Shannon's Journal Discussion Volume 3

[SargeMaximus]

Please do us all a favor, Sarge. Don't reproduce until you outgrow this level of maturity. This is going to make for some seriously ***** up children, and we don't need more of those in this world.

Lol wow. F*ck you too. That's all I have to say to that.

On this one, I stepped over the line, and I apologize. As I said recently in my journal post, I am out of balance right now and when I am out of balance while dealing with grief, I tend to do and say things that are inappropriate, uncalibrated, and sometimes just stupid. This is one of those times. My apologies.

I appreciate that Shannon, thank you. I did not see your recent journal post. I'm sorry for your troubles. May I also say I admire your ability to keep things from spiraling out of control in this instance.

Agree with DarkXedonias.

I even remember people harping on me for getting sexual with that herpes girl and yet I'm STD free. Not condoning my actions, rather pointing out that if you're careful you will be fine.


As for the fear of "drama". Come on guys, who here is an alpha male? If you consider yourself one then grow a spine and deal with the women as an alpha would. Alphas don't need anti-snipers.

That's like saying "real men don't need safeties on their BFG 9000's!" But I'll tell you, a "real man" has the wisdom to choose his safety and health over "being a real man" to some other guy. Maybe if you find yourself wishing there had been an anti-sniper you'll understand some day.

Maybe, but I'd much rather learn to ride a bike than spend a lifetime on training wheels.

There's a big difference between a safety mechanism and "training wheels". Using the gun analogy again, there is a reason most guns have a manual safety. It prevents a negligent discharge. That has nothing to do with training.

I see. Well, I guess we'll have to see what you decide.

Dealing with "drama" when it comes to women is almost always inevitable and something you'll have to deal with accordingly especially if you're talking about dealing with multiple women which is what I assume most guys. Is it something that would be cool NOT to have to deal with and have supportive women around you akin to what @mat422 said? Absolutely. No doubt...after DMSI has proven it can accomplish it's goals first.

/\ This.

I know for a fact my subconscious (and my conscious, if I'm honest) uses that as a good reason to not execute. Who has time for women and their shit let's be honest. I know I sure don't. But a guy has to get laid, and have children someday (I do actually want children someday). So it comes with the territory.

Also, in terms of what Enki was saying "If only women were like..." he seems to be describing a GUY. GUYS are like that quite often, women are NOT it's just nature.

So Sarge, if you know and admit that you are consciously resisting... WHY USE THE DAMNED THING?!

Am I the only one using it despite knowing I resist? Singling me out again. Triggered Shannon is back ladies and gents.

This is a helpful response, Sarge. I'm asking you why you're using it if you know you are consciously resisting. Consciously resisting is a whole different ball game than subconsciously resisting. Why would you bother trying to use it if you know you are resisting at a conscious level? That's not something you can sweep under the carpet with "But it's my subconscious, and I don't know how to do anything about it!" Consciously resisting is just trying to fail, intentionally. At that point, logic dictates that you are wasting your time, and the question of why you are bothering becomes a valid and reasonable one.

I don't mean I'm consciously resisting in the way of getting up in the morning and saying "I will resist today", what I mean is, most women (99-100% of them) to me are too much trouble/headache to deal with. So I consciously choose to not get involved with most of them as soon as any resistance or shit tests are thrown around.

I guess I'm hoping 1 of 2 things with DMSI:

1. It will be powerful enough to have the women I want keep that kind of behavior under wraps while with me

2. DMSI will help me embrace and learn to deal with it.

It is that specific behavior that is "unhappiness causing" (as well as a list of others) which is why I think the anti-sniper should be removed in THAT (read: "unhappiness causing") regard. As I've said repeatedly elsewhere for anyone just reading this argument: I do not oppose the AS for physical threats, prison, STD's, pregnancy, false rape charges, things of THAT nature. But being annoyed because girls don't use a male communication style? That IS unhappiness causing for ME (as an example, there are more I assure you), but it's not a valid reason for the AS imo. Hope that clears things up for everyone.

It is also why I believe I've done better with 3.2 because it doesn't have the AS and I've actually been trying to interact with more women even after they do shit that irks me (read: always).

Still, I recall you saying Shannon that DMSI is aimed at getting the girls we want to use male communication styles to get with us, which would be great. But I do think the AS is subject to abuse in that regard.
