Alpha Male 7 6G

[tolgaocal80]

I want to adjust my review of "Double your dating" now in hindsight when I've come across another book related to the topic, which I would argue make a much more genuine impression on how to improve your dating life, namely a book called "Models - How to attract women trough honesty".

To constrast the book:

• "How to become the alpha male" - Goes WAY over the top into details regarding things the author believes is considered "Alpha" and in my meaning sometimes is coming close being border-sociopathic/manipulative behavior.
  
• "Double your dating" - Holds some good advice regarding personal improvement, but still relies on "creating a frame" in the sense of making women feel inferior to you by "expressing your higher value". This is not at all in line with what I've seen in the posts by Shannon, where true attractiveness and strength is not relying on putting someone else down. Also, it's not something I would be comfortable doing, and I have had a voice in my head saying that "there must be a more honest way". 
  
• This brings us to "Models - Attract women trough honesty" - which I would say is the book that is written with the closest way of looking at life and self-improvement compared to what I have tried to withdraw from Shannons and some few members here on the forum posts. Namely, on how to work on yourself to become less needy and more emotionally self-reliant but at the same time being able to express your vulnerability and honesty. This is the core concepts of the book, and I wouldn't say it's the "most perfect book I've read about self-improvement and attracting women", but it does a hell of a good job on going trough the concepts that leads to becoming the "IML definition of the Alpha Male" which I believe has gone into creating the AM program.
  

Even though the next version of AM will not require the user to read any books, I would be willing to place at least one side order of your steak-dinner that you would find something interesting in this book Shannon.

It currently has 4,3/5 average rating by 12 500 readers on Goodreads (and by that being the top rated book with the most readers in the category, IIRC).

I'll attach a quote to give you a preview

“And let me tell you, emotional connections are powerful. Far more powerful than any sort of tactics or tricks you may learn in other books. When you connect with women emotionally, they really open up to you in ways that you can’t imagine, your interactions and relationships with them become these rich and unique experiences that can never be replicated, the sex is far better, and all mind games, flakes and ambivalence goes out the window.

A lot of pick up and dating advice is what I call “attraction obsessed.” It has a constant, incessant harping on being the most attractive/alpha guy possible — usually by employing all sorts of tricks, games, tactics, techniques, manipulation and other falsehoods. Attraction obsession comes from a place of insecurity. It seeks validation. It’s needy behavior and, therefore, self-sabotaging in the long run.

It's not about attraction. She's attracted to men all the time but doesn't sleep with any of them or date them. Women actually don't sleep with most men they're attracted to because they would feel slutty or cheap.
Her feeling slutty or cheap isn't about an "Oh, I put out on a first date," thing. It's not about number of dates, hours spent together, or how many dinners you bought her.
Feeling slutty is about sleeping with a man who doesn't care about her or who hasn’t connected with her. If she doesn't trust you or isn't 100% convinced that you really like her and care about her, then she's not going to do it. And if she does, then she’ll regret it and feel dirty.

I heard a few times this book "Models", now will read it, thanks for book advice

I still think, Shannons "alpha male" idea is not much an alpha male but a sigma male, of course "alpha male" term more known than sigma male and most men will get a clear image of a high value male when they hear the alpha male term. Since alpha and sigma are very very similar to each other, sigma is a more introverted and self-made version of alpha male. Of course I don't know if the AM sub contains a term in it
