solid structure to self-generate the powerful emotions girls crave”? Scientology would be in awe of that kind of bull****.

It is quite cultish. If you've ever seen the film Magnolia: scientology enthusiast one Thomas Cruise plays (very convincingly) the role of an extremely sinister PUA "guru" ("Respect the cock, tame the c*nt!") :eek:

Cruise doesn't write the script, he just says the lines. If he does it well then now you know why he's so highly paid

What has scientology got to do with a film?

Makes me throw up in my mouth. Id say he'd do well , to pick up a cold, never mind a woman.

Both Scientology and PUA acolytes tend to be slavishly accepting, and both ideologies tend towards the evangelically cultish.

Damn pesky reality, not living to up preconcieved notions!
RSD are much more of self-help company and damn good one at that.
There's a lot of hucksters in the world regarding everything (i've been there), but these guys offer an outlet, vast majority of their stuff is free (90% at least) and it's only the very hardcases that opt to pay them anything.

Honest, decent guy from the guy who runs it (if you've ever been through any deep bull**** all it, you'll relate)

This next one came out a month a go and is almost prophetic in how the media run with one running narrative that they fit the facts to as opposed to the other way around

A sad state of affairs that the Playstation generation now has to resort to paying arseholes like that guy to teach them how to approach women since they don't have the social skills. Lads put down the Playstation/X Box and get out of the house,just talk to women.:)

Lol is that how you actually think? You realise that video games are just a hobby and pastime like movies, television, books etc. right? I see where you're coming from but to blame video games instead of the entire technology age is laughable

eviltwin

I think its disgusting how he has taken the Power and Control wheel, a tool used a lot in the support and prevention of domestic violence and rape, and twisted it to suit his own warped agenda. He must have had either a really fcuked up relationship with his mother or some woman did a number on him, his lack of respect towards women is horrible. He's a good looking guy, obviously has a bit of money so he can use that to his advantage, you'd wonder if he wasn't so successful what kind of things he would do.

When you consider he shoved women's faces into his crotch, I really don't want to stare into that abyss.

Has he tried these techniques in the US? Cos that seems like the kind of place where he could find himself with a gun or a knife in his face if he pulled this **** on the wrong woman. I honestly can't quite believe he has never been in a sticky situation due to this behavior.

Some of these PUA guys are ridiculous but it's interesting that the tone directed towards the 'whole PUA thing' when for years you see women's magazines with headlines on the cover 'dress to get the guy you deserve', 'how to lose weight to get that guy', 'how to flirt with your office crush' etc etc and you don't hear any vitriol directed towards their readers of those magazines.

If it was the other way around with women getting this sort of abuse there'd be shouts of sexism with internet campaigns and viral videos.

I love the escapism of a glossy fashion or interiors magazine, and I'm being absolutely honest when I say I've never seen cover lines like those. They're more likely to be 'Drop a Dress Size by Xmas' or 'Are Office Flirtations Worth it?'. Maybe teen mags are different, I don't know.

What I do know is that I've never read anything even remotely approaching advocating assaulting men on the street by forcing their heads on your crotch, or step by step guides to insulting them just enough to damage their self esteem and make them more easily manipulated into sex, or how to persuade them to have sex with you, even if they make it clear they aren't attracted to you.

I guess our perceptions of what constitutes a social skill or self betterment are different.

I think people are over reacting to this. Yes, it's completely wrong to choke women, yes, it's completely wrong to shove their heads to your crotch.

He clearly gained a large ego and sense of power from the money and reputation he was getting from teaching his seminars, and being a "great PUA", etc.

However, tarnishing all men who aspire to be able to pick up women, men who want a bit more confidence with women, etc, is also wrong.

I can say genuinely that I would not be in the (meaningful) relationship that I'm in now, had I not seen and tried out a bit of pick up. It gave me a happier life in general

If this had been someone offering guys advice on how to dress to attract a girl, or how to flirt etc there'd be absolutely nothing to worry about. But this is a guy who telling guys that asian women are easy, to just go out and just grab them by the head and shove their faces into your crotch yelling "pikachu!"

there was a video of him, sadly it's been taken down from youtube, that not only showed him doing this, but TELLING people at one of his seminars this is what they should do. it also showed him grabbing a poor girl working at a 711 by the head, he's leaning over the counter, holding her by the head and kissing her saying in a kinda mocking way "beautiful beautiful" and she's absolutely terrified. This is a dude telling guys "hey, just go sexually assault women lol!"

As I said there's ridiculous extremes, like this guy, which it would be difficult for anyone to support, so he's not what I'm talking about.

I've seen it on here a few times that once PUA is mentioned you get a number of posters who move straight belittling any men who have or would think of using it.

I think there are many more options out there for women to get skills for talking to men, be it from friends, family, magazines, and this on top of social norms that men should be the ones doing the approaching, which already makes the interaction tougher on the man.

Don't get me wrong, women have their social pressures about how they look, their weight etc but there are many, many companies 'laughing all the way to the bank' looking to capitalize on this. You however don't see the same vitriol posted about women looking for advice on these aspects, even if for many they have the same end goal of finding a partner.

There are very few cynical systems that utilise manipulation geared towards women. Comparing learning about trying to look better with the kind of dehumanising and exploitative methods espoused by PUA 'coaches' isn't really comparing like for like.

PUA is about mind games, women who try look better or lose weight aren't manipulating anyone.

smurgen

I just don't see the point of this crap.I'm sure it could work in the short term if you want a ride or something but the key to a long relationship I'd imagine in actually building one another's confidence and not using petty trick to undermine.also putting a woman's face into his crotch? What a dickhead,that's pure Larry Murphy behaviour.
Sort out your own confidence instead of bringing others down to your level.also you really have no idea what crap some people have going on in their lives so I'd ignore scripted put downs and conversation templates like this fella seems to peddling.

You go to a bar at night and every part of a woman's appearance could be fake, make up, fake tan, massive wedged heels, push up bra, dress using angles to mask their shape etc etc. That's straight up visually manipulating men by women and it's a massive industry. Just because one's visual and the other verbal it doesn't make too much difference (again I'm going to get ahead of the responses by stating I'm not talking about the extremes of PUA).

wexie

I have to admit that I'm somewhat confused. I've a bit of experience in my younger years (admittedly some time ago) with getting into a few panties here and there (perhaps more than a few) and in my experience the key was ALWAYS and WITHOUT exception in making a woman/girl feel good about herself.



And as far as I'm concerned pushing a randomers face in your crotch should immediately be followed by a headbut in said crotch. No exceptions

Make up makes a woman feel better about herself, pua techniques make her feel worse...Targeted lowering of anyones self-esteem is abhorrent.
