I'm running BASE but I still have very much an increased dependence on females; more than what an alpha should. I perceive a lack, but there's a lot more priority on financial independence than females. Hehehe I admire the other guys on BASE, for the reasons you mention. One day I will get there.
With that being said, I agree with a lot of what you are saying, which is why I largely stopped following people in the attraction subs, but everyone is just where they're at in their journey and I try not to let the BS affect me. When I first came to the forum, where was I at in terms of alpha? Slim to none. Even after am6 and sm3 ( which does have continuing alpha training to some degree, I believe), I wasn't all that alpha- at least not even close to the level I sense some people like Shannon to be, who never once displayed any sort of post that seem they are trying to prove something ... but that's just my opinion. Point is, it takes a lot of work to be truly self actualized, and you can't blame people for thinking they already are where they want to be, especially when a display of trying to prove something to others is a direct reason that what they're proving is false. So just give them permission to be imperfect and move on .
